Because it happens all the time. We as a SoCal community are tight nit we like to take care of each out (that are good people), but a lot of use have been burned b4. We will give something away for free then a week or so late we will see it on here or Craigslist up for sale.
How would u feel if u put a dresser out in front on your driveway with a free sign and your neighbor took it. Then next week he had it in front of his driveway with a for sale sign asking $100. He hadn't done crap to it either just held it for a week then put it up for sale. No imagine it happening to u constantly. Wouldn't u stop giving free stuff to people u didn't know. That's why we like to get to know people b4 giving them free stuff.
So if your offended on how we want to make sure your a good person then u can buy your corals from a pet shop like we all have.
But if u want to introduce your self and show us that your a good reefer and not a flipper then cruise out to yucaipa and I'll hook u up

Nice to hear that. But maybe u should go over to the new members section and introduce your self and maybe post a few pics in the ID section and we can help u out with names too.
Here one word of advice.

You shouldn't own a saltwater aquarium if you don't own any test kits.

Test kits will help u figure out what's going on in the water. It's funny how a $10 test kit will save u from loosing 100 to 1000 of dollars in fish and corals, but some people r to cheep to by them. Then post questions like "why are all my things dying help". When I see this my first thought is "cause your a cheep idiot".

I won't be pissed seeing him listing it for $100. What if he cannot sell it (free tastes like free)? What if he sells it and turn around and split the $100 with me? We often seems to jump on newbies too hard.......Give the guy a chance yeah?

Wait wait wait. Did u see me jumping on the guy/gal! There was a few other post where people were kinda bashing. I offered an explanation to said person why the people were dawgin. So don't single me out like I'm the d***.
Just cause I got the b***s to say what other are to afraid to.
I offered the explanation to said person so they wouldn't get discouraged here b4 the members giving said person a chance.

Very clear and well said. Being straight forward is always good to do business or have a good friendship. It might sound mean to new people or some people, but eventually they will get it.
[MENTION=10843]Thanhluu[/MENTION]: you can make a thread to introduce yourself and your tank. Post some pics, so we can know what you have and what you need some assistance on. This hobby is a learning experience hobby for everyone. Newbie or expert, there are always things for us to learn everyday.

OK, I am staying corrected. You did not jump on him; I just quote you on the dresser but then went on to the other statement without thinking first. Sorry I should have quoted Dylan also :)

i probably shouldn't have said anything because it's not worth my time but I go out of my way to hook people up and help and this one time when I was giving away some free equipment, I added in a few frags because I wanted to do something cool for this person and the next week I went to his house for a trade and come to find out he had two tanks nicer than my one, stocked to the brim with bad *** coral. Not even an offer of a frag in return lol so sorry for being so quick to say something. Don't get me wrong though, I didn't let one experience soil my entire outlook, it just made me a little more cautious.

Haha Dylan, I totally understand where you are coming from. Sorry for putting you on the spot.
