but then he wouldnt make money. I remember we had a thread about this a few years ago and although he is getting paid for this I just dont see it as spam because a) he isnt MAKING you read it, he clearly marks them b) people enjoy his videos.

however I totally know what you mean.

it's not just this guy... who's the member... is it SNAATCH (if not, I apologize) or something that's always selling cars on beyond, there's no way this guy goes through these cars just for personal use. He's gotta be curbing them on beyond.

In the past we have allowed the posts to stay because they are all on topic and it provides content for our forums. The fact that it is a monetized website does not factor in.

We may consider taking another look at this decision, but unless users on the forums step up and post videos to fill in the void that would be left, I doubt our decision would be any different.

Yeah that is what it was. Been a while since this was brought up. Since I am not forced to watch any and because the ones I do watch are really good I would like to see him stay. Even if he is a spammer in all sense of the word.

Christ he is less annoying than new members.




Also just to clarify I have been here since 2006, just no one would change my old account so I had to sign back up.

You're allowed to sell personal vehicles, but the guy seems to be selling a large number of used "personal" vehicles.

Meaning he's no different than one of our car selling sponsors like SDS or whomever, except he doesn't pay for sponsorship.

I'm all for people posting videos for more content on Beyond but he posts streetfire and youtube videos linked through his own site for profit. At least thats the only reason I can imagine someone doing that.

Personally, I don't peruse youtube and streetfire for video's, I've liked almost every one of Trev's that I've clicked on, and it isn't costing me anything but my time watching the vid.

I see a FUCK of a lot more retarded and wasted video's posted by our normal members, then his.

Well the times that it bothers me is a lot of the youtube videos if they were actually played through youtube you can adjust quality (ie. bump it up to 1080p) and the site is setup way better for viewing. Sure I guess I'm one more click away from watching them but I just find it interesting that suer while he is contributing to a section he's also doing it for himself for clicks.

06-01-2010, 02:25 PM

Who cares what his motives are, if they are worth viewing, people will view them. If not, don't click them and it won't bug you (at least it shouldn't).

word.

I contacted him once, seemed kinda seedy. I opted not to buy lol.

and to keep on topic, I dont mind trev's videos personally, or his posting. not many other people contribute much video wise, seems like it'd be a deadish area of the forum if not for him/her.

Really because I looked at his trader rating and he has nothing but positive comments.......

why does it matter he’s giving everyone on beyond an opportunity to purchase a decent car at a decent price. I don’t see the harm in that. I purchased a car from him last year and it was awesome I ended up selling it and made 400 bucks after driving it for 6 months in the winter.
So instead of wasting everyone’s time, why don’t you go and try to roll your fenders with pliers some more.

BMW with the M3 swap. He has a dealer plate because he has his own mechanical shop. He’s required to have one.

I've never dealt with him, and honestly never noticed until it was mentioned in this thread, but really, if he has a shop, and dealer plate, and is selling cars by the dozen on beyond... shouldn't he be required to be a sponsor?

LOL. Start tomorrow, and only post good videos.

I happen to enjoy most of the videos Trev posts. His time is spent finding decent videos, and he makes a minute amount of money every time I watch it. Theres nothing wrong with that.

All of you loser's saying he shouldn't be making money need to open your eyes to how many people are gouging you in this world and how insignificant this is to you (Trev isn't even taking your money).

The only person getting "robbed" in this situation is Beyond.ca and they don't seem to care. If you want to take over and do this out of the goodness of your XL heart, go ahead, waste your time! Nobody will give a shit...

Story was "a long time ago in a land far far away...."
- Snaatch sells 180sx and switched out the 2-way before the sale for a stocker... The stocker was installed incorrectly (assumed) and caused it to lock up down the highway just after the purchase... causing an accident...

How much did this POS cost?
