Reputation & Rep power

ostly the USA including machines parts and supplies.

Sometimes companies don't reply to our quote requests because we live outside the USA.


Thank you,

For your manuals4me.

Re: Reputation & Rep power

And what about The Netherlands? Curacao is a part of the Netherlands so it must be easy to get machines/parts.

if you speak politely and provide all pertinent information people will help you.

my advice is to ignore rep points. most red cards are for unfair and arbitrary reasons, like yours.

they should be for unscrupulous activity only but obviously are not.

Re: Reputation & Rep power

Thanks for the advice Eric, JR the Netherlands is an option for 220v machines only, we have both 120 and 220v machines on the island and pricing is also an issue considering the Euro vs US Dollar, i am not 100% sure but think the USA is convenient for us taking freigth into consideration.

Thank you both.

Re: Reputation & Rep power

Rep is meaningless, don't worry about it; it is just a number and a PNG file. As long as you post meaningful posts, helping others and asking well formed questions, that's all that matters.

Enabling the option to disable reputation per user would be nice (that function does exist on vBulletin).

Re: Reputation & Rep power

Don't bother. manuals4me also gave me a huge negative rep after I kindly asked for a system software link. I guess, the main purpose might be to sell more PDF files to people who need information.

Keep asking questions and stay polite. If no one may ask for help on this forum (without buying manuals), the entire community will be come useless

There was nothing 'kindly' about your post whatsoever. No 'please' no 'thank you in advance' no nothing.

Re: Reputation & Rep power

Ahh, yes, you're right: Need service manual for xyz. Can you send it to abc@...

I swear I'll ask more kindly in the future as long as you promise you'll wrap those gifts in paper (as you already offered to someone else).

Anyway, there are still people here who do help, even by sending PMs. And guess what? Sometimes people can help each other.

Now come on, I have still a lot rep to loose ... do as you like!

This site is for knowledgeable techs. Most have no problem helping those who help themselves. This is not a manual trade site and real techs don't post firmware openly on the internet. The best way to get help if you are in a place that has limited resources is to explain your situation and someone will most likely PM you and offer help if it involves you wanting someone to give you stuff. We are tired of these post that are "I NEED, GIMME GIMME"

Re: Reputation & Rep power

So you understand. Perfect.

Professional technicians do not beg for their tools, or whine about not being able to afford the necessary tools (which includes manuals).
If you truly cannot afford a one time cost of $12.77USD, pass along the cost to your customer. =^..^=

Re: Reputation & Rep power

Re: Reputation & Rep power

I'll link it up for you.

1. Help other people. This is a community, not a "give me what I want so I can be an a$$" site.
2. Make friends by helping them. They will like your posts and up your rep. (which anyone can do btw, not just manuals4you).
3. Ask friends in PM message for manual or firmware.
4. You could alternatively donate something to this site rather than making friends.
5. Not asking politely, never posting anything helpful, or asking for firmware/software will not earn you friends or a good rep.

FYI:
manuals4you has been known to give manuals4free to those who have helped him out or others out.

Firmware is dangerous in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they're doing. If you never help, we can't tell if you know what you're doing.

We don't like people who ask for software and manuals. When they get what they want we never hear from them again. That's called "taking advantage of people". We've had it happen too many times.

When you stop being a freeloader, we'll try to like you.
