It's a real shame when a man's word and his handshake has no worth.

Joking aside, I think it's the size of the community.
In a small, tight knit community a bad reputation means that pretty soon, a bad actor ends up with nobody to deal with or talk to. He's either ripped everyone off, or he's ripped enough people off (or flaked on them) that everyone will know someone that he ripped off or flaked on.
Larger community? There will always be another sucker along in a few days. Unless the society is policed, it becomes a rolling caravan of rip off merchants or slimy bastards preying on the newbies.
So don't be a sucker. In general, trust the high-reputation score members, and if you're interested in trading or buying, check the prices carefully first.
I can't even imagine the hard work for the MODs to track these guys and kick them out. Some of them are spies from other sites, believe me!!!Joking aside, I think it's the size of the community.

I am this kinda man, in everything I do. If I make a commitment or I say a "Yes", I will follow thru even if I lose money!Rest assured, I don't fit the dandruff category. I take pride in both my commitments and follow through.
That's a good observation.Joking aside, I think it's the size of the community.

Grabbed myself a drink after work a few days ago, looked over everything the site has to offer and posted a few that I won't lose any sleep over if they leave my safe. This site seems very robust in comparison to the other forums I've been a part of. When work isn't slammed, I look forward to the entertainment and hopefully get a chance to chat in person and shake some hands.I am this kinda man, in everything I do.

I'm glad you've joined us brother man!! We need many more people like you!!!
Put something for sale and let's sit down for some trades and business!!!
Agreed 100%. Glad to have another solid dude onboard brother.I feel like it got worse with the advent of (anti) social networks. And then it becomes learned behavior as it trickles down to the offspring that knows no different and then becomes the perceived norm.

You’ll fit Riiiiight in. Friday nights is where it’s at.I'm pretty reserved. That is until the end of the week and I find a bottle somewhere. If you catch me here on a Friday or Saturday night you're in for a real treat.
I've already got date night planned with some Jameson when I get home. Kick off the boots, sit on the front porch, sip a little, tip the hat and and close out the week the right way.You’ll fit Riiiiight in. Friday nights is where it’s at.
