is going to introduce a stranger to a booker or org, and you are branding yourself as possible LE by even asking. Yes, there are few morons on here who will give booker names and talk about locations, but for the most part, serious experienced hobbyists are not going to reply to you with the kind of help you are asking for. You're probably a regular guy, but how do we know for sure?
I was not looking for a booker's name nor did I ask for one - just some guidance Lion Heart and I did get a PM with some general guidance and was able to secure an appointment. I think if I got something too specific I would be concerned. I see you reply to quite a bit of these posts and offer some unsolicited guidance. Not sure why. You can choose not to reply if you can not or will not offer assistance. Branding myself as LE? Really? I give LE a lot more credit and they have resources far beyond posting on a discussion board. - I will continue to use the discussion boards for what I want and users have to decide if they feel comfortable to respond to my request. All the best Lion Heart. And I am a regular guy -
Read your original post. The way you worded it was "help a guy out." That is the simple approach LE uses to find some unsuspecting newbie to give up information that he shouldn't. It doesn't matter if the reply is here or in a PM. Information is information. LE vice often pose as members on these kinds of sights. Ask any booker where LE goes to get information. If you don't think LE trolls these boards, and you need to be careful, you are just plain naïve
want to see LE on these boards in action, take a look at today's Las Vegas board and see the cop trying to set up a working girl. As you can see from Kat Kovell's post, Vegas girls are always alert for LE stings. We hobbyists should be, too.
you over value yourself and have entirely too much time on your hand. You are entitled to your opinions but they are just that - your opinions. Like I said - you do not have to to comment to a post and give your unsolicited opinions. You choose to do so maybe because you seem to believe you have something of value to share. The person that helped me out had something of value to share and he did so in such a general way that if I were LE he did not put anyone at risk. LE bust hobbyist and girls all the time - I see the stings on TV quite often. They rarely target a specific person - cast a wide net and they catch all the fish they need to keep the politicians happy. Ignorance is bliss - stay happy. I'll keep posting and hopefully you will ignore them as well as this reply. This is it for me - precious time I'll never get back. Happy hunting Lion Heart.
Don't know what conversations you had privately. I can only comment on the public boards. You do realize that the purpose of a community board like this is to share experience and information that might help others? And that it is almost always going to be "unsolicited" because we are commenting on what others have posted, so no need to get your panties in a bunch. Sometimes comments will be humorous, sometimes helpful and sometimes controversial. Its the nature of the format.
