No ban[/QUOTE]
Update: I'm banned for ten years now, Reason "Fixed that for you"
Yeah, it's probably not a good idea to incriminate yourself in this thread since I'm sure Rob and Ob are both reading it.
edit: yes, we ban people who commit fraud outside of the site.
just noticed i got banned for two weeks as well, great

08:44 a.m. - Sam: So, what is it, a hate crime towards facepunch?
08:44 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: I don't know anything about it, I passed the admin thing onto others when I stopped playing since I didn't want to probate anyone for unfair trades when I didn't know the current market.
08:45 a.m. - Sam: Hmm. Well, can you link me to this "Rob" person's profile?

08:53 a.m. - Sam: I guess.
08:54 a.m. - Sam: SteamRep usually means an item-for-money scam, though. That's what i did.
08:54 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: oh, you scammed a dude for cash?
08:55 a.m. - Sam: I scammed some guy out of an unusual saying i'd pay him.
08:55 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: well then yeah, the ban isn't going away if that's the case.
08:55 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: money scamming is a big no-no, and a huge douche maneuver.
08:56 a.m. - Sam: Dang. Well, thanks for clearing that out better than "fixed lol"
08:56 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: sorry man, if it had been a misunderstanding there might've been something I could do.
08:57 a.m. - Bill Nye the Suicidal Spy: but if you really did rip someone off for cash, or ripped items off saying you'd pay, that is fraud and that isn't cool, not even in a funny ha ha internet troll way.
08:57 a.m. - Sam: Bah, 's alright. Didn't think i'd get banned for stuff i did outside TF2TP.

Sorry man, but we just don't want people who are even willing to do something like that ever using the site, and ban them whenever we find them. If you had access to the Leper Colony, you'd see.

I have never joined Dancing Ducks. At least I do not recall doing so.
Hi mods of TF2TP
I agree with you, this is fucking disgusting. How dare these people trade their items for other items, the other person obviously wasn't happy with what he got. He must have clicked ready to trade and the trade button out of fear of his life
Oh, while you're at it, please could you ban uh, let me get my list
SunSpy
GODHAND
Those people over at SourceOP who have their own "rip-off megathread"
Some people at SPUF too
The list goes on really
Why? Oh, because they've done the EXACT same stuff that these people at Facepunch did. Don't deny it, you know it. SunSpy has ripped off, GODHAND has ripped off, and SourceOP even ADMIT to ripping off. The only reason you haven't added them is because they're part of your homies innit. You guys are very very biased.
Oh boo hoo they traded their items of less "value" for ones of more. Well there are no values set, it's set by the community. Sure the "victims" could have traded their items for more BUT MAYBE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO, MAYBE THEY WERE HAPPY WITH THEIR FUCKING LOCH-N-LOAD CAUSE TO THEM THEY'D RATHER HAVE FUCKING WEAPONS THAN COSMETIC ITEMS
I'm sick of seeing all these people circlejerk, HAH you can't rip off but the rest of the people can CAUSE IF YOU DARE RIP OFF WE WILL ADD YOU AS A SCAMMER AND BAN YOU FROM OUR SITE AND DELETE ALL YOUR THREADS ON SOURCEOP YEAH!!!
I dunno bro but I know that I have a dream item I want, a Sunbeams Modest (rate optimistic below) but it will take me ages to get that, possibly years. Why? Oh yeah because your fucked up homies (see SourceOP and SPUF) overprice everything. $700 for a virtual item? Morons. In my opinion it is YOU who are the scammers, stealing $700 off someone and giving them a virtual item. Your response will be "but they wanted it so its fair" BUT SO DID THE "VICTIMS"
If I had an unusual and I wanted to trade it to someone for a few weapons then that would be fine. You assume that if they knew "values" that they wouldn't do it. You're wrong, some people just want to play and don't care 2 shits about cosmetics or value. To assume that everyone in this game wants to trade is just a dumb assumption.
You may feel like gods banning people, look at our ego WE CAN BAN YOU AND YOU CAN'T DO SHIT! But I digress, you've pissed off about 50 people wasn't it? That's 50 people you did not want to piss off.
Oh and I've seen GLADOSDan's websites, they're pretty cool, and they don't go offline when someone sneezes on the server.
^The above poster is a wise man.
Typical power trip, with the added fun of being powered by booze, always makes things more interesting.
I actually tried to permaban Sunspy because he is an insane spergy idiot. I gave him a month off for the bright idea of threatening someone else on the tf2tp team over a joke, and he went off at me nonstop for a full hour. HOW DARE YOU BAN ME/YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THE LAST OF THIS/YOU CAN'T CUT OUR FUNDING YOU WILL REGRET THIS etc. Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to.
And yes I'm such a dick for politely telling a dude who stole from someone that he can never use tf2tp because we don't want that type on the site.
Rob(Micheal Vick's Bookie), well, Rob is Rob. It's his thing. It's what he does. Do you blame a bear for shitting in the woods?
edit: there is a certain person who is buying up all the Sunbeams Modests for himself so that he has the only one. That probably puts a damper on your dream. I think he has like ten of them now.

But then, what about people like me, who got their Steamrep status cleaned?
I was marked with the "CAUTION" tag, yet I am a " fine member of the scamming community".
I never went around people promising them money or items that I didn't give.
Against facepunch in general or not, this is complete bullshit.

This is why your site is bad. If you're going to run a very popular trading site you need to be completely unbiased. Not banning someone because they will tell their mommy on you is dumb.
Also, who stole what off who?
I am waiting for Ob to get online to talk to him to get the scamming thing changed, and hell, possibly the entire probations of people who have been cleaned from Steamrep. Let's not do the decapitated poultry thing just yet, let me talk to him first. Unfortunately he works long hours and I may not get to him before I go to bed or work.
People fakeposting on tf2tp, which is still happening, is not helping the situation however.

I don't consider it fraud either. Both sides were happy with their items!
I think you're getting confused, you assume that they lied to the people (i.e "your earbuds is only worth a weapon). This never happened, I know that the people who did the ripping off always told the truth about the values if the "victim" asked. Some people although did lie, and they got backlash from it by the other people who did the ripping off. As long as both sides were happy with their items they were receiving it was a fair trade and was not fraud.

Oh, no, I was responding to him as he was talking about the dude who literally admitted defrauding someone earlier on this page. Or at least that is who I was talking about when he responded to me.
I don't think ripping off someone in trading item for item is fraud, that'd be stupid. But offering someone cash for their item and then cutting and running is definitely fraud, even if it is INTERNET HATS.
