[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2609998, member: 36230"]Doesn't matter - the Carr sees and knows all, even when he doesn't. As is evidenced by this (and every other thread) his word is [I]law[/I], or at least many accept it as such. It is, of course, nothing but an utterly ridiculous self-serving claim, no less ludicrous than saying no American would ever pay more for any European coin than its most "[I]common[/I]" and "[I]ordinary[/I]" cousin. If anything should be clear to all is that no matter how reasonable one's concern or issue may be, it don't matter, not because of fact or reality, but because the Carr and his products deserve unquestioned special treatment that absolutely no one else, under [I][U]any[/U][/I] circumstance, does. Case in point: "[I]If, at some point in the future somebody pulls off a scam using some coin, how about we blame the person actually perpetrating that fraud[/I]?" Posted earlier in this thread by Mr. Carr, and in itself a perfectly logical and reasonable statement - of course the individual perpetrating the fraud should receive the lion's share of the blame - but when someone knowingly and intentionally gives them the tools to do so, said individual cannot rightfully or morally wash their hands of it and pretend to be blameless. Just imagine the reaction if, say, an Asian "[I]fantasy[/I]" producer came here and posted the above. This forum, with the fanhood leading the way, would erupt with outrage and disgust, ready and willing to hang them from the nearest tree. Double standard? Indeed...[/QUOTE]
