I mean really.. im back from the sr1 days just giving things a try on AB and back then i never had to worry about anything, not about markets exit scamming, vendors exit scamming, vendors trying to dox me. What has this community come to? Really its like im walking on eggshells just trying to find decent people in this community nowadays. SMH
It's not the vendors that are all that dishonest, its the markets. As long as you do your research on your vendors you'll most likely be fine, however there are occasional outa nowhere exitscams.
The reason you didn't have to worry about it was there wasn't as large of a community with as many markets, or as many vendors....and Ross was an idealist.
It's hard to abandon something when you're the first and only one.
