Rrob78 the Raffle Thief

[soop]

I dunno.  Seems like Vestcvoat had a point, but it looks like everyone is making an honest effort to make ammends.

Looks like this shit is sorted really.

[Damon Plus]

Usually people with low number of posts do this. I've seen in a few raffles people with 14-15 posts, 12 of which are for entering raffles.
That is, imo, unfair to other people that contributes to other parts of the forum.

I'm not saying rrob is doing this, but all those posts... don't know what to think.

Gotta say, I wish I was half as lucky as him!

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Thanks for the lulz, VestCunt.  Please do more noob audits. 

P.S. - If rrob, syphic, or anyone else is offended..... tough shit.

im active here as much as a lot of you guys, but some of you know me from other forums or have met me at octurbofest or other meetups.

i know (and have met) rrob. he is a good guy and his heart is in the right place. he spreads the 'obey' word with the best of them, just maybe not as much here. he's a generous dude who gets a lot of people started with nec stuff. maybe he was a little overzelous with all the raffle entries, but it seems like he is trying to make up for this 'infraction'.


and for the record i do a lot of raffles (elsewhere) that he has entered of mine and he has never won. so i hope that lowers his winning percentage a bit. i also openly mock him for never winning any of mine.

[soop]

rrob seems like a pretty swell guy from what people are saying.  Gets my vote for a second chance.

[geise]

If rrob would've been posting in the forums outside of sale/raffle threads we might've known that.  It's usually common courtesy to butt the fuck out of a raffle thread if you already own the game.  That way you can "spread the love of turbo" to someone that (I don't know) doesn't own the game.  I hate to see stuff like this happen to members that are more than likely cool outside of  the forums.  However, how the hell do we know that if they never really post?   Also, maybe people giving raffles should be a little more aware of members entering when they have certain rules.  

[PunkCryborg]

Is this another raffle?

SIGN ME UP PLEASE!!!

Sadly true. I put fairly low post requirements on a few of my raffles, but I didn't check the posts of every single person that entered.

DID I WIN YET??????

Dudes, this has little to do with post counts and overzealous entries. This is about Rob's lying, hording, all round "fuck you" when it came to the wishes of the people giving away their games.

Soop: I'm willing to give him a second chance too, but it's going to take more than a reactionary "suck it VestCunt!" raffle. I want him to come clean and apologize to the donors he lied to and the noobs he jumped in front of to pick up duplicates.

Cdamm: Rob's actions speak a lot louder than your words. Before you put "infraction" in quotation marks or make unverifiable comments his generosity, try to address ANY of this evidence. I dare you:

I'm inclined to side with Vest on this. He's made a good point, and you already know how I feel about raffle leeching (see deadman incident). I mean, that does not mean rrob78 cant fix the situation, but the fact is this was definitely worth posting to point out to the public and needed to be addressed. It's cool he is giving items out to friends, but unless you are directly giving back to active members here who post often or hold their own raffles then it is rather lame to enter multiple raffles never having held one yourself. For for that matter signing up for games you already own. At this point I'd say ban rrob78 from joining raffles for the next 2 months, and in the mean time hold three himself for people here. That would do a lot to fix the damage that has taken place.

[syphic]

So we can end this thread once and for all, Rrob78 will not enter anymore raffles till he has 3 of his own. Then its up to the raffler to let him in or not.  And CDAMM and I have agreed to further punish him by making him mow our lawns. That is all. Thank you.

Hehe, he can come mow my lawn.  I have a lot of it and my mower got stolen.  I'll give him a free Ballistix when he's done.

I wish. We are in LA. Keep trying to get something out here going with fellow gamer nec.game.head but its just so hard trying to get everyone to meet up.

Not my intent to make anybody mad, just asking about my prize.

Go figure. At least he has the decency not to enter raffles for games he already owns, unlike rob.

Great game. i have it so dont enter me.

[rrob78]

You know im trying to right my wrong's. Im a hold my raffles, im not going to restrict them, there going to be open to anybody, no minumim post. Who ever wins, wins. I use the randomizer, I enter in those that entered the raffle, and i post it. Thats all Im going to do.

Then, with a list of The Worthy, randomize away!

True, but then thats cheating, almost like being a thief.... wait I am a thief, lol

[roflmao]

rrob, it's clear that your heart is in the right place based on the folks who have posted positively about you and what you've said in your defense, assuming it's not bs. However, you still seem to be missing the unwritten intention of these raffles. 

Maybe I'm wrong, but it is assumed that people here that raffle stuff are raffling off to the community here.  Meaning we want these games to stay in our community. 

And what gets under the elder community members' skin is people who have a low post count (especially if it is comprised of raffle entries) taking off with raffles meant for this "family". 

We're a pretty intense group and tend to go out of our way to help each other out.  So when new folks come in here and only sign up for raffles, it rubs us the wrong way.  And by you offering up a raffle up to ANYONE, regardless of post count or involvement with the community, it just reinforces that you're not grokking where we're coming from. 

So some of us long-timers find humor in the irony of your raffle.

[PCEngineHell]

To be honest the only people who should be entering the things are ones who actually contribute here. If you're going to give your games away in raffles to 10 post know nuthins who have not done shit around here then it really doesn't fix the problem you created Rob. The actual community still doesn't benefit and it ends up being no different really then when you were supposedly signing up on raffles and giving shit to friends. It also gives the impression you may be trying to rig your own raffles when they are going to mystery members with no background here. Keep it clean, play it straight and make it limited to people who do shit around here, or get the fuck out already because no one here cares for empty handed bs.

