Popular Post chrisco37 Posted November 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2021 That was a great time on the boards. Thanks for the link. It even has the legendary Scarface "A Few Good Men Post". Spoiler C-K: You want answers? CBG: I think we're entitled to them. C-K: You want answers? CBG: I want the truth! C-K: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH ! ! ! Son, we live in a world that has comics. And those comics have to be restored by men with tools. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Steve Borock? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for restored books and you curse the scammers. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that restoration, while tragic, probably saves comics. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves comics...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that book. You need me on that book. We use words like trim, color touch, staple replacement...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent as a power seller. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very pristine books I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide them! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up an x-acto knife and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to! CBG: Did you restore your books? C-K: I did the job I needed to do. CBG: DID YOU RESTORE YOUR BOOKS? C-K: YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I DID ! ! !

steveinthecity Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Wouldn’t redacting (or blacking out) your own eBay ID work? We could still see the message chain for both parties I believe. Larryw7 and The Lions Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone honestly tell me......if accusations were being leveled at you for this long......and they were false.......that you wouldn't have absolutely lost your s**t by now? Would any long time board member care to tell us who this reminds them of? Why should I lose it? Tell you what. The whole issue is worth it. It's worth defending. Anyone here remember what the general and ebay marketplace were like before CGC opened up? The hobby was stagnant. Some fluidity, but not much. CGC changed this hobby for the better the same way that Babe Ruth saved baseball after the BlackSox scandal. Anyone that prospers or benefits in some way from the hobby today should be on their hands and knees thanking CGC and all involved for the incredible marketplace we have for the last 20 years and today, the same way Mrs. Ruth told the Colonel that he should be thanking Babe Ruth for saving baseball. Did anyone buying or selling comics in pre-CGC era even think that the marketplace would be where it is today? It would still be the Wild West and doomed to remain that way without CGC. Gratitude is the source of my patience and extended helpfulness and good will here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all interested in seeing the posts between you and Danny Black it out? And then you know it's me or when sent, how? Once everybody sees it and realizes, "Say wait a second. I can do this too!" we'll be back to other solutions for proof. What is the next major convention and where? That is the only way. And then again, unless I present all my personal photo info, how do we know I didn't send someone in my place? Everybody wants proof so badly, here and now, that you're not all thinking of the only positive way to ID. In person, present photo ID, answer questions, a 3 part ID process. That's the only way. Everything else suggested can be faked, which in your eagerness is being overlooked. Which I might add I do appreciate because of actually trying to allow me to ID.

kav Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Tell me how a video chat with me could be faked. I could ask about various posts of yours over the years, boardies, running board jokes. No way you could prep someone to take the test for you. You could wear a mask. All I need to see is your forehead. Cupcak has a very distinctive fo'head. If you say "I could get another boardie I know to do it for me" well then have that boardie vouch for you. And I dont think that would even work because I could randomly access any of your posts from years ago-no boardie is going to memorize all your posts.

One by one as he refused to answer questions or shied away from suggestions to prove his identity we all said sadly omg it really is him. All it would have taken to convince me he wasnt was: Show anitpathy towards known scammer Cupcak Take pic of his forehead over computer screen. Have someone vouch for him. Any one of these. Very simple things would have convinced me anyway instead it was "that wont help at all! It can be faked!" Yet he has spent a lot of energy in denials which....havent helped at all. So I dont buy the wont help at all argument. Is this some sort of new poetic meter? kav and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
