crutch, I did read it... the thing is, and lensman, wizzo or any moderator here will agree... we get tons of people posting their FIRST post to flame a sponsor... how are we supposed to determine it's a true claim or not... more than 80% of the time it's just someone pissed...
the reason I closed the thread is because it was the best way to deal with it...
see, I get a spammer, and I get a 1st poster that claims he's a cheat.. right?
then, I close the thread, it gets burried... if the guy is legit but spams, he woN't get the exposure.. if he's a cheat, he won't get people...
NOW... why did you had to post this here lOL, you have a problem on the AWI board, and come talk about the problem on the GFY board? hehe... next time just contact me dude, I have to make judgment calls, some are better than other, that's all... 
you can go and expose the guy on a new thread, best way in these situations, build your credibility rather than posting as a 1st poster ... just my suggestion.
and dude, I don't remmember the whole 2000+ users by heart... if someone posts a first post about flaming someone, how am I supposed to know it's a legit guy, or one of the many that do that only to bad mouth... pens might be an incredible worker/businessman... but I don't know that... best way is always to talk to me instead of complaining...
same with credit cards... can't get a 20K limit one, even though you have the means to pay for it, if you don't have a credit or can't back it up..

You make perfect sense Mag. The reason i figure you would have asked is cause i see shit fly all day on AWI. But how many times do you get stolen artwork from a designer? Stolen site designs that have been downloaded maybe. But stolen artwork? And coming from a sponser on top of that.
I don't know...just the stolen artwork seemed a little to "out of the blue." Surely enough to investigate. Just my opinion.
Honestly why i came here? Cause i didn't want you lock my thread over at AWI, or be "just another pissing match." I didn't want to start something, and not be able to finish it. I'm sure you can understand.
You're right though. I probably should have contacted you. Regardless, this was not cheap shot about you, as i'm sure you know and as stated above.
That lock thread was the final draw on this situation that i've been trying to hold my breath and not get involved with, and it blew me up.
I'll be sure to contact you in the future.
