Get a rope.
Just kidding. Starting a separate thread to apologize was a good guy thing to do. Flame wars have been fought over smaller faux pas.
Oh, you posted a link to your own auction and pretended like it wasn't yours? Odd considering people would probably be more likely to bid if they knew it was someone on this site...
I'm very sorry and feel like a jerk I hope you guys will forgive me this was a stupid thing to do and I am very sorry
The only difference between him and everybody else is that he's the only one
that ever felt guilt for doing it!
It was a mistake and somewhat harmless. But it's probably a good way to learn. It's pretty easy to lose credibility quick when dealing on a forum where a lot of people don't know you.
Good luck with your ebay sale in any case.
Thanks guys Im glad some of you are understanding I really am sorry and am an honest person im sincerely sorry to all.
Quoted from pinballwizardz:I really am sorry and am an honest person
If everybody was as honest as you, we wouldn't have to talk about
out of control pinball prices. Shall we start another thread relating to that?
about counter productive to me, would have thought people here would be more likely to bid on it knowing it's from a member here rather then a random ebayer who could be screwing them
Quoted from krupa:You started a Cheap Trick? I love a Cheap Trick! It's a all good!
The pinball police, they live inside of my head.
The pinball police, they come to me in my bed.
The pinball police, they're coming to arrest me, oh no.
Wouldn't this be a little more sincere if the OP hadn't posted which game was being sold on Ebay, instead of drawing more attention to the fact that he's trying to sell a game?

WOW! The OP is even more cunning than I thought. Diabolical. A phony apology for even more pin pimping, Brilliant!!! I will use this technique next time I decide to sell something.
Not to pile on too much, but the timeline suggests that you only apologized for this pump-and-dump because you got caught. So that's where my problem is. It would be another ballgame if you decided to fess up on your own.
Quoted from RobT:I'm obviously missing something here.
He had another thread where he said check out this pin on Ebay, but it was his, and he didnt mention it.....Not that big a deal but slightly odd. Happy pinballin Sucka's!
For what it's worth, I'd say don't worry about it.
Your future actions will build your reputation on here.
You could have done a lot worse IMO.
so he just reffered to hime self or his machine in the 3rd person??? whats the crime bob dole did it all the time
