Same here. I just got on from a bookmark less than 20 minutes ago, but now its throwing up the password roadblock.
Seems like a new problem every day over there lately. Glad I have a new service to use!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I just got in and posted in response to poor Milo (a newbie). Bless his heart he posted a note worried since he tried out Auctiva if Tomas would be mad and nail him to the wall.
I use the "backdoor" to get in.

I'm heading over to work on my auctions.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

PS. Anybody know anything about adding an RSS feed of my eBay auctions to an existing page. I don't want the marketing <blech> html.

I agree. We all can be more professional in our conduct than the service we just left.
How'd you get your personal picture on your profile?
You look so young!

Your link didn't work for me - still got the pop-up password box.
Plus, I was just over there in my Images folder saving all my images to my C: drive, and now when I right-click, I don't get any options to "Save As". I did it last Friday, and I was just doing it this morning until about 5 minutes ago. Now I can't "save as" any of my own images.
WTH??

Well, Gosh...CUHRAAAAZZZY!
I'm so sorry this has happened to you. It's happening to others on other message boards I belong to. For example the members at Auction Seller Motivators who still have paid up accounts through November with SD.

I can still get in though.
I am outta here. Best of luck to everyone!

Well, I can get in there now. I emailed Tomas about it and he replied back "This was a temporary problem with permissions while performing maintenance. This issue has been corrected." which it apparently has.
I wasn't even at SpareDollar and a little beige box popped and asked me for my SD password. Since I no longer belong there, I thought it was bizzare.
I had no problems what so ever getting in since 7:00 this morning!
I tried another users ID and password that was not able to get in and I was able to get in with it.
I think its still a problem with the DNS servers. I have those three ISP that tomas gave out to by pass the problem so maybe that's it

Could be. All I know is more SDers have Im'd me and told me they are done with SpareDollar. This last glitch was the last straw. They're moving to Auctiva, even as I write this.
Tomas must be in a real jam. To raise the price when the product is so far from working. On top of it, he seems upset with customers wanting real answers. As if they're doing something wrong with wanting a realistic committment / timeline for these upgrades. Sad. SpareDollar use to be a great place but like everything else change is on the horizon. And that change is the exodus of many long standing members.

Once he gets the quirks fixed, the new comers will probably take our place.
I hadn't used Bidville in awhile (no particular reason) and got a really nice e-mail inviting me back and mentioning their improvements. I appreciated the e-mail, went and checked it out, and listed a bunch of auctions and bought some stuff, too. I wonder if SD.....

No problems with me this AM.
I REFUSE to use those numbers that Tomas gave out. I will not do handstands to access my own information. <sigh> Just a mess..oh yes it is.
He answered an email this morning? Or was the question answered on the boards?
Anyway...I got the same email from Bidville. I sell a few things a month from there and the kicker is this..I just closed everything out in September. <smile> I'll spend some time putting some other items up this week. It's a nice place, just no sales! And I gotta have sales!
Gotta run, Time to work on Halloween!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Hello fellow former SDers,
On SD I was known as ladybedilia, but here I've changed my name as I've decided to only use my ladybedilia name for my FoundValue business. I'm just finished moving and have decided to make simplicity a key word in my life so I'm getting rid of the "excess" in my life. Deciding to leave SD was hard but this site really works well and it's free, so that's even better. It's nice here so far; just hoping that some of the doom and gloomers from SD don't decide to bring their negativity over here.

I agree. I hope if they do come they change their sarcastic, know-it-all, negative ways.
When people get too out of control or rude I'll step in to make sure everyone is playing nice. I read a lot of message boards and the more users that get on them the more likely it becomes that little clicks begin to form and that ends up leading to bickering. The only yelling I hope to hear on these boards is you guys yelling at us, not eachother. Ok, I dont want to hear any yelling at me either
I'm certain that if things are kept friendly here the board can grow to a pretty good size without those negatives that normally come along with larger boards. If not I dont have a problem disciplining trouble makers through warnings, moderation, and banning if it were to come to that. I'm talking larger issues. I try keep my nose out of the smaller squabbles and let those work themselves out on their own.

That's wonderful to hear. Thank you.

Hey There!
Guess what? On September 8th Someone Googled your eBay ID and came to visit my ME page.
The viewer had searched for you and come up with the link to the Sparedollar Webring that I USED to be on. So hopefully I got a sale because they were looking for you! <wink>
Here's the link:

Glad to see you made it over here.
Take care, Donna

I would like to commend you Tom on one recent discussion you nipped in the bud.
The bullying ranter would've kept on ranting like a dog whose jaws had locked on it's prey had you not locked the thread.
Please note that Tom did not DELETE the thread.
Take care and run the boards the way you best see fit.
Your wish that the community would grow is happening.
Best wishes,
Donna
