i would really like to bring up my discontent in a recent issue with a Moderator ianho!

The matter is regarding his thread here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/686474


View Full Size

i simply asked him regarding the major differences between the item he's selling with a similar type i've seen else where due to a very large price gap..this morning i found my post deleted and being allegedly accused of 'disturbing' his thread, i quote:

from this issue i feel he is abusing his powers/authority as a Mod and simply removing forumer's post without any question.

what sort of attitude is this, what more being shown by a Moderator..i've seen regular dealers here at LYN with much better customer service!!

Looks like the same issue with goldfries sales.

well TS question seems to be well intended

but dude.. tat guy always remove threads/post that
1. He cannot answer
2. A threat to his worshipers confidence.
3. Threads that he cant understand..

Advice to bring this up in the main forum..
and not here

because this is not a dispute... nor any form of trade has been done

heck i still have 10% warning from goldfries thanks to rainingzero..
and a few others.. because they were offended at being idiots..

and later 20% because i detected bullshit and was warned
funny nobody tried to corrected the bullshit claim or even justify it

thats lyn

lyn moto " We are malaysians.. we talk kopitiam about everything.. no need facts etc"

I'm movin this to the main site/helpdesk.

well said.... its not a spam...its truly from the bottom of my heart...

thx for relocating the thread!

back to the issue, i'm quite new at LYN and nvr thought there would be moderators that would handle the matter this way..

i'm not saying all moderators are bad because in this short time i've seen a few common names with good reputation..

also this issue made me wonder how moderators are selected...i thought they would have to be competent and trustworthy in their duty

Well, all I can say is just wait for ianho's explanation before jumping into anything else.

p/s: Do not generalize.

moderators are not allowed to remove postings on sales threads unless they have an absolutely valid reason to do so. While waiting for ianho's explanation, would you be kind enough to explain why you posted two comments using two seperate accounts one after the other on the same thread?

While you might have had a very good case if you only posted once, i sense you've got something up your sleeve to suddenly post two comments, 7 minutes apart on a rival product using two seperate accounts which we know either both belong to you, or to someone who shares the same PC as you.

Threadstarter pawned!
ianho may have abused his power but you've done the wrong thing too, which is using two separte accounts just to comment on his thread.

what was the question anyway?

To those who are not involved, either you post maturely or don't post at all. We don't need any flame-baiters or jokers here.

Seperate Acount Mean 2 Different Account Right?

Your post brings no good!
Yes!aka,multiple accounts.

What's wrong with you?
I may have made a joke there, but i did point out what se7en said, which threadstarter posted comments on ianho's thread by using two separate accounts.

sure thing, and yes this is a shared pc so my friend (i can even disclose the LYN ID to you in PM if you wish) posted a comment as well..

Product A (sold by mod at LYN), and Product B (sold elsewhere) - both are similar products

i was asking about Product A compared to Product B, my friend later added his experience on Product B..

and i quote:

so i'd really like to know what his valid reason is because i dont see myself 'flaming' or 'spamming' at his thread..

*i sincerely hope as an Admin u would not be biased against any particular side on this matter (coz goodness knows how mods get their status in the first place anyway)

P.S. if u sense i have something up my sleeve, then you must forgive me for saying this..
because i personally think the other party selling Product B is a dedicated site which sells their items internationally..the market is pretty much (actually very much) larger than here on LYN, so why would i be trying to do anything?


p.s. altho this might be a little off topic, i hope someone can enlighten me on the past issue with LYN ID: goldfries? (perhaps in private if you will)

Added on May 3, 2008, 4:27 pmi asked what is the major difference between his product and a similar sold elsewhere because the price difference is quite big...thats pretty much it

Is that mean se7en post not clear. Yang bermakna, post se7en tidak jelas, dan kamu datang untuk menjelaskan dengan lebih lanjut lagi.

I just went back to check on ianho's thread:
"(WTS) Spudz microfiber SLR lens cleaning cloth"

and it appears the whole thread has been removed, can't find it in the forum list and the link on his nickname is dead.

I'd have thought it would be common sense that if two people sell similar items, one shouldn't go questioning the other's pricing in public. Most anyone would see it as an attempt to interfere with his sales.

Wouldn't it have been wiser to PM him instead? You'd have done the same had the situations been reversed.

well to be specific, i'm no expert in micro-fibre cloths...so there was a huge price gap (RM9+ and RM30+) i was just wondering what's diff and that's that.

i dont see why ppl take things so negatively, it's like a paranoia that every moment someone is trying to jeapordise your sale or something..
i mean there are people who do, and there are people who don't..so why jump to conclusions?
