Aight folks! I've been here for a lil longer than a month and I have one pet-peeve that boggles my mind: some new user pops up and asks if the website is legit. Its like...really? Food for thought: ~You walk into a restaurant and ask the staff if the food is good. ~You walk into a salon and ask the employees if they're going to mess up your hair. ~You walk into a bank and ask the tellers if they're going to deduct odd amounts of cash from your account or slap insane over-draft fees on your account non-existent charges. Someone help me out here. The question just doesn't make sense to me. No one on the shoutbox is going to answer the question with, "This website is a complete waste of time! Run while you can! They taketh the soul!" Asking "Is this site a scam?" "Is this website legit?" or "Is this for reelz?" (I've seen that last one
) seems like a step up from rhetorical: you don't answer it or ask it.

You make an interesting point. However, when i was a new user i saw alot of sites that said this was a scam ( i dont know how this is i gotton my first order and im working out my other order issue ). So when i came here im like is this legit? I think maybe the admin might send the new users a message saying they should order the dollar if they dont believe the site because i totally agree ALOT of new users pollute the shoutbox with " Is this real". Obviously the members are going to say it is and i dont think it would really change their minds. Somehow they should find out for themselves by just ordering the dollar dont you think?? |

LOL, yes I myself asked that when I first became a member. The thing is there are lots of sites out there that claim to give *free* stuff and dont, lots are like this. I have actually seen some in my quest for free videogames LOL. I tried a few and most of what I tried were too hard or fake. So I think the reason new members ask is cause they see a lot of *FREE anything sites you kno. |

Good point but if they are silly enough to ask it, then they are stupid enough to belive it. 'Hypothetically Speaking' Exar |
