Welcome to the forum Apetpatobut!
For me it's music, that's what i do. I play guitar, bass and key's. I'm a "fill in" guitarist for a local metal band who's main guitarist is going through some issues right now. I got to play last night and we have a gig tonight as well. I do enjoy it a lot! My home business keeps me rather busy so i can't take the job full time but i would love to.

Don't use PayPal! they will rip you off! I was warned but i used paypal anyway, and now they have $1130.00 of my money and are refusing to turn it over to me! I had paypal for 3 years with no problems untill now.
Over the last 3 days there was a spike in sale's through my online store and now they say "You can't use paypal for this product you have" They want me to CLOSE my store front before they release my funds. IS THAT EVEN LEGAL?!

I know i'm ranting but i am soooooo stressed out over this! The products i sell are LEGAL! How can they do this??!! What do i do? I'm getting my lawyer on this one!

Thanks for letting me get that out, now i just want to punch a hole in something!

Texasdrake, i'm so sorry to hear this sad news. My deepest condolences my friend.

laranger · 12-11-2009, 08:40 PM

My condolances Texasdrake. Sorry for your loss.

Texasdrake · 12-12-2009, 07:27 AM

Thanks guys..Mom's death hadn't really hit me yet.Death usually has a delay affect on me.Its usually when you except to see them at a certain time or you thoughbt of something you wanted to share with them and realize they're not there for you to share it with then it starts to hit you.
My aunt came up today to help get mom's stuff out of the nursing home.Its has to be harder on her cause my mom(her sister) would be the fourth close family member she lost in 2 years.2 years ago my grandmother(her mom) died in June and barely 2 months later in August her youngest son who was in his 30's died.This past Summer her husband died and now my mom died.
My aunt isn't in the best of heath herself so all those deaths is taking thier toll on her.The services going to be on Monday and it will probably hit me then.
Well anyway Thanks again guys

I had a Paypal account for years till they shut it down a few years back all cause I was dumb enough to allow a friend to use it.Since after a certain time you can get a Paypal card whiuch can be use at ATMs it was cheaper to send money though them instead of using western Union and spend money sending it.
Yeah paypal is so ANAL about what can be done with your account they would shut it down in a heart beat for the dumbest things.My friend needed her Nicotine fix and had a friend send her money so she could buy cigarettes.The guy was stupid enough to put "For Cigarettes" in the header and Paypal thought I was selling Cigarettes online though them.So of course they shut it down even after they said to get in touch with them to clear up the matter.
The dumbest part is I started up another Paypal account the other week... ONLY cause I sometimes buy stuff on Ebay and almost all perferred you use Paypal to send them the money.If it wasn't for that I would have told Paypal to take the Stick out of thier arses and stop shutting down accounts over the dumbest things.Most likely they a "God like" complex like the WalMart people and think they can do as they please and people will bow down to them.

Immortal · 09-20-2009, 12:23 AM

Much better day today. I got my money from paypal and now when someone uses CC in my store it gets billed to my email address.
HA, screw you paypal!!

I guess they don't like you making too much money at one time. ($1,609.00 in three days.)

I was up till 4am emailing customers and letting them know all is fine but i still feel like i was "Kicked in the nuts" by paypal. That said, PAYPAL CAN BITE ME!!!

Happy to hear that Immortal,

Bit gutted today, last night my old Sony screen finally packed up. Just bought a new LG screen save size as my old one. Which is 17in i did have a 21in on trial but found it way too big. Anyone here use a large screen? or is 17in about the average most people use nowadays, just curious as what size your screens are.

Texasdrake · 09-26-2009, 02:08 PM

I forgotten how big mine is.Close as I can figure its about 17 inches. luckly it was the "Perfect" size due it barely fit in the area on my computer desk that was set for a monitor. The monitor had builted in speakers so the screen could have a been a few inches wider without the speakers.I would think with a 21 inches you would have to be a hardcore gamer who wanted the extra area for thier gaming experience or someone who can see thier monitor from across the room.

Oh just had a second and best thought for a 21 inch monitor...SUPER SIZE Danielle photos and videos.Best reason for a bigger monitor.

Screen sizes are getting bigger all the time. Back in the days 20 inch iMac was the largest you could buy. Not anymore. Today, the smallest iMac has a 21.5 inch display, and the larger model has a 27 inch!

I'm feeling OK with my 20 inch display. Not everyone has the money or need to upgrade their computer all the time to the latest and greatest.
