Default Soaring Cafe's Response to Recent Classified Ads Discussion

What policy? Where is this policy described? How do we know that it really exists?



Why is this supposed exclusivity policy NOT clearly stated on Wings & Wheels site along with the other clearly stated "instructions, terms and conditions?" Hmmm?



Nice try Bill but this your thread here basically a nice way of saying I don't like the policy and do not agree with it. We all can read through the valiant attempt at political correctness. Why not say what you mean?



You should immediately take your ad off Wings and Wheels and put RESTORE YOUR OWN AD to YOUR OWN SITE (Soaring Cafe) as well as all the other want ad sites (without exclusivity policies) to make a point. It is pretty weak to cower to Tim's demands and give in to him so publicly. It shows poor confidence in your own product frankly. It is Bizarre.



Stand up for your own outstanding work at Soaring Cafe (especially your own want ads section) and lead the charge away from Wings and Wheels and the ridiculous rumored exclusivity policy and "enforcement" practices.



Soaring cafe is and should be a far, far better place for selling gliders and W & W would ever hope to be. WE WILL SUPPORT YOU! We will support your more friendly and open policy of NO EXCLUSIVITY. The one that you just explained to us that you prefer and embrace personally.



If Tim chooses to cast you (or any more of us out) for not using his site for want ads THEN LET HIM! There are plenty of other people to do business with. His want ads policy (If it exists) is RIDICULOUS. We should NOT ACCEPT IT.

or maybe he's just trying to avoid making unnecessary make enemies in this sport that is supposed to be a "Gentleman's game." I thought Bill's post was tasteful and polite.
