@druryj it is much different than it was back in the early days of OSA. Thankfully you can block the folks that only show up once every 5 days to spam their wares.
True dat. this topic does come up every now and then, but as was said, if the topic bugs you, well, nobody is making anybody read this. As a Mod I do have to deal with disgruntled members sometimes because someone either didn't show up, the merchandise was not as advertised, or some such things. Please understand there isn't much we can do to combat the unscrupulous among us. I remember one of my first transactions here, I was a noob and thought surely nobody who is a member would rip me off? Wrong. I got burned. Burn me once, shame on you. Burn me twice; shame on me. I have learned to look at post count and substance, if I don't know the member, and I have yet to be burned again. I avoid those who only use OSA to post their crap for sale, and deal with those who are members of not just the site, but who actually participate. Those who are, as I like to say, members of the OSA community. I betcha lots of us do it like this; especially the ones who have been around awhile.
