I may have one to add if there is one,sent several pm's with no response even though he has been on and still has items to sell listed. I will give it a bit longer and see what happens. As of right now I've been screwed.

I think that if there were a bad guy thread and your name isn't on it your good to go.

It would be very useful but I believe it would be immediately abused and sidetracked into pissing contests that would make the Optics forum or any thread with Bricktop in it seem like a love-in by comparison.
People would start bash-the-Christians threads just to lighten the mood.

I agree I would love a bad guy thread but it would be pissing and moaning central ,so probably better to do without it. Happy new Year to all and be safe. Spence

Yeah, in theory a bad guy list would be a good idea but, based on pizzing matches I've seen on numerous threads that largely involve "opinion", I think it would be abused. I could see posters being named to the "bad guy" list for pissing someone off in a thread about opinions...having nothing to do with whether or not they are scrupulous or non-scrupulous people to do business with.

Don't know a couple years ago a scammer took several of us "selling" brass and skipping with the funds,,,a bad guy thread with all the info we ended up digging up on the guy would have been nice for all others,, the guy can reregister with a new user name and still be using the same address,,,, now I check a users other post and search for references, if not satisfied I just pass,,
Location Western NC, after alot of other places

A bad guy thread would be great if only a moderator were allowed to post. Another site I get on has one and all you need to do is send your conversations or dealings to a moderator for them to judge and see if it worthy of being added to the bad guy list.

As of right now I've been screwed. So just because he isn't answering PM's you have been screwed? How so? I was wondering the same thing. Has he had dealings with you before? If a guy doesn't answer my PM's I move on to some one who does. Its his lose if he doesn't sell the items. Maybe thats an answer NOT to deal with this guy. just my .02 for what it's worth. The bad guy thread is a bad idea in my opinion. Some will bash others for the heck of it. Then the Mod's have to spend time Baby sitting. Again, just my .02

All these [bleep] new guys trying to change [bleep], especially yankees and left coasters, what the [bleep].
I still wonder how some make it through a day without someone telling them to 'breath in, breath out'

I firmly endorse the idea of a "bad guy" thread, in fact I have suggested it before.
I have had only one "Bad Guy" encounter here that being with Claude Gatewood who took me for $750.00.
All other dealings I have had have been most excellent and I have tried my best to reciprocate.

we need a vigilanty thread. if some one screws you you contact a person on it that lives nearby and he will go kill the azzhole that screwed you. and soon everyone will be good people. Darwin effect.
