Microstock Photography Forum - General > Microstock Services
MicrostockGroup or internet marketplace
ichiro17:
Its starting to feel like this place is becoming an Internet Marketplace instead of a place where we can share information on microstock and argue about iStock exclusivity.
I don't want to be peppered with photosecrets stupid teleconferences and I would really like it if Leaf could please make a separate area where we can block it from our accounts for those people who want to peddle their 'services' here.
And if they break the rules, I would want the post deleted immediately and the user banned from the forum.
I'm just suggesting this because I'm very tired of seeing this place become a SecondLife for photographers where its just advertising, not good conversation about the industry - and I'm sure that I'm not the only one.

You're no alone ichiro, I feel the same way about the situation, and agree with you, that all of those threads should be deleted immediatly from the forum and the member posting them banned from MSG for good.

the mob has spoken :)
I thought it was a good idea so a 'microstock services' area of the forum has now been created.
if you want to ignore this forum area please go to
Profile > Ignore boards prefrences >
then ignore the boards you want.
but remember that there is also some very useful services amongst the 'spammy' ones
leaf:
some more thinking on this topic...
technically it would be nice to group all services together, an as a result it would be a usefull area, such as paypal, moneybookers, prostockmaster, lookstat etc...
the problem is, is that then people ignoring the forum area would miss all those valuable posts...
ichiro17:
if they are as useful as their peddlers say they are, the reviews will filter through the users, not the peddlers, and word will get out.
Thanks Leaf, I just hope you will be willing to police the situation to make sure no one signs up and abuses other places in the forum for this and they stick to designated area
