That's completely false.

He may be guilty of being a little aggressive, or eager to learn, or going full speed ahead without knowing much, and may have rubbed some of the veterans the wrong way........but his reputation was never in question. As someone who has done multiple deals with him, I'll attest to that.

pokerplr said the guys reputation wasnt great based on the posts he read, and you answered 'thats completely false' I not sure someone's opinion of posts he read can be completely false.

being rubbed the wrong way can mean many things......

Thanks Jake, and yes the impression I have gathered is that opinion is mixed. Stephen has at least annoyed many members here, myself included. I have read some posts from those who appreciate his enthusiasm and shared positive experiences in transactions. And others that have a problem with his conduct. I already shared my thoughts in this thread so I will leave it at that. But a reputation can be damaged by more than just a bad experience in a transaction or running a scam.

As I rarely see anything negative publicly posted about more than a handful of members I stand by my previous statement. If bpm0014 disagrees so be it.
