[maddude16]

i dont know what is going on at present but ive chosen to leave the forum - im now being accused of something i do not know about.

i just want to thank you all.

[Musicman69]

Thats a shame.
I thought you were doing a good job for your late friend and you seem like a nice guy.
Seems to be some issues so Ill have to see how it pans out before I make a donation,
hope it resolves ok.

Maddude there are some quite serious inconsistencies with your story which Hamster is still waiting for an explanation on. We're not being unreasonable, all you have to do give Hamster a simple answer. What's the problem? There's no bullying going on and you don't need to get hostile with Hamster and run away.

If you're going to ask for money from members you should expect to have inconsistencies questioned, particularly when you didn't ask for permission before posting your request.

whats going on here????

"we'll have no shouting here....... (mb1 style)"

seriously, though, whats the problem/story?

I was thinking of a BC donation.....now...? errr.....?

[TRadford]

Same here, I was quite willing to make a substantial (in terms of the current climate and what its going towards), but Im not going to if there are things happening behind the scenes that we know nothing about, and certainly not if Maddude is leaving the forum. Im not made of money and only give it out in exceptional circumstances for charity type things. I dont want to think my money isnt going where I belived it was.

WTF?

[skankdelvar]

Great Caesar's Ghost! The plot thickens.

[neepheid]

Maybe we need an outroductions forum...

I to would like to know what is going on. I spoke to maddude16 last night with regards to what happened to Jimmy and everything seemed above board. I also made a donation which has now been refunded. It would be nice to know what is going on?

[Marvin]

It does seem all rather strange. I had considered making a donation.

I have given maddude16 24 hours to answer my simple questions and to provide evidence to refute some serious allegations I have made to him.

If I don't hear from him by 10am tomorrow then I will make a statement (but I will be at work then so it might not be until the evening)

I hope this doesn't turn out to be one sick, sick attempt at pulling a scam. I think it's in the best interest for the mods to reveal theaccusations before more are cast

I kind of agree with this, as Im starting to think up all sorts of things, but I trust the Admin and Mods to make the right choices and take the approiate action.

[Pete Academy]

I've just re-read maddude's post. I may be wrong, but something doesn't quite sound right.

[Kev]

Il change my post slightly, i think we shouldn't cast any more aspirations until the mods make their statement tomorrow.

[Pete Academy]

And neither did Jimmy Preston's original post.

[waynepunkdude]

This is f***ing weird, I hope it is a scam it's just the better side of the coin.

[TRadford]

I did notice yesterday when I was going though them, some of "Jimmys" posts were word perfect and no mistakes, others were illedgible. I presumed someone else had typed them out for him. Maybe there is more to that than meets the eye.

[Pete Academy]

The original posting from Jimmy seemed way over the top, which is why I responded with a joke. I'm sure other BC's thought the same.

When I read the post about his suicide I obviously felt guilty, but I somehow smell a scam.

[ped]

Well we would be delighted to be proven wrong, but so far some very simple genuine questions have been left unanswered and met with derision which is rather odd to say the least.

[Marvin]

If it is a scam, then it's pretty low. I have feeling we may never find out.

[ped]

Very easy to prove otherwise with a few simple answers. We'll see, I guess. Just doing our bit to protect the kind folk of BC from being misled and ripped off. Hamster is being entirely reasonable and sensitive, but as far as I know, he is still waiting.
