A friend on mine was scanning a few cards into a vintage set of basketball cards onto TCDB a while back on here when he got a message from another guy. It was basically along the lines of hey, this is my set, why are you cutting in on my turf? This other guy had scanned quite a few cards into this set, I guess he was offended.

Has this ever happened to anyone? Further does anyone think that this guy that sent this message was maybe a little childish? Do you get a special icon next to your name in the membership list if you scan all of the cards in a set? Just trying to find this guys logic behind his message.

I have a few theories:

• Maybe he had been working diligently on the set for weeks and had it all planned out and in came your friend and messed up what he had going on.

• Maybe he's one of these guys that sees a girl at a bar, decides that's his girl, and no one else can talk to her.

• Maybe he was just having a bad day.

• Maybe he's one of these guys that doesn't let cars come over into his lane in traffic because that's "his lane".

• Maybe he was an only child and has a deep-seeded anxiety with sharing that haunts him into adulthood.

It's definitely one of those options.

 

I think MAS might be the guy?! Lol

Ignore. No one "owns" a set on here. if yo uare doing things correctly then no issues. If it persists, block the member. My gut feeling, MAS' #1 is a start point.

Why is everyone talking about a forum post from 10 years ago?

Maybe inspired by the recent legal wranglings with the New USFL over trademark expirations

Didn't even notice.... 2012, 2022 same thing right?

This is funny. Honestly I understand tho. I had a set of cards all scanned and was starting to crop them when someone came in and uploaded all the scans. Kinda sucked because I had done some work but it was also only a 25 card set so more power to them.

D)  All of the above!

Bigger question is... how's that set's image entry going?
