Now if the rest of you are done with your ridiculous comments:
Quoted from groovico
"You're obviously not in real business making a comment like that. People don't have to give you everything for free on a plate.
What have you done in return for example? He's well within his rights to charge for a service. It's called "business" none of this is a charity.
There's no need to be rude to people over it. He takes time out to figure out how to do the mod, posts it up on the site, then takes time out to contact you.
You make money out of your shop therefore, why should someone give their time for free to enhance your business? It's almost like asking an employee to work for free. "
I am sure that you find telemarketers calling you about their products a welcomed solicitation as they have found a way to trim your long distance bill or a better way for you to take a vacation through time share huh? Didn't think so!
And as for you telling me I did not need to be rude right after insulting me yourself...good example!
And as for not being in real business...you have no idea the level of my business expertise (at least I have shown where I am from and my url). Regardless, this is not a forum for business. It is a forum for support. I may not have helped people as much as you maybe but I have paid for a feature that will be in the next release of x-cart giving the ability to set tax exempt status for different membership levels. Big whoopie? Yes...for someone in the US that sells retail AND wholesale it is.
I will tell all of you why I wrote what I did. His statement was "now that I see that people want it I decided to charge for it". When he did not think it was all that special he was willing to give it away and not until people showed an interest did he say that he decided to charge. If you don't like my opinion than I really could care less as I am entitled to my opinion. I appreciate the help that is given to me on this board and if there is a time that I feel that it would be easier to pay to have it done than to just do it myself I would contact one of the pro's here (which could also be someone like invinceable) but that was not the way it was presented originally. This is a forum in which everyone helps everyone reach a common goal...an efficient, good-looking cart. That is why I sign on here...to get help and see if I have encountered something that I can help someone with. If it is to just be a place to sell your wares then I don't need to be here. It is wonderful if someone wants to sell something but present it as such from the beginning and why not have a place on the forum where they can post these items that they want to sell. I don't feel I need to be PM'd to be solicited for it or have to wade through these solicitations to find the help that is needed. This is still a forum provided by x-cart for x-cart support. I probably won't get any help anymore for stating my opinion but I live in AMERICA where you CAN say what you feel...popular or not! I hope you all have a great day.
