This Business with mods being in bed with scammers.

[olympia4ever]

It is unfortuanate that there are so many scammers out there, its always unfair when someone loses their hard earned cash to a theif, however there is one way to totally stop yourself from getting conned again. Do not buy from the net, I dont know about you but if i want gear i get it from friends at the gym who i train with regularly, they have friends with pro's (who are obviously on top shit). I have 99% faith in my friends, yet if i were to buy off the net i guess that would be reduced to about 30 %. Sometimes friends cant get everything, in england it seems impossible to get primo now, esspecially primo depot...but at least the gear will be legit and youll get it.
When you buy illegal drugs in my opinion you cant trust the net because afterall you are buying an illegal substance...however if you know the person you are buying off, and see him very regularly then it is not very likely he or even she will scam you, if they do then you know what to do. This is not a told you so, because i feel pissed off that thieving b**stards roam around good sites such as this to profit as thieves. But perhaps it shows that the net can not be trusted and the only way to get gear 100% is throgh a proper meet in real life with someone you trust and see regularly cos if something goes wrong, you always have your animal instincts. Train hard, people, thanx, bye.

A mod better be damn sure when recommending a source. And no they can't be all that sure just because they were fronted some gear.

Good post. I agree with you on everything except that I wouldn't expect many sources to be willing to provide their personal information to anyone.

I agree

OK first, how the hell can anybody be "dam sure"? Recommending a source is the same as recommending a stock. You may be "dam sure" the stock will go up, then the shit crashes. You are saying that we are supposed to be gods who can see into the future and know when a good source will go bad. That's just plain stupid. How about this, mods won't give out any sources nor will we do source checks and we'll see if you are better off????

By only backing a source that has a long history of pleasing customers and not just a source that fronted them fear. I think this whole gear fronting for favors has gone too far and is part of the reason people get the idea mods are in bed with some scammers.

A stock-brocker will tell you if the stock you are buying is a very sound and safe (companies that have been around for awhile and are in a safer type of business) buy or if it is a risky stock (start-up companies in a new unproven market). If a stock-broker guarantees a safe buy and doesn't deliver they have been known to get sued. A mod shouldn't recommend a new risky source as a good guy just because they have been fronted gear to do so.

BS DID have a long history of pleasing customers.

The stock market is a risky financial asset, and no one can guarantee a certain return on equity. Debt instruments are a different story, but their is still a level of default associated with all private sector investments.

people just want a sure fire way of getting there gear....and the reality is that good people do bad things and that will never change...Mods simply vouch for people and thats all they can do and all we should expect from them.....What do you people think ?...Do you think that Manny78, M18, WCP, Quadsweep and HuckFinn all call up Bullsperm, OrganonCanon and every other scammer scumbag and go out have a few beers and laugh about how much money they all made this week from fucking people over....No it's not like that... So one should assume That this is all a game sometimes you win{recieve your gear} and somtimes you lose{get scammed}....this is another aspect of the game...

A stockbroker also gets paid quite a bit of money for that info. And for the life of me, I can't ever remember you sending me any money. How about this, you pay me several thousand dollars, and I will 'make damn sure' the sources I recommend to you are good ones.

Deal? Because that would be the only fair way to go about it, now wouldn't it?

Stockbrokers generally get paid on commission, a percentage of what they sold which is usually 10 percent or so. If you told me you wanted 400-600 percent extra of what I buy for sound financial advise I'd tell you to go to hell. On the other hand, sources will often make it quite worthwhile for a mod to recommend them.

Seems like some mods want the best of both worlds. They want the fruits of recommending a source but don't want anything that goes wrong with the source to be transferred onto himself. All I said was a mod should be damn sure about the sources they recommend and there are better ways to go about making sure than just being fronted gear. When someone backs a person they are backing that person with their reputation.
