About users with hidden agendas


If you know that a user is a dealer and they fail to disclose and attacks other users because they make a point against their interest, do you expose the user?

I know of a gentleman here that continuously posts and goes after people and does not disclose who he is. 

What are the ethics of this forum?

Then how is he a "gentleman"?

I have seen this here and other forums. Sometimes it is not just the dealer, but regular posters who try to get "too" involved. Supporting a product/dealer is one thing. But when the posters try to defend a dealer - that kind of comes off as if they themselves are the dealers or have some agenda/motive.

I've seen posters also speak ill of a Dealer because they received a peace of used equipment that some how show up DOA. Dealers don't sell DOA gear. 

Then there is the plug and play crew that miss a switch for XLR/RCA or not plug the power cable in all the way.. Those are always fun, they open a thread and slam the Dealer.

I really like the ones about shipping damage. It's usually a packing issue 90% of the time. You put enough stickers on a box it will get handled a little easier. Packing is a whole different story.. Few sellers are good at packing. They usually forget the customer has to get the package, intact, before the deal is complete. Not get the money. :-)

What can I say I HATE peanuts! Except when it cost peanuts..

I concur with my friend post...

"Attacking other users is contrary to the forum guidelines and that would become a matter for the moderators to address."

Yes it is, but it is done selectively.

It’s an open forum.  You can do what you think right.  I’d just  be civil and sure of your facts.
