I bagged a few Mooches in P & R

[runningman]

I thought I would have some fun with the people that don't pay and come here religiously to download sets. This joke would be even better if I could get a few regulars to go on and say what a great set it is. IF they say they can't get it tell them they will when they donate.. Then BLAME we got'em.... It says sasha and burridge live at zouk sept 2011.

That thread title set off alarm bells seeing as I'm currently in Singapore and no Sasha or Burridge in sight.

Seriously? Though I can relate to your distaste for mooches, this is a very bad idea.

call the internet police because an unrelated person to MS is asking people to donate money...extortion works when your doing it for personal gain...as far as I am familiar with the law of it...

As fun as it may seem, tricking people to give money with misleading information is just not right imo.

While I don't endorse "mooching" doing bullshit like this sends the wrong message to anyone that is considering contributing to the board and sullies its reputation.

Do you fools think this site is free?

Kamal and Pickle I'm sure pay with time and money. Nothing in life is free. It isn't extortion. What I find funny is that people are more mad because I tricked some people into giving money when the banks are robbing us all!!! hahahahah..

This isn't bullshit. This was an experiment. And it was a success IMO. Worst case scenario people are out $10-$20. Great news though. MS will live another day because of it!!

I wonder if the mooches will evolve to Indian giver?

Indian Giver:

Indian giver is an English expression used to describe a person who gives a gift (literal or figurative) and later wants it back, or something equivalent in return.

As much as I enjoy coming to MS, it would be a shame it ended because of your tomfoolery. If anyone were to report it to any bureau that investigates internet fraud, I'd fathom a guess MS wouldn't exist for much long after. Especially since you've blatantly admitted it. Good job!

And don't call any of us fools. It's rude. No one's doubting the time, effort and cash that people put into it. We know it isn't free. Perhaps most people don't thank those behind the curtain enough (myself included) for continuing MS (so, admittedly, thanks to those who deserve it).
