I thought this was what the marketplace was for... - rSM- - Jan 28, 2020
I posted on someone's thread a couple days ago asking about some servers, and today I receive a PM from this dipshit who decided to PM me with his little shitty sales pitch. Is this allowed? The thread wasn't his at all and dude thinks he can slide into my dms like that to make a quick sale. Isn't that what the marketplace is for? Look at this sad sap. Shitty company with no customers so this is the only way he can do it LOL

It happens. Next time just forward it to the staff, or cc them. No need for this shit.

Wrong place to promote his sales

It looks as you posting in your own thread. I just want give better offer. As you see it is not spam, just offer on you is to decide to accept or ignore.
Sorry, I am legal company and seller. 🤝

Report him, he is trying to get you to purchase something without a contract, which is a big no no.

Report him to staff. All deals on Hf must be done via the contract system.

I always make contract when customer accept a offer.

Only if you didn't include your website link... Sadly I don't think you can dodge that bullet.

You never implied it though.
You sent him a link to order from, not a link to start a contract.

It happens. I’d take the advice from everybody else. Contracts save lives

While this may be true you still did send your website link in the PM, and you don't have V3ndor either so you're technically not even allowed to link your website regarding sales threads.
What made you PM him with the offer rather than quoting him on the post he made that you saw?
Also rSM- , I understand that it may be annoying receiving a PM like that, however if everyone posted a thread for every time it happened, the Lounge would be absolutely filled to the brim. That and you're just straight up shit talking the guy with no real evidence of his service being a scam, especially seeing he's been here since 2010 and you signed up on the 19th of this month, you should really give more credit than that.
In conclusion, I don't think it's against the rules to discuss sales via PM, however I also don't think you're allowed to just randomly PM users in an attempt at getting a sale. Flegy don't send PM's like that especially with your direct website link without being V3ndor, and rSM- don't post hate/harassment threads please.

Although flegy kinda broke the rules, all the shit talking you did is definitely not a good strategy to make you seem like an adult who can be respected on the forum. When you use that kind of language you just seem like a kid who got angry at the smallest thing.
