If Mr. Admin doesn't PM you about your rudeness level, you're probably doing just fine.
(Though, honestly, I haven't been reading this thread very carefully.)
It would be handy to provide links to those discussions for people to see how this all works.

Remember GB just takes your money and passes your order around until they find someone who agrees to make/sell/ship something that’s sort of like what you think you bought.
We know they don’t check the quality of the stuff being sent out under their name. Painting the BLF name on the product doesn’t mean much.
That’s business in China, as the stories in any of the links from that search will confirm.
Hey, guess what — they’re building a whole lot of new nuclear power plants right now.
And we all live downwind.
Thanks. Thinking of getting a second account, but not at $40-50.
Heck, your good Glenn! You are one of the nicest people on this forum. :+1:
Like DBSAR said, anonymous sniping will occur; that is sad but it happens. Just let it be like water off a ducks back and keep on going.
the astrolux S42 fiasco, how about the BLF348 latest GB were they just went down in quality without mentioning (tailcap threads are horrible, color temp change of the LED). Or changing the driver of the A01 without mentioning it.

BLF348:
My two arrived today. On one of them the threads are really loose. Even when it is about 3/4 “tightened” it is loose and would still cross thread if you weren’t careful. It’s only the last turn that actually tightens but I think that will also loosen with use. Disappointed.
If you slide the clip to just below the line for the top it won’t press against the bottom. [image] (Pic is from Flashlion’s Review).
I received my lights today and honestly I am a little disappointed in the thread quality and the LEDs. I have one light which I would consider neutral white - high CRI, the rest are all varying shades of green. I have a few Astrolux A01s to compare them to and the tints seem way off on the majority of the 348s. The threads are very loose and very easy to cross thread; as a gift item I am concerned they will get cross threaded by an inexperienced user. I still and very grateful for all who coord…
Don’t feel bad not to long ago I had 9 rudeness marks against me. They’ll go away one per 24 hours. I still think the system should tell you who did it and not leave it anonymous. Even better would be a little testicular/ovarian fortitude and send a pm to a member directly if you have a problem with a comment they made

Yes & Amen. :+1: … Anonymous sniping can get out of hand sometimes.
Hmmmmmm, you say…… “They’ll go away one per 24 hours.” That is good to know.
After a recent “outbreak” I should be good to go again by about Labor Day.
Barring any more unfortunate circumstances that is…….
Hmm, I just noticed 1 “rudeness” in that bargraph, and I have 0 idea what may have triggered it.
Looked an “my account”, “my posts”, “my threads”, nothing.
How do you find out what got someone all torqued?

A quick way is just click the link in my sig line that says “Rudeness Level”.
It will take you to the place that all will be revealed concerning your “infraction”.

Wow. Amazing what some people consider “rude”…
And from weeks ago, yet.
But anyway, how’s a normal person supposed to be able to find this link? Seems buried, with nothing else linking to it.

Yes, it is buried and difficult to find.
Mr. Admin provided a link to it quite a while ago, and I bookmarked it.
Where were we. Oh yeah. Should we ban banggood? lol!
I've had a pretty good experience with Banggood, though I haven't ordered anything from them in a while.
Back in May, I PM'd swi to see if BG would like to sponsor a 2017 NBA Finals giveaway, but swi never got back to me.
I got 3 “rude” posts. One of which was definitely rude but the others?
received a fake hugsby from ebay seller junnyshop8988 not only was it fake but it came with a broken lens, heavely scratched body and dented body. I contacted the seller asking for a refund. Good thing I only paid $2. It was obvious a fake with shiny tail cap, no hugsby printed on the body and I don’t believe it was anodized but powder coated or something. Since it’s a fake I assume this is not a real CREE XPE-R3 LED. Don’t know if it’s possibe to see in these pictures but could someone confirm it’s a fake?
just looked at the x-ray again and omg Facepalm
wood screws, really? Come on, this is not something I would expect from a top of the line company like nitecore claims to be. Nuts and bolts of the right length and size is what I wanne see, not just some random screws they find in the janitors storage room.
awaiting more rude points
I've got 9 rude posts, but they're all pretty innocent.
Lately I've been going out of my way to not be rude, and that's a good thing.
I see nothing rude in the 2 posts above. Wood screws in a flashlight?
Where were we. Oh yeah. Should we ban banggood? lol!
Naaaah, they are OK…….
@ Lightbringer…… if you cannot find it click the link to it in my sig line. It is there & gonna stay there… for me & as a “public service” to others…
I got a feeling that maybe some vendors are responsible for the rude points……
