No one should be ripping anyone off! Anyone who does get ripped off should have the support of the whole OSO comunity to resolve the issue.
That being said as far as the sheet taliking type stuf
I think it all depends on if the things you say are ALL IN GOOD FUN or if its meant to be detrimental to a member of the site. ( sometimes its hard to tell)
Many of us in the NE threads joke around and to the un knowing or newbie it can come across really bad, But for the group of us who know eachother its all in good fun.
( sometimes someone wanders in and gets dragged into it)
Even with us though it sometimes does get old and we call eachother and say F U !
I realize were probably not the group your speaking of but thats my take on it!

i am very curious to know if there has been an outcome to this thread......
good/bad or indifferent......
seems everyone has their finger in the pie and more than a few frayed nerves also
OSO has a responsibility to do everything by the book
even though the direct route is often way faster and more satisfying
rather than going public with these kind of rip off and scaring whomever is responsible into the cracks......
why not walk softly and carry a big stick........
set the fools up for the fall of their lives
