Crazy Uncle Auctions Prevails Over CJDave False Claims

[Leon]

I agree about taking down the fraud's posts. However, there are 401 of them over quite a long time. If they are all deleted it will screw up a ton of threads. So, looking for options as this is posted...

In looking at his posts a little more, It looks like a few of his threads might be the main culprets. Maybe moving those to that private area could suffice?

You did a great job not responding to his BS allegations and handling it the correct way. It must have required a great deal of discipline. I hope you sue him for defamation. You'll have many willing witnesses on this board.

You could always add a disclaimer to all his posts by adding a signature line that appears on all his posts like you have with your name.

"Noted Extortioner/Con-Artist" maybe?

Just seems wrong to destroy evidence of this guys existence/sliminess.

With just the slightest bit of context present, I think the victimized auction house here, comes out ahead.

Maybe they should be the final arbiter here, after a Pow Wow with Leon possibly?

I don't want longterm liability here . I met someone at their table, just walking by, at the National last year and it was one of the known trimmer/fraudsters outed on Blowout. Of course there was a several hundred post thread here too, and he was none too happy about it. I think I told him I would take it down if he told me what happened, he told me he scammed someone or something like that, and I changed my mind LOL. He asked me why, and I said after hearing what the situation was I didn't think taking it down was the right thing to do. So, I actually think just hiding the few threads might work... but still open to other ideas or more thought on the possibilities given.

Leon:

I don't know what to do in this case BUT I might in the thread which ended up accusing the aggrieved party of something which discovered to be false, adding a post at the beginning of the thread with the fact we know now several years later

That way, nothing is deleted, everything is kept as it was in real time but with the perspective of what developed to be the truth several years later so people can read the thread and see how dangerous accusations can really be

Thank you all - appreciate the support.
