Title: I know no one likes a mooch but I am 0.19 bitcoins short for an order, any help?
Post by: sumyun1 on November 02, 2012, 02:22 am
Got heavily taxed through the process of getting bitcoins to SR (which many of us experience). I need 0.19 bitcoins which is about 2 bucks to complete an order that I have been looking forward to. Any kind hearted SR users out there want to lend a helping donation?

your generosity is very kind

please realize it is often the same members scamming for the coins, this may not be the case but unfortunately the thieves ruin it for others

his name is suspiciously similar to sumyungai who stole thousands and thousands from members although it may not have anything to do with him

also, he spammed his request in multiple categories... (which i now have to remove all but one) not an honest request i feel

CaptainMal, I did not mean any insult at all by my post, thus the reason why I would never have used your name negatively. I did not accurately account for your service fee (which is completely fair due to the professional and easy service you provide), so I came out a tad bit short for my desired order. I really should have worded my post differently now that I look back on it. But nonetheless I do apologize and hope that we can continue to do business in the future.

microRNA, I also apologize for spamming that post in several different discussion boards. I was unsure which one it was appropriate for. I can assure you I am no scammer, I am just simply scrambling to place an order that I came up a tad bit short for. Sorry about the way I went about it, I now realize it was a little unprofessional. Hope you can understand where I am coming from.

finally able to access SR again - sending the .19 asap.
Thank you very much CaptainMal! I have to say you have been incredibly professional throughout this whole process, and like I said I meant nothing negative in regards to my comment earlier. I should have just come to you first.
- Thanks again!

i see how it is a little different if he actually bought coins from you

again it was very kind of you to help him out

i am just suspicious unfortunately when i see so many posts about trying to get coins if thats understandable

just before this request i removed one from moonbear who literally posts them all the time so i thought it might be him again actually

i am just trying to keep the members here from being scammed and make it more difficult for those who are trying to take advantage of the community

For future reference I will not make such posts. I feel like an idiot for the way I handled that one, so I'm going to take a walk of shame out of the forums for a while.

thank you CG for saying i have been doing a good job :) my main motivation is trying to keep members from being scammed so that means a lot to me. i think you are providing a valuable resource to the community and are doing a great job as well

SY, i personally dont think you should stop using the forums - especially now after receiving assistance through them. everyone makes mistakes especially when they are new so its understandable and no one will remember in a few days. i think you should support the community though - like review the order you place with those coins, answer someones question, or even just give your opinion to contribute... just my opinion - but that way the next time you need some help on the forum you will have given something to the community you are coming to for assistance.

even i have given members loans as well as asked once if someone could help me with a small amount to complete an order that was extremely important to me since coins had dropped so much, but being an established member makes a big difference and i repayed the member extra for his help

i cant imagine how frustrating it must have been trying to please everyone and handle the exchanges while being unable to connect to SR especially for so many days in a row. members probably dont show the appreciation you deserve but I know some would be completely fucking lost without your help :) they wouldnt even be able to order lol 

fortunately thanks to DPRs efforts im sure you will have a much better day today

by the way, if you could mention whenever you think you have spotted another shill acct possibly used to scam people i would be extremely grateful if you could share that with me. the more eyes out for them the easier to prevent the scams. thank you

and dont know why i said CG - you know what i meant...  CM

+ 1 for your assistance, generosity and contribution to the community
