can we get a section to post the flakes from Facebook and arms list among other places so other people locally don't have to deal with the same idiots

Start a thread "CG/Armslist/Facebook Flakes" and maybe the powers will make a perm sticky out of it

It is my opinion that it would turn into a thread bash of other forums/sites. We have enough to worry about here and it has been proven that some that chose to be assholes on other forums, they have no problem following the rules here.

I think it's a pretty good idea

dont see how. and thats just assinine thinking of it that way.
its about letting people know that such and such is a flake and to not deal with them.
its to keep others from having to deal with people that are untrustworthy
its like a sex offender registry for people.
you post the facts and give info. only people that are against it are ones who would be on it

Exactly, especially when they may not be a member on here. People would be bashing them left and right based on ONE side of the story? Naw, that's not what a community is about. Now that being said, I have seen on other sites threads called "Armlist Morons", "Crap you see on the interwebz" etc that will include links ( screenshots are better) of asinine ads that we can all laugh at together.... These types of threads work very well in panic periods. I like those threads.

why not host a site that you could share the link to? why start what could and most possibly turn into a armslist/sgcuntz vs waguns war?
kind of like hotgunz.

Or, to put a positive spin on things, how about a "good guy/ gal" thread? That would serve the new folks who are honest and have not had a chance to gen up a bunch of feedback points.

yeah the dont rock a sinking ship way.
the its not happening to me so i dont care way.
a community helps others by letting others know when there are shady people around. or do most of you close the blinds and only worry about onesself?
reason neighborhood blocks were created

Define what you think is a "flake". Now ask ten other people. Their definitions will vary from your own. That is only one of the problems with your idea. It has been tried on other forums and fallen flat. Besides, if you stick around here long enough you learn who the flakes are.
