problem with a member here attempting to profit

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Atr3yu is back under new id Spriggan.

So..... has the process server found you yet? 

[PCEngineHell]

As of yet,no, nor has the FBI and IC3 or whatever it was that he said was coming.

[Tatsujin]

lol..such teh great

[Supremo_Lagarto]

Yes, it's four or five years later.

However, this recently came up in other places and is a perfect example of why people avoid this community. You had one guy, Atreyu, (who has a kid to feed) who bought a few games from people and sold some of them for a profit of a few dollars. What this really amounts to is a collector accidentally getting more than one of a few Hucards and selling off the duplicates.

Then you had this other guy agree to accept money from him for a few items. Long story short, the other guy tears up the money order and spends hours posing action figures for a comic strip which he edits with photoshop, to make fun of Atreyu for (1) trusting him and (2) sending him money. This causes Atreyu (who lost the stub) the loss of all of the money he sent, and (assuming that the other guy didn't just tape up the money order and cash it), the money was lost. No one profited, but Atreyu lost money that could have put food in his child's mouth.

Then almost everyone on this thread agrees with the other guy that Atreyu is the bad guy here. No one seemed to think the fact that a grown man took the time to make a comic strip using photographs of his action figures to make fun of someone else was unacceptable. It was puerile and deranged.  This action was also a form of stealing. If I take $40 out of your wallet and tear it up, and can't spend it, I've still stolen $40.

The crime of Atreyu is "attempting to profit".  In the real world this is NOT a crime and is not unethical.

The non-crime of the other  guy is "taking money from the other person and destroying it". In the real world this IS a crime.


When I used to participate in these threads I was constantly mocked and attacked for just trying to participate in civil discussions about topics that interested me. I am not at all surprised that these people behaved this way because that has pretty much been my experience here.  Most of the people that jumped on the band wagon against Atreyu are still active here and they still act exactly the same.

What exactly is your purpose here?  To stir the shit pot or what?  I have been here going on two years now, and have had VERY few run ins, and they were nothing that made me not want to come here. If your whole purpose here is to complain, and revive long dead threads to do so, then why come at all?  If you dont like it here, then leave...  Its really that easy ya know.  What other community do you know of, that is constantly holding raffles, giving away stuff?  What other community do you know of that tries to give each other better deals than eBay?  I hold raffles ALL the time, as well as others.  This community is responsible for reviving old systems, making old systems better, trading games, ect...  I could nit pick like you seem to be doing all day long.  But at the end of the day, I have a beautiful boxed Turbo Duo, that I got from these forums, I then had that system refurbished and modded right here in these forums, and I have obtained all of the games I had back in the 90's, mostly from right here in these forums.  Yet....you say people stay away such as yourself?  Hey man, sounds to me like maybe....just maybe...the problem is you??  Ever consider that?  Why not hang out some, talk with some folks, stop being so sensitive like in the Super HuCARD thread, and enjoy what these forums have to offer. Join a raffle or two, hell..start a raffle.

Congratulations, Supremo_Lagarto. You've just won yourself 15 pages of flaming with PCEngineHell's new user ID. I hope that's what you wanted. If you thought waiting 4 years to get the last word in would work...it won't. That guy's energy knows no limits.

You'll have to maybe wait an hour since it will take him some time to finish that action figure comic he's working on about you now.

I'd need another money order from some other bitter loser cock smoker to rip up though for the next comic strip. You volunteering? Other then that, nice NecroPhile post on a classic thread. Thanks for the chuckle Atreyu 2.0, or who the fuck ever you are.

I really don't give a shit about people doing this. Its slightly annoying that Atr3yu seems to post about nearly nothing but buying and selling, but its just an irritant. Its nothing major.

Over 4 years later, same shitty attitude towards the community concerning this sort of thing.

Well, I don't remember any of this bullshit, but the fact that you're the kind of person to stew with it for four years and come back with an axe to grind makes it easy to see why you were mocked.

He blocked me on here, but basically, he was Captain Boyscout in threads and would often say some pretty dumb shit and wonder why people were hitting the "fucking duh" button when they posted.

Yes, it's four or five years later...

STATUS: You had me at "Yes"...

Last post prior to your nonsense of coming in here and replying with no purpose other than to stir the shit: Reply #52 on: October 18, 2008, 01:20:30 AM

You are obviously asswipe that doesn't have a clue to bother knowing forum etiquette, or you are Atr3yu under another ID...and what's even worse is that I have to type this up to someone that I have never even seen a post by prior, but judging by everyone else's replies after yours, it leads me to quickly judge what kind of person you are on here if the bandwagon train of certain people have replied to you.
Either way, fuck off. You weren't here when said situation happened, you weren't the one he was trying to pull a fast one on, you weren't the one he tried to rip off, and further more, you obviously have sympathy for thieves, con artists, and people that try to play games and fuck with people, all the while pulling the sympathy card for him about him having a kid to feed. Guess what? That has NOTHING to do with us or anyone but him. We didn't make the baby and we weren't the ones trying to rip anyone off or screw with them.

"What this really amounts to is a collector accidentally getting more than one of a few Hucards and selling off the duplicates."
WRONG. If you can't read the whole thread and other posts, then don't comment. Either way, WRONG.

"this recently came up in other places"
If this came up in other places, GREAT! That means that the word was spread about how much of a fool Atr3yu is, or was, and so people know NOT to deal with him. I don't see how 1 person that is no longer around ruins the reputation of a whole site though. No one should be wary of coming over here and dealing with people based on 1 person. If that were the case, explain to me why a couple of other forums that I won't bother naming, have plenty of sales and trade threads are still doing well?

"The crime of Atreyu is "attempting to profit".  In the real world this is NOT a crime and is not unethical."
Nope, it's not, however his intent was bullshit, and since you seem to be standing up for him, you strike me as one that would do the same, and no one wants to deal with anyone like that here, as it has been proven time and time again.

"The non-crime of the other  guy is "taking money from the other person and destroying it". In the real world this IS a crime."
LOL, ok Pheonix Wright. So tell me about that law degree you have?

"When I used to participate in these threads I was constantly mocked and attacked for just trying to participate in civil discussions about topics that interested me.

And you will continue to be with this kind of nonsense. No one asked you to come in here obviously, just like no one asked you to come in here and make a post on a 4 year old thread, one that I still had in my notifications obviously, because I got an email about it. With your attitude and whining about you being mocked, it sounds to me like you don't even have enough common sense to know when to not reply to something, much like the restart of this thread, which has caught fire under your ass. Even when I was active here, I never had any issues like what you are bitching about, so maybe you should take 5 and re-evaluate your situation and how often or what you post that is causing you to be treated as such.

You obviously have sympathy for frauds and con artists, if you aren't one yourself. I'm sure if you continue to stick around here, you will have a long and successful account...not.

Don't bother replying to me directly, unless you care to send me a PM, because I am un-watching this thread now, and even then I will rip your ass a new one in text form likely, if you do bother wasting your time sending me one, so do yourself a favor and drop all of this. I would totally go and look at all your posts and troll the living hell out of you, but honestly I have better things to do, which is why I'm not active on here anymore.

Atr3yu is a fraud, it's old news. You are obviously just stirring the pot by even posting here. Take that as some constructive criticism and add it to the guide in your mind of 'WHAT NOT TO DO ON pcengine-fx.com FORUMS'.
