Service Provider Clarification

[TheB1GDude]

This announcement is in reference to the XMS Service Providers section of the forum, recently it has come to light that clarification around how this section should be used is required both for our members and staff.

The intent of this section is provide our users with one central section that lists trusted members who offer various services, i.e. painting, electronics work, etc, many of us have been burned in the past by members who offer amazing services but are never able to follow through, using this section we can strictly review the work of anyone who wants to be a service provider before allowing them to provide their services..

If an existing member is interested in becoming a Service Provider then they should contact a member of staff with their ideas on a thread that shows in detail what they offer, this will then go under review with the rest of the staff and if they are approved they will be given permissions to post in the Approved Service Providers area, members can then review this area to locate the services they are looking for.

Once a member knows what services they require or if they have questions for a particular service provider then the Work Requests section can be used, note. that an example of how to create a work request can be found here.

If the Service Provider has an existing thread in the B/S/T area then the staff ask that it be modified to only list parts that they have for sale as we are trying to keep parts and services separate from each other.

Please note. that it is down to the individual member to contact a member of staff about becoming a service provider, other members should not be suggesting them as the user may only be doing a one batch of certain service, in this case the user can list in the B/S/T area but all users should be aware that any service transactions are not endorsed by the staff and that risks maybe associated with them.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
