Curious About BST Complaints

[potentialeight]

I've seen a lot of complaints here in STS for a while about services in the BST section sucking. Before I start my next BST thread for my content service, I thought it would be a good idea to get some opinions on what people like and don't like about BST content threads. I glanced through some of the more recent threads there, and I came up with a few things that jumped out to me.

- Gross grammatical and spelling errors in the OP
- Colors/fonts/graphics that are difficult to read
- Bragging about knowing the difference between they're/their/there, etc.

I don't know if other people are bothered by these things, but I'll admit that it could just be me. If you guys would like to tell me what you like and don't like about the threads themselves and the services offered, then that would be awesome. Here are some broads for your trouble.

I personally like when I can place an order immediately, without having to PM the OP to ask for details on how to pay and what information is needed from me. Waste of time. A good BST thread is one that contains the following:

- Simple and clear description of the service
- Testimonials from actual WF members (couldn't care less about reviews from WaFo or DP)
- Price
- Turnaround Time
- Buy Now button
- More pics of that girl bending over in the black & white photo

don't fucking ask people to pm you for more info/pr rank/price.

don't fucking be from anywhere other then USA unless you are good at english.

sales copy should be short and to the point.

don't post 5000 quoted reviews.

to be honest every gig offered in bst can 99% of the time be recreated by either getting a ALN account and knowing how to use Scrapebox.

^pretty much this 100%. Also I like to have payment process automated. Making me pm you/send you information is a waste of my time. Make it all automated. Seriously every other BST provider reading this fucking do it.

Sorry for this but it appears that STS is becoming the new BST.

I think the girl in the black and white picture bending over in the first post is Jessica Jaymes, but I'm not certain.

Thank you guys for the suggestions. I'm going to incorporate everything that makes sense into my next thread. Here are more broads for your time.

Have an online order form. <--- This is overlooked.
Post FAQ's and samples if possible.
Post your rate in easy to read manner. I hate that some people's rates are in the 3rd sentence of a paragraph.

dont need stupid copy, we're marketers, just tell us what you're selling, don't try and hype shit up.

Have a web site, not just a bloody sales thread. Want to make money? Put the effort it to build a business, or at least a small portal. Like the old saying goes, treat people like you want to be treated. Act like a fly-by-the-night panzy operation, expect to get treated like one. Put in the effort to build a professional site / portal, expect to get treated with professionalism.

If I purchase something from you from simply finding you on the forums, it's because I'm testing you, not because there's an important project of mine that needs to be done. Prove that you know your shit, and are professional about it, then you go into my "good list", which means you get treated & paid better, with more work always coming. If you fuck it up or screw me over, that's totally fine, and just part of business, but you'll no longer exist to me.
