Anyone know what happened to Hugo? His profile says "Moved On". Does anyone have an email address for him as I can no longer PM him. We were working on a deal. Thanks all!
 
Why? That's just wrong! Hugo, if you are reading this, I sent you a message through your website.

All Delight, if you talk to him, would you relay him this message. Thanks!
 
nowhere in that thread do i see him talking about his store... looks like any other "reefer selling to another reefer" thread

We will not discuss why a particular member was removed.

Suffice to say, the User Agreement is pretty clear, if you have a commercial realtionship, you cannot use RC for selling...period.
 
*sigh , I have already told him about us retailer store/online sotre owners weren't allow to post anything for sale or pictures that are anywhere related to selling even in our display tank, as that falls under commercial items under RC rules. That is why you hardly ever see me/Eric/Jen or anyone that owns a store get involved in buy/sale threads and post pictures of corals or our tanks.
IMHO, reefcentral is a great resource that have lots of information regarding to the saltwater realm, and i believe that everyone deserves a second chance.. Moderators, if you can contact hugo and give him a complete outline on what he can and can not do, I am sure he will benefit the reefin community. He's not a bad person, just misunderstood some of the rules.:)

We always contact someone when they are removed. Bans are not permanent as long as the issues can be worked out.

I think it was hard because he went from hobbyist to retailer. So as a hobbyist on RC you can frag and sell. But as a retailer, you can't even if its from your personal tank at home. Which is where all his good stuff was anyway.

I doubt if he was spaming and trying to promote his business.

Anyway, hopefully he can get things straightened out and get back on RC.

That's correct.

The challenge is how do we police this? How do we know if some retailer is selling stuff from his personal tank versus the store? Or ordering stuff through the stores wholesale license and dropping it in the 'home tank' to then post and sell it.

There is no man-power feasible way to do it, so the decision was made to not allow any retailer to sell.

Hope that helps.

I spoke w/ Hugo and he was made aware of what he did wrong. Let us just hope things can be worked out and Hugo can return to RC!

It's good to know that just because you've been awarded tank of the month, doesn't mean you earn any more respect with the mods.
