PM Proxy Bidding?

[touchring]

Just saw rolf post a new auction for slimming.com using almost the same format as i used for sochi.com?

Yes, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

I appreciate a good, thought out and efficient post format, I hope you don't mind.

btw I also think that timeanddate.com rocks! Who needs to add time zones or worry about summer time allowances etc. btw did you know that they also have a countdown timer? http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcount.html

i'm ok with it, except i think the language isn't that good, language isn't my forte, perhaps someone can fix it.

PM Proxy Bidding?

Then don't post it for sale .. If you put a domain for sale on a public forum and expect people to believe your domain has 'bids' by proxy .. when you had a statement saying not to PM you but email you in your signature just a day or so ago?

I was busy running around, while having a few negotiations going on by pm lately, was worried i might not be able to access pm and reply quickly.

As for proxy bids, in order for it to work, the seller must have certain level of credibility, if not, no one will bid. Of course, mj has access to my pm inbox if any buyer requests verification at any point in time, even after the auction has ended, but preferably within 10 days.

I think the anonymous bid concept can be further refined, maybe installing a script or something to enforce authenticity.

LOL, you want to make me go digging around directly through a huge database with multi-table SQL join commands? Only if absolutely necessary, $50 fee required :-)

No, vbulletin does not provide admins with a way to read other member's PM boxes.

The $50 fee is not an issue if the buyer requests. I will just pm you my login password.

Ah yes, your login password :-) Could I make some posts as well? :-)

But the point was really to discourage people from asking me to do this sort of thing unless it is absolutely necessary.

You're missing the point
