Sounds like no change, what a joke! I used to love Ingo for years and it's just not the same anymore and hasn't been for a good while, since Fenway sold it honestly or maybe even a little before. I check in every once in awhile and post something once a year probably, once too much it seems. Oh and

Their classifieds rules are the king of retarded, created by pompous retards, enforced by morons that are compensating for things... Haha, good riddance to them. I left willingly years ago...
See this thread for more fun! ETA, and I was an original "old guy" there, I joined up around 08?!? when there weren't even 1,000 members yet. |

I used to buy and sell there frequently.
I kind of got bored of that site after I came here. It was just kind of stale and boring. I haven't tried to login in a long time. I'm not even sure if my account is still active there. I do remember a lot of the mods there being very odd. |

That doesn't surprise me from that prick church mouse. I've had a run-in with him on a sale ad about 4 years ago. My picture in the ad was not loading because Photobucket had taking a dump. I ended up getting a warning for deleting the picture. Long story short after going round and round with King pompous ass church mouse he finally removed the warning after realizing that he was the idiot but didn't even say he was sorry for the mistake.
He is an arrogant, egotistical, self-righteous, power-hungry piece of shit. He is everything that is wrong with Ingo. |

It's hypocrisy to the fullest with that guy.
If you're one of his nut huggers you get away with every rule he tries to cram down everyone else's throat. His moderating is fueled by his ego and is as consistent as his attitude, which means he's more hormonal than a 8 month pregnant woman. |

I won't mention names, but one of the guys that polices the classifieds gets his jollys off giving people infractions (or whatever they're called) for even the most minor things. Did you know that if you want to trade primers or reloading powder it has to go in the Firearms Parts for trade section? Seems retarded to call reloading powder a firearms part, he defended his position that powder is most definitely a firearms part very staunchly in his IM.  You would think a move with a IM that says, "Hey, I know the rules aren't very clear and there isn't a proper place for this, but this should be in a WTT section." would be a little more appropriate than an infraction. But whatever...power tripping people are going to do what power tripping people do. |

Because that's what is actually important to them, not the "quality" posts. |

You can "K" me all you want, but you can't deny that INGO classifieds are run better than the classifieds here.
Make a deal there, go pick it it up local or semi-local. Here, send hundreds to someone you don't know, maybe across the country, and hope you ain't been scammed. I'll take the deal where I can look 'em in the eye, look at the item, and shake hands and exchange money for goods. I'm patient, though. I can wait for the right deal to come along local. Seems to me that some people here just want to jump on anything without thinking about it. |

I opened an account there when it first came out but it didn’t really float my boat. The email address I used then has long since been closed and I opened a new one up a few years back. That board even though it’s a hometown board so to speak just isn’t one I spend a lot of time on. Arfcom has a good vibe if you stay out of GD, there has been a lot of mouth breathers and purple hair types join in the last 7-10 years, I guess that’s a reflection of our society. There is way more information here in the tech forums and the EE is ginormous, I’ve only been burned once in my 20+ years of being here. I visit Ingo 2-3 times a week but I rarely post there just not a lot going on over there for me.

Sorry to hear it but the reality is that everyone over there is just rolling on thinking they are a good person so certainly the dictator won't send them to the gallows. But dictators have a way of doing whatever pleases them. The classifieds rules on INGO are just absolutely absurd. They say they've made their rules to be like many other forums but I'm a member of many other forums and have never seen rules so wacky. |

I've browsed INGO, but I don't think I have an account there. Don't recall. Nothing personal either way.
"According to the law, as long as you have no reason to suspect a person is a prohibited person when selling them a firearm, you are fine." IMO "fine" is a relative term. The idea of having Law Enforcement show up for a chat because oops the person you did a Face to Face with was prohibited - whether they used the firearm in a violent crime or not - is very much not fine from my point of view. I have done very few FTF transactions, and the older I get the less I appreciate those loose ends being out there. I know there are some of you who are fine with FTF, but I've personally gotten to the point where it isn't worth any potential liability. Listen to a Police Scanner for a while and you may be surprised how many people are using Indiana (or anywhere for that matter) as a stepping stone to be just outside extradition range for crimes they committed elsewhere. Violent crimes - with extradition ranges as "in state only" or "within 100 miles" - which will not show up on mycase because they didn't happen here. Also there is a zero percent chance I'd take that sort of legal advice at face value from anyone, even if they are a forum owner/moderator/whatever. That statement is, at best, fairly irresponsible. |
