Some others and I recently lost some cash dealing with a scammer. The decision was bad and I feel bad. I've been on the Road for a while now and got out of touch with the usual scamming tactics (particularly fake feedback). Let this be a lesson to everyone: when you think you know the game, you probably don't.
I can understand why you wouldn't want to donate. I welcome all insults and criticism. Please send BTC to 1Lhh3cPdR8zcBEBpMUCHVS7NpwZ8aREyY7.
I believe in the power of this community. Despite the money I've lost on SR, I've gained so much. I became interested in online markets after some rough encounters between me and a former h dealer (got thrown out of a moving vehicle, friend of mine got stabbed). This was two years ago and, thankfully, I haven't had to turn towards sketchy people and put myself in danger. Yes, this is all still illegal and yes, I did lose money, but I still have my life and my health.
Once again, please donate or just send some Internet hugs. Any amount is fine. Love you all!

I feel for you bro. I've got no BTC for you because I'm a student however

If you haven't been fucked on SR then you haven't been here long enough.

I'm passing out free lube to club members!

damn. Knowledge above power

I've been fucked before. I believed the fake feedback the vendor left for themselves with a shill account, it could have been avoided if there was some kind of feedback verification system in place, like nearly every other onion black market...
-
Part of life I guess. Just hope we gain enough experience before our luck runs out.

I need to visit the forums more often too. It's kind of hilarious how comfortable I got with this stuff. I'm thinking I'll restart my shroomery thread to get more intimate with the community again.

This would be great. Not very familiar with other onion markets besides BMR. Care to give a few examples?

True, but id rather get fucked over SR than IRL.
I am lucky to have only been scammed once. Obv Never FE.
Also, BMR and Atlantis are other onion sites theres some other ones in the TOR directory.

well, I just posted to this thread "Greendaddy888 you are a huge faggot and so are your customers" and it started with Fake Feedback. I'm now in resolution with this vendor and I'm so tired of posting about. I guess if I don't post, then I'm allowing a scammer to get away with it.

No offense man but it was your fault you got scammed. Donations are out of the question.
-
aussiepp, were you referring to me getting scammed?

I was referring to the OP.

Considering that the take/leave bitcoin thread just kinda deleted my posts when i said i was a new member, i shall send to thee my next leftover btc (might take 1 or 2 weeks but rest assured sir)
Cheers!

thanks for clarification aussiepp. ;)

Then don't send anything. It's not like I asked you specifically.

Oh im an old time member of the club, but not to the same severity/degree you are i believe.
Welcome. We have milk and cookies.

I've been using SR for almost two years now. This was the first time I lost a somewhat significant amount of money. Didn't break the bank but I'm not happy about it either.

I only buy from vendors with forums threads, and reviews from my peers.
I have not been fucked once on the silk road, and I do not believe I ever shall, since I continue to exclusively follow this formula when wondering if I should purchase from a particular vendor.

Or you don't buy at a large enough clip. I've been around for a while, and I've been lucky so far. Some of that luck I made for myself, but some of it is indeed just dumb luck. There have been a couple tx's I made where just a couple weeks later the vendor went into full scam mode. e.g. tabmonster
(now that I opened my big mouth i'm sure i have it coming :P )
