Is this a threat that I can report to staff? - Arptastic - Sep 8, 2016
A member pmed me this because I commented on his service prices and said that he's getting no customers because his prices are much higher then other offering the same service on here?
Here's the message, is this a threat that I would be able to report to the staff? I'm scared.

The last part, can definitely be taken as a threat. However, I wouldn't report anything, unless it goes any further. But I mean, you can if you're worried for your safety.

Yeah right, he's coming for you. Put that guy on your ignore list, with pleasure. ✌

Screenshot the rep, save it on your PC, put the user on your ignore list, wait to see if he actually does something. If something does happen, report him.

You can't intimidate others for rep
report him to Omniscient with sufficient proof

You're not scared and stop this 'im scared' nonsense. You want him banned. Just ignore him.

Well with only threats you can't do much but adding him in your ignore list. Though he's asking directly for rep, just report it and Omniscient will handle the case.

That's a direct violation right here, provide Omni both PM's and he is done for sure.
* - Bluffer - Sep 13, 2016
That last part is pretty threatening and is also abusing the reputation system by asking for rep, you can forward it directly to Omniscient and he will take care of the situation how he see fits.

He should actually report him right away. First off, he's breaking the "no asking of reputation" rule. A threat is a threat because it's a clear statement that something harmful will happen to him if he does not comply with this person's wishes. If he waits for something to happen and it does happen, it's an offense or malicious act. Not a threat anymore.

Definitely if this is real the staff will definitely consider those threats and they won't tolerate it.
However (not saying this is true at all, but only just possible) if this is you faking and making a fake screen shot the admins DO pick up on that too, and I have known them to repkill people who tried sending fake screenshots to get others in trouble.
