Good news - Bought a 19" LCD monitor and a vga cable. The shift from SD to HD gaming brought tears to my eyes.. :jumpy:

 

Ghastly news - After 20 minutes of gaming on the new rig, my out of region, out of warranty 360 RROD'D!!! :samui: :cursing: :chair: :cry5: :ko2:

After nearly two years of flawless performance!! I couldn't believe it! I checked the signs, the indicators.. anything that would give an indication that it was something else. Alas! It was the perfect case of RROD.

 

Suicide preventing news - With nothing to lose, I checked online for the "ghareloo" remedies for an RROD fix. Came across this intriguing "Towel Trick" that supposedly fixes the RROD temporarily. Tried it! and IT WORKED!! Played for roughly 12 hours after that.. so far so good.. But now i live in fear :nerves:

Hey Gautam, I'm in the same position as you :O

 

Apparently there's a guy in Meerut who can fix it for 700 bucks. What's your RROD error code?

Sad new- I have been banned from GI.

 

Even more Sad news - for life time

 

Saddest news - everyone voted me out...without listening my part of the story...its highly unjustified....

 

so i rejoined just to clarify my part...

 

 

chaztin has been a member for a long time....since proboards....and those on proboards know the incident between him and sanjoy....we still allowed him to return to GI.....it would take something very serious for me to ban a senior member like him...thats all i'll say

peace

 

I asked mod to do it for sm1..i wasnt paying any mod...do u guys think i would that too in dollars? I wasnt involved in this thing directly..and I did think 3-4 months back.

 

and the person to whom i did this was informed.

 

okay....well here it is

 

chaztin offered a GI moderator a substantial amount of money (in dollars) to have certain other members banned from the forums

 

regardless of what anyone else would do in this situation, i wont stand for it...and yes i have proof that this happened

peace

 

did the right thing bro...sometimes decisions are really hard ...but taking it at the right time saves from a lot of troubles that can come in future.... :D

 

hhmm

 

Well.

 

I've had a bad experience with Chaz aswell.

 

I wanted to sell off/trade my zune and buy a 360, i saw chaz started a thread looking for one. I contacted him and He said he'd trade the zune bundle with his falcon 360 + cash. But he literally made me wait a month. And i was totally pissed off and i told him that i won't be dealing with you since you're not the man of your words.There were PLENTY of things which made me suspicious. But i won't go into details as to what were those things. But i agree with arjun that its very hard to get in touch with him. At that time i was lacking posts to be able to post in the trading post.

 

It was all fine, deal ended without any loss for either of us, but suddenly this guy started abusing, i blocked him on msn and GI. Later on things got worse when he started sending me utterly vulgar sms abusing my mother, my family and my self. This was a breaking point for me and I literally decided to take these sms'es to police. I warned him if he can apologize or else I am going to police, and he apologized and it ended there.

 

Since that day he's on my block list on GI.

 

Just thought i should share my experience. Not expecting anyone to take any action otherwise i would've posted earlier. I just thought this was the right time to share.

 

I finally sold my zune bundle to m-Jeri and bought the 360 from arjun :D, who unfortunately is the victim this time around. :( Hope he can get his money back.

 

Mate, I hope you remember what happened. I was the one who did put forward the deal. I had two consoles...one was stuck in customs, other i bought in the mean time....I was having a deal with you where we were gonna exchange my console with ur music player Zune.

 

But at the last moment i did pull away the deal, coz i learned frm one of my fellow GIan that the piece iwas buying is quite old and might have bug..

 

To this, you started replying me by sms .. " I never had two consoles, who can buy two consoles, why would one buy two consoles, u wer fooling me, you are a scam, you are no less then any a scam n all...." Didnt YOU " ?

 

and all this deal and everyhting was going thru SMSs....we just talked on pm once b4 this, that also on erodov and we were dealing thru erodov firstly I think.

 

You ( shockwave ) won a Tata indica for making some advertisement...and there was a lady in that advertisement...plus also had ur brother in it...

 

 

So out of frustration I told you, GO f**k that lady along with ur brother.....you revealed later that she was ur mom....didnt u? did i knew b4 that, that it was ur mom? did i??? i didnt coz u didnt tell me...

 

now hw can u say buddy that i abused by sms ur mom, dad and bro...?? yes, then not only me, but we both exchange few power packed bad words in PM....of GI....we did.

