For many, many years most of the members of this site were for the most part highly reliable, respectful, and of High Honor. Seems over the past few years this has changed drastically. Over the past many posts I have encountered many newer members with low feedback, zero feedback or "negative" feedback whom make contact with me on an item I have posted for sale or trade and then fall flat on their faces.
To those of you whom are upstanding members with respect, are in good standing and have Honor, I salute you as it seems we are a breed of folks that know how to treat one another and I appreciate each and every one of you.
It seems to me that very often many of these newer folks lack any common old school values and have no idea how to define the word honor. I've even had a rash of those whom wish to meet in some out of the way place and when I suspect a potential problem I suggest meeting at the local police precinct where they have parking marked for online/craigslist deals and of course the messaging then stops cold.
I've had many show up to deal whom could not provide ID to verify over 21 on a handgun and even more often they just don't show up for a scheduled meet at all, what a waste of time.
What has happened to this great group ?
Am I the only one on here experiencing this problem ?
Here is my big question - I find that we have the availability to "Ignore" a member - my question is; does "Ignore" work the same as "Block" when a person is trying to stop robo phone calls, can I block the members whom are a problem from even contacting me on a posting ?
Thank you for any help you can offer - God Bless the USA and the ODT !
