what do you think of turboing? do you see it as unethical like scamming or do you see it as its a fair risk you have to take when swapping.

I see it as a fair risk, smart people wait a while after purchasing before swapping.

Some dumbasses swap within the first day...

It's annoying but it happens. I just try to avoid swapping things.

'Like why the fuck would you swap somethin as soon as you purchased it?

I think you shouldn't bitch if you get turboed. You put your tag up for anyone to use. Don't complain.

I don't agree with it at all. If you pay/trade for a name, you should be able to swap without having to worry.

IMO its all fair game if you want to keep your username you will wait a while and then swap to be safe.

If you lose it's your own fault. It's a fucking virtual name that means nothing in the first place.

It is against the ToU for most of the things that are being sold anyway. So technically your not allowed to sell or buy it. Therefore turboing is nothing but the username was open and the person claimed it before you. Not anyones fault but yours.

I agree. But the fine print states it is against the rules to turbo on-site SM's or gamertags.

I don't really see the point...like if it's just a virtual name then why bother stealing it out of someone and ruining their fun and throwing their money away. It's fine if the person who had it was a faggot/scammer/arabian/turboer though.
