I'm confused. What did I miss with regards to friends over righteousness?
If it's that a vendor calls out another vendor that is doing wrong to the community, bravo! At the least I would expect that from anyone no matter the motive...

At this rate when there finally is a more affordable alternative for certain parts in this community, they're going to be boned.
Coop, it's meant for more than just this thread...it happens all to often and can be one of the reasons such a issue even exists.
As to vendors speaking on other vendors; because it can be bad, I think it should be very limited and definately not allow for one vendor to make accusations about another without proof first. Remember, at the end of the day, some businesses will do what needs to be done to continue; regardless of what you or I or any vendor may say or even prove (good or bad.)
What i posted, was proof. My assumptions have ALWAYS been right in regards to individuals tying to hide their identities, and who they actually were.
LOL, STFU.
When one vendor chooses to employ a person who has ripped off members, as well as other vendors, they should automatically expect to be highly scrutinized.
Also SSM seems to owe probably a five figured amount of products and refunds, and conveniently they have disappeared.
Also Emilie may have made an "assumption", but why wouldn't an employee of SSM post on behalf of SSM? It was no secret that Warren worked there, so...
What difference does it make if a member of this forum is or works for a vendor...? Does it somehow change their ability to have or express opinions and thoughts? At the end of the day, they know damn well that what they say reflects on the business they represent.(good or bad) Let that be their call... If you don't like what Emilie has to say, feel free to disagree with her, feel free to not like her, feel free to never do business with her, but don't suggest censorship...
Matt Monett was all over LMI like white on rice from the start.... I don't see anyone bitching him out for being unfair. (If anyone decides to do so, let us know ahead of time, I want to make popcorn...)
I feel bad I recommend someone to SSM when they first started up because it seemed like a good business and they're out a good sum of money now. I almost had them fab me up a T3 FMIC kit but I'm glad I didn't. People need to legally go after them. I definitely would at least have my lawyer write a letter first then take them to court.

Not defending SSM, just bashing GZP. I think it is lame for any business to get involved in this type of thing. If you're truely concerned, comp everyone on SSM's behalf.
What's going on with SSM? Still in business. Just not on this site. I'm headed down 9/23ish to race a car they just built for pinks. Wish me luck.

You guys have made my points far better than I could have hoped. Thank you, and kick rocks already. You stand to gain thru your CXR relationship, so this good cop, bad cop act is cute.
