Help Me I Have Been Scammed

[don miguel]

this "Oscarine" guy only has 9 posts, one of the suggestions in the B/S/T scammer alert thread is to not buy from people w/ a low post count. Plus he joined in 2005, so he is obviously not a very "active" user (bad communication). You should have looked into that. My personal limit is to not even think about buying from people w/ under 50 posts, 100 is even risky in my mind. the post count shows how active a user is, you should have checked that out befor buying.

You fail at the internets. Seperate peeps, yo.

Nono... I know ur not derek.

I'm just saying, as a blanket statement, Derek's powers reach beyond the bans. Until the mere mention of your name causes threads to spiral downward into an abyss of flames, you're a nobody.

You're still doing it wrong. I think you were around at the time I'm referring to; just under your old (mispelled) screenname.

How does his first post make him sound like a flaming homo? He sounds rational, and is just looking for some advice. Some people think he is jumping the gun. I don't, but even if he is, just mention that and move on. The guy might be out hundreds of dollars, and I don't think he appreciates the "humor" of some of the people who posted. Chances are, if we were out the money, we wouldn't either.

Amen!

Look, its many of the same knuckle dragging monkeys that were harrasing DM, so they slow down on that, but now they look for somone else to treat like crap. All this under the idiotic idea of "Its a stupid post, so we shall flame him". Why do they think that they are the are the end all, be all of how things should be around here.? Because we have lost alot of Mods attention, and there is no consequences to their actions. Its mob mentality around here these days. Or you caould say its High school all over again, with cliques trying to be superior, and the ones trying to be superior are making themselves look more like a moron than the person they are flaming. It amazes me how a person can make a post, that doesnt break a rule, and these window lickers, are flaming away, because they think they are doing AO a favor, and breaking rules in the meantime. Grow up kiddies, because you will find consequences to your actions, maybe not now, but Karma can be cruel. Treat people like you want to be treated, how hard is that? Dont like their post? Leave it alone....sheesh.

What highschool did you go to? I was in no way in a "superior clique" but I never had trouble with bullying or them talking smack on me because I did not act like I was an idiot .

No offense but like DUDE! Aren't you being a little bit of a hypocrit(sp)? I mean seriously, you flame everyone who flames dm even when the facts are against you. Is anyone noticing this?

Sorry, clicked the link and I dont understand what your getting at, please explain.

I may be a crappy judge of character, and maybe I should shut up. But I will post what I like as everyone else does. I feel that AO isnt past the point of no return. Its close to becoming another PBN. Which is what AO used to not want to be. I judge their character by what they post, as you would do to me also. So please tell me why you feel my character judgement is bad....

My point is that some people are TRYING to act like a "Superior" AO member, and becoming the problem, instead of the solution. If you havent posted in this thread flaming this guy, then you fine as far as I am concerned at this point.

None taken.

Am I being a hypocrite? yea you could say that. But I will admit that, most of the other troublemakers cannot admit that what they are doing may not be the right way to handle things. So unforunatley I have to stoop down to their level, so that hopefully they might get what I am saying (Hasnt really worked yet..lol). Plus, its just plain starting to make me angry. What facts are you talking about? What facts are against me? please explain. As I said before, If your not following the moronic behaviors of some on AO, and posting idiotic things in perfectly proper threads, then my rants dont apply to you.

In spite f all the shenannigans, he did get all the useful responses one could expect to get from the situation. The rest of the posts are clearly OT.

Don't feel so bad. If the kid was really offended and put out by a few OT responses to a question that is pretty dumb (givin it's prematurity), he can just delete the thread.

This is the internet, don't take stuff so seriously.

True he did get good info if you read in between the crap posts. IMO, I dont think his post was dumb or premature. The way things happened would make me think it is a possible scam. So he asked for advice and help. Sorry that does not make a stupid post. In your opinion he is worrying prematurely, but in others opinion he isnt. So whos right and whos wrong? No one really, just different ways of thinking about it. But just because you may be right does not justify him being flamed. Does that make sense to anyone else?

The only reason I have taken this stuff as seriously as I have, is I see it as the start of the avalanche of PBN type posts, and the overtaking of PBN type attitude, instead of an much better AO attitude. When someone came to AO and asked questions such as this threads, people prided themselves for helping them, and trying to help them become a member of AO caliber, and not PBN caliber. But now with the quick to flame attitude of some AO'ers, its gonna chase people away, very possibly QUALITY members. The flame fest doesnt make people post better, it sends them the message, "Post like I think you should or go away". the problem is, those that act that way are not representives of AO, they are common members. Basicly it just doesnt have to be this way.
