View Full Version : *********
********* are no longer a sponsor of the forums and as such their "official" thread has been removed. Please email ********* directly with any enquiries ( sales@*********.com ) the same as you would for any other non sponsoring company. We will close new ********* threads from this point on.

Oh dear. Tis a shame really. Me thinks things have got a little out of hand recently...
Why are all threads going to be closed? Play and Future have threads posted, are they sponsors?
Or do you mean threads which ask questions direct to the MT staff will be closed?
Wildwayz is going to be a bit bored now!
Who has taken this decision by the way?

A lot more. It's impossible for Craig or anybody else to say anything though: more's the pity.

To many people falling off the fence in to the same garden maybe??
Its a shame things have gone this way. I hope all things work themselves out in the end :)
Craig, I hope you will continue to post in here as a 'regular' member?

I love a good conspiracy theory, if that's how you spell it.

Any reponse to this? I don't understand either unless its about specific orders?
Hopefully ********* will be back soon with us!

Just unfortunate that this has all happened :/
I know where Craig is coming from.
For those of you who still want to enquire about orders etc, you can try HERE (http://www.dvd-critic.net/forums/).
Or email
james@dvd-critic.net or as AndyW said sales@*********.com
Shame it had to come to this :/

yup, thats precisiely it. Play 247 et al don`t have represantatives answering punters questions on the forums, if they did we would also ask them for Sponsorship - so anything that is a direct question to ********* that could be conducted via email will be frowned upon for the time being.
I'm really sorry to hear about this Craig ! :(
Hopefully you can continue to visit from time to time !
edited - not as an 'answer questions' type thing, just to say hello ! :)
How much does it cost to sponsor the forums?

Thank you all, its been a fun ride..
Also thanks to AndyW & Colin and some of the mods, we were the first to have a sticky and i am sure these forums will grow and grow.
I hope to come by and say hello just gotta check with Andy that its okay too, don't wish to step on any toes. :D
Don't blame them. Things have been allowed to get far too out of hand at times, and the posts frankly insulting to Craig and his staff, who was posting here as a service to us. Some people seem to have forgotten this and should reflect on their comments.
Look forward to seeing the new site soon, hopefully with order tracking, which may lessen the email load somewhat. Won't fix those thieving so & so's at the Royal Mail though. :(
oh dear - that's a shame. tbh, I tended to email Craig direct, but the official thread was always handy for some extra insider info.
Good luck Craig - hope it works out and I'll still be sending some business your way I'm sure! (and you can sort out my little probs if you can!)
D'oh this is sad. The ********* thread was always good to see what was going on. Good for a gas kinda thing.
Tis a shame. I still visit ********* daily to see what's going on but i can't help but feel i'm going to be that little bit out of touch now.
Anyway good luck Craig in the future and hopefully we'll still see you around on the general or wherever.

Really?? I'm most upset that I haven't heard about this before! ;)
This is a bit disturbing. I have always had great assistance from Craig when trying to trace missing discs, (not forgetting James), but have found that responses from other mt addresses to e-mails have been abysmal. I hope Craig will still be available or I will have to look elsewhere.
I have never purchased anything from MT (they fouled up badly on my first ever order with them) but even I see that it's a shame that it has come to this.
It really could have been so easily avoided from the Forum's point of view if business disputes were kept between the parties concerned.
But hey!! Life goes on.
Good luck Craig. Come post stuff as a normal member if you want (and if you have time in your schedule :D ).
You may be asked to changed your Forum name though, cos that's advertising.:D

Ono - don't worry i still visit most days, for now, just to see who is doing what to who etc...:D
Sorry to see ********* go, I only ever had one problem with them and Craig was able to sort it out in next to no time.
All the best Craig.
