Maybe it's just me, I have never understood the concept of taking something which does not belong to you
Also known as robbery or theft, the most common criminal act.
For me, there are two types of 'scammers' on here:
1) Those who get in over their heads and rather than do the right thing, are happy to disappear;
2) Those who come here purely to con and scam people (vile human beings).
I think there are more cases of the former rather than latter. The sad thing is that not many of those who get in over their heads are willing to work things out, even if it takes some time to repay.
Totally agree about dealing with new members, if at all possible it should be disallowed because probably 80-90% of shitlist threads lately are about a member who recently joined or has not been active for a long time
There are so many red flags. Anyone who joins and suddenly is posting on WTB/Hire a Freelancer is an immediate ignore for me. I guess you could argue that there should be a minimum post requirement to use those forums.
