Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

[Enoch]

I am still a member but frankly, if I am or not is not relevant to this conversation. I personally think that private conversations should stay that way. Not everything needs to be out in public. The more I treat VMP like a company and less like my friend the better off I am. I don't want to know the employees of the company. I just want a money only transaction. I give them money, they give me records (at expected quality and on time). Someone mentioned the story of the frog and the scorpion and I think it applies here. If you continue to give money to VMP, your cries start to ring hollow.

So because I have a different line I am not to be taken seriously?

Good to know, thanks for responding. I wanted to make sure the staff wasn't just people that were done with VMP.

But why would that matter? This isn't the Vinyl Me Please forums anymore. It is unaffiliated for a reason.

Yeah but have any of the admins ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? Hmmm?

Oh my god this was too funny. I almost spit water in public.

Why?

we’re supposedly biased against VMP. Said so in a post up above somewhere.

VMP already has more threads than any other club. If anything, the bias is FOR vinyl me please, not against

No, I'm saying that everyone has their own line. I don't complain anymore (to anyone but @info) because it's not good for my own mental health.

You mean "parcialidad".

I demand that all the staff join every other club with a page on here to right this horrific pro VMP bias situation

And I have advocated for that to not be the case

I haven't been a subscriber for well over a year, but I'll also say that I still acquire VMP releases I'm interested in, sometimes at a premium, sometimes for less. So as I've always stated, there are problems with the product that should be addressed, but my issues are more with the business/company. So I speak with my wallet, by giving that money to someone else.

Look I may be alone (but appears not from DMs I have received), but I guess it is too much to ask for voices to be heard and be taken seriously but that doesn't seem to be the case. I am sorry I hate for people to feel unsafe, that seems to be the case for others. I will be looking at other places I can have a community where I can post something and not be told to expect backlash immediately and people to DM me that they don't post because of it.

omg my poor wallet!

I say again this has become about me and not what I am saying

I've offered those people a voice if they want to be heard. So I'll say it again, if ANYONE feels unsafe, fears posting about VMP, please contact me directly and I'll be more than happy to discuss it with you.

As if it matters, I'm a VMP subscriber running all 3 tracks and still buying store exclusives that I want. But, I also get very pissed at VMP. I have never felt unsafe stating my thoughts on VMP, whatever direction those thoughts lean at the time.
