SAMBUSA Posted February 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I guess my concern is how would it be different had he got an additional 15 posts and you still bought the bike?I mean, we have guys like Kawi Kid that bump and post smilies in every thread and have over 5k posts... What if the guy kept bumping his "hello, I'm new" thread 50 times??I think 25 posts is more than fair in the attempt to make it more inviting to newbies. I think practicing good buying habits is a goal we all should have 50 posts or 5,000...You got ripped off and I think it would have happened either way. Had nothing to do with being new as much as it did the guy was a fucking snake...On the WERA board, you got guys with 100s of posts and yet they rip people off...Very good points. Hopefully a min post count will deter the scammers from the very start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had nothing to do with being new as much as it did the guy was a fucking snake...On the WERA board, you got guys with 100s of posts and yet they rip people off...Several things.....With as many newbs as we've had joinin' lately, I don't think 50 posts will be much of a deterrent to the ones who are here for legitimate fellowship, rather than using this as a pre-crackwhored CraigsList. If all they're doin' is postin' 50 smilies so they can post their sale ad......That should be a red flag right there as to their intentions of using our siteAlso....For clarification....I'm not the one who got ripped off. That was Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catman Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Your bike didn't like the paint and just shook it off !Damn that's fucked up ! Sounds like no prep or primer ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Shook it off? No, it's a busa... the paint couldn't handle the acceleration. Newtons 1st law.Though to be fair, I heard Suzuki has to put special 'busa certified paint on the bikes to keep it from happening. Maybe the painter didn't know?If you paint any other vehicle with special 'busa paint, the paint actually constantly pulls the vehicle in reverse to try to counteract the massive acceleration.

kawi kid Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I started the this thread cuz I noticed 3 new guys all within a week all had a bike for sale. and that was pretty much all we knew about them. it wasnt one particular newb, and for the record I have nothing against any of them. just want to try and protect our members from scammers. wasnt saying that any of the 3 are scammers, but they could be and we wouldnt know til its too latei gave up on this awhile ago cuz apparently i post to much. granted i know ALOT of people on here and have rode with a large part of o.r. I guess my concern is how would it be different had he got an additional 15 posts and you still bought the bike?I mean, we have guys like Kawi Kid that bump and post smilies in every thread and have over 5k posts...

Yous gots way too much college goin' on there, J. All smart an' shit. Nevermind that what appears to be metal flake in your 'engineered' paint is actually sperm since the bodylines of a 'busa make it look like a cumshot with wheels.
