By enabling Gold Ambassador on her profile she cuts her market to be even less. Since Meg has recently changed to MG only, I am guessing she is still building her client base. In the end every SP runs a business. To sift through pms to find legitimate messages takes time, time that could've been spent more productively. The pm system wasn't built to handle advanced "email" capabilities, therefore my suggestion to utilise an external app where rules and folders etc can be implemented.
No, I am not on my white horse for Meg, just being rational.

I have sent allooooot of pm's (mostly irritating ones). Know it took the ladies some time dealing with those....besides....a lady can probably say "I am well thank you..and you?" just so many times on any normal working day, before it gets annoying. So I will have to agree with adding some sort of blocking (filtering) function for them ESA. And an apology to all the ladies affected by my messages.

Rational? who foots the bill for your proposed 'solution', ESA, the advertisers or the punters? I certainly don't want to be charged extra on my gold membership because some WG's can't manage their PM boxes. Rational is accepting that like bogus phone calls bogus PM's are part of the process in the WG's line of work it's not nice but that's how it goes, same experience as any other sales person in the world.

Also it's also very interesting that the general forum is used for this type of request and not the ladies forum where Meg could probably build more of a case.

You trying to sound smart without actually understanding the impact on everyone.

She was the one that refered to all none-GM members as freeloaders, and some of these "freeloaders" may be customers or potential customers.

Not a good idee to insult you customers like that if you trying to built a customer base

Actually Bolla, I understand completely. If it costs a SP R100 a month to manage messages more productively, I would bet the business minded SPs will grab the opportunity. Office365 is an example, there is gmail, yahoo, etc... which are free.

Your dismissive attitude is what is wrong with people these days. Suddenly when you think this could hit your gold pocket, you're up in arms. But when a SP says anything about money they're petty...

There's a simple solution to this which has been there for a while, if a punter is annoying on pm you just have to "spam" him then problem solved...

I am well aware of what it costs, you came on this forum throwing jargon like you understood what you were talking about without understanding the impact. You were very specific about outlook365 now you changing your tune. The reality is if its such a big issue let the ladies block PM's and let them get their own e-mail addresses for R100 a month and deal with it from there.

And I will say it again there is a ladies forum but it was posted here instead of where it would get the correct attention.

Ag Bolla, I can only laugh by myself here.
There's no use.

You have a nice day now. Remember to pay your R120 Gold Membership.
