Why is there a $500 limit on the forum

Re: Why is there a $500 limit on the forum

Ok, I got ya. I did notice that Aaron had a few accounts, none of which it appeared he was discreetly hiding.....

His post got deleted last week when he listed all of his Steiner bats. Guess they finally decided he was a dealer. Within 10 min. of that happening, he opened up a new GUU account and changed his email and relisted the same bats. Well, that got deleted as well. He was also promoting his own items from Ebay when someone asked about him as a seller, using this new username also.

Im a bit surprised myself that he didnt get any disciplinary action. That probably would have gotten me banned, but, I dont make the rules.

Kinda crappy with the whole new username if ya ask me.

Ricardo - Mr.3000 was referring to poster #5 (going these days by Gameusedfan1, who has had a number of different GUU userids in order to pursue various interests that violate GUU rules). Mr.3000's post was sarcastic -- like several of us, he is wondering why this user has not been banned. I hope this clarifies things.

Reid:

Do you know what the other usernames are of this individual? How do you guys catch these things? I must just not be up on the daily happenings on the forum.

Oh, and does he go by Aaron, because that's not what's in his emails.

I am aware of two current, active accounts. Sheffield11 and Gameusedfan1.

No longer using Sheffield11, Wanted to start a fresh name as a dealer/collector.

In the June Pick-Ups thread, posts 54 and 55 assert that Anthony (not Aaron) has been using three userids: Sheffield11, vipsportsgems, and now gameusedfan1. Like I stated before, Ken Golem would be proud! Vipsportsgems is his "business" in which he sells game used items (including ones of greater than $500 value) and lists his business website in his GUU signature (also clearly against the rules). The guy clearly has no interest in following any of the rules or respecting other GUU members ... and he seems to enjoy posting in the threads that call him out on his flagrant rule-violating conduct, almost as if to taunt folks. I'm not sure why Chris and Eric have not done anything. I know a number of users have emailed them about this person, and usually they are very good about making GUUers accountable. Hopefully it is just a matter of time.

Re: Why is there a $500 limit on the forum

Like I said, I am no longer using my previous name. I will admit that I am a little over ambitious but I don't really see the need to attack me here. I only posted 3 jerseys on the pickup threads, all three that I plan on keeping unless I get a good amount of money for. Thats just how I am with collecting, everything can be bought at a price. I am not just listing everything that I have, Only the few things that I would keep. I enjoy the forum and most of the people on here, and I have a great relationship with a ton of people on here. So I am sorry that you feel the way you do. I won't post anymore in the pickup or classified threads even if I plan on keeping something. I would however like to keep base with other threads that have nothing to do with my items because I enjoy all of this. Does that sound fair to all?

For the record, post #54 is mine. However, the accusation was first thrown out in this thread.

I just wanted to make people aware that is was the same person, since everyone was worried vipsportgems had stolen pics and was selling jerseys that weren't his.

I'm not sure why I had to make everyone aware of it, and why Anthony/Gameusedfan1/Vipsportgems/Sheffield11 couldn't.

Sorry I didn't really think it needed to be annouced but thats my fault. I didn't make hard to figure out though. Nothing to hide.
