No, unfortunately we aren't the sales police. There are always 2 sides to a story and we arent' going to ban someone based on a complaint from someone else.
A good practice is to deal with longer term members of the board, rather than people that just pop up for one or two sales. If you're considering buying something from someone, look at previous sales history, PM someone that dealt with that person. In all the years we've been here, I can only think of three incidents where there was questionable dealings. Overall that is pretty good.

I think this sort of system has the potential to create more problems than it solves.

What about even LFS. I have just had an incident with one that I would certainly like to inform people of.

Nope, just starts arguments. Best thing to do is not shop there anymore, if they continue to **** people off, they go out of business.

Unforunately no to the LFS's too. Sorry.. We actually had a forum for vendor reviews a few years ago. It became an administrative nightmare.

I've found that the best two ways to settle a disagreement with a vendor: talk to them directly and voice your concerns; or let your wallet do the talking.

I totally hear what you are saying. I have resolved my situation I hope, I will find out tomorrow, it would just be nice to, I guess warn others of what to be leary of. Don't get me wrong, I am not one to go around bad mouthing LFS or anyone else for that fact.

{aww, nevermind} I just deleted my answer and will leave it at that. If thats how you and/or other members think of the staff make board decisions, then its just plain sad.

I for one, will inform Titus of my resignation and you can apply for the position, then perhaps make some changes if thats how you wish the board to be.