 

but tell me....was it my fault absolutely?? and was i intentionally abusing ur mom?? Yet i did apologized coz i wasn't knowing it was ur mom....

 

Really shocking to know that shockwave...i have dealt wit u few times and you are one of my favourites guys who i trust fully...you knw that 2 bro...how can sum1 abuse u and family ...disgustin!

You should have informed mods n admin about it that time only

 

Were initially weren't dealing thru this website..we were dealing thru erodov...later i put my xbox on this site and he read that and our deal over xbox came to existence..so it was thru erodov.

 

By principle arjun should be getting his 6000back...really he is the person who is suffering most due to this nonsense guy...

 

??

 

 

 

 

@Everyone..do you guys think this was correct?

 

Just going through words of one guys not listening to the accused can u say that I was criminal ?? ( talking about shortwaves case )...yes to an extent I was, for which, I did apologize from him....

 

 

about the Godspeeds case...I bought Gears of war from him...hadn't payed him yet, so i asked if he wanted some game in exchange, he was ready for grid, but wanted it for 700 where as i wanted to sell it for 800 so we didn't agree initially, later I agreed on 700....but next day I didn't feel like selling it for that price so i kept him and paid him for Gears....IS this wrong? This has happened to me many times...bt its about deal...nothing bad at my end...

plus it just happened once...i don't remember which second time he is talking about.

 

@Mods and Admin, is it this must justified to ban me permanently...? a month or two is agreeable over this... Please do rethink upon it. Thanks.

 

I wasn't involved in this at all....sm1 asked me to ask mod, so i just asked mod.

WOW!!! :D and i thought i was the only politician here.........anyways had made a deal for philips speakers with him 3 days back not metioned in trading posts, i guess it would be better to cancel the deal out.

btw personally i felt he was a nice guy its sad he has to leave GI :D

 

I am a nice guy, haven YOU DONT ANYTHING WRONG IN LIFE? EVER? and does that think snatch away the right to call u nice? Nope, it doesnt..unfortunately, good deeds never count when u hv done even 1 lil thing in a wrong way.

 

Well all i can say about chaz is that if a guy who sells 100's of things is always bound to make a few (mistakes) bad ones i have dealt with chaz and many others on various ocation's who have had great deals from him... But regarding the money thing it is definatly not good and the decision taken towards it was fair....

 

Althoough he and his good deals would be missed.

 

:(

 

but i am curious, wht happend to the moderator/s to whom the money was offered?did the mod take it?how much money was offered? and wht kind of noob offers money (tht too in dollars) for banning other member?

 

Dude, I didnt offer anything..sm1 told me just to talk to mod..so i did. I know it was my bad, but life ban? :(

 

 

 

PS. mods u can ban me now..i hv said my part...bt please do rethink over life time ban.

plz tell me u have paid it by now........

 

abt the deal. u promised to send the money very next day, but didnt do and didnt bother to tell me for 3 days, when i contacted u , u said tht u will give me gears and agreed on 700, but then sold it/kept it, then too i didnt say anything........changing u r mind once on agreed deal itself validates for a negative feedback u did it 2wice.........

 

about the other deal:

i asked u to hold the genesis speaker for me i will buy for certainand u said u will hold it, and the other day itself at 3.00 am u sms me tht u have sold the speakers......dosent this merit a -ve feedback?

 

i still maintain tht u r a good friend but i agree with others tht u are not very good at trading

Yeah guys i know Chaz did make a big mistake and he has been part of this community for a long time and one of the senior members i would like to request the admins to consider a ban for a limited period but life time ban is too harsh especially the guy nearly lived in this forums for so many years....

 

@Godspeed didnt chaz pay you for your game a week back and compensated the previous unfulfilled deal with him for free game?? you should be happy m8.

@blu man ....

 

hey man... u are still playing the i-am-the-nice-guy-i-am-a-senior-member-done 200+deals trump card yet again....

 

u use ur rep to overshadow the other fellow...

 

u clearly know that most guys here engage in TP ,they are not doing this as a business...maybe thats why for some a 6k is not a small thing..

 

u say ur 200+ deals again..and u see its not just 1 bad deeds..here itself 4 ones have came...

dont take it personally but u cannot pass comments on me just by hearing his side of story......he offered me free uno game as a part and parcel of the deal on gears........and he offered me another game with philips speaker when i told tht i cannot trade with him any longer coz of the current controversy.........

i feel sorry for him coz he was a good friend and he has been banned now
