Americanization has arrived, now ausfish is wanting $$'s for people to join to talk crap

Now their forum isn't working. You get shunted in a circular loop looking for a disappearing message you have to read before you can view the forum.

Paying to use a web forum is retarded, and not just because it doesn't even work. But knowing a lot of the members there they may just fall for it. It's the most inbred bunch of backslappers I've ever come across. They've talked themselves up so much they won't know what to do if they are cut loose.

Here is a copy of the email I sent to Ausfish today............

Dear Sirs,

This email is sent on a Without Prejudice basis.

I believe it is criminal to charge a fee to be a member of a chat board.

The fee of $10 was never disclosed during the application process, I was only informed of the fee after I had signed on and you had my information on file.

Please remove my request for membership immediately.

Please note I have forwarded details of this matter to the Department of Fair Trading, noting that you ask prospective members to sign on without advising them there is a fee to be able to use the forum interactively and then advise them of the fee after you have procured their personal information. Consumers should always be informed of any charges before being asked to sign up. You are clearly in breach of the disclosure laws that are in place to protect consumers.

There are many free sites available which are similar, if not better than your own.




....... I hope they start thinking a little more clearly.

You only have to pay a fee so as to stop being bombarded with all the useless advert crap

Spamming your members isn't much better, but using the threat of spam to justify a fee is just low. Perhaps if they didn't waste so much time trying to control what opinions people are allowed to have, they wouldn't have to charge so much to keep the site running. Why would someone pay to be told what their opinion is?

The main stream sites are on the down. Low numbers participating and those that are left are the talking the same old **** over and over again.

All these sites lowered the IQ when they pissed everybody off

So how is ausfish doing? Was this the final nail in the coffin?

easy to raise sportfish IQ .. shaft drongo and co

Well you could all join MrFisho and really get shafted with his money scams.

There is a few new sites around that have taken a new direction for the better, problem some of the old ****s from places like MrFisho, fishnet ect... join and bring their bull **** attitudes with them.

Just wait for what MRFISHO has lined up.
Screwing new members and discrediting the old ones

Leave the bloke alone
