Not a canned repsonse.

Hey, I type in every reply here by hand! I should start saving them so I can cut and paste my answers but for some reason I dont.

PS: this was not a canned reply about canned repsonses

Tom,
Could you drop me an email at your convenience?
Thanks, Donna

(Your non-canned response to my canned response was noted <smile>

Hi Suthern...
just wanted to say hi to you - glad to see you here, calm in the storm so to speak

Ahhh..How VERY kind of you to say.
Thank you so much.
I've been here awhile testing the waters and I'm happy. I'd have been completely pulled out of SD about a month and a half ago...but there were extenuating circumstances.

Glad to see you too!!!!!

Thank you once again for acknowledging me,
Donna

Its me, its me I'm here!

Welcome!
So glad to see your here Danielle.

How bout this up and coming hurricane headed our way? I won't get worried till Thursday or so.

Take care, Donna

It'll be my first hurricane since moving to FL - I'm just a bit north of you, about an hour and a half or so I think.

Any advice on how to prepare, for this storm-newbie?

Thanks and again, it's good to see you and others from SD here

Hey all,

I decided to jump ship as well. Figured no sense in paying just to chat so here I am. Gonna set everything up here so in case I decide to ocassionally do some listing, I'll be ready.

Take care,
Tammy

Hi, it's me, too! It's so easy to use, I've already starting listing. Looking forward to using my custom temps, too. Love the Auctiva templates, so I'm just going to use them for now.

Did you notice how sharp the picture quality is? So much sharper!!!! I love the supersizing!

Welcome!
Welcome!
Welcome!

I have like a million and a half things to do today..but wanted to tell you if you need anything..there are quite a few here. Customer service is excellent and they answer emails/requests for help fast.

Take care and Nice to see you've joined us!

Tammy,

Good to see you here, too!
It's a nice place...and you'll find answers to your questions if you need them are answered.

I've gotta run, cause if I don't...I will be running behind.

Take care, Donna

Hey!
Batten down the hatches! <smile>
I think Hurricane W is heading towards the keys now...but who knows with these things.

Be prepared with flashlights, candles, bottled water, canned foods, sand bags and more. I have a stash in the garage just for hurricane supplies..that nobody is allowed to touch..ever!

It's a learning experience for a new person when we speak of hurricane preparedness. If you are EVER told to evacuate..do it!

Florida is a VERY prepared state and we did well last year during the four hurricanes. Much devastation but they followed every last detail down to the minutest detail. When everything is followed through in the correct order then it gives a sense of order.

Do not be frightened. We'll know more by Thursday..sometimes they lose their way and drift off to parts unknown.

Blessings,
Donna

PS I loved your post in regards to whining..<wink>

Thank you for the welcome! I just sold an Auctiva auction minutes after listing it! Oh my! I think the incredible pics help!

Good luck, all of you!!! Need happy dance smiley!!

Hi. I just crossed over too. My daughter helped with my new templates (what would I do without her?). I love all the features.

I didn't post much at sparedollar, but did read often. Donna, you were nice enough to give me a gmail acct. Thank you.

Hello to all.

Pam

I decided to jump the SpareDollar ship too. I hope that Auctiva does a better job of keeping ahead of the change curve at Ebay.

I really like the template designs that are available here and sold my first Fixed Price listing within 24 hours!

Hi Guys
Another SD defector checkin' in. Thanks for getting the word out on this site. I have been trying it out for a couple of days now and like it really well so far! Glad to see so many familiar names on the boards here.

Sandy

Wow, nice to see so many over here!

As far as Wilma goes, being on the coast I will be watching every update that comes out. One minute its headed for the keys the next its up to Tampa and then makes landfall 10 miles from home instead. I learned that with Charley not to trust the weather. Be preparred!

Well you are right about the almost. If the whole SD gang were here this "Lounge" forum would certainly have more than 8 total topics! Watch out Auctiva!

I do see the support team uses the outages topic and keeps you informed. My biggest complaint with SD was lack of customer support. You just were not informed of issues.
On the surface this site seems more professional with support.

At least if this site starts charging you know you'll get CS.

Love it so far.

When you think about it, the best support was from fellow SD'ers helping each other out, especially with the newbies. Saved owner a lot of time. That was worth the $4.95 alone. Even the best templates were supplied by fellow SD'ers, not SD itself.

Unfortunately, and recently, new referrals didn't stick around because of the bugs and lack of CS. So we couldn't even enjoy credits.

In other words, here we were suppying our own CS, recruiting and training newbies, bringing new revenue to SD, and then being told to pay double with a defective service and no CS.

Then we are told, basically, if you don't like it leave, we won't miss you because it'll give us more rack space for the rest of the customers. We were also told we wouldn't be missed because of the influx of newbies. !!!!
Well, thanks for the memories.

This was from a 19 yr old kid whom we "grew" from nothing, gave our support for over 2 years, brought in the business, gave free advertising, encouraged every day of the week, and now are being told to go pound salt.

Very well put!
There's nothing else to add..you stated it very eloquently.

Customer Service is a BIG plus to me. I want to have my emails acknowledged and answered.

Take care, Donna

Miss Daisy is here too! I have been here a couple of days and really like it so far. Had a small issue involving my posting ID and within 15 minutes had a reply and a solution. That means a lot! I am not listing very much right now but need the scheduling and that has worked out fine. I really like the pictures...well, I guess you can tell that so far I like it! Glad to see so many familiar names.

Hi I'm over from SD too Just dropped in to say Hi! Back to work now need to figure out this custom template problem I'm having.

I also left SpareDollar. Nice to be here.

Hi, I don't know what type of problem you are experiencing. I posted a custom template tutorial in the custom template area. It is at the top of the page. I hope it helps.

How nice of you to post the tutorial. I didn't even know it was there or I'd have been placed it here for the other deserters...errrr..migrators. <wink>

I'm going to look up your posts and see what kind of knowledge I can glean from you.

You took your time when I first showed up to welcome me. That was nice of you.

You're right, CS here is prompt. Imagine we actually get our emails answered.

Thanks Magie...such a pretty name.
Donna

I'm pretty sure I have the hang of it now - converting SD templates to be used here so hollar if ya need help. I've got myself and a friend set up too.

Just post you current template to the practice board and I'll see what I can do.

This offer is open to all my fellow SDer's

BTW in case you didn't know its me, Danielle AKA eCloset, D or FullMoon on SD

You're welcome and thank you, .

Hi again guys!

Thanks to those who posted about preparing for Wilma ...

And it sure is nice to see familiar faces here.

I too am looking for customer support and more stability. I'm troubled by the outage here the other day - but other than that no probs so far.

Well welcome to all the ..uhm .. migrators? LOL I have not met any of you from SD, but I have been trying to convert other fellow SD'ers to here. Managed to get a couple and with the new price hike, there may be more.

Welcome guys and gals, and if you ever have a question or need assistance feel free to ask, I love to help out when I can.

OK now for some strange reason, I have the theme song for Attack of the Killer Tomatoes in my head.

Hi - I also moved over this week and am really impressed with the quickness of response from customer support. Having some problems with the shipping rates part of the templates, but really like everything else. Glad there are some other Sparedollar folks here.

I also just moved over from SD. Like it here so far. Nice welcome from the staff and easy to use site.

I've just shipped over from SD, myself. After a 2-year stint. There! I said it and I'm glad, glad, GLAD! Just don't tell McHale!
