    Code of Ethics

    Is it ridiculous to think that enough threads are started about, or tend to focus on the theme of scrappers etiquette and ethics that we might start a new section.. idk, maybe if enough people share this POV it could help organize some of these off topic discussions into a more focused forum section.

    input appreciated. thanks

    Scrap-it, when you read this post as a visitor, please note that you gotta take the good with the bad, and some of us are sad to see you go. i hope that your lack of patience and acceptance of others will not hinder your business progress. good luck to you.

    and to everyone else, my original post had little to do with his views, though i can see his frustration.

    so any input would still be appreciated. thanks

    scrap it: none of it is personal so dont take it as so. we are al big boys and girls here.

    people are not against you just new regulations and laws, most scrappers are independent people who want to remain so.

    Ethics to me means if it feels wrong don't do it!

    if you think about it the only laws or regulations necessary are knowledge, morality, and common sence. sadly all are lacking in todays world.
