I suggest taking this down until further details have come about.  I am not on either side of this, from what I have seen in the mess of chat today, this has all happened fairly recently.  Settle this privately first.

Sounds like you need this (NSFW).

Also, illegal ant trader kids here should bugger off. Seriously, I'm taking names and sending all of you to Trump prison.

Thank you.  We do not need fights breaking out again, like what happened in chat.

Why am I being blamed for something I didn't do, this [censored] is pissing me off. Take this down or edit to the real scammers name: xxApexFuzexx.

You cannot post something about someone when you don't know the situation. I have not scammed and I will never scam. You are being a real jerk right now placing the blame on the wrong person. Please get yourself educated with the situation before posting some fake [censored] please. Either take this [censored] down or edit it it to the real scammers name, idiot.

I am 100% neutral on this, however allow me to clear things up for every body so your not as confused as I was. Solo this player meant to say (xxApexFuzexx) was a scammer, but had him confused with Antkeeperxxx, To my knowledge Antkeeperxxx has nothing to do with this. I don't blame Antkeeperxxx for being upset. However as for xxApexFuzexx this isn't the first time I have heard he was a scammer as he and Kevin were fighting about it in the chat yesterday and Kevin was complaining he was a scammer. So I am not saying he is or isn't a scammer just here giving the facts.

 

Also, as far as kevin goes, I know he started the whole thing about xxApexFuzexx scamming people, whether he did or not, like I said I don't know. However during the argument Kevin did say they should take their discussion elsewhere besides the chat.

 

Overall I just don't want to see people falsely accused, I think some people here are forgetting what this forum is for, " ant keeping" not public arguments. I had watched this forum almost a year before I ever even signed up. I read the posts then, and now reading them today alot of them here recently are pointless, and some peoples comments to them are pointless. I really like this forum people, lets keep it a place to learn and get good helpful information from.

If all you kids weren't trying to ship ants to each other, then you wouldn't have these problems.

TBH, this doesn't look like you're being scammed at all.

Did you trade money or items yet? If not, then he was just informing you the original deal had changed.

 

You should honestly take this down. You're bringing someone else down for your own butt hurt feelings.

I agree that it should be taken down.

I agree that he is a scammer, however this thread was unnecessary and provided weak evidence compared to what I showed in the chatroom.
