Be Careful who you let into your place / see your tank

[tebstan]

I believe the difference of opinion comes from the possibility that we are thinking of two different words, due to the asterisks. There is a difference between making people upset, and screwing them over.

The OP had something happen that hurt him, and his tank. He came to his friends at the local club to vent. He did not name names or point fingers. I was skeptical, too. I can understand why some people are in the “why even post” camp. However, I still sympathize with his loss.

I agree with Mr Cob that the intent of this thread is obscure. Whether the thread can be locked or removed is up to the mods. I don’t see any rules being broken, unless the repeated use of inappropriate language on a family friendly site counts?

ryan just came in and said, "hey, watch yourself, some people are shady," which is undoubtedly true. his story is fantastical, but so what, he came here to say be careful, and we are quick to call him a liar or accuse him of dishonesty. Ryan came here to issue a warning, and we are so worried about how his fish disappeared that we aren't listening to his quite valid message. truth is it is always risky to let people into your home, be they the cable guy, your friends roommate, some person from craigslist or the maintenance guy. i cannot count the times either i or someone i knew had something go missing. remember it, but don't dwell. there is an explanation, but oftentimes you will never hear it. Ryan, sorry for your loss, either by nature or man, and to the rest of you, know that you should be careful who you allow into your world, because you can't always trust people to act as you would.

Ryan,

I'm locking the thread, as it does seem that many of the comments that are coming about are a bit off the original mark intended. I'll confer with the other moddies and see if this thread should be moved to the lounge as suggested.

And, Ryan, please... if you feel that I've locked this prematurely please send me a message and I'll unlock it immediately, cool?
