I have seen supermarkets and bodegas with a wall of shame. A wall full of the shoplifters ' picture in action. Why can't online stores have something similar (in the US, not sure about Europe and their laws). It would be a great way to protect future victims.
Better QC is what would better protect future victims, and avoid such things ending up in the shop.
Unlike an online store, where one can expect hit and runs, and the wall of shame is often also to try and find/catch the shoplifters and get them to take responsibility, in this case the shoplifter has been caught already, and there is no need to crucify him in such manner. The name is forever stained with or without such wall of shame, imo.
1. We are the victims. Props are the victims.
How come we should give our precious commodity (trust) at the same rate and level as other contributors, to him? There is no need to name names but a few people here got our respect because of years and years of perfect trust score. We may not agree on many things beyond our love for Reason, but if these people were surgeons I would gladly be going under their knife, No problem.
Would you be glad to have Dr. SoftPhonics in charge of your surgery, knowing what you know now? The answer is NO.
2.Stockholm's Syndrome.
Why are we here? This thread exists because of somebody's sickness being a fraud: that human being could not stop himself. He was CAUGHT, just like a shoplifter. Being a victim of a fraud does not stop because the fraudster was caught. We don't need to like somebody who broke our trust. He is not a puppy with a broken leg in a Disney movie. We, the human being victims, should not care if the fraudster is reading this thread or not. I know children with autism. None of them tried to rip me off.
Do you think Dr. Softphonics would have stopped himself from being a fraudster? The answer is NO.
3. Forgiveness.
We built and rebuilt societies with forgiveness. If there is a sign of a first step from the fraudster toward that direction, this should be welcomed. It would be great for him to move on. Until that first step, we will be victims forever.
