This is a very generous community of BOTL/SOTL. There have been several instances since I've been a member when someone with bad intentions takes advantage. Should we establish a rogues gallery to call them out? The threat of being named may serve as a deterrent.

If someone got burned on a trade and has contacted that person without resolving the issue then we should be aware.

However, I think this needs to be a "stiff" or disappear, rather than a "not equal" kinda thing. I'd hate to see a noob called out for not equaling a vet.

If I could recall who received my SS in 2011, he's on the list! (I'll look it up and add his screen name in the future) Got my goods and was never heard from again.

Most other boards have something like this -- trader rating, trade feedback, etc. Trade etiquette is heavily policed. Heck, some guys get called out for not responding to emails fast enough and backing out of a transaction before it is consummated. I'd hate to see that type of thing here. And I could not agree more that if we do anything like this, it should not include trades perceived to be lopsided or PIB-PIF trades that didn't contain enough sticks, etc. In my view, any list should be limited to theft or known sellers of fakes. For those who don't already know, there is an actual scumbag list maintained by another board. To put someone on it, you need to prove your case to the guy who runs it by giving him the emails, texts, etc. I've seen a couple of people on that list here viewing threads from time to time. Jmho.

Put your big boy pants on and figure it out by yourself. Talk to others and make sure you know what you're doing before a trade and who you are trading with. Make the trade clear and public. Cut the highschool backwater **** out. It's pretty simple.

And take a breath before you cry. I can remember at least one time when I may have screwed a box pass because I didn't realize the proper value of either stick. I figured it out later and was mortified. I've made up for it in other ways.

Even with a list there will always be risk. If you can't afford the risk buy your own cigars smoke them and have fun. Better yet send things to people with no expectations. That way your vagina won't get bruised.

It's been done this way for ever and there's never been a need for a list. A list will cause more problems than good, and much more drama (one reason I may change my mind so I can get a good laugh). Who has final say on the list anyway? RAM?

This place goes in cycles. In general my inclination is not to have knee-jerk reactions to things and say oh we need to fix it because all of a sudden there's a little problem. Normally responding to something that happens in the moment in an environment that's been around for a long time and has managed to survive without the change is a dumb idea.

I also think the same about those that always want to change the constitution just because something happening now is the unpleasant to them. Stay the course the ship will get there everyone will be fine.

That's just my opinion your craziness may vary.

So eff you all.

If y'all think you have been in some bad trades think of whistlebritches and soon drafter. They have no idea I've actually been using that butt plug I sent. The excersices have actually paid off. I can walk around with it in for an entire work day. Around Christmas u could only go about five minutes.

I'm sure drafter will break my record though.

I guess what I am trying to get across is Man up and do or don't do trades I never hear anyone complain about someone returning fire above and beyond what they sent.

So I guess what you lose on the apples you make up for on the oranges. And I know you did not realize we was trading apples and oranges but try to read between the lines. ( I understand some things is just to hard for some folks)

Sorry WB. I did remove the big chunks and wiped it off with a paper towel prior to sending it though.

The plug worked way better than that BTL. More natural shape I guess.
