One pet peeve I have (aside form the obvious here) is people who post a blog, and then skip out without sticking around to either respond to comments or make additional points.
If you're going to make a post, then BE A PART OF IT!
I am just now able to get back on here due to work. Just like this site is for sources to be honest through rating and reviews, I was thinking it should go both ways with repercussions for all scammers.
Why did you not tell BFG your real intent when you asked for this post? Obviously you lied by omitting info. He would never allow you to post someone's personal info like that. It not cool ever! A scam is fucked up and when it's happened in the past, we've taken some extreme measures against ***SOURCES not other individuals who may or may not have taken a couple hundred bucks. For you to post that and other ppl to say shit like "I called his girl, emailed his grandma" or whatever other dumb shit ppl said is fucked up. You think it's ok to get someone's family involved just because you lost $200?***
As I wrote below it is not close to the same thing. a source has the ability to steal and deceive many as one scammer can easily be nullified by the source himself and the mods. You could have posted the story but not all that personal information. There is or at least should be a code of anonymity around here we are talking about ruining a persons life potentially for a coupon theft? I also have no respect for Special Blendz for giving you that info either that was an all out bad move for their credibility.
@ Pank- At this point I think we need to give special blendz the benefit of doubt. Id like to hear their side of this story. If OP is willing to make false claims about bfg approval im sure he's willing to implicate special blendz for no good reason.
I agree that is a very good point! I do like believe what Nitti said that the OP did misunderstand BFG's point. But still as a grown man it was a bad choice no matter what. Your point is valid about special blendz though as I am going by pure assumption. But one thing that is a fact is someone somewhere gave him that info.
@ Booty- You obviously have an excellent instinct when it comes to dealing out punishment. What should your punishment be for posting personal information and lying about mod approval?
I did not lie! There was an email sent by me to BFG and a reply was sent saying it is usually not allowed but in this case it would be. It appears he did not know I would post everything I had on this son of bitch. As for the info, it was a reaction to a action that was wrong! If you go anywhere and start stealing, expect consequences.
I WILL go back to that email later and reread it. IF I did not mention posting the thieves info, I WILL come back on here and state that I did not tell BFG my full intention and that BFG did not authorize the personal info. It was a good sized message that I sent BFG telling the whole story about what happened so I don't remember everything that was written. It maybe a day or 2 before I can get back on here but I WILL make one last post to hopefully end this thread since the post was deleted and I WILL be honest about it.
And I've been nice enough to leave this up and give you an opportunity to respond. If it was a mistake then fine! But there is never an instance where any member of the mod team or the admin himself will allow a post like that!! NEVER!! We aren't throwing hissy fits just because we get pissed off! The coupon thing was one thing, posting all tabs personal shit and dudes family info, fuck that!! If you got into a fight and got your ass kicked , are you gonna call the cops on the guy who beat you up just because your ego is hurt? That's cowardice! If that dude has a family, kids, a wife, they have nothing to do with his douchebaggery!! The fact that you didn't consider that is what pissed everyone off. And throwing BFG under the bus like that. That pissed me off!! Now we can discuss it further in private if you want. This fucking thread is getting locked down!
Might be best to start any blog which has the potetial to be inflamatory at a time when you can be there for the fireworks----because they come rather quickly here on eroids. Any time I post stuff like that I don't have to wait long for the fallout.
But I think most people agree with your basic premise that scammers should be held accountable----or at least eroiders should know they are there......just have to find the right way to get info out without the personal stuff.
The only reason I'm not going to ban you is because it was mostly a misunderstanding. I think you knew better than to even ask if it was ok to go as far as you did. Just so everyone is clear, what he did is NOT OK! Nobody would ever have a green light to post anything like that so don't be discouraged about your faith in this site or its integrity. No way that shit would fly here. It was a mis cue.
I have been around a while and I do remember a certain source with the initials A.B. He posted someones info on eroids because of a pulled payment on a order that was already shipped if I remember correctly and several eroids members came together and leaned on that person. I believe A.B. got his money. I was not planning on the same thing happening though. I was mainly warning all members about their coupons if they still had them and all sources who get this information for a shipment should get the money first. Don't trust this P.O.S.
Thank you for the reassurance. I was appalled by this post I know it doesn't matter because I'm just 1 guy with an opinion. I'm glad this is not what I signed up for and I hope I'm on eroids for a long long time. For me it's all about integrity And I believe you have integrity also. We may Butt heads now and then but we are both in agreement about protecting the integrity of this site
I will go back and reread that email and post back when I get time in a day or two. I am pretty sure I mentioned having the thieves info. I am not sure though if I asked you straight out in that email if I could post it. If my full intention was not clear, I apologize.
I'm glad I'm reading that BFG. Not to say my advice means a hill of beans but I knew something was definitely wrong with this whole post. He should be banned imo.
I TRIPLE CHECKED YOUR CLAIN BFG ALLOWED THIS POST..... NO WAY MAN .. I UNDERSTAND YOUR POINT HERE BUT WE CANNOT ALLOW THIS ON EROIDS IT IS WAY OUT OF OUR POLICY.... TAKE IT UP WITH THE SRCS BUT DO NOT RE-POST IN PUBLIC FORUMS AND PLEASE DO NOT EVER BRING BFG INTO YOUR PROBLEMS OR YOUR TIME HERE WILL BE VERY SHORT OK.
Whilst I get why your pissed off, the phrase "huge over reaction" springs to mind. Your source should make its processes more secure. The fact that they have given you this information should be enough of a reason to stop anyone doing business with them.
When you say BFG allowed this, did you get his permission?
There are some people in this damn world you don't screw with. I happen to be one of them. I did clear the idea with BFG, I will have to go back to the email to see if I mentioned posting his info. The source knew it had been stolen after speaking with me and that person don't like damn thieves either so they didn't care what I did with the information.
It doesn't matter what you believe it's still not your fight. You don't know what actually happened. You weren't there you have no business jumping in. You do however have a right to express your opinion but that is it!
QUIT WITH THE NAMES AND EMAILS IN OPEN FORUMS... YOU KNOW BETTER!... IVE NOTICED LATELY THE FRICTION YOU LIKE TO CAUSE ON CERTAIN THREADS.. KNOCK THAT OFF TOO FROM RIGHT NOW OR FIND A NEW HOME.
Fair enough about the names. In regards to my friction causing, sorry i cant handle cry babies and people who irresponsibly give out cycle "advice". If trying to make sure people dont run tren without a test base among other interesting "advice" is wrong then please say so.
Neither can I brother, and I see no reason you should change your thoughts on that point..... my point is making sure this ship runs smooth and moderate rule breaches ... make your point but stay clear from starting fights ok.
If I had to guess, he's prolly just got done with his first year of college or some shit if you look at the address. Sounds like a campus address. Prolly never changed his high school name
I address this to the Op personally I think you are dealing out $50000.00 worth of punishment for a $500.00 crime. I agree this guy is a scum bag. To me personally when comes to exposing someone for jail though I don't see much of difference from ratting out someone. I think this person should be banned, blacklisted by every source here and even sent an email. Saying we have all your info don't ever come around here again.
I assume since this was made a public post it is also open to discussion unless I misinterpreted the intent. I respect BFG to run his site however he sees fit. Personally it would make me leery to ever order from Special Blendz do to the giving out of such personal info. Granted I would never pull a suck head play like what this guy did but knowing sources are giving out this much personal info and with what ramifications could follow I don't agree. The dumb ass who did this is not a source who has the ability to rip off the multitudes.
Just my opinion as a member here with concerns about anonymity.
I would not worry about your personal info unless you are screwing people over. I was the only one that was suppose to know that coupon code and the former source made sure I was the person I said I was by requesting information before the personal information was given out.
I don't worry about my personal info as nothing would ever come close to getting back to me. It is the principle of the matter. I have no problem with the source dealing with this guy directly I would have no problem if you paid him a visit with that information and gave him an ass whooping. I do have a problem with ratting on anybody for anything.
pankration I thought the same thing about the source giving out this info to another customer. I'd like to think that my source would NEVER EVER give out my personal information. I wouldn't do this kind of crap either. We have so little information about what the real circumstances are. Who's to say that somehow this wasn't some sort of error on the part of the source. The source should have also made this whole thing rock solid hard for this kind of shiat to happen. Seems to me someone just exploited a huge loophole the source left wide open and NO I'm not saying the thief is right. The thief deserves to be blacklisted since many of us wouldn't think of pulling this kind of stuff on our fellow members.
SeaHawkThere are lies, damned lies, and everything Booty says

