Heh, i was surprised too.
[QUOTE=The Aussie;29483391]Yeah! Bud's! [URL=http://filesmelt.com/][img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/2011-04-28_00004.jpg[/img_thumb][/URL] [/QUOTE] I traded a Degreaser for one. :D
[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;29478055]True as that may be, we have seen quite a few people joining PURELY for this thread, hell I'm betting there's more that don't join, lurk and use the web based ones. They all scan the same servers, trade the same people, said person gets annoyed and declines everyone and everything inadvertently making it hard for all. Something Jesse was trying to avoid.[/QUOTE] We've become too "mainsteam" in a sense, we need to either privatize, or disband. Too many people are taking our targets, and frankly we're running out of prey, if anything I think we need to stop for a while.
Well, i notice newbies often just reject outright. Was that always so?
Well, I just traded a guy with 3 hours, he had Buds. He told me: "stop trading me, you guys keep bugging me, so I won't trade them out of principle" We seriously should remove this thread, and stay in Jess's forum.
Okay, i ahve to agree with that. That way no-one new can get onto the rip-off scene.
Was this a bad trade? I offered up a Cadaver's Cranium, and was going to recieve six non-vintage weapons. Thinking this was a lowball, I decided to cancel.

Sup Jesse, could you activate me? Name's "PootisSpencer". Sorry for being that late, but having to indicate my profile name made me a little suspicious at first, but then I saw all those people asking to be activated. If you need scamming reference, [url]http://www.tf2items.com/id/StrikerNdsp[/url] All hats on the last page, including the Bill's, and the Buds on Page 1 were obtained using TAPLK-Techniques. EDIT: Oops just noticed, got my unusual through crates (last page) [QUOTE=JDER14;29483603]We've become too "mainsteam" in a sense, we need to either privatize, or disband.

So, that many people are trying to login in "Jesse's" website. Could anyone tell me more about this? To make things clear: I'm not just here because of the Rip-Off thread. It would be really nice if you guys can clear up things for me. :-o
Why you won't work F12? Damn you. Just traded 5 random weapons for a vintage Natascha, vintage Sandvich, a nv weapon, a Handyman Handle for the Pyro and a Bill's. Hell yes.
Gah, why is it always, I see a fellow Facepunch user, on a server, I send a trade request to say: "Hello. And how are you doing today?", you aren't available? :smith:

[QUOTE=The Aussie;29483391]Am i a noob noth? really?[/QUOTE] I never said you were a noob. I said if you don't know the value of shit, you shouldn't be trading for it. I may also be a little jelly not being the only aussie anymore. But it's mostly you should learn the value of shit.
[QUOTE=marcus5;29484570]i think im ready to start work. [url]http://www.tf2b.com/?id=76561198034321465[/url][/QUOTE] Yea, I would say you're ready too :D

Scamming is basically dead, too many noobs doing it and too many people on a lot of the servers know about us. No amount of locking threads and moving forums is going to change that. The damage has been done.

marcus you need to stop :P you have literally too much stuff and you're not supplying back into the stream or selling it. I'm just trying to make enough money to buy my GF a good birthday present, out of work with a broken ankle and nothing else to do.
