always existed, the guy who scientifically mapped it out named it theprisoners dilema

It's interesting how trust is an ingredient in the worst possible outcomes.

To achieve the nash equilibrium outcome you would send the lady a phony license plate and when/if she gives you the title to send the real one, that way you could never lose.

Glad to hear he didn't charge you for the advice. Hopefully the rest of the lawyers you deal with are that kind.

prisoner's delimma never made sense to me because it's an incomplete scoring. There's no gain to proving you can keep your mouth shut and no penalty for talking.

Reminds me a lot of this:


You know Fana, since when I was a lurker I remember you having a reputation as some kind of nutcase, but from what I've seen since I started posting you do actually contribute some pretty decent info some of the time. I just want you to know that even when we strongly disagree, you're not as bad as I was led to believe.

What I'm trying to understand is why you couldn't put 5-9k max down and traded in your POS car and financed a new one ? I must have missed it but do you have horrible credit or something or is it the state your in ? 10 grand is more than enough, lesson here is always listen to your gut instinct and never proceed with a business transaction with that many red flags or without a bill of sale.

I'm sorry you're going though this !

READ THE FUCKING THREAD! Fuck's sake...

What I don't get is that it seems that they don't want to give you the bill of sale/title simply out of spite or some irrational fear that you'll never return the plates?

My immediate thought, and what I still think, is they are fucking idiots who think Onoes is trying to scam them=P

I do think it's funny that I lurked on FoH for.. 8 or 9 years, something insane, and it wasn't until the move I went "I'm going to try and contribute, why the hell not", yet never did I think at some point I would genuinely like Tuco.

He's been downright pleasant this last year. + Reps.

On a total side note, I got some good news in an e-mail today, and you would all be proud to note that my first thought was "Wait, is this a scam? Seems legit, but probably someone trying to fuck me."

Well the first rule is that I'm not supposed to talk about it... But lets just say I'm WILD about STARting this new hobby, and it should really help relive my STRESS, and take my mind off this TESTing situation.

I know, smooth right?

Why are you "forgetting" where you parked the car? A lawyer actually told you to abandon the "stolen" vehicle? If this goes to court he thinks its a good idea to tell the judge "I done plain forgot where the car is"?

Whats the latest from TitleMax? If the lien is paid off, why do they still have the title?

I really dont think these people are scamming you. Leave it to me to find the good in stupid people, but I think they jsut want their plates and dont really understand the situation. If they were screwing you they would already have the title.

They are probably just typical idiot kids raised in the 90s that expect everyone to fix this for them.

"OK LIEN IS PAID OFF, Title max you sort out this title with the guy".

TLDR version - These people are stupid and I dont think its a scam, just really stupid.

Yeah, that's why this is happening. No need to post anymore in this thread. All is solved. People were just raised in the 90s.

Alright, so like I said yesterday I bought a used car. Today I transferred the title, got it registered, got it insured, threw my plates on, tossed the registration into the glove box, and am good to go.

Bam!

Youre doing it wrong bro, youre supposed to keep something of his (license plates seem to work best) so he keeps the title and you just stash the car and never drive it. l2buycar.
