Hey! You remember that painting you were trading good money for when we first met? I didn't tell you, because I wanted you to like me, but I knew it was a fake! I completely let you waste good money so you'd be my friend. How about that laugh?
But here's how it really is. A person who has lurked on these forums for months finally registers. Not soon afterwards he notices something fishy going on. He voices his opinion about this and it happens to involve a respected member of the community. Understandably people come to their defense and it should be that way between friends.
Do I think I made friends by making my concerns known? Apparently not. Do I think people may pay more attention and be more cautious now? Yeah.
