Transactions can go awry for many reasons. Perhaps Exotic really had money problems, and just managed his money poorly and handled the situation really badly.
Exotic is not being banned because of ahmiao's allegations. He is being banned for the series of actions he took after the allegations surfaced.
What really tick me off is the way Exotic tried to run away from the problems by trying to get his account 'canceled' and still had the gall to create a new account to continue to operate in AQ. Not only that, he went the extra mile to make sure people do not think that ast21 is him. When I ignored his 'cancelation' and ban requests, he resorted to juvenile behaviour, posting vulgar, demeaning messages in a lady's introduction thread.
That was the last straw. Before the vulgar messages, I was still prepared to see this through to a satisfactory resolution. I even gave the benefit of doubt that money problems was causing his irresponsible behaviour (I suspect some of the moderators think I'm too nice sometimes). Once those messages came out, the decision was easy.
Frankly, it's beyond my comprehension why he would go through so much trouble just to avoid paying $50 or returning the chiller. I can only think of suspicious circumstances. Is he going to change his handphone number too, so that Ahmiao cannot track him down? Why bother to register a new account? So he can continue to conduct shady deals?
