Hi guys,

When one goes to one's user profile, there is a "Referral" under that followed by a number. For e.g. I have 6 referrals; others may have a different number.

What the heck is this and who does all the referrals??

Sam · 26 August 2005, 09:56 AM

Beats the heck out of me. I have only 1. My best guess would be that when people join they can list someone that refers them. But then again, I'm full of

JJ Irani · 26 August 2005, 11:08 AM

I don't remember anyone ever referring me to this forum. I was introduced to the link by our friend, Adrian, and that's it.

Sam · 26 August 2005, 11:12 AM

Hey JJ....when you go to register as a new user, here's one of the blanks you're asked to fill in.

"If you were referred to this site by an existing member of The Rolex Forums, enter their name here."

I guess if someone lists you as the "referrer" then you get +1 added to your referrals number.

"If you were referred to this site by an existing member of The Rolex Forums, enter their name here."

The confusing part is I was never asked this question!!

I merely signed on myself.

You must have left that line blank then dude. Doesn't matter. Someone (or 6 someones) must have put your name as referring them to TRF. That's why you have 6 referrals.

JJ Irani · 26 August 2005, 12:16 PM

Okay, thanks Sam. I'm glad somebody up there does like me!!

Referral is polite for "Tosser".

6 being the highest,0 being the lowest.

Therefore you are the highest "tosser". (In the politest way of course.)

JJ, If anyone I referred joined up, I'd have to ban them. I wouldn't want to be a member of a club with anyone I recommended.

27 August 2005, 02:39 PM

I also done have 0 referrals. I hope it wont make me a lesser person!
