Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)

They only want this photocopy from US customers. I once read that was because they had problems with US customers doing reverse charges much too early, causing them too loose money. I think there was a time when they did not accept CC payment from the US alltogether.

Though I wondern how a photocopy would help with a reverse charge... but then again, that's just what I heard. Only fact is, for european orders, no photocopies are required.




US Customers are notorious in the OP world for bring reverse scammers. Sometimes it's accidental, i.e. "Waaaah, my order didn't get here in 9 days, I'm reversing charges," and sometimes it's just plain mailcious. But ignorance of the. . .(facts) does not excuse.

That's why P24 made it very uncomfortable for new or relatively unknown US customers to start/continue using credit cards. It's probably the same reason that most IOPs weren't accepting CC's long before Visa/Mastercard accepted the anti-illegal activity clause.