Listen, there's no need! It's a dead issue. I'm sure you get the point now right?
Might be best to start any blog which has the potetial to be inflamatory at a time when you can be there for the fireworks----because they come rather quickly here on eroids. Any time I post stuff like that I don't have to wait long for the fallout.
But I think most people agree with your basic premise that scammers should be held accountable----or at least eroiders should know they are there......just have to find the right way to get info out without the personal stuff.
SeaHawkX2 Cut and run. Pathetic. If I HAD to have a beer with one of these guys Id rather sit down with a scammer than OP.
I agree it is called accountability for ones words and actions.

This is reassuring to hear!
I thought you were going to simply explain what happened with your coupon, not post personal info of the person you believe stole your coupon.
I will go back and reread that email and post back when I get time in a day or two. I am pretty sure I mentioned having the thieves info. I am not sure though if I asked you straight out in that email if I could post it. If my full intention was not clear, I apologize.
I'm glad I'm reading that BFG. Not to say my advice means a hill of beans but I knew something was definitely wrong with this whole post. He should be banned imo.
If BFG says he didn't give you a green light for this, you're gone for lying!

Thank you! I was questioning if this site was really something I wanted to be a part of anymore because of this....
Obviously shit like that is unacceptable. You see something sketchy, contact one of us

I think this is bad form period! This thread should come down now.....
I anonymously emailed his girlfriend and various family members...too far?
You should stay the f@&k out of it. It's not your fight!
People around here believe in point based karma. I believe in actions
It doesn't matter what you believe it's still not your fight. You don't know what actually happened. You weren't there you have no business jumping in. You do however have a right to express your opinion but that is it!
Exactly NC. No one knows the full story anyways.
EDIT
That's him, from Pennsylvania. Looks like a little bitch.
I am guessing that was a link to a social media site, but it was taken down before I saw it. Thanks for trying to help!

Convo over.
SeaHawkHis girlfriend looks slutty enough. She lives a few minutes from me.
pretty sure he's a high school kid.
If I had to guess, he's prolly just got done with his first year of college or some shit if you look at the address. Sounds like a campus address. Prolly never changed his high school name

I would have loved to go to P.A. but I am nowhere near there and I have to work every damn day to get my money unlike some sorry ass thief in P.A.
I agree, this is not good on many levels. I am surprised this thread is still up.
SeaHawkGood point. The fact that Special Blendz gave out personal information is a much larger issue that a single pack scammer.
pankration I thought the same thing about the source giving out this info to another customer. I'd like to think that my source would NEVER EVER give out my personal information.
