BL Dark Star November?

Lmao I think this guy, sinhoptra, and that L1 whatever his name is are all the same person.

 

You can call it lazy, but it's about how greedy and selfish you are being. Limits are created so that more people who'd like to enjoy that beer can experience it. If you took your allocation and traded 1-2 away for something you wanted elsewhere, hardly anyone would have a problem with it. When you take 3 extra allocations away from 3 people who would've enjoyed it so that you can send it away, that is greedy and selfish. You are more likely to find generous people like @SammyJaxxxx on this site who are willing to help others out and share than you would people who are trying to overload on a beer to fit their own selfish desires and answer your original question from your first post.
I'm stuck on an island but I think part of the experience of enjoying new beers is traveling and attending those festivals that you speak of skipping. I've been to the mainland several times and visited breweries like Fremont, Great Notion, and de Garde, and I enjoy it more having the memory of drinking their tasty beers in their taprooms vs getting a box of beers in the mail from a stranger.

 

Good luck with.the Yeezy release tomorrow!!!!!

 

... You continue to display why you are exactly what is wrong with craft beer now. Trust me, nobody is jealous of you! If anything people feel sad for you and your 'superior' thought process. Just stop while you're behind.

 

Everyone just needs to do their own thing. Let him do him and everyone do their own thing. No one is going to change anyone’s mind. What this guy does with his beer is no one’s business. It’s his beer and he can do whatever he wants. He’s not right or wrong in his choice, it’s what he believes in and he has that right to do what he wants. If you don’t like what he does, then just ignore him. Honestly, if he wants to try whales and this is his way of doing it then let him do it. Just don’t trade with him if you don’t like his ways. It’s just beer and hopefully it doesn’t affect many of you guys that you’ll be able to wake up and live another day.

 

Of course he's free to do what he wants, and I'm free to think that what he's doing is what's ruining this hobby. Trust me, he's definitely on my Do-Not-Trade list already and will be on the 'Ignore' list shortly (wonderful feature of this website).

Just as an FYI, if a brewery indented for people to buy 20 bottles, they would have set that allotment. They wouldn't have set it at 3.

 

No one is preventing him from being douche. We are simply calling out his behavior for what it is.
I disagree with your statement "He’s not right or wrong in his choice" There is right or wrong in most choices we make. Pretty much everyone but the OP agrees that bringing mules to a release so that you can circumvent bottle limits and trade the beer for three times its value is wrong.

 

I get your what you’re saying but it’s kind of like what I stated. You or nobody else is going to change his thinking...it’s just going back and forth. It’s not just this thread but I’ve seen it other threads lately as well where these type of back and forth banters are going. I think it’s just a waste of time on anyone’s part and if anything if you’re annoyed with his ways...the back and forth just fuels his fire to keep going.

 

Any old timers remember the user name "Bad_trader"? They were an awesome troll account until they got banned. This user reminds me of them.

 

Ok so if you think he’s wrong what are you going to do? You gonna call the cops? You gonna call every brewery he mules at? You gonna get the admins to ban him from the site? He’s set in his ways so what’s the point of going back and forth? He’s not wrong. You just think he’s wrong. There’s far worse out there than what he’s doing. There’s no right or wrong in this. He thinks he’s right and you think he’s wrong...so at the end of the day it’s just an opinion.

 

Dude you are obviously trolling at this point, so I am going to ignore you after this.

Fact: You keep saying you are spreading the beer around, while also saying you are doing bulk trades like 8:1 for bigger bottles. Sending someone 8 bottles isn't spreading anything.

Fact: You said your trades are mostly $4$, while you also said you bought PCC solely becasue you could trade it for 3 times it's price. Maybe you don't know what $4$ is?

Fact: Whenever I get a few extra bottles of something nice, I typically send it to other generous people that I have interacted with on BA. Whether this is BIF's or Ninja's or just pick up's. These very generous people also send me nice stuff from time to time, or are willing to pick-up cool releases for me. Your way is not new or better. It's just annoying.

The main reason most people think you suck is that it is clear you are someone really trying to "win" at craft beer. Whether its allotments or trades or whatever. That I have to "win" mentality is what is ruining this hobby.

 

dont get as much, very low trading value

 

I used to think like this. But after spending some time sending monthly boxes to CA I realized I could be trying even more beer with the extra $50 it was costing me to ship. Not to say I haven't set up some very good trading partners this way, but shipping gets expensive. I guess if you're just Mr. Money Bags it wouldn't matter too much.....

 

The above nugget is gold but as others have mentioned, you are clearly trolling.

Have you thought about how the brewery is using you in this respect? You are 'helping' the brewery by 'overly' distributing their beer but you are paying for packaging, shipping and your time out of your own pocket and see no type of reimbursement from the brewery for all the help you are giving them. You are essentially volunteering your services to the brewery. Wake up and ask them for compensation already unless you enjoy being used.
