Unfortunately the user you are trying to reach [mod edit to remove username] is unavailable. In order to reach [mod edit to remove username]... an initial tribute is to be made of $50+ in the form of a Amazon GC or Paypal direct deposit (sent to [mod edit to remove email])



DarkSteven -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 5:28:42 AM)

Nope. It's absolutely NOT ok to give someone's username as you have done.

As far as the okayness of her requesting tribute to proceed - it's okay if YOU think it is. Otherwise, move on. I'd move on.



lizi -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 6:10:41 AM)

You don't expect to get anything for your money except for the pleasure of donating it to this person, right? If that's ok with you, then it's fine with me. It's not something I'd be interested in, but I have nothing to do with how you spend your money now do I?



AthenaSurrenders -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 6:11:58 AM)

I don't know. Do you want to contact this person so badly that you're willing to spend $50 for the privilege of sending a message? You're a grown up and I'm sure you are capable of weighing up the risks and rewards.

But yeh, posting someone's username like that is not ok.

Welcome to the boards.



Toysinbabeland -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 6:21:58 AM)

You already know it's something people do.
You are asking if YOU should do it.


Only if you want to part with 50$.

Posting Names? Priceless mistake.
perhaps she can teach you some etiquette.
Now that's worth more than 50$.




OohAahMrs -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 9:00:22 AM)

$50...........oh come on...........don't give us that!



VideoAdminChi -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 2:45:38 PM)

FR,

This thread is now in Off Topic.



needlesandpins -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 3:23:13 PM)

did you notice the large red words at the top of every mail that warns you NOT to pay money to people for anything?

take your chance. if you really are that desperate then go ahead. however, should you get nothing that you expect then please don't come in here bitching about it.

LadyPact -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 3:41:25 PM)

The determination of "ok" around this joint has everything to do with ToS and the forum guidelines. It's actually not against ToS for any person to say they require a tribute for communications. (The site does warn people not to send money to strangers, but it doesn't demand that you refrain from doing it.) Of course, you're not required to send money any more than the person is required to talk to you.

Of course, seeing that nice Mod edit to your original, I'd be more worried about the latter. Knowing that somebody is the type to blacklist or out others regarding activities are generally the types I stay away from.



FrostedFlake -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 4:08:48 PM)

It's ok with me if you do it.

If you are asking if I would, sure. If you pay me $50.

Of course, lake a dog that caught a car, I wouldn't really want the answer.

What could I possibly do with it?

P.S. Outing folks is considered bad. Don't.



Hillwilliam -> RE: Is this ok? (3/10/2013 5:51:27 PM)

If anyone is stupid enough to fall for the trick mentioned in the OP, please just send the money to me.
