Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I agree that no matter what someone's reputation is, someone who initiates a 'Bad Guy' post should provide as much information as possible about that particular transaction.

He is not asking me to post anything here. I'm just asking him questions/finding information that he has posted on his Facebook. Anyone here can do that as his posts are public.
I do agree that more information needs to be posted.

If I find anything out from him that would help either side it'll be posted here.

If he can't post here, then you can't act as a go between, which is what you are doing in this forum.

If he can't get the information himself, then it's not your job to get it for him.

You're not just doing that. You're taking information from one place (facebook), bringing it here, and then asking questions to take back to facebook to give there. If the OP wants to give information then he can and should do so on this thread without you prompting him. Also, if anything is asked by Mike Matson in regards to this, and you come and ask it here to get his answers or give his answers, then that is being a go-between for a banned member. Which isn't allowed considering there is a reason he is banned.
So since he shot his own foot off and got himself banned from here, he doesn't really need to have someone respond or get answers for him.

Hi Brandi, just to clarify, I am getting info from Mike's Facebook and posting to here, and asking him questions I find on here. I'm not asking questions for him or gettinf info for him, nor has he asked me to do so at any point.

He cannot post the information himself. That's my point. If he can't post it himself then why should you?

I do see your point regardless, I'm just trying to get all the facts on the situation. Sorry, posting from my phone and hit Post Quick Reply instead of Go Advanced. I'll post more when I get to my laptop.

So are you saying only one side of the story should be offered? I just want to see both sides of the story, which is why I am asking him questions based on what I see here. I'm not asking questions for him, I'm not posting for him in any way. I'm doing this so there is more info for everyone to read. Talk later.

The reason he cannot post is his own doing. And I'm not sure I believe the little fiction going on here, that you ask him questions, he knows about the threads, and he is innocent of trying to frame a reply.
You are acting as a go between and in my opinion, you are circumventing the ban placed on him because of his own actions.

What part of, if he didn't get himself banned then he'd be able to post on his own, don't you get? Since he can't post for himself NO ONE ELSE needs to post for him. That's what I am saying. So unless the OP has the same information that you do, then NO, it doesn't need to be here. Since Mike Matson cannot post the information, then it does NOT need to be posted. You ARE posting for him, by posting information that he has stated. You're not doing this for everyone, you're getting it done for him. Whether you want to actually state it or not.
