idk anything about this particular scam so I probably shouldn't comment on that, but still.. what if you guys are ganging up on the wrong guy?
how many people were in game to actually see the scam happen? I read through this thread and really it looks kinda flimsy. yes its fucked up that someone got stolen and Im sorry for you. yes I know friends of that said person are mad and looking to flame whoever stole him. but what if you have the wrong guy? what if he left the game as he said, and someone else was the the actual thief and the person getting scammed got confused in the mess, I mean its pretty easy to get confused if you are getting emotional after losing such pricey items.
are these people here flaming Brad actually involved with the trade and saw the scam go down? or are they just looking to bash on Brad cause he is the new guy in lld and it looks shady? I mean yes.. it does look kinda shady that he was in the game, then the scam happened, then he gets traded one of the scammed items. that is shady as fuck. but does occam's razor always hold true?

idk, maybe it's just that being friends with Brad many years ago (I havent played d2 in a long while, marvel directed me towards this thread in case anyone is wondering why Im posting on this) and having dueled with/against him for years I've always seen him as a gm dueler. maybe that is clouding my judgment. idk I can't say for certain. I have never traded with Brad in the time I knew him.

But seriously if he is dueling gm in lld and getting #1 consistently, whats the problem with him dueling in lld? I mean yes, if someone is hurting the lld community by scamming members in it, then it is reason to ban the player from having anything to do with the community. but make sure it's that, and not just some hate on Brad for his gm dueling and being new in lld.
again, I've always known Brad as the GM dueler. I've never participated in any trades with him. I've never heard of him doing mass pvp player heists like jeet or other notorious members in the hld scene. I'd hate to be wrong, but then again I wasn't involved with this at all and only read this thread cause Marvel was talking to me about it, I could be wrong. I can't 100% vouch for Brad on this, but I can vouch he is always GM in duels and ladders themselves. He was always a pleasure to duel with and against, that is how I remember him from years ago.
not stating this one way or another, just saying take a step back and see if you are really bashing the right guy. and if its true well then, I can't defend Brad cause someone in a pvp community shouldn't treat other members like that.


gm dueling status =/= gm trading status

he posted this thread hoping to quickly spend 11k fg that he had scammed

maybe I'm wrong and just defending an oldtime friend I used to duel with.
I haven't had contact with Brad these past few years. and I don't play d2 anymore. maybe I'm wrong.

and yes I agree that gm dueling =/= gm trading.
I've never had a bad experience or heard of one while playing with him years ago. and being in the hld scene you see a lot of scams go down. maybe the reason I never traded much at all and just kept to dueling.

so you are willing to flame a guy for 22 pages, but you are gonna tl;dr a post when someone has something to say on the topic.
jsp/10

and as I said, idk anything about him being a scammer.
but I've had many many duels with him 3-5 years ago and he has always dueled GM, so that is how I know him. that is all.


Sorry, just cant be bothered to read something i know will be irrelevant and substance-less

Based on what you just said, i have even less of a reason to read your original post. So you dueled with him 3-5 years ago and he dueled you GM. Great, we should care why? This is relevant and important how?
It isnt. Shoo.

well.. if reading just a few paragraphs is too much for you.. but you can go on flaming someone for many pages, what does that say about you?

and it's relevant cause if his character is in question, I've never known brad to be like that. should I just have kept quiet while you guys keep ganging up on him without having much proof yourself? sorry if I say something nice about him lol.

he was trying to pry some hoarded items out of some people's hands, not spend it fast...

anyway, 6k went to pay back zolas for a loan, you can ask him... (that really sounds like the activity of someone attempting to scam llders ~_~)

Him being a GM dueler is wholly and entirely IRRELEVANT. To be frank, there isnt much anyone can come here and say to support Maka. Not much proof? The proof is overwhelming. Double digit scammer accusations. Just go read page 23 of Lord Spanky's s/a thread. You have to a comatose hellen keller to not see him for what he is.

tl;dr

him getting vouches from his fellow dueling friends means nothing when he has 20+ accusations posted on him with sufficient evidence
