profanity. like this ain't a reason for it. lets just mollycoddle this guy until he steals his grandmother's bedroon slippe

No, this isn't a reason for any profanity in this forum. No matter how upset you are. Especially in an open forum setting. It adds nothing but heat instead of light and subverts any helpful advice given. We mollycoddle noone.
 
Just an addendum, take your sob story to a 12 step meeting and see what they tell you. You won't get any attaboys there. You have the right to make amends, but not to expect forgiveness. Expectations are premeditated resentments.

Wish we could all be as perfect as you obviously are Brandon..........

Since that is only a wish and highly unlikely, the rest of us will have to just learn from our mistakes as we go.
 
How do you go from lying thief to perfect? We have ALL screwed up, most of us not this egregiously. Why don't you pay his debt? When you're finished you can move in with him. Then you can cook his dinner and wipe his can when he's finished.
 
This is why I don't trade, buy, sell, etc. over internet forums. It's too easy by far for some dirtbag to fleece you of your money or gear - there being no accountability whatsoever between the participants.
There is accountability....look at what the members have said in regards to the deal gone wrong. I value this forum and screwing it up would cost me more than a knife that I could replace.
 
The great folks here outnumber the lowlife rejects 5000 to 1. I can't fathom why a thief would get any support, on any level. Has it ever happened before? If so, I'd love a link to the thread where a fellow committed PREMEDITATED THEFT and got a free pass.

I can see why new folks wouldn't want to trade here........oh he screwed that guy, but he apologized. Please, let me send my money to somebody on BF I have never met.

Does that make any sense?
 
If I personally send Jason the money he is out will someone ban this guy?

He is a liability to the whole board.

Brandon has a point here, but I also feel his over aggressive way of making that point in the long run will not benefit anyone.
Two things; never put yourself knowingly in a position where you have to apologize, and do not fight unnecessary wars!

There is no light without heat. Google it.

I seldom apologize for something I believe in, and keeping thieves off the board is an ABSOLUTELY necessary war.

It's not your war to fight, nor your place to decide. Argumentativeness/infighting will close this thread.

The only reason sogtrident7 is still here is to make apologies and restitution to the party/ies involved.
Others may state their opinion and move on.
 
I have already stated I will send Jason the funds he is owed if somebody bans this turd. No kidding, I have Paypal at the ready.

Every second he is here MAKES THE WHOLE FORUM LOOK BAD.

So as soon as sogtrident7 repays Jason, or a reasonable amount of time has passed without him doing so, he will be banned?

I certainly hope so.

Let him rebuild his character somewhere else if he can. And while I sincerely hope he can, I for one think he has burned his bridge here. It would be irresponsible to expose the good members here to a known threat like him.
 
Maybe next time just go ahead and say what you really mean. You won't have this awkward mix up again. Thanks..

Ok, without expressing any judgement on the initial post or the issues raised, I have to say this made me laugh out loud. You have a sense of humor, and hopefully that will aid you in your quest.

I'd also like to express a deep appreciation for the opportunity to witness the exchange of thoughts, feelings, and perspectives in this thread. It really illustrates the humanity present in this forum, however it turns out.
 
Well you blew that one... but for me, I believe a man ought to have a second chance. Therefor if there happens to be a future trade between us I'll trust you.
I Hope others here are willing to do the same for your sake.
I hope you continue in the right path. Good luck
 
I did that in my first post in this thread. The fact that your drug addled mind can't comprehend basic written English doesn't change the facts.

More shit has been stolen by addicts with three months clean than all the law abiding citizens of America combined. Get over yourself, and go to a meeting everyday. There MAY be hope for you yet, but not on BladeForums.

As someone else just pointed out, I don't agree with OP or what he did and I would never deal with him personally, but that was pretty funny that while Brandon was getting riled up he didn't sense any of the sarcasm being poured on by sogtrident7. I'd never trust OP with anything I own or any people I love/remotely care for, but I'd have a beer with him. As long as he stays out of arms reach of my pockets and I had a couple friends with me who had my back haha.
 
This is akin to letting your cousin date a known rapist. Call it what you will, but nothing good will come of it.
 
Arggh Matey, your right. I may have jumped the gun me judging a man before I've walked a mile in his shoes.

Shawn B, I don't know if you're taking a cheap shot at me or what. God teaches that we (I) must forgive but I don't have to trust the OP to do business with or to rub elbows with. I agree (and I can't believe I'm seeing eye to eye with :)) four_shore posting below:

i couldn't bring myself to be forgiving of this situation.

i'm not trying to be mean but that was just too damn low...

mods should have zero tolerance for this behavior.

it baffles me how certain minor mistakes easily lead to infractions but somehow this guy is still cruising around on the forums????

sure he's doing the right thing by apologizing and admitting the laundry list of wrongdoings done here but the fact remains that this community is build on

trust. how could anybody forgive you when you haven't even done it monetarily yet?

talk is cheap...
 
OP, you are the scum of the Earth. You are a liar and a thief, even if you had a change of heart. People like you deserve to be in jail.

Stealing is bad enough, but stealing from someone who trusted you is even worse. If you got hit by a bus tomorrow, you would not be missed, (well except by the folks you owe money or goods) and I KNOW the world would be a better place.

Imagine the wrong-doer is a close friend of yours or even your own kid, will you show him the right way and just condemn him him till no point of return.

Human makes mistake....and human learnt more from mistake rather than success....
