Topic Wiki

HTs have been last updated on 9/6/23

Q: I had deals posted to the main site, why do I have a zero?

A: It's not updated automatically, post a link to your deal on the forum(*), the DDMS link, and the number HT it should be and Dan will update it.

(*)If your HT is already in the DDMS post there's no need to link to the forum thread.

Hat tips are not awarded for:
-Amazon "Deal of the Day".
-B&H deal zone.
-Discountmags sales
-Credit card deals.
-Deals that are only part of a roundup.
-Deals that were posted as part of a master thread when they belong in a new thread.
-Deals posted in the following boards: SH, GD, TT, TDR, JS, or GFST.
-Deals that are posted with a thread title that doesn't spell out the full deal
-Back in stock/alive again updates within 3 months of the last update
-Deals posted more than 3 months after a forum post
-Updates to old post.
-Recurring sales such as 7/11 slurpee day, Rita's 1st day of spring, Nordstrom Anniversary, half yearly or seasonal sales, Flying Blue Promos, IHG Pointsbreaks, etc

Limit of 1 HT Per DDMS Post Per User.   

HT has always gone to who told me or posted first.
That includes but not limited to DDF, DDMS Comments, Facebook & E-mail.

There is no need to bump a request if it was made after the last updated date in this Wiki.

New Bump Rule: A bump counts if it's been 3 months since last post. Same applies for DDF, if someone posted it within the past 3 months they get the HT.

BUMP
BUMPX2

If its not eligible, please explain why.

Do I need to wait 72 hours every time I bump this request, or is the 72 hour waiting period only for the initial bump.



@davidmal  , since the owners are ignoring me, can you shed some light as to why this would be ineligible?

1. could be considered roundup.
but I saw you had 2 deals

prob because you didn't open a new thread. you posted the deal buried in a sub thread.

Your Ht's still say 89..... so maybe you should review some of your old HT's

Dan just hasn't gotten around to updating it yet. No ones count has been updated since 6/14

On that note I wonder if this qualifies:

True, but...

Of course i didn't open a new thread. Each deal alone was not good enough to warrant a new thread, just like they werent worthy enough to warrant their own post on the main site.
Hopefully its because of this:
No ones count has been updated since 6/14

I usually attribute the silence to Dan being away, yesterday he was in ny but I believe he's back and JJ was also very quite over the weekend but he too seems to be back in the game now so not sure what it is this time

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

I guess it depends on which half did better. Lol.
