OT - Mean-Spiritedness

[frikativ54]

Hi Forum Members,

I want to share a concern that I have. In a thread about Bagwell items, I asked if the seller had any Bagwell cleats. The result was the following:

"then i get 3 more emails from anonymuos people who tell me what a mistake i would make selling anything to frikativ54. so to answer you all, i am not selling anything else."

I am appalled that there are people who read the forum whose goal it is to make sure that I don't get any more Bagwell items. What has this forum come to that this kind of behavior is even acceptable?

To the person sending these emails, you owe me an apology. Come forward and admit your actions. You poisoned the well, and you should be suspended from the Game Used Forums.

This kind of garbage is the reason that I limit my time on this website.

Where is the thread that you are referring to? I am not able to find it.

It was deleted at the poster's request. You posted in it, and the guy was trying to sell Rangers' and Astros' items. Midway through the thread, the seller posted that he received three anonymous emails not to sell to me.

Pretty pathetic if this did happen. Then people wonder why the hobby is dead or people leave the hobby.

It's amazing how much cr@p happens because of a used piece of clothing or a bat or ball.

Re: OT - Mean-Spiritedness

I did not read that deeply into the thread. Someone was looking for Bagwell/Biggio items and that was what caught my attention.
Unfortunately there are at least 3 people that have had something other then a postive experience with you as a buyer.

Why would someone say such a thing? Did you possibly buy something in the past from someone here, and then not pay? Did you return something damaged that wasn't when you received it? I just don't understand.

Can people not act their age.

Ignore it, Ive said this many times. If you dont like what their saying or doing, move on and ignore it. Its the adult thing to do. Then again there are too many people on this forum that like to be centered around the drama that they are causing.

Grow Up!

That's weird. I have only had transactions with three board members, and two of them were positive. Perhaps the same person wrote in three times. Or maybe someone else has a grudge against me. Who knows. I just don't think that should be going on on Game Used Universe.

Buster:
If you are looking for Bagwell/Biggio/Astros GU items please email me. I have some items you may be interested in.

I feel for you Frik. There are 2 many people on here that their whole purpose is to cause trouble. This place needs some Mods to clean the crap up.

Really ? YOU just dumped on my thread. Why didnt you ignore that one ?

Thanks. I know what you mean. You'd think I could post a question about Bagwell cleats in peace, without knowing that some seller gets three anonymous emails not to sell to me.

And in answer to another question, I have always paid for my items. Never returned one thing on Game Used Universe. Matter of fact, I've only been involved with a few transactions with members of this site.

What is this site coming to?

Jays1fan,

The trouble you are referring to seems to be something that happened off this site, yet she brought it to the forum and posted about it. Maybe it's that kind of activity that causes a lot of the problems here? I don't know, just saying maybe. The mods can't do anything about activity that occurs our of the arena they moderate, right?

As grenda12 mentioned, maybe the best approach is to just ignore the nonsense. If one receives an unfriendly email, just forget it. I'm sure we all have gotten one or two of those in our lifetimes. If the bad stuff doesn't get posted here, no one can react to it. Calling out for people to get kicked off the forum, when we don't even know who we're talking about, seems silly, don't you think?

The situation is not as easy as just forgetting about it. If I am to have equal access to the site, I should be able to post freely without other members sending out messages that people ought not to deal with me. Obviously, someone is holding a grudge against me. For what, I do not know, but it's pretty rude to send emails that people should not deal with me. If I have done something wrong, I would like to hear about it. Until then, I think it's only fair to ask for an explanation.

I thought I read that right. This is what I am talking about. To many idiots that just get away with posting Crap. Same trouble makers all the time.
Funny that The thread you are referring to got deleted. The mods chose to just lock mine and leave it up. Then , the same trouble makers go and start up on another thread of mine and make NEW Member names just to post on it.
