DiggBoss Scam

Posted on October 31st, 2007 in Scammers by admin

I was looking through the Domains section, seeing if anyone was in the market for some crappy domains, when I came across [WTS]DiggBoss.com

I was considering buying it yesterday and when I saw this thread I though, “What luck!”

Turns out the OP was a scammer. He’s not even apart of DiggBoss. Just wanted to make easy cash and run.

Luckily, the real DiggBoss admin caught wind of the thread and let everyone know the real deal.

To prove he was indeed the real owner, he hosted the scam thread on DiggBoss.com

Reporting Scammers

Posted on October 31st, 2007 in Scammers by admin

When reporting scammers, make sure to provide proof of the scam.

A start would be providing the link of the deal thread, whatever thread you encountered the scammer in and did a deal in.

This is a perfect example of what NOT to do when reporting a scammer: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=536587

Simply naming names and pointing fingers will not do. Remember, accusing is only makes an ass out of you.

Also, explain the situation. “I gave him E-Gold but he never gave me PayPal!!” doesn’t work.

Link to the profile, link to the deal thread, give detailed information on what happened.

Scammer Alert: GeauxTigers

Posted on October 29th, 2007 in Scammers by admin

-YaYa- has been scammed by GeauxTigers.

GeauxTigers agreed to send $50 via E-Gold if -YaYa- sent him $50 via PayPal.

-YaYa- sent the funds immediately but GeauxTigers failed to send his payment.

After sending a number of ignored PMs to GeauxTigers, -YaYa- has been forced to open a dispute with PayPal.

On a side note, GeauxTigers has just joined and has a total of 14 posts. I say -YaYa- had this coming.

DP is Fixed!

Posted on October 29th, 2007 in Other by admin

I think…

It works alright so far.

The PM system seems to be working fine. When I click “Reply” in a thread, I can actually reply.

Lets hope this doesn’t happen again, but if it does, lets hope it gets fixed quicker. ;)

DP is Broken

Posted on October 27th, 2007 in Other by admin

What the hell is going on with Digital Point?  I get back from a 10 day ban and now it has numerous amounts of problems.

At first I couldn’t get my PMs and now I can but when I try to reply to them, they don’t exist.

I search for new posts and it brings me all the new posts…from yesterday.

Luckily I found a better place to hang out in between projects.

I’m back!

Posted on October 26th, 2007 in Top Members by admin

I’m back from my ban and so far it’s alright. DP is getting slower and slower.

As soon as I got back though I got a couple of “Welcome back!” PMs. buffalo was the first to welcome me back.;)

Anyway, I don’t think I’ll be making the usual 100 posts per day anymore.

The BST section is slow, replies come slower, the people keep getting more and more dumb and I’ve found better places to contribute to. I’ll definitely still be around though.

Thanks for welcoming me back!:)

Should I report this post?

Posted on October 24th, 2007 in FAQ by admin

If you want to report a post but you’re not sure it’s report-worthy, report it.

If it isn’t report-worthy, it’ll just go ignored and never be brought up again.

There’s no need to start a thread saying you saw a post that you wanted to report but wasn’t sure if you should.

If you feel it broke a rule, just report it.

sundaybrew has left DP.

Posted on October 24th, 2007 in Top Members by admin

I was going to make one of my usual posts about this but I decided against it as I’m personally familiar with him and have nothing against him.

Long story short, because of all the accusations and threats, sundaybrew has decided to leave DP. I’m not sure if it’s for good or just for the holidays though. He mentioned he “won’t be here for the holidays”.

To get the complete story, go here.

3 Infractions, 1 Mistake

Posted on October 24th, 2007 in Infractions by admin

indianrichierich has received 3 infractions for 1 mistake. So what did he do? Start a thread of course!

“This is funny and unfair on me( 3 INFRATION FOR 1 MISTAKE)”

What’s unfair is that I lost 5 minutes of my life reading your thread and writing this post.

” pls take away 2 of my infrtion ..its really frustrating to see” 

lol Too funny. Infractions rarely ever get removed. I’m sure someone with 92 posts who breaks one rule then breaks another rule by talking about breaking the rules would know that though.

Just suck it up and accept the infractions, nothing can be done about them. Follow the rules and you’ll be fine.

Oh and multiple infractions aren’t given to single posts, you must have done that “one mistake” multiple times.

Why did I get banned?

Posted on October 18th, 2007 in Banned by admin

I’ve been getting asked this about ten times a day since I’ve been banned.

Short answer – None of your business.

It’s not made public because it’s no one else’s business but the staff and the person banned. This is pretty much the same reason I’m not saying exactly why I was banned; it’s no one else’s reason but mine…oh and the staff.

Long story short – Don’t ask me why I was banned. I won’t tell you.

“LOL! take my suggestion, and don’t date any DP members

I’ve been banned!

Posted on October 15th, 2007 in Banned by admin

Yep, I’ve finally been banned.

It said I was banned for infractions but when I looked in my inbox, the email wasn’t there.

I’m curious as to why I’ve been banned though it’s not really a surprise. ha
