Free Timeshare Ads - TUG Timeshare Marketplace!

[TUGBrian]

the "new message" line should disappear after you have clicked through to your ads and viewed the message yes...it will only appear after you recieve a new unread message for your ad.

the error might likely have been us working on the issue...if you want to find your ad and send yourself a test message to make it reappear...that would be fine. let me know!

Where is my message?

I got an e-mail that someone is inquiring about a rental ad, but there is nothing in my BBS private message box. I found some link to an ad message on another page, but when I clicked on it, all I got was a blank page with a heading that said GeneralServerError. Where is the message?

 

[TUGBrian]

the BBS has nothign to do with the ad system.

to read your messages you again should log into the members only section of tug

http://tug2.com/tugmembers

then after logging in you will see a message that says "You have X new messages about your ads"

you can either click the note itself...or click the "ads youve placed" link under the classified ad or wish ad column (depending on which message you recieved)

it will show you all your ads...and respective messages for each ad.


or you can click this link if you are logged in

No message, again.

Received an email that I had a message re: a wish posting.
Signed in, but no message.

I could, however, view existing messages from my other postings.

I believe one of our developers was doing some tests last night...if by chance the email was from hotmail....that was likely it.

Wish Ads Placed & old Password cookie

Brian I placed a wish to rent ad (Mexico) that I now want to delete, but the link for "wish ads you placed" does not take me to my ad, just a blank title page for a wish ad. I am logged in.

Second item is when I log into the Market place and I type in my user name it automatically places a three digit password, like the old "tug" password, and if I click on it it says invalid password, then put current password and it works fine. Is there a cookie somewhere that is remembering the old password?

Thanks Bob

you sure you are clicking on ads youve placed in the wish section vs the regular classified ads? I show your wish ad posted fine?

that is your own web browser doing that...not the tug site. you should be able to clear your saved passwords via your browser options (careful not to delete them all)

 

[TUGBrian]

scratch that first one...

Now have a confirmed glitch...some changes we uploaded tonight have caused the "ads youve placed" screens to not display ads for some members.

Your ads are not gone...nor are they taken offline from public view...they are all still there...just that section is not displaying them.

Please be patient while we sort out what may have caused this.

 

[TUGBrian]

this issue should now be fixed...please send an email to tug@tug2.net if you are unable to view your ads/messages in the "ads youve placed" section

thank you..and sorry for the inconvenience last night!

 

[TUGBrian]

over 1300 ads posted...and I havent even sent an email out to the bulk of the TUG membership notifying them of the program yet!

most impressive!

Brian - I just [looked at the new rental page] and I noticed that the [Westin St. John] resort is listed as:
Virgin Grand Villas (aka Westin Vacation Club-St. John)

This resort is not known (commonly) as this anymore - so it is somewhat confusing. Is it possible to change to "Westin St John"?

 

[TUGBrian]

this came up before...the best way to handle this (and itll change on your ad automatically) is to contact the review manager for that resort.

simply log into the ratings/reviews...find the resort itself and go to the review page. Click the "contact this review manager" button on the left side below the picture and notify him/her about the name change etc.

they can make the change in the next update cycle and your ad title will change automatically as its pulled from the database itself!

 

[DavidnRobin]

Thanks if I get the energy - I will attempt.

This 'appearance of a sale/rent/exchange' rule is inane (IMO)- when many other links to sales/rents that are not in the first person are okay(?) - makes no sense. I have had many people ask me directly for an exchange of our (cannot mention...) villa - should I just start send out PM to those that have the unit type - or others that use the LMR board for thier own rental business, but a single exchange request is forbidden. I do not know why I even bother....

Hi David - if you go back to the main page for the reviews you will see a link to the moderator for that area and that's who would make the change. http://tug2.com/RnR/Reviews.aspx

Right under Caribbean, click on contact area rep

 

[TUGBrian]

I dont understand your comment? it doesnt appear that it has anything to do with the new classified ad system?

Brian - I just sent you a pm.

 

[TUGBrian]

ah...moderators just enforce the rules. sadly if people did not exploit the site in ways that do violate the no advertising rule (note I dont believe it was your intention..just making a point)...then the rules wouldnt have to be in place to begin with.

sadly they must apply for all vs being selective...you wouldnt believe the sort of emails we get when people complain about how they feel they were treated unfairly because "this person got away with it".

sorry.

 

[TUGBrian]

ok...as of today July 1, 2008 the legacy ad system will no longer allow new ads to be posted or existing ads to be renewed!

All new ads (or expiring old ads in the legacy system) will need to be placed in the new Timeshare Marketplace.

http://tug2.com/timesharemarketplace

Hopefully it wont be much longer before all links will point to the Timeshare Marketplace to avoid confusion between the different ad systems.

 

[TUGBrian]

1400+ and counting...free ads are indeed quite popular!

Is this New Marketplace a Scam

I posted an ad on this new "free" classified marketplace, then got one message and now my ad shows "sold". Smells like a scam to gain information on who wants to sell then locking out their competition. A good explanation might help restore my trust with this board's services.

 

[TUGBrian]

as I have also replied to your email...the ONLY way an ad is listed as complete is if you click "mark as sold". Ads arent marked as complete merely because someone sends a message about the ad.

I have republished your ad as its clear you certainly didnt mean to mark it as sold.

Thanks for the kind words here and in the email...we appreciate you not trusting us and such given all the hard work we put into this new program that was given to you for free.

please send me an email to TUG@TUG2.NET with a bit more details as to the problems you are having and I will gladly help you.

 

[TUGBrian]

busy people tonight...1500+ ads now!

 

[TUGBrian]

this is going along fabulously....nearly 1700 ads posted...an impressive number of completed ads as well...curious to see how it looks after the first "quarter" of ads concludes.
