Title: So we're not all psychopaths right?
Post by: piratesam on June 05, 2013, 07:03 pm
 I'm am new, and I'm sure like most newbies with a conscious I'm left here wondering if I'm doing business with a bunch of psychopaths or not. I'm sure most vendors are good guys, but what about the people who will hunt you down for leaving bad reviews? I'm sure police are a bigger concern than other regular users right? I'm sure these questions are asked a lot. I can't lie saying I'm not a little worried, seeing as the only thing between me and a violent drug dealer is Tor.

 BTW, any tips on increasing personal security? All I use is Tor to stay hidden but I have herd that Tor alone isn't very good, and that I should maybe have some other line of security? Thanks

nah, its all good. the people on here are worried about money. and the only way for them to get your money is to offer you a good product at a good price, and all with a smile (or a smiley, since its the interbutts).

its a free market here, so the people aren't psychopaths. only when government gets involved do we all suddenly see the psychos coming out of their holes.

Probably more so sociopaths than psychopaths.

I hunt down my customers and rape them with pine cones covered in 5w 30 synthetic if they ever give me anything less than a 5/5 but I'm no psychopath.

Doubtful.

Unless the said psychopath became a vendor in order to scam people.  This person would be found out pretty quickly and banned, so not much sport in that. 
Otherwise, the complexities of selling would be far more than a psychopath would want to bother with. 
Much easier for the psychopath to find a live victim to parasite and destroy than mess with online faceless buyers whose upset could only be measured by ranting messages.

I doubt that anyone on the Road carries enough weight to merit a visit from a vendor slighted by a review.   Don't worry SO much.

don't be worried, we just want to get high and be free. (and make some money, of course)
