I think we need a pin shark hall of shame

[Swamp_Fox]

After reading and hearing about well known sharks hanging out at various pin trading areas. I think we the honest pin trading community should as a service create a pin shark "hall of shame" which should include a description of the person, their tactics, and a picture if possible. So we (the pin trading community) can get a heads up on who these people are.

Yes I know this may sound extreme, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. I'm also aware this could backfire in someones face by blaming the wrong person of being a shark. I believe there are more honest traders than dishonest traders out there. My "suggested" idea is to keep everybody honest or risk entrance into the trader Hall of Shame.

I know I run the risk of being flammed, but this is just my opinion.

Have a good day,

Larry

And that's exactly why we discourage postings of this type on the DIS. If the wrong person is labeled a shark, that could open the poster and potentially the DIS (or whatever message board allows it) to slander or libel charges.
