basmic pre-empts himself getting rumbled for poop stirring? :p

Indeed. Really, when he saw Benjarghmin and Legoman taking flack, he really should've owned up immediately. But I think he was unsure as to whether he should own up or wait till he was rumbled (for all he knew, he may never have been rumbled, in which case he would've got away with it).

In any case I think he should apologise to Legoman and Benjarghmin, as they effectively took the blame for a short while.

PS. I find it amazing that as basmic is someone with 1000s of posts, he should effectively get away with it without being flamed, while Benjarghmin doesnt even do anything and was having to take flack. Kind of seems unfair, but thats life I guess.

After seeing how this thread has developed, and watched the backstabbing and accusations flying all over - my conscious has finally got the better of me. :o

It was me who emailed greeny, using a spare eBay account I have. I'm not sure why greeny made the name of person that messaged him up - perhaps to provide me with some level anonymisation, for some reason.

I forget the name of who greeny said messaged him, but it was not the one I used. Maybe more than one person did message him. :confused:

This is the exact message I sent to greeny122229:I felt he should know what people were saying about him, and possibly both users may come to some sort of resolution. I admit it, I did enjoy seeing people play the guessing game - but that was not part of my intentions.

I expect to be flamed harshly for this. Whether my principles were right or not, is for everybody to decide.

At the end of the day, me linking greeny to this thread allowed myself and OcUK members to see both sides of the coin, as well as view the (unexpectedly) resolvement of the situation.

I offer my apologies to those that were wrongly accused of messaging greeny. Sorry for the trouble caused amongst users, due to false accusations.

I do not feel I have broken any of OcUK's rules. If so, then I would appreciate users quote the appropriate part of the FAQ and pointing out exactly how I've broken which rule/s.

Finally, I feel I deserve a thanks from the OP for assisting them in the resolvement. I expect they could turn around and say "but you linked greeny here" - I will then turn right around and say "and look who has got their £120 back, with my 'help'".
I respect you for owning up to something you may well have gotten away with, but I still don't think it was the right thing to do.

I'd sooner own up and explain why, rather than dribs and drabs coming from somebody else.

The flack/flames don't bother me, TBH. I've seen all the goodness these forums have to offer. ;)

So what's the difference between somebody who has 100 posts and somebody who has 10,000? Why should the person with more posts be given more grunt?

Stop trying to **** stir.

Did anyone come out and say that he was the snitch?

It's obvious that a lot thought this (myself not included) but how many actually made the accusation outright?

I don't think he's saying you should be given more grief, I think he's commenting on how a lot of people found it more acceptable for me to be the snitch, due to my lower post count and shorter membership.

I see - well, not intentional digs out, but members with low postcounts do tend to be victimised on OcUK. :(
 
On the one hand i can understand why people might be a little annoyed that you linked to the thread, but then again its a public forum so cant really complain of lack of privacy and your reasoning is good enough for me.

Either way at the end of the day everything is sorted.

any may i say the thread was a fantastic read although it did take AGES :eek:

Precisely.

It wouldve been interesting to see what the reaction of people on this forum wouldve been had Benjarghmin said, "It was me." Unfortunately, we will never know now.

Its just interesting how humans behave.
 
I have nothing constructive to add to this but i would just like to say that after reading this whole thread tonight, starting on my laptop until the battery died, then finishing off on my mobile phone. My eyes hurt and its well past my bedtime as im up at 5am. Much more entertaining than thursday night TV. im glad its all sorted. I just hope i dont have to start a thread tomorrow saying how i crashed my car on the m1 due to excess tiredness.

night.
 
Jesus that took me two and half hours to read. My eyes hurt. They really do esp since I have conjunctivitis atm :(

May I just add that it was a tremendous read, and kudos to Explicit for helping hyper for free. And well done to Hyper for getting his money returned :)
