@d21lewis_ You know best how you resonated. But my guess would be that you wanted an Xbox for a cheap price and thought that the odds of being scammed was very low. You didn't know for sure that you would get it, but you did expect profit. |
I didn't buy it from a stranger. I bought it FOR a stranger. Some random dude said his Xbox was broken so I bought him one. I'm not a rich person and I could have saved the money to buy a 3DS XL or something. My girlfriend quit her job a little earlier and my daughter has doctor's appointments almost weekly. I could have put the money towards something of that nature. The guy didn't ask for an Xbox. I'd never met/spoken to him before and hadn't spoken to him since. In fact, it was just a random user on this site. I don't know anything about the guy. No age, political preference, race, favorite color, or anything. I'm not the kind of person that give 50 cent a day to starving kids in Africa, either. I wasn't "high on smack" or anything. His story wasn't heartwarming or heartbreaking.
I didn't expect any profit of any kind. I didn't profit in any way, shape, or form. I don't have any regret for my action. It was just a totally random act of kindness for a totally random person in a totally random thread. I'm not prone to these kinds of actions. Being scammed didn't even cross my mind. Were it not for this thread, I'd never have mentioned the incident ever again. Personal glory was no motive. I've barely given that moment a second thought since it happened. I wasn't held at gunpoint or coerced in any way whatsoever. I'd seen threads like that before and never felt like doing such a thing. I may never do such a thing again.....but then again, maybe I will. It depends on my "Free Will". This entire incident took place before this thread so it wasn't in a reaction to anything and it wasn't to prove a point.
Explain or tell me that I just invalidated your entire thread. Free will IS free.
