This shows how completely ignorant you are of the situation, yet you still have no trouble claiming authority on the subject.


Thanks. It gets a bit old that every time I try to make a point about the trust 3 or 4 of the same brown nosing lackeys go right into accusations of various types trying to discredit my point some how as if what I went thru is an isolated incident that has nothing to do with all the other similar incidents of abuse here.

The reason I am targeted so heavily for this is because unlike 90% of the people who make these complaints, I have an extensive trade history here with good ratings, making it very difficult for them to marginalize me as a scammer or sock puppet, so they have to resort to attacking my reputation, or threatening administrative action. This is also part of their strategy to bait me into having an off topic discussion so they can then report me and get my posts removed, as well as potentially ban me.




I posted here in this thread because I find it relevant as I see many of the same patterns of behavior happening against tspacepilot. Yes he is very vocal, but considering the fact that the system is design to narrow his options to practically nothing except making posts, as long as he is not abusively spamming up the forum with endless topics, he should be allowed to talk for as long as he likes regardless if anyone likes it or not. In reality, this isn't hurting anyone.

I find the fact that Badbear is trying to limit his ability to speak is telling and behavior I recognise from my own interactions when my words became inconvenient for him. When you catch his ire suddenly all kinds of rules that were never a problem before suddenly need to be enforced. As I said previously not only was I threatened with a permaban several times for being "off topic", even in my own threads, he even blocked me from sending him PMs in spite of the fact I have only sent him a handful of messages the entire time I have been here. He is just that annoyed with me and will do anything he can get away with to take punitive action in order to get me to shut up and tow the line. I find people here in general don't give a shit about anything until it effects them personally, or they can get some kind of entertainment value out of it, and I don't see any reason why this case is any different.

As far as Tomatocage, I find his ratings are usually accurate, and he is reasonable in general, but unfortunately he does not apply the same careful attitude to his trust list. This is not the first time TC has given authority to trust system abusers and allowed them to continue with their behavior.
