Is this the day where women march globally for equal rights and equal opportunity, and anti violence and pro-misandry?

......but just to show how disadvantaged they are...........come on here to flash their Rolex?

I think that's what one would call an inherent contradiction.

Really? I thought it was just a ploy to boost the economy... women's day mother's day valentine's day... most women don't cook on that day, so the entire family go to a restaurant. While at it, why not buy her something? A rolex?

Lol =)

Why do u think that?
There is a lot of "teenagish" meaningless threads and lots of understandable repeats ... The whole point is that the more replies and threads the more money the owner of the site makes, and more value to it when he wants to sell it ... It's a business make no mistakes. And he has to pay the moderators to watch every reply to make sure it stays in line! Still, it's one of the best Rolex sites IMO and it's helpful and organized.

Oops, somehow I missed this! Not to jump in to the side topic of the thread, but I too wish there were more women active on this forum. However, I do enjoy getting to learn more about the men's side of thoughts and decisions ;)

Anyway, here's my beauty! Still so totally in love with it (does that ever go away?!?!)

A better question would be to ask Judy if she perceives herself a victim.

If I'm not mistaken the end of this thread is a lawyer somewhere! If you think this is not a money making business you are mistaken.

Truth to be told, this is arguably the number one Rolex web site and I'm an addict.

Do you realize how much 24/7 close monitoring by the moderators there is to keep the site clean!?! Try to bash anyone and get out of line and you will get a warning message in no time then your account will be cancelled. Fair is fair. I recall recently someone posted some "porn" post on the site, It Tom them less than 15 minutes to remove it. It's s complicated world my friend.

FYI moderators are very knowledgable, I know Peter is top notch.

Your purported statements of fact are entirely wrong, and you attribute unmeritorious motives to the operation of the forum and its administration.

Such allegations have the effect in bringing the operation of the forum into disrepute.

He doesn't know what he's talking about..

Money Sites are paid by hits on advertisers sites. TRF does not allow any advertising, it makes no money off the members..

Wrong, logging in is not related to any such monetary receipt.

Wrong, this website is not a business and it is not driven by money or the pursuit of monetary gain. Moderators are not paid and the unfounded and misconceived alleged facts are very disturbing.

Any more posts with false accusations pertaining to the forum or its operation will result in further measures against you. You have been warned.

I make my living on the web, and I think what LOL-X & Tools are saying is absolutely accurate.

People don't just get paid or make money for visits, they have to monetize those visits, each site monetizes at a different rate. There may be value in the Search Engine Ranking Positions acquired by new thread creation, but it isn't cash in your pocket. It's more subtle than that.

Nidal,....Before you destroy what's left of this forum let's get one thing very straight.

The Moderator's make NO MONEY on this site. They deal with comlpaints day after day, fraile egos, and people bent on causing problems on a daily basis. Your statements out of the blue add nothing to this forum.

Consider your response carefully if you want to stay.
