It will keep getting deleted for the multiple posts of this. If you want to keep making multiple posts, I will ask the moderator team to delete every version of this on sight so do not try to frame this as an attempt of censorship when you are spamming here. I would also like to point out two iterations of this post were deleted by the person posting it, not any of my moderators.

As others have pointed out, we receive a lot of criticism for many things as we cannot please everyone but such threads are not deleted, only those which are obviously Coachella or in violation of our rules. We do not use Coachella as an excuse to mass delete posts either - many of the staff here have worked on the team for a while now and as their full time profession so when it comes to identifying stylography of a meth induced spammer, they have become quite proficient.

Our team are human too, we can make mistakes, so let's cut this masquerading of small mistakes and overblown fanaticism of censorship and get on with what we do best - that is doing something positive for the community.

Its nice of you to join the talk but i feel you completely dodged the point of the issue here, You run a illegal website and you claim to do this because you want to give people the right to free choice but i am as you know a long standing vendor here, i have rightfully paid for six vendors accounts over the years and you feel you had the right to take my fourm account and my site account away from me because i told a few vendors in the roundtable that i had doubts about a number of key points that surround the hole story and my site accounts where removed and my forum account has been muted and says this account is not due to be reactivated if i sign in to it.

If this is not censorship please tell me what it is! You can not say you are for freedom if you take away peoples voices when you don't like what they are saying! This is allowing people to speak as long as they are saying what you are happy with, Already 2posts i made here have vanished in the last few minutes!

Can you say publicly now  that you didn't ban my RR account and take away my vending accounts that i have paid for?

thanks for banning him yall!

abatec admitted to scamming too in his thread did yall ban him yet?

Well you definitely didn't keep your cool when contacting support. If you only logged in once, it seems extremely probable that you had a typo in the password when you registered. And in that circumstance, SR admins aren't obligated to help you withdraw your coins. However, they should make an exception in your case if it's possible to prove that the coins are yours. I understand SR has a protocol set in place for dealing with issues, but they don't have to turn into an emotionless corporation. As long as there is some unorthodox way to prove the coins are yours, SR should give them to you. But they're free to take their time with this issue because ultimately it seems you may be the one who made a mistake with your password.

I don't have a problem with them telling you that they won't grant you access to your account, but if they explicitly say that they won't look into ways for you to receive your coins, then there's a problem.

Thanks for a little support mate, but what you see here is the culmination of this conversation where, I feel I really did keep my cool, it was only when I got the 'see above message' - in other words fuck off and stop annoying us that this escalated.

Hi,
I made this account the other day, but misspelled my username. I made a new account - zimbabwejim around 7 or 8 hours ago, but the password is not working.
I just sent BTC 2.3 approx to the wallet from BMR - I can give you the wallet it came from, went to, and the pin number for the zimbabwejim account.
Didn't have a chance to attach pgp key to it or set 2 factor identification.
Please help. I will continue trying the password I think it is as well as variations to see if I can sort it for myself in the meantime.
Regards,
zimbabwejim

HI zinbebwejim,

If the account has a PGP key associated with it (for two-factor authentication) then you can PGP sign a message to me here using that key to verify that you are indeed the owner of the account.

If there is no PGP key associated with it, there is unfortunately no way to reset the password at this time. We may be able to reset the password in a couple of weeks if you can provide the deposit address used to fund the account. Please check back with us in a couple of weeks for that.

Hi Guys,

I am able to verify it with pgp key I have with same username at BMR.
I have the wallet it was sent from and sent to details, I can also provide 3rd party evidence of where the funds came from before hitting my bmr wallet, as they were from a dispute with Going Postal (MIMM) and had only just been released.

I will give permission at bmr to let backcopy verify this for you, if he will allow, or you could even check with MIMM if he has made it back here yet?
Oh yeah, I've had quite a few orders with AoD, he would also be able to verify my public key is for zimbabwejim. -email zimjim@cmail.nu

Am very sorry to bust ur balls guys, just with speculation of sheep fucking up I made the username hastily at a friends' place last night after I realized this account had been misspelled zinbabwejim. I was high and freaking out that my current orders over at sheep won't come through so just wanted to get my coin in to place an order immediately.

Unfortunately, between logging off at my friends' and trying to log back on at home, I suffered a terrible bout of 'Dumbcuntitis' I'm pretty sure I could even give you the password, but I just can't remember what pattern of hitting shift went with it as it is a new password, conceived whilst high and at the peak of my 'Dumbcuntitis' episode.

I hope this explains everything and somehow u guys can find a way to get me my coin, and sincere apologies for the thesis long explination and associated ball bustage.

Regards,
zimbabwejim

HUGE 0.20 SALE - I am having a sale where all my items are no more than 0.20 BTC and that means EVEYTHING!. Want 100 opana. .2 BTC. 5000 xanax .2BTC. Goes till Monday at 2pm ET. Get it or lose it.

The motivation behind this sale is to get more customers. Sure I'll lose some money but not compared to the amount of cuctomsers that will make up for it over time.

It's called a business stategy. Not a scamming policy, and if people think it's a scam I'll drop it. That simple.

Selling via the forum without a vendors account is expressly forbidden and you have been banned accordingly.

He had a vendor  account until I removed it..   I also froze him out of his vending account and removed his listings. He admitted to scamming.

I don't know what happened in this instance, this is actually the first time I have been made aware this happened. Sometimes posts get overlooked, if you see a scam in progress please send me and the other mods a PM and we will take care of it.

Not making excuses but things have been rather hectic of late and this one appears to have slipped between the cracks, like I say next time flag it and I can assure you it will gt dealt with swiftly.

Countless countless people have alerted your staff and had in depth discussions about this vendor over the past week or two. Nothing was done until the very last moment.
