Do we know exactly why the PM system has gone?
I've found threads with dozens of pages of childish drivel, but nothing actually saying who was the victim and who was the villain, presuming it's a swap that's gone bad.
IIRC, I put something on the thread saying 'beware' and was told he/she was a long time forumite and not to worry.
Like you say, they weren't the same person. Nightmare. -

Not quite. If you've put your email in a forum post, you're choosing to place it in the public domain. PMs offer the illusion of privacy.

Registered 17 years ago@captbirdseye I've got Zelda breath of wild or donkey Kong tropical freeze, both on switch. Straight swap for one of these?
One issue for zelda - part of the sleeve is torn, just the back left corner (my 2 year old niece at the time liked opening the cases, taking sleeves out and going crazy). Game still works of course. I can post a pic but donkey Kong is fine, though the sleeve is a bit crumpled.
That's what I was thinking, what if we regulars exchange our psn, then on there trade our phone numbers, WhatsApp rest of details?
psn is pacrifice -
