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.

Honestly?
I've said it before - I had no previous ill will towards Nerd. NONE whatsoever! I'm not a part of some mob mentality (as you've obviously implied) I don't have a problem with morphs, I don't have a problem with hybrids. I only had a problem with what I saw. Now the only reason I bring that last paragraph to the table is to set it for my next statement...
Honestly - what would I take home from that? I think that a lot of people would rather this kid be dead wrong than think that NERD could do any wrong. You all wanted to kill the messenger.
But you're dragging your heels here. If what he did wasn't wrong I want someone to admit it. If that's the case then maybe we can ALL give people we havent done business with a bad guy certification. If we all did that then the whole bad guy certification becomes no different than Rep power.
Bottom line is that he SHOULDN'T have given a bad guy certification to NERD. ANd all of you people that gave bad guy certification to Bill shouldn't have either.
It's really quite simple.

OK, one last time boys and girls. Read my posts in that thread. All of them. Then take two aspirin and do not call me in the morning. And Karen, be mindful of the fact that I said I was unhappy about the content of the pictures long before I knew who it was who was in them. I am NOT going to rehash this again. Now if you want to get personal, do it with your vibrator please, not with me. I am simply no longer interested in yesterday's news.

He didn't know the context of the pictures I.E. the captions that went with them. He know good and well who was in the pictures and so did a lot of other people. Mainly because I am pretty sure in that original post on TRR it stated Kevin was in them. And how did I know?? Because it was in the frigging captions posted on their forum..
So how does this "Good Guy" thing hold any water when people who have NOT DONE BUSINESSwithe the individual you are rushing out to vote a bad guy now in light of new developments?? You jump David for doing that but it is all well and good for others here to do the same?? Explain that one why don't you because this should be a hum dinger..

I have no ill will towards NERD either. Heck I liked Kara a whole lot after we had a nice conversation about peachfaced lovebird morphs. I simply will not stand by and watch people do what they did.
So answer the question somebody please. If you HAVE NOT DONE BUSINESS with an individual, CAN YOU VOTE ON THEIR GOOD GUY CERTIFICATION?
I've got some votin' to do because obviously you don't have to do business with a person to vote, that has been proven with Bill's cert. form.

You should have a complete list of who to vote for from me in a few Karen if you are going to do that.

Nice fog, and very proffesional too...
Please Try again.
We have two cases of the exact same thing happening here. Both were a case of people who hadn't done business with someone giving a bad guy certification. Both were cases where it was conclusively proven that the "bad event" actually occured.
Now forgeting for a moment all the crap about NERD, it's really a basic question. If anyone can give someone a bad guy certification in the light of an obvious wrongdoing - how is that distiguished from simple rep power?
It should obviously only be from someone who did business with the person.

And if you didn't have any business dealings with that person or business you shouldn't be issuing bad rep points. Or is it just do as I say and not as I do around here??

Whoa.
Okay, to not entirely join in on all of the off-topic posts, I will state that I think the Good Guy certification award has done it's job entirely. I don't understand what the problem is. Bill was a good guy. He had the certificate. Bill f'ed up. He's losing his certificate. Done deal. Good guy no more.
Jim, I have a great deal of respect for you, but to be completely honest, I am disgusted by the attitude it seems you've delevoped toward Karen. I do believe you owe her a sincere apology for that remark.
Although the wording of the Good Guy poll description (thanks Karen) does not state that you HAVE to conduct a transaction with a person for whom you are voting, I think it's pretty obvious that it is intended that you have done so. Maybe I'm wrong, but the wording is such that it does require a person to make an intrepretation.

Thank you. This really isn't about NERD. It's about the very nature of the system. The NERD example was perfectly placed, and not off topic. It was simply used to illustrate a very important point. Which by the way - has been made quite succintly.

I agree.
The problem is this:
Can you vote + or - for a person on their Good Guy Cert. if you HAVE NOT done business with them.
On another thread two people who voted - for Bill demanded another person (David) to retract his - vote for NERD because he had no business dealings with them.
We cannot have it both ways. I do not agree with what NERD did and I WILL GIVE THEM A - VOTE as soon as it is deemed the correct way to participate in the Good Guy Cert. forum.
