    THE FACT THAT THE ADMIN HERE WOULD JUST MAKE THIS UP OUT OF NOWHERE IS UNREAL.

    **I AM SURE GUYS CAN VOUCH FOR ME 100%.**


    ADMIN....YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE MAKING CRAP UP.

    It was one of your members that pm'd the info to me stating that you work for the feds! so maybe you need to get your members on a leash and tell them not to come here pming members and admin about your board... looks like you must have an enemy in your camp!

    Most of the time no one approves a member they just do as they please and when caught nothing is said or done... leaving the boards such as this to assume the owner knew all along... Please inform your members I have banned their accounts here for stating that you are a fed and the other for pming our members to come to your board without permission.... as for if you are a fed or not I do not know nor do I care I only care my members stay safe... so I let them know what was stated..

    BTW yes there was more than one account involved in this... and my members (2) forwarded thier pm to me asking if it had been approved...

    So you just repeat info with no proof? If I a pm stating anything outlandish you just post it, no proof just post the info.

    I'll pm something about AR and se if you just post it up to make people aware without checking facts. Why don't you post up the members name with a complete copy of his post. If you took time too look at the people associated with and behind the board you would have known it was BS. An admin truly concerned about the community would get the fact and alert members of our board who own boards and have for many years to help protect the community as a whole rather than post BS because they are afraid some members may sign up elsewhere.

    Totally reckless and careless

    Yes sir... If it means my members are safer I do... I can look into it later but in the meantime a warning is best to be safe... however the person is a member at his board and a close friend from all appearance's so why would I have doubted that person at all... what they sent was pretty spot on with most info... note I said with most..

    New members to the rescue! lol
    Someone got busted, the coward rolled, and is trying to take others down with him. Admin is awesome enough to have the interest of 10,000+ members on his mind, and warns us of possible danger, and now we are going to get a bunch of "new members" arguing with Admin's warning to the members. Sounds like the FEDS did bust someone, sounds like that someone is screwing people over, sounds like Admin's warnings are legit, and it sounds like the FEDs and their puppets are now worried that their plan might not work, and are trying to desperately convince the members that their trap is in fact a safe place.

    That ain't the point. It's not about having proof. It's about protecting the people on THIS board. So even if it's heresay based on PM's, he did the right thing notifying this board that:

    1. There was a possible investigation at another site.

    2. PM's were inviting others to that site.

    I think most people here appreciate Admin looking out for us, and not worrying about whether or not something was proven to the satisfaction of someone like yourself.

    If I find hard proof I will let you know... as stated above this is and was a warning of a report that was sent to me from someone who is on their (your) board who also is a member here... I am correct that you are also admin on that board

    Marcus I used to Mod for RR and talk to him regularly, guess I was a fed back then when you were at the board all the time. I'd bet money where this came from but I won't be irresponsibe and post it publicly.

    Not to worry about me as I have been on alert ever since I found out that Sarah Palin was wanting to run for President in 2012.
    But seriously, yeah whether true or not we all need to be sharp about these things and really start watching what we say, when we say it and how we say it on these boards. Sad but true. I hate to make it political but...since the Republicans are coming back in power they have a point to make and since they never could or would control the flow of illegal drugs into our country from the mexican borders, its easier to attack their otherwise law abiding citizens for sensationalism.

    This is a new level of low. If your issue is with me then leave it at that. There is no need to make libelous claims. That is the same shit anthony roberts pulled about this place. saying brian clapp was under investigation, then you turn around and do the same about another board?

    Im willing to bet if someone PMd you and said there were feds on this board you would not make a post "warning" all your members to keep them safe. get real.

    and marcus i agree there are some two faced people on this board. that is for damn sure. its funny tho how admin turns a blind eye when the staff is the one breaking the rules.

    To protect the members of this board is not low at all… Issues with you ha do not flatter yourself… Not one libelous claim was made here… A warning much like I feel sure your admin would make if he was given the same info about a board just to keep his members safe… I did not call names I did not point a finger at any one person… I stated that it was reported to me which it was… this thread would have been dead and gone by now if people such as yourself would not have kept it alive…

    As for making a post to our members about this same thing you are incorrect once again… we have made many posts as well as have rules in place which state that we do not allow certain things here because we know feds are on all boards and can read what is written… that is why we have the rules in place something of which you do not understand and is why you have been banned here a number of times and will be again and again I feel sure… since you cannot seem to stay away from a board you loath so much haha…

    I have not seen my present staff doing anything against the rules… but if I do they will be treated as any other member here. It has happened to past staff and will with present staff as well… I have the utmost respect for my staff... and appreciate each of them and the time they spend here... as well as the members who do appreciate that we are watching out for them

    Thanks for the warning Admin.

    I've previously recieved invited to other forums but I ignore them all.

    Guys, just watch what you say here. This is not a source board. It is a board dedicated to safety and information. As long as you make intelligent posts, with safety in consideration, you will be fine. The Federal Agents, or whatever they call themselves, can read your posts and have nothing on you....provided your safety is taken into consideration.

    Thanks again

    Admin made a statement pertaining the safety of our members and that is it, if you dont like it or have something to say, dont bother, the statement will not be retracted and nor should it be...

    Thanks for the warning Admin. True or not it's best to get the info out there. Better safe than sorry. It wouldn't be the first time feds set up a board as a sting. I know of 1 for sure, and possibly 2 boards, not BB/AAS related that they did this with.

    You're joking right? I don't even believe for 2 seconds that you're an administrator. Because if you were, you would have known with your first post
    that the admin here can't prove whether or not they are actually feds at the other board.
    Him waiting for 'facts', would have resulted in the entire forum not being notified, and the potential of members going to a forum that was operated by LE just like you.

    You are NOT THE ADMIN HERE. You are not entitled to know anymore than the rest of the board does. Not to mention if you DID read the pms, its not going to change
    a single g/damn thing.
    Everyone in this thread is obviously GREATFUL that the admin did exactly what he did, yet you're here claiming to be an admin yourself. THAT to me sounds extremely shady.
    You should at least have the common sense as an administrator to know that 99% of the forum would prefer to know something like this regardless of whether or not it was
    a cold hard fact, cause like I said, EITHER WAY YOU CAN'T PROVE IT. So YES, I want to know and so does everyone else.

    And why are you the ONLY person in this entire thread giving him a hard time? Were you banned or something and now you're just pretending to be an admin somewhere else
    but you're actually a cop? Maybe the pm was really about you and thats why your angry? I can't understand for what other reasons it would be.
    The admin is doing a great job, a much better job than you obviously would have done (cause half of your imaginary forum would be in jail by now) so please leave him alone and gafl.

    And if you want admin to give you those pms how about you start by telling us what site you're an admin at? ... doing your "day to day operations" and what not?... like setting people up. Something is seriously fishy about your posts because you do NOT sound like any kind of person in authority. The same way you can't prove to a single person here that you are what you say you are, admin can't prove that feds DON'T work at the other forum. If you were who you said you were, you would have already known that.

    I understand admin giving a warning and appreciate that but for anyone who is not involved in both boards or staff here your opinion is biased. Very few of you have probably even visited that board or know the whole story about the pm's and what was said. I'm not going to get involved in all this useless drama but just wanted to put that out there.
