Because Will is unwilling to take responsibility for an issue that is clearly not in his favor, that the majority of the community has spoken on, and that an admin has made a recommendation for in order to keep his pockets lined.
I'm not trying to interfere with the highly-trusted members of sythe here, but "R2pleasent" needs to man up here and pay the price.
I don't know if most of you taking his side have no business experience or any logical thoughts, so let me explain it to you quickly. "Will" was basically his employee. Either that or they were BUSINESS partners. "R2pleasent" gave "Will" his good name and rep in exchange for 50% of the profits. And if he wasn't an employee (as explained before), he was a business partner. If your business partner scams someone in your business, you are also held responsible.
I could go on for a few more paragraphs but that's just the shortened version of my argument. Not trying to flame, it's just my $0.02 .
For clarification, Will = R2. James = Will's associate.
Huh? I thought I asked a fair question. I wouldn't hold you accountable for an unsubstantiated scam report, should R2P be different?
Didn't Will openly admit that yes, James scammed, but he doesn't think he should be held accountable for refunding it?
Did he admit to this case specifically? If so, and if James was his business partner, then maybe he should be held accountable here. Otherwise it just seems like another unsubstantiated scam report to me, which I would archive regardless of the accused user.
Splitting profits would make them business partners.
so why again isn't there a ban or refund?
does it matter how much "good" r2 has done for the site or in general in the past if he scammed now because whose to say "james" isnt r2.....
Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely
He is by no means corrupt and has rightfully earned the highly trusted rank. He just has begun to place more emphasis on stuffing his wallet then on providing a good service.
