I joke, of course. But I suppose the people who are actually newbies need to know this sort of thing and the inner workings of the forum.
No worries, I will be tortured for it for the rest of my existence I'm sure, and I deserve every bit of it.
You are right of course, there are some bizarre situations here. For example, people who were running "legitimate" businesses but failed to pay when they were hacked or their own investments failed may also be wearing a 'scammer' tag currently. I wouldn't be surprised to see BFL, Avalon, bASIC, or any other major tech name on the forum sporting a scammer tag here soon if they keep failing to deliver for example. It doesn't necessarily mean someone is out to hurt you, but it does do a sufficient job of making you stop and think twice.
On that note, anyone intending on doing a bet with me absolutely must stop and think twice, and that's okay. I admit my fault and own my mistake.
so you know he is worth listening to
