Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

Now why did Dennis1 vote neg on Jim, pure personal I'm sure.
But thats all OK according to the rules.
I have a neg from 4 people, only 1 of those have I ever had a deal or contact with, the other 3 made that vote for personal reasons Best I can guess since none of the 3 have ever dealt with me, sold to me or bought from me.
And my 1 true negative in turn sold me some awesome leos this year, maybe my fault for buying from someone that thought I was scum or theirs for selling to someone they voted to be scum. Then it could be the almighty dollar, who cares lets just get some cash!

The difference Wendy is maybe the people voted in regards to the way you did business. I am not sure in your case. Take for instance Bills thread people voted including me that he is a bad guy based on a transaction he actually had not that I dislike him personally.
This is the rule, clearly stated

Well, this is where this section comes in. This is a proactive method for people to know the good guys to deal with by them having a certification medallion displayed on their website that indicates them being in good standing with the members of this site in relation to how they do business.

Rich did express that anyone could vote but it should at least be in regards to a transaction of some sort, don't you think?

You as a person, I think that is a hidden quality, I think that possibly the worst side of you was seen here by a few to many and the good side has been overlooked or not presented in a way that others take it in Will.
I just got my first real snake, a ball Python which I love and he is on my step by step plan to build up to and ETB or GTP.
That is my dream snake but I gotta start somewhere.
The past is the past, some let it go faster than others, me I let it go really fast, I found out from my mom a long long time ago that if what another person thinks, feels or says does not cause a negative reaction to my life then its not an issue.
Everyone feels and thinks differently, you have your ideas just as I have mine, are you right, probably not, am I, probably not but there may be a happy medium if one was to look for it.

Now would you still say that if i were to tell you i stand by every word i said
I am not looking for forgivness for having a different beleif than others
I am not the one with the problem
The ones twisting my words out of context and sending emails to others with Outright lies in them are the ones with the problem
I could care less if Those kind of people like me or not as they cannot affect me or my veiws they can only make them stronger and make them(detractors) seem childish
But enough about that i am going to let my detractors(i just learned that word and i like it) get me down
got any ideas for my next "Reward"?

Another 2 cents for the jar.
I have nothing against you handing out "rewards" to people. Honestly, coming from some it would seem a very kind gesture indeed. The problem lies within your stipulation that a good guy post must be made about this transaction. I have generally thought of the BOI as being a place for someone to post about a transaction that completely left them awestruck, be it in a positive or negative way. The true sign of a person deserving of a "good guy thread" imo is being humble. One who would not expect, insinuate or bribe someone into thinking or saying that they are a good guy. Anything less would strip the validity from the system and further skew the line between good and bad. It is bad enough that we have good guys doing bad things, we need not have someone trump up their status as a means to make a name for themselves or gain acceptance in the community.

A real good guy would not solicit a "good-guy" post in the terms of a transaction or trade, etc.
A real good guy would do what is necessary to conduct themselves in a business matter deserving of such praise and then possibly receive such praise unsolicited, it is up to the other party. Not a term to be set.
This alone makes you a bad guy in my book. Take it however you wish........... I have better things to do than argue with the likes of you, but it does not stop me from giving you my .02 and moving on.
Good day.

Sounds hypocritical to me. You are doing the exact same thing you have shown to be so adamantly against. You are soliciting a Good Guy thread for the snakes. Sounds a lot like the men soliciting you and your friends for sex in the parks. They were asking for something they wanted and offering a "reward" just as you are here. Now if it's wrong for them to ask for something they want but it's okay for you to ask for something you want that is hypocritical. FYI, both instances are sickening.
In other words dennis, you are acting no better that the spammers, telemarketers, pedophiles you met in the park, or the hooker standing on the corner. You are prostituting yourself for a Good Guy thread.