[soop]

rgghhh.... As much as I hate to say it, it's true.  You can give your shit away to whomever you want, but ultimately, if you're gonna stick around, I see it as more of a short term trade.  Don't get me wrong, I've given away more than I've got, and I don't expect to see it back - hell, the stuff I raffle is pretty low value eBay wise.

However, even given the hate I get on here, I'd rather see shit go to the community - even people that I dislike and hate on me - than some random guy that joins up for free shit.  Law of entropy or whatever, this is a closed system.  I consider it my way of contributing back to people like Beamer, Chops, Ghost Samurai, Bernie, Esteban, Nando - people, who in their own different way, contribute in a way that I can't.

I think if you can't (and no disrespect meant to most) enter yourself only in raffles you're genuinely interested in, and avoid winning something you're not gonna play*, but take it from someone who potentially will, there needs to be a groundrule imposed on you.  And unfortunately, for some (not all) newbies, and a few less scrupulous older members that seems to be the case.

For all that I disagree with a few on here... not morally, not quite ettiquette...  Some guys can be rude as fuck, but they'll always behave appropriately when it comes to transactions.  If you see what I mean?  Anyway, I'm wasted, so whatever.

* there will be an addendum to that.

[rrob78]

I'm a raffle some other games off, I'll set up better rules. But as far as me entering raffles, I won't anymore.

Posts like this mean much more to me than holding raffles, especially raffles that attack other forum members, as far as mending fences goes.

But joining in Turbo discussions goes much further in general, than raffles, buy/sell/trading, etc... when it comes to being a member of the PCEFX community (which is not the same as being active in the overall PCE community).

[cr8zykuban0]

wow really?? vest coat, apparently you are just jealous and mad just cuz rrob won some raffles and you dont? i honestly think you are being childish about this whole situation. You can call me what you want but im sticking up for rrob. He is, not only an awesome member of the video game and turbo community but he also helps out others getting into the turbo scene, myself included. Vestcoat, if you really had a problem with this, you should have just messaged rrob and resolved this issue in a professional matter, not being a little crybaby and taking the time to look through all of his posts and his history to use against him. You are nothing but a little snitch and if I get kicked out of this group for this post, then so be it. But rrob is a kickass dude who doesn't deserve your ignorant judgement and he shouldn't have to do no raffle just so you can stop crying. you are pathetic

No one here knows you or cares what you think on the matter. With 6 post under your belt you don't even begin to represent this community or its general opinion concerning such matters. This matter is for the people who have been here giving this forum life. You don't count, and wont until you put some time and post in. And so that we are clear on this, of your first 6 post, 5 have to do with the marketplace, buying shit and entering a raffle. You are exactly the type we don't want entering raffles.

[cr8zykuban0]

that's fine. i don't care what people think about what i have to say and i know i am a new member to this community but if someone is going to attack a friend of mine for what ever reason, you expect me to just witness it and stay quiet? nope sorry! and dude, did i ever say that i am representing this community? i think this matter is for anyone to say what ever they feel like, newcomers and veterans. I just wanted to give my two cents about this topic because it involves a good friend of mine and you guys got him hella twisted thinking he is a thief.

[PCEngineHell]

you expect me to just witness it and stay quiet?

Yeah I do, You opinion doesn't matter, and if you were a friend of his, a real one, you would stfu right now, because you butting in makes him look worse. He doesn't need anyone white knighting for him. You will just end up ranting to yourself and ruining whatever shot you have of being a valued member here. Some advice, worry less about this thread, let alone the market place, and start doing something here that counts. Otherwise you are a waste of ours, and your, time.

[cr8zykuban0]

That is your opinion, that's fine and all but i joined this community cuz rrob and syphic told me there were some real cool people here and there were, but people like you make me sick.

[HercTNT]

Your way off base. Tight communities like this have rules for a reason. Its to prevent random strangers from coming in and treating the place like there personal playground. Its admirable to want to defend a friend and all, but he did break the rules a little bit (albiet not intentionally it seems) and he took some flak for it. Its done, move on time. Your mistake is your joining the party late suffering from diarrhea of the mouth and constipation of the brain. The matter as it seems is all but closed, and your just making it worse. Its not like Rob was thrown out or anything. He's still welcome as are you. Take the Professors advice as he's dead right. Stop now and contribute while you can. Just my two cents.

[cr8zykuban0]

Fine, all i was saying that it wasn't right of vest coat to say what he said but i just wanted to say my two cents about it. HercTNT, thank you for being at least reasonable with me and not trying to be rude like the professor. All im saying is that someone should have told him what he was doing was wrong in a professional matter. I don't think the professor is right but i will stop replying to this post.

Well, you can reply, you just gotta be careful what you say. You don't know anyone here yet, but you can. I don't agree with everything that goes on around here either, but thats just the way it goes sometimes. Maybe Vest could have tempered his response, but lately we have had a huge influx of assholes just trying to use the place as a toilet. As far as the professor goes, you got him all wrong. I can't speak for him, but trust me when i say he was giving you fair warning. Its not personal, he's just not a huge fan of people throwing on there elve slippers and cape and zip line in to save the day.
