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?

i suspect there are numerous industry people who post here, with their biases and agendas hidden, giving people ’advice’... some properly self identify... many do not -- 'tis one of the big problems on an anonymous forum like this, where things go by the honor system...

... but often people are dishonorable

so a word to the wise here, especially newbies, please beware when folks here are trying to ’help’ you by recommending x-y-z, be it equipment, tweaks, cables, fuses ... sometimes they are actually helping themselves even though it looks like they are being generous and kind

so click the username, see the details, see their system, see their a-gon user feedback as buyer or seller (don't have any?  beware...), see and carefully past posts -- see where they are coming from...

if one comes here naive and lazy, one can and will ’get played’

But shame on you for never revealing your status frankly before posting here...320 posts after truth.... 😁😊

I dealer in love and lady can no resist.

 

I genuinely like several dealers (including some of the more high pressure ones) and I'm not ready to diss anybody for wanting to post on this site. This site attracts a heck of a lot of highly intelligent folks. At the very least, I'm sure we can garner a bit of pleasure when we discern a bit of shilling.

”A selfless lack of agenda is what makes for a great forum IMO.”
