    Hmm.. I've never dealt with any Romanian webmasters.. (since I build my own sites lol). But as an impression, I see them as.. any other webdesigner (such as american ones), but not as Indian webmasters (who offer services, for less, outsource, etc. *just* a generalisation)

    I'v had a few guys that offer services for less. Romania outsources quite a bit too.

    I think Romania's "reputation" is probably worth exploiting. I always imagine Romanian programmers to be a clever and crafty bunch :D

    I haven't dealt with anyone from Romania yet. But I think we should not judge them all. I bet there are still honest people from that place.

    I am a Romanian and I don't think we should all be seen as scammers. For 2-3 people who did this you cannot brand an entire country. Scams happen in all countries and I am sure you can find such people in all bigger countries, not Romania only.

    I am a web designer and have done this for the last 5 years. I have a good portfolio and kinda shown some of my skills in various forms: forum layout creation (I have 1 forum that was elected as phpBB of the Year 2006, on phpbbhacks, I have created many layouts for sites, forums, directories, shopping carts and so on). I had clients from Romania and abroad and I don't think anyone can complain :D I am also a member in most big webmaster sites and since I used the same nick, you can see me in action.

    I dislike scammers as much as you do and I would kick them if I knew them personally. :D

    I don't care where the people i work with are from. Most of the time i don't know where they are living and i don't ask, too. So i don't judge romanians, germans, papuan or whatever.
