Lost out on being treated? like less than a human? Jesus, if anyone spoke to me like that, especially when offering me a pittance, I'd tell him exactly where the fuck to get off.

You really need to learn the difference between talking dirty, and sounding like complete trash. Maybe you're a nice person, who knows? But you certainly need to start respecting yourself as a woman, because that's fucking shocking.

You don't need to demean yourself to attract clients, it upsets me as a working girl and woman.

And ffs, stop suggesting they talk to anyone like that. I block fucknuts for less.[/QUOTE]

It's marketing by the lady concerned and entirely up to her, it may be an example or an actual offer.
Why is it demeaning if the lady attracts business which I'm sure she will as some punters will contact her, and it doesn't affect you? The moral outrage i cannot understand as its her strategy to gain business. You have your strategy and punters know your'e feisty and will block or will accept being blocked.

Let each to their own ... Woolworths V Pick & Pay v Checkers etc, all advertise differently

The lady can then say she doesn't mind being spoken to like that, she mustn't suggest verbal abuse as an approach to the other advertisers on here. It sickens me that she thinks that that is acceptable.

What I don't get is guys with punting budget more then R3k per month who can't even get a gold membership?

There is a vast difference between 'can't' and 'won't'. I simply don't find that much value in a gold membership. I hope it makes sense now.

Agreed. Plus the payment options are silly. Keep seeing many people requesting gold acounts to be activated in general forum. Not keen on paying for something like tjat if you have to follow up and make requests.

As for the topic at hand. I always plan to have a budget that includes regular punts and keeping a little extra in case a great opportunity comes to my area. Try very hard not to over budget but its tough sometimes...
