That one individual did take the action though, when specifically asked not to. Whether there are many groups or not, this person actively undermined something that was put together for this community. "Everyone's doing it" doesn't make it OK.
Get a grip, this is a public forum. I don't work for OcUK, however we've managed to help 100s and prob 1000s get CPUs, GPUs and consoles now the last 4-5 months.
Mostly genuine people I'm sure, don't doubt a bunch of scalpers lurk on the Discord who got them too. But any we find out we boot out. We've even had users from OcUK help us get orders cancelled contacting OcUK and the other popular retailer. But this forum is just the same, it's not locked down so there are 100s/1000s of less-good willed people / scalpers who will benefit from these alerts.
No, they've just helped their members get a GPU over others.
Wtf?
You know a lot of our "members" (who don't pay anything btw?) are from OcUK btw...
Geez, who'd have thought people be toxic towards a free service and some people spending their time to help others.
Anyway nuff said I'm done with this thread. Clearly I'm not 'loyal' enough, only been here 13+ years... some people's heads are too high up in the clouds.
