Lol, honestly, I could care less about an edit feature and have never complained about not having one.

Anyways, lets get back on topic about prefixes and we can discuss paid membership in a different poll/post.

Well first no site similar to this charges $5-10 per month, $20 per year is normal. Then the problem comes to these paying members wanting something in return like say a month draw for something worth $50. 100 members (unlikely) = $2000 per year, = $167 per month. Then consider the time involved to set this all up. That's my argument, if you can't see it I'm sorry.

As for editing, cry all you want it was clearly removed for a reason. It was a privilege that came with responsibility mostly relating to not editing/removing items in for sale threads as per Canreef rules/guidelines. After many people broke this rule the privilege was removed. So yeah improper use of the edit feature is breaking the rules, if you cared to read them you would know this.

to be honest sponsors can do alot more to better themselves on canreef , seems to me to be a waste of money if you dont post, dont sell ,dont do anything....

i find it funny that i read through the sponsors list and i bet just about them all post very little about anything.

if sponsors are worried about members taking up the sell sections they should post their products themselves too, i rarely ever see frags for sale by any of the sponsors, none of them post pics or videos.

i can guarantee for a fact that i take no business away from the lfs here in calgary because my coral comes from there....where else would it come from??

im currently helping 2 stores in town do better business and bring in more customers as i know so many reefers and new reefers, one of the stores im talking into doing a sponsorship with canreef to help with his online business.

just so know one gets the wrong idea im a hobbyst always have been for years im about collecting coral, i have over 50 colonies of zoa and palys that i frag reguarily and never sell out ,ive researched and practised to the point where i can grow them fast.

anyone who knows me knows im up for a trade before cash , but alot of people refer to just buy coral.

as levi mentioned earlier currently in calgary there is not one place in town out of 6 stores to buy zoa frags(im not including coral master in this list, i dont think he does much for zoas anyways), its colonies only. none of the stores are willing to frag and its buy the $150 colonie or go elsewhere. to me and im sure many others that kinda sucks as sometimes i dont need 200 heads of watermelon zoas to get the 5 polyps of blue i did like.

if i have to buy a large colonie of something you can better believe ill be willing to frag it to offset the cost....anyone would.

also anyone whos been to my house knows i only have a 90g tank and a 50g fragtank so by no means a big commercial operation hell not even a basement operatation.




thought i should clear this up as it seems my name is getting thrown into this....
