It would be healthier I think to keep this discussions private. And there is a scammers thread.

As far as I am concerned the people who giveaway stuff can do it just the way they like and gift it to whomever they want. I for one am more a MAHAYO kind of guy but it's up to the giver.

Sure there are scammers, downvoters, trolls, beggars, stealers, hoarders, egocentrics assholes,... on this forum but i still believe this is a better place then most communities. Giving them attention will not make them go away it will make it worse...

Edit: to be clear: i mean no one in particular so don't get offended.

Thanks for that reply :)

For any concerned, this is a learning by doing thing for me. That means that my intent is to call people on their bullshit and educate people on some of the practises going on here. If I am wrong on something I will admit it when shown otherwise. That is why I wrote out what I did above re how this interaction started and continued.

I fixed your Problem.

Yes it appears a script is running to downrep as it often is in this thread. I always try to balance that out with +1s where I see blanket downrepping going on, and since posting this it appears that others are either manually uprepping or running a script to counter it :)
Melhelix already made me a badge :D Thanks for the laugh and effort for doing so :)

I'll put my 2 cents in and say in regards to the PM posting thing that I don't think it's all that bad in this context, if it had say someone's RL info or was a more personal problem or something along those lines then I'd have issues with it.

The manner of what was said in that conversation is something that I've seen in various threads and no one has trouble when someone post's a link to it. Like I said if it had been more personal in nature then there would have been an issue.

I don't think there was a problem in the conversation ( referring to RabiatorG0G) I think it was a way to explain how things got where they are/were.

Four hours...

To?

Are you not a Ninja? Figure it out. :P

sry tarnicus from where im standing ure already way too high up there to notice if or when ure wrong so please dont say you admit when you see youre wrong coz obviously that isnt the case especially since you seem to temper with the own evidence you provide, despite me disliking your PM posting in here you seemed to fail to include all those links in these PM's didnt you?

Thank you for writing this. I thought that grunthos64 saying that I failed to share his proof as mentioned earlier in this thread was his way of saying that I was telling a partial story, hence screenshot of our conversation. In won't do so in future unless I am being called a liar(which is what I interpreted it).

Please remember guys that the FIRST mention of grunthos64 in relation to me taking a look at the history of what has been going on(I have had a couple of extended absences) was by him in this thread. I had no intention of posting anything about him whatsoever as someone who continually takes is far different from someone caught lying red-handed and scamming, as was the case with Venheim.

To clarify what I meant by "don't mind if I'm not liked for doing this. I don't mind if I am banned from the forums, which technically isn't possible as these scammers have taught us..." is that whenever one says anything, there will be people who agree, disagree and have all manner of opinions inbetween. I am aware that some don't like what I am doing because it exposes what they have been up to. I am aware that some don't like what I am doing because of the methods used, none of which are illegal. Every bit of information I have found has started from these forums.

My comment on being banned from the forums(as per grunthos64's suggestion) and that it wouldn't bother me was because if that were to occur, is because if this community continues to change the way it has by becoming a magnet for greed without anything being done about it, then I would rather not be part of it.

Concerning grunthos: I posted some of the links to giveaways that he has done above, and others have shown their support for him.

I am not meaning to appear to be on a high horse, I find some of the titles that people have given me rather amusing. Could you explain how I am appearing to be?

The above links I mentioned were PMd to me by someone during this conversation here. I was unaware of them.

then why not make that perfectly clear upon posting them? you seemed very eager to clarify all your actions in this matter

wait wait, i just searched a bit by going back in this thread and i posted the links to Tarnicus via PM , so he couldn't have posted them previously

Users should interact through PMs in those cases; to avoid such issues .

I'm not very fond of about what Tarnicus did, but someone would have do this sooner or later due to the lack of moderation in this forums.

The questioner is being questioned.
This is better than TV.
