First off, I hope this is the best forum. I know there was a kind of complaint thread on him SOMEPLACE on Dakka, thought I don't know where. I couldn't find it.

Here goes:

=========================================================

As you may be aware, The Drop Zone, an online and brick & Mortar retailer has been accused of scamming NO LESS than 9 gamers.
 
Here is a link to my complaint on Bartertown.com.
 
 
If you have been scammed by him, or know someone who has, follow this link, or provide it to them to follow.
It has important legal information on Robert, as well as numerous phone numbers (including his home number).
 
Additionally, here is a link to a post that has compiled a list of the traders there who are complaining, as well as a link to each of their threads:
 
 

If you think he's scammed you... He probably has.

I am posting this in hopes that
a) It stops him from scamming more people out of their money and
b) It helps anyone scammed to find Robert and file legal complaints to the appropriate authorities.

Yes, Malfred. That is correct.
You can only complain on BTown if the trade was initiated there.
That's why my actual complaint thread is there.

I was posting the links HERE so that interested parties could peruse the facts.

As stated, I managed to get quite a bit of contact information on Robert, and I listed it all in my complaint.

It also encourages those who were scammed to file complaints (and gives some contact info on who to complain to).

Why is this in News and Rumors? It fits neither....

Magickal, I realize you've been scammed and you certainly have an axe to grind against TDZ but there's a forum in Discussion on this already...maybe you could post all this there?

I think you were looking for Iorek's Hey, "The Drop Zone"... thread which had moved back to page 2 of the general discussions board.

This sounds like news to me (and if not, I'm sure one of the mods will be by shortly to relocate this). At the very least it's an alert for people who have been burned by TDZ on trades originated on Bartertown to go there and line up. TDZ gonna get his white ass beat on like a rented mule.

I wouldn't call this news given that there's nothing really new here that hasn't already been covered in the thread you linked.  I don't necessarily mind another thread on this topic, but it should really be moved to the discussion forum.

I'd call this news, at least until TDZ issues are cleared up one way or the other, I'd even ask for this post to be stickied at the top.

You should have read more closely...

Quote me:

I kind of acknowledged that right up front, man.

Thank you for that link. I appreciate it greatly.

 

I will go and post there right away!

---and I thought I had new information. After all, I have his HOME phone number. I didn't think anyone had that.
