    Shilling

    Shilling

    Until last week I thought a shilling was an old English coin! Now I have learnt otherwise.

    I strongly disagree with comments that this is a common practice in our industry and occurs regular on CGN, I do not believe that is true. I am very surprised to hear of others admitting to this practice and I cannot agree with them claiming that they had to operate in this manner as a form of self defence. Certainly that would not be my way, as I believe anyone caught shilling should be exposed, we need to keep our house in order.

    Here at Wolverine Supplies we have always tried to operate as openly and as transparently as is practical, I have always posted here as Mr Wolverine. Our goal at Wolverine Supplies has always been to lead by example, we operate with the highest possible level of integrity and pride ourselves on the top level of customer service and support that we offer. This statement is supported by the fact that with my team, we have been able to build a very successful thriving business based on these principles.

    To insure that there is absolutely no misunderstanding this is how Wolverine Supplies has operated on CGN.

    I sincerely hope that the CGN management deal with all shilling’s in the appropriate manner. Not only do we need to keep a clean house we need to seen doing it in order to maintain credibility.

    Don't worry John, I don't think anyone was aiming those comments at your business. Like I said last week, you don't need anyone doing shilling for you when you run a top notch business.

    Thank you for this post. Shilling has been very concerning since reading that first post. Thank you.

    This is needed, and just some going up on the forum IMO. Hopefully they'll handle the liberal shills that show up on here as well.

    Smart of John to clarify his position on this coin mess.

    We all know when the sh!t hits the fan everyone is painted with the same brush. Just looks at the typical post, folks don't read nor research, much easier to just assume. And guilty with finger pointing is too tempting of cheap entertainment for most.

    Good to see listing of associate accounts. Helps level out the playing field.

    Very interesting this shill business. Thank you wolverine for your honesty, business integrity and just being a top notch crew. It will be interesting to see other businesses disclose their employees online names.
