Grundy #1 Posted November 21, 2007 Hey all. I just want some good games to play, I'm not bothered if they have ratty labels or whatever. I have plenty to swap, just see my trade list. -Sega Game Gear and games -Virtual Boy games -few NES games -Genesis games -PS1 games -PS2 games -DVDs -Massive action figure collection -48 X CD burner -ETC. The good thing for me is, 90% of my favorites for the 2600 are considered "common". I remember my two older sisters getting a system for their 8th grade graduation, their two favorites were Stampede and Centipede....odd the things you remember, eh? Thanks. -Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #2 Posted November 21, 2007 Where is your trade list? I literally have hundreds of common 2600 carts with crappy labels.. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grundy #3 Posted November 21, 2007 Hey Al. Well, a good part of my list is in my above message...just ask for specifics. My fiancee and I are primarily toy collectors, but a while back at a yardsale I got a "Heavy Sixer" and a FLOOD of GREAT memories came back, so now i need some FOOD for it. I managed to grab THESE thus far: (this area may be redneck hell, but its GREAT as far as fleas and GoodWills and so forth are concerned..) -Flash Gordon -Bank Heist -Fantastic Voyage -Pac-Man -Asteroids ..and a few others I cant think of at the time. Thanks. -Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert #4 Posted November 21, 2007 I may be interested in some DVDs depending on what you have. Can you send me a list? thanks, ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grundy #14 Posted November 21, 2007 He is not Pooyan....unless that is a new slang curse word that I don't know about... I looked under the 'members list' section and found said 'Pooyan'. What Im wondering here is, WHY am I thought to be said person?? I see that the person's name is Joe, as is mine, but other than that, whats the "connection" ?? I see the person also had a post about a Nomad system, and he/she/whomever also uses a fair amount of the little smiley faces and such, like myself, but...?? Confused by this is all... -Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're not Joe Rodd, then this suspicion about your identity will seem confusing and unfair, I'm sure. Nonetheless, the suspicion has been raised and the cat's out of the bag now. Fair or unfair, I'm afraid the onus is going to fall upon you to prove your identity. If you're not Joe Rodd, then you have my sincere apology for suggesting that you might be. If you are Joe Rodd...

Hmmmmm....well, as far as "proving", I have nothing to prove to anyone...go to several action figure/toy sites that I belong to and you will SEE the quality of MY character. I understand suspicion, due to the sad fact that the internet is chock FULL of scumballs and scammers out to do ugly things, but I ASSURE you, whatever "coincidences" or seeming "similarities" you are drawing between ME and said "Pooyan" character are UTTERLY UNfounded. Seems that said person did some scummy acts around here from what I have just heard from you and via some PMs with friends here, but to suggest that I'M that person is actually quite offensive sir. As I just said though, I DO understand...to a DEGREE...NObody wants to get scammed or get involved with a dirtball, but to seemingly "accuse" another right off the GET-go, well sir, that to ME seems a little bit presumptious and moreso, downright RUDE. Its rather like saying that a man named Adolph that enjoys militaria-type clothing and wears a short moustache must be Adolph HITLER himself, eh? Sorry to those reading these past few posts, but it really gets my goat when people QUESTION my character. I'm FAR from a perfect person, but to imply or suggest that I am some sort of rip-off artist, well, that shit doesnt fly with me...

Understand that I am only looking out for my fellow AA members. I'm obligated to do that. You must also understand just how upset people are with Joe Rodd. The similarities between you and him are too great to simply ignore them. I'm sure you understand the concerns some of us have about your identity in light of those realities. Don't take it personal.

Understood Cam. I won't say no offense taken, because there was. And as to "looking out for fellow members"...well, doing said "act of decency" and seemingly accusing a person of being someone that is a scam artist and low-life, those are two VERY different things. This could have been handled FAR differently....for example, like maybe NOT speaking of "suspicions" and displaying a little skull face.... But all is fine...I know who I am and don't need to 'prove' myself to anyone, my character speaks for itself. What angered me and offended me wasnt that you THOUGHT I was someone else, no, it was the way that both you and 'hugged' PHRASED yourselves...via gestures and accusation. If you were to have said, mayhaps, "Hey..you exibit TRAITS or seem to come-OFF like said person, ARE you him/her?" ..That might have been different, but nope, you chose the low road. Whomever this 'Joe Rudd' is, I'm assuming he was a real dickwad.. But anyhow... -Joe By the by...."Hugged" ? Maybe you could at least have the balls to ASK if I am said person you are ACCUSING me of being rather than spit out: "Pooyan? " I mean damn, if you are going to make an attempt at an unfounded witch hunt, at least have the intellect and tact to do it RIGHT. -Joe Edited November 22, 2007 by Grundy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one accused you of anything, nor has anyone been unfair to you. hugged simply wondered if you were Pooyan and I simply echoed the implied and worrisome suspicion. I don't think those emoticons mean what you think they mean. As I said to you privately, if you make an attempt to understand the concerns some of us have about your identity, you will see that those concerns are perfectly legitimate, given the realities of our experiences with Pooyan. I realize that you feel persecuted, but, unfortunately, this situation reflects the reality of establishing one's veracity in an largely anonymous setting that demands mutual trust. You're not the first person to have their identity questioned on this forum and you won't be the last. Please try to take it in stride and not so personally. You're making more out of this than is necessary. I wish Joel Park was around. Edited November 22, 2007 by Christophero Sly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadow460 #23 Posted November 22, 2007 Scamming and fleecing? There's nothing wrong with asking for something you want. I've done it. I've been know to ask if there are unsellable games in any given store, and accept them if they're offered. I ask once, though, and if the answer's "no", I go on about my business. Usually I'll buy a few games from the place anyway. That said, I've got spares right now of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Space Invaders, E.T., and Atlantis with the day scene label. If you want them, send me a PM. I may actually send out my personal Atlantis day scene cart and keep the one from the trade bin...I haven't decided yet. Either way, one's up for grabs. As long as it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to ship to Eternia, it's all good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadow460 #25 Posted November 23, 2007 Hmm, not sure on that. I didn't know if you had copies of these already, but aside from the Atlantis, they aren't worth a lot. Atlantis might be worth a little more than the rest since it's got the day picture. If you want, cover the postage. It shouldn't be a whole lot. Actually, do you have a copy of Karate Kid II lying around? DVD or VHS would be fine, either way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
