Mods, I have an odd request for an IP check on a banned member. When he was here, he would PM me like he knew me. I have suspicions that he's a previously banned member. If anyone is willing to do this, PM me.

Really? He seemed like a troll to me.

Why does GC always seem to have the most $pam?

MrG · Dec 3, 2009

I'm not positive, but I think a spammer just called out another spammer in this thread, posts three and five.

I'm going to weigh in on this. First of all, j. moderated the thread, then closed it, so it's done. Second, thread-crapping is against the rules.

However, imo, the OP acted unethically. The difference between this, and someone who buys tons of Incotex at Daffys for resale, is that the second is providing a service, while the first is really a scalper. Most of our readers are not physically able to get to Daffy's, so without the reseller, they would not have had access to those goods. However, pretty much everyone reading this post can purchase directly from Yoox. Yes, the forum has advertising, people make money on the B&S forum, etc... but it's the sense of community that makes Styleforum a place more and more people keep coming back to. Our hope is that people consider themselves part of this community, and act as responsible members.

I think Artisan Fan has already forgotten the new rules in CE.

why's randomkoreandude in time out?

For restarting FS threads after he sold-bumped the first two and they got closed. I think he will be back soon now that he has gotten the message.

I'm handing out one-week vacations like candy the last couple days. Stop being douchebags!

This guy is spamming the forum like it's going out of style.

The good news is that Jinda will love the gifs of Asian girls doing the phony cute thing.
