Is it worth the infraction???

[Jrdnsmom]

I hope it's not me is it? I only ask because I don't remember if it was a trade for me or my son. I do see the generosity of traders to my son and I think it is so magical, I just want all to know that any pins I trade for him are really truly 100% for him, I don't manipulate to get a better pin for myself, at least I hope no one thinks that, Its harder when trading for him online than in person because the trader is taking my word for it, honestly I think I always try to be 100% fair when trading for him, actually the only trade I know of that actually was huge in my sons favor was his pin traders delight pin and the trader gave him a friday the 13th scar pin, because Jordan pointed to it and said he liked it a lot. I tossed in an extra pin for that person cause I knew it was an uneven trade, that was probably because my son is 5 and the trader was being very kind and generous. he loves sitting next me when im looking at pins on the forum, he always want to be engaged and he always wants to trade, and he will ask me if I will ask can he trade, and it's true he's little ,he has no idea the concept of the value of a pin, he takes very good care of his pins and each is special to him weather it a rac pin or a L.E, and the same goes when he trades the L.E doesnt mean much to him, lol. he has his own books and lanyards and I let him have fun. Since he has started asking me to trade on the forum, which has only been a couple times, I have always stated this is a trade for my son, but I look fo pins for him too if it's me than I will say I thin my son would like that pin, because I trade pins out of my collection to get for him too! so please, if it's me please PM me I would rather you PM me and get it out so you don't build up anger and dislike for me, but I am crossing my fingers it's not me.

I should add if it is me I really would like a PM so you can let it out so you can relax and feel better and I can work on myself, and this goes for everyone out there, im not going to know that I am angering or frustrating someone if you don't tell me, and I can't fix myself either, I appreciate it if the person who is frustrated talks about it with me and it gives me a greater respect and can even stregthen the friendship. And if it's not me then I think you should try PM'ing the person who is frustrating you, just be honest and calm when writing and as adults the receiver should take the info and respond calmly and respectful too.

Thank You All for all these different posts and suggestions... But to be honest, this is not a snap decision or a knee jerk reaction... It continues to festure with each time this member is mentioned... I have talked with fellow members about this certain individual, and they all have heard of numerous issues with this member and many have had their own personal stories to share... A public bashing... Sure not a nice thing to do, but when someone continuously crosses the line of common morals and nobody speaks up, then they will continue in their ways with everyone just turning the cheek letting the person do this to others... Why must we allow an idiot in our family to continue to hurt those we care about and say nothing about it??? This is not a case for the MOD's as it there is not anything they can do to change the morals of an individual... Sometimes it takes someone to stand up to the idiot and say what it is they are doing that is wrong... You would think if it was yourself doing this and you have had issues with more than one person for any reason, you may want to look at what it is you are doing and realize that it is wrong and you would make a change yourself... Apparantly not in this case as anyone I talk to says... "Oh that person... Yeah..."

I am still on the fence with this whole thing, but I have to say I do love the comment from Mark the best personally...

You get 2 before your booted on the 3rd, maybe having 1 is not so bad? haha. They go away after 90 days.

P.S. I loved the videos...

If its a trading issue, should reflective feedback be left for it? Feedback speaks for itself, and feedback should be left for all transactions. I hear too many times "I'm not going to leave feedback because they are such a nice person." IMO: doesn't matter. Every one should get what they deserve.
