It objectively was, but it's immaterial, since most of the internet is stupid whether or not I am also stupid.

It would have been a scam had he not also sent the shirts people had ordered. As it stands it was a harmless prank.

he literally only made one of the fake shirts and several people helped him trick goons into thinking he sent all of them fake shirts, there was straight up no scam or fraud involved

Just so I understand, a Goon stole over $1,000 from other Goons, and some people - including posters in this very thread - are praising this.

I hope someone ratted him out to Paypal.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

The design is the first thing in the thread. It literally says, “design finalization.” None of the “tweaks” he mentions include, “ship ginormous shirts no one can wear with a picture of me on them.”

I didn’t tattle, but I’m 100% fine with anyone who wants to be a narc in this situation.



Lol, OK, guys. The dude sold a lot of items to a lot of people, then didn’t deliver, but it’s OK because rules lawyering and crying emoticons, and also some people are laughing about it. Enjoy it, I guess. If he now ships the shirts everyone actually paid for, this becomes an epic prank. Otherwise, he’s just a douche who took money from people and didn’t deliver what he promised.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

Compelling.


Nope. Your anger about this is funnier to me than that “prank” could ever be, though, so thanks for that.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

I have no idea where you’re getting this dumb poo poo from. He attacked me, not the other way around. He was all RAWR and I told him I thought that was funny. Not sure what weird poo poo you’re reading into that.


Lol, what? I don’t remember ever interacting with you.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

Lol. Almost 2,000 posts on this account, and maybe a dozen have involved any kind of drama or dust-up. You can’t think of a single thing I’ve ever said without stalking my history. You’re just a coward who wanted to get in some licks because you feel safe in a crowd.

My entire thesis was, “It’s a dick move to take $1,000 dollars from people, and not deliver what you promised,” and half a dozen goons lost their loving minds racing to their keyboards to poo poo on me for it. Lol, yeah. I’m the problem, here.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

I ordered 28, and they fit OK, except they’re tight over my man-boobs. I don’t see how that’s relevant.

Veni Vidi Ameche! posted:

Did the guys who bought the shirts get caught on tape making an unprovoked attack the guy who made the shirts? It's my bad if I missed that part of the story.

I actually loled at the avatar.
