    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Steven and I set up a trade for a corn pair swap, and arranged for it a week ago last monday. He kept pushing the date back further and further, and i emailed him daily. Now I get no response. Just kind of weird that he would just up and disapear on me like that. Let me know if anyone has done business with him before. But as of now it seems like he was trying to scam me, by waiting until the end of the day and asking if i shipped, and saying he couldn't that day.So looking for some info but as of now to me he's a bad guy.
Thanks in advance for any info;

Have you let him know a heads up about this thread for his response?
 
Yes I know. A very close call. But I just kinda had this gut feeling from the begining ya know? Like I knew what the situation was going to be like. It was very sketchy, and I like to buy/trade/or sell with confidence. No one should ever have to second guess their actions, but there are deffinatly those types of people out there. As for notifying him, no I haven't. But I'm guessing I should, just to give him a chance to defend himself. I'm guessing he's just going to repeat everything he said to me. But like I said I'm not accusing him of anything what so ever. Just trying to pull up some info and see what his past shows.
Thanks for the insight guys;

Cant get in trouble for informing the public, thats what the info part of the BOI is for. Maybe he's not a scammer, but not a good trader.

Gut feeling is good to go with these days. Goddamn scammers popping up everywhere.
 
Yep, Thats why I personally really appreciate this BOI forum, and others who are newer to the site should really learn the features and tools of it. Exactly what you said Pav, "maybe he's not a scammer, but not a good trader". And the gut feeling's a given idk what it is in us. Maybe just a sixth sense.lol
 
Oooo, and Tinman, I really like what you work with. Honestly Identical to what I like and love. Burms, Corns, and Balls. My honest to god top three snakes:). I checked out your site and I look forward to seeing what your future projects turn out like. Best of luck with those. And Pav, your Mojave's are astounding!
