There's bombs flying around everywhere lately, and a butt load launching today. It's so easy to forget, especially on tapacrap it seems. We all do it. This isn't directed at anyone.
But really, do it first thing, before you forget. it's just the nice and appropriate thing to do. Sometimes people are sending you one of their last of something they love because they think you will really enjoy and appreciate it. I don't think any good brother expects return fire, but leaving a positive rating is the very least we can do to show our appreciation.
And it's actually important if they want to do things like be a newbie sponsor.
And if you happen to remember someone you forgot, go back and do it. I just realized last night that I'd spaced on doing it for @multi-useless 4 months ago! :eek:
And I know it's embarrassing to have to ask someone, but if I've forgotten you, let me know!
Here's some good info and better wording by Mr. Nip himself on the subject in a prior thread.

@bostoneo or is it @MaxxxProfitzzz, I would know. I wish I had screenshots of the things you've said in chat when it was a pop out window still. Talking about the huge discounts you got at your store, talking about the recent pickups you made, then seeing some of that stuff start to pop up on BOTL from time to time, at a vastly different price then the one you referred to in chat. That means one of either 2 things: 1. you lied in chat when bragging about your pickups or 2. you're making decent margins, in terms of free smokes off your fellow "brothers." Apparently most folks don't mind though, and the definition of what "brotherhood" is these days isn't the same concept of what it once was when I joined the site. But I will say the term "box split" is very misleading for what you do. That term implies that you are getting a box and then giving YOUR price to fellow community members. What you do instead would be best described as a "sale" because you are turning a profit on the items you sell.

Geeze Cass, let it go. We know. This has been hashed out. He's not doing more than covering some of his smokes, and we don't care cause we benefit too.

And completely aside from the point of this thread.
First of all, I got called out into the thread, so regardless of your feelings on my posting here, the topic got derailed the moment I was tagged.

Secondly, you apparently still don't get it. He's selling for profit...and hes not site sponsor. A good friend of mine (and very solid community member) was simply making some harmless postings here and he was called out by the admin team that he needed a site sponsorship, even though he never tried selling a damn thing here. But somehow John can sell for profit and because people want what he has its suddenly acceptable to be what amounts to a mini store? I understand you feel you know John @Glassman and want to back your hookup regardless but I would make the argument that you are seeing him through rose colored glasses. You're probably right though he's been banned multiple times, and at least one of them was for selling for profit on this board.
