this site is very frustrating...none of my post are getting posted and i have tried on florida board...i am following the rules....am i getting aggravated and although I have VIP status...i don't know what else to do...feels like i wasted my money....i have very good reviews on another site but I can't put that anywhere..i have asked for access to provider only boards and haven't heard....
where all your posts are moderated. Until the moderator feels comfortable with what you are posting, you will remain moderated. The more you make your pressence known with good posts, the sooner you will get unmoderated.
Normal for new members...your posts will eventually go up. Just be patient, and allow the mods to get a feel for your posting style...if that's cool, they will take the restraints off soon..
First, everyone is initially moderated until it is felt that your posts will be a positive contribution to the boards and you are not likely to start or contribute to flame fests. However, each board has a moderator who reviews your posts and approves them. After you have been posting for a while, PM your moderator and ask to be un-moderated. (The length of time is up to the discretion of your moderator)
Second, TER is very specific about ad posting guidelines which include;
* you may only post 1 ad per week * travelling ads must contain the dates * special characters are not allowed in the subject line * if you link to your website, you must have the TER seal on the first or main page of your website and the TER seal must actively link to TER
I am posting the link from TER to their posting guidelines.
Until you have a few reviews, from TER members who are established, you will not be granted access to the Provider Only Board. Once you do, follow the directions on the TER Provider board login page and request access.
You will find that you will catch a lot more flies with honey than with vinegar. The moderators are very helpful providing that you are considerate and respectful in your communication with them.
You may be feeling like you "wasted your money" and that's entirely your decision. However, if you stick with it and learn the rules, you will find TER a very valuable resource.
i went to my post and my post were denied because i didn't post a link and the one i even mentioned a site says i banned site... omg....i have tried to follow the rules careful of what i say and so forth
Typically posts get approved in about a day. It's a PITA when trying to add to an existing thread. Go ahead & do so anyway so the mods will get used to you. On your local board (s) only on "ad"is allowed every 7 days. If you link to your web site... and you should... it needs a TER logo/link back. You can not link to a competive site. (a review site).
There is no limit on posts or replies, only ads. After about 30 days, ask a mod to unmoderate you. Access to provider only board has a number of TER reviews requirement. Most of this is covered in the Newbie Manual... the link is in red at the top of this board. It's not about payment... VIP gains you the ability to check out reviews but little else for providers. Some providers pay for full VIP to check out reviews a prospective TER client may have made... but a TER membership is only a supplement, not a replacement for screening. You can not put up your own profile, your first reviewer does this. You should then request TER to link your account to your profile... you get free limited VIP (read your own reviews & acess PM system).
If your trying to post an ad from a site that is banned from ter then it willnot go up, no matter howhard you try. maybe you should pm admin and ask if the site you are trying to link to is really banned if it is you will need to get your own site or put an ad on another site. If I am understanding what your saying correctly?
Unfortunately it looks like your attempt to purchase VIP membership has failed due to your card being declined. Good news is that we have several other payment options that you could try.
