Nothing against the mods at all. You pays your money but i thought his reply was a bit harsh.

Btw i'd send anyone a few bob to help most out on here. The forums gave me more worth.

Ok so you see it as being a harsh reply, tell me what's harsh about it and any bits that you think are untrue/out of order

I think your solution about the mods frog marching round was a bit ott. Im pretty sure craig is feeling bad enough about what happened without something like that being said. Your advice before you said that was fine.

I don`t think that was actually intended as a solution. I have an inkling it was a "tongue in cheek" comment

mostly because people don't seem to be able to understand that financial transactions aren't the org's responsibility.

Where there's blame, there's a claim

does seem a bit strange to me that the people who run a forum could somehow be held responsible for stuff members sell on it

if you replied to an advert in your local paper and agreed to gift money on paypal and the seller then did a runner with the money, would you expect to get anywhere by complaining to the paper?

its just a public internet forum, anyone can place an advert, anyone can read it, just like the local paper

people buying stuff on here are lucky the mods are prepared to help at all IMO
