Silk Road forums

Of course you will be given a fair assessment and your buyer stats will definitely be taken into consideration.

You could take it into resolution but in situations where the tracking says delivered I would be doubtful the admins will side with you, that is unless there have been others who have also reported the same issue.

Tracking is an interesting issue because it is used by many vendors to prove delivery to protect them against scammers, it also can be used by vendors to scam buyers, if you don't know how I'd suggest you spend sometime in the shipping board doing some reading.

My friend and I have been having a debate about TOR, to settle it I would like to know how you guys and girls use/set up TOR? By that I mean, once you have TOR downloaded what do you do (Bridges, block certain things etc). I know there is probably a better thread for this, but I would rather ask my fellow Aussies.

Thanks, hope yall had a good of a weekend as I did.

I'm just in the process of setting up whonix, after reading more and more I've come to realize VM's are the way to go.

Did you not manage to get Qubes up?

Nah mate, Qubes was a tad more complicated to set up ;-)

If you want to see what we are up against when it comes to mind numbing stupidity of attitude when it comes to FE take a look at this little gem of a thread I've had the pleasure of presiding over these past few days:

https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.to/index.php?topic=198960.0

As you can see logic and reason is wasted on some people, in fact they think it's ok to start planning their own FE scams now that DPR and SR has let them down because they fe'd and got scammed, how shameful of SR to have let that happen! tsk tsk

Fucking retards.

Oh my god. Some of the people who have posted on that thread are incredibly dim. Namely 'supershred.'
It's always the case that as soon as a scam goes down, everyone runs to the forums and complains about it.
People had FE'd for $700+ orders. Why? I will never understand the (non-)logic of some people.

I feel sorry for them, but what angers me most is that some scamming cunt got away with thousands of dollars.

corcaigh83 the two post wonder who clearly studied at the university of phoboss thus perfecting the 500 word one paragraph rant was my personal favorite.

Didn't know that re the USB Wad, will be buying a new one tomorrow.

Thank you!

Where can I find a Whonix guide?

Just google it BeepBeep, the download links can be found from the Whonix home page and there is a detailed wiki to read. It will help if you are familiar with how VM's work, have you used Virtual Box before?

I'm sure Miss Demeanor is former vendor, Dark Moon, who's account was closed by SR for scamming. I sent him a message a while ago about staying in Escrow and this was his reply -

I must say your stats are the best I have seen so far.

I am currently only allowing escrow on this listing...

https://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion.to/silkroad/item/dc600701ac

When the time comes and I have enough product to escrow more I have no problem escrowing however much you want to buy.  

He offered me a 0.25g listing to stay in Escrow!! The bloke is just full of shit in my opinion as everything he said just didn't make any sense.

As SSBD posted, anyone dumb enough to FE will eventually get burned, especially by this bloke. The reluctance by some to use the SR Escrow system is bewildering to say the least.  I will never understand why some people are prepared to pay an anonymous vendor hundreds/thousands of dollars for something that may never arrive, regardless on the vendor's reputation.  I just can't see any logic in FE for anyone. It's amazing how many people will FE when a deal comes up which may seem like a great buy but in reality, is just total bullshit. FE seems to be an ongoing issue that doesn't look like going away any time soon. If you want to FE for a vendor then go right ahead, it is your money after all. Just don't come on the forums and start whinging about getting scammed if you do FE, especially when there is plenty of information available on reasons why not to.

I won't argue with you, you are entitled to your opinions and like I said I'm sorry you were scammed. I should also point out that I moderate these forums, I do not have anything to do with the market site so am therefore unable to respond to your question regarding the returning of commissions from transactions associated with vendors found to be scamming, you would need to direct that question towards DPR and/or the SR admins who run the site.

I will say this though, despite what you may feel I know for a fact that the admins who run this site do care very passionately about buyer safety and take appropriate action against vendors proven to be breaking the rules as set out in the sellers guide. If you have evidence of vendors scamming I would invite you to do what I and many others do and report it via the market site to bring it to the attention of the admins.

If anyone wants to continue this discussion regarding the vendor in question I would suggest opening a new thread in rumor mill or feature requests if you would like to request for FE to be banned.

Thread locked as resolved.
