Why can't traders be honest?

Some members just like to test the site to see how long it takes to get the "hat".
Hat must mean you be bad or tacticool.

Apparently JkEnder you seem to be unaware that Freedom of Speech is limited in many ways, every day.
If you are not aware of that, you can test it by walking into any courtroom tomorrow when court is in session and start giving a speech. Ignore the silly judge telling you to be quiet. Try giving a speech from the balcony in the Senate chamber of our State capital while they are in session. Tell the Security types that you have Freedom of Speech.
Ask the local school Principals if you can address the students about the virtues and pleasures of gun ownership and the need to support the 2nd Amendment.
Those buildings are owned by ‘the people’, aren’t they?
So, how can they limit your Freedom of Speech?

You can also try it on private property.
Jump onto a table in a restaurant and speak or preach away.
Enter a private clinic and tell them you’ll be speaking all day about your views on morality and religion.
Ask local churches if they plan on giving equal time to speakers for a totally different religion, or worshipers of Satan, or Wicca, or give atheists the floor to tell everyone the horrible effects religion has on the public.

Since you believe in Freedom of Speech, do you adhere to the principle in your own home? Do you allow anyone who rings your doorbell in to speak about political parties or ideologies or religions different from your own beliefs? If not, are you violating THEIR freedom of speech?
Are you starting to get the message JkEnder?

Wasn't it Patrick Henry who said "Let me post or give me Death".. Didn't he get banned from the site???

Nice post @JWC, I doubt it will sink in with the younger generation. They are "entitled" to their opinion.

I understand wanting the most you can get for a sale or trade. Pricing something higher than you can buy it new from a store, then claiming it is a hard to find item, then getting miffed when someone calls you out and reports your post is ridiculous. This isn't in reference to one single seller/item but a general observation forum wide.

This is what it equates to, " I have a dollar bill, near mint condition. It's a hard to find dollar that was only made in 2016. I hate to let it go cause it's my special dollar. I want $1.25 for it" the poster gets no response and bumps the item a couple times, then, another member says,"That's not a special dollar and you're wanting more than it's worth.", op gets mad and reports. Lol

DJD.

There's too much "entitlement" as it is. No one works for it anymore

How can you be for freedom of speech but want to moderate or control what people sell their personal property for? Maybe when he sobers up and his hat comes off he will make an apology....wishful thinking???
Even more scary, other Millennials share his ideals and they are allowed to vote, Yikes!

How the f*** do you price a Glock, that you've put 500 rounds through, with custom stippling (that you applied, while drunk, with a crappy soldering iron), that you amateurishly tried to polish the internals on, and with a cheap extended slide release for MSRP+ $100? And, it's a .40. GLWS. All my warning points are from the same a**hole posting the same Walther PPX for a dollar over MSRP, when you could buy it from CDNN for over $150 less. I think we need a new category of MOD's that arbitrate prices and allow callouts on bulls***t pricing. These people aren't legitimate members, they are parasites that ruin this site like every other forum that is overrun with douch*s. If your price is fair, your item will sell. If you want to flip crap, face the wrath of the masses.

Sounds like the whiskey talking brother.
I just click away - not going to raise my bp over some ignorant price point on an item that I can find 100 of within a 30 minute drive.

Well just damn. I took a break last night to watch the two WORST fights EVER on TV that I had recorded and when I came back things had escalated very quick. I just stayed out of it from that point on cause I was pretty sure Mr. Knowitall was gonna get the dunce hat or banned all together. I thought above_all handled himself very well, by the way, what happened to his posts? Oh yeah, he probably deleted them like I have before when things started getting out of hand with hard headed people that cannot be reasoned with. Oh well, **** happens all the time around here. Great post by my buddy @JWC, I couldn't agree more. Well, carry on my friends, I have been informed by my wife that she wants to go to Carrollton and needs me to drive her so I'll check back later to see what else is going on. Have fun peoples! Lol
