sorry to say this but you bought off someone on here who has a total of TEN POSTS  :huh: :shocked: :lipsrsealed:



I have to agree, I dont even trust ebay let alone some random of a forum?

P.s was there some kinda argument on this thread last night as one of my posts vanished without any explanation from mods

Mods don't have to give an explanation for anything.  :grin:

He can be banned and most likely is/will be, but he can easily come back with a different IP address and do it all again under a different account name. He's been here on more than one occasion and there is no solid way unless there is someone dedicated to checking everyone's IP addresses each and every minute (which there isn't).

toomany is banned  :smiley:

alas no, that USERNAME is, he has had a few on here i think you will find.

as will his IP, but as the admin will confirm, dependant on his service provider, then a few people on here could come under the same company thus would mean banning innocent folk too.

The only way to stop getting scammed is use COMMON SENSE  :smiley:
