    I did everything I could to work with SSM, but after months of waiting and receiving a kit that was in such poor shape as they sent, I've had it with them. I doubt they can get their act together. If they were, they would have stepped up to the plate and resolved R&D issues before pawning their multiple versions off to customers like they seem to be doing. They have been very deceptive in their emails about everything with the order I placed with them from the items I would receive, to pictures, to ship dates, and so on. When a company can not respond to emails, PM's, telephone calls, or written correspondence then that is an issue. When trouble is on the horizon people tend to not communicate, which seems to be the case with SSM.

Sorry, but it seems to me that people are trying to lay blame in the wrong direction. In fact, I haven't seen SSM lay any blame at Warren's feet. And I haven't heard about SSM turbos blowing up, which was Warren's MO.


    Also if I remember correctly, I can go back and find the posts/threads, several members came to the defense of Jesse (the owner of SSM).
    April, please dont be like that. I'm NOT blaming the mods for the SSM situation. What I think was poorly done was the fact that NONE of the forum admin from here or 3si let members know about warren's employment there in a big way. Had warren been a nobody, or made the odd mistake here and there, then I'm pretty sure nobody would care. But he had SCAMMED alot of members out of their money. It was your fucking DUTY to pass that info on to everyone IN A BIG WAY. How? Shit that wouldn't be hard, start a thread. Now I know you can't do that because members wouldn't buy from SSM knowing he's there and that affects your sites money intake. So it's a conflict of interest dont you think? I know mods are in a tough spot because you dont get paid, get treated like nothing at times, but that's the job right? Looking out for the members of your forum. Maybe our business ethics are different.

    Gzp has nothing to do with this. I made a big thread about warren involvement, everyone chose to ignore it.
    Circa 2005... Oh my, how far I've come
