Ok, someone scammed me 30k dollars and I'll shout to the world:

"Look at me! I'm the guy who suffered the biggest and dumbest scam in gamedom"

Just saying...

So you're saying if someone took you for $30k you'd sit on your ass and take it?

Look, I'm not a scammer. I just want to talk shop.

I'd like to participate here and leave the bullshit on NG.com where it belongs.

If that's impossible, tell me.

I've butted heads with a lot of you, but in the end I don't want trouble.

It's the reputation man, it's the reputation you have wether deserved or not, what makes it difficult.

I know I'll never escape it, bro.

Wish I could - but I can't change anything.

People who chose to believe that I was involved in a scam will never change their mind.

Look, if I took people for all that money, I wouldn't be here.

I don't expect anyone to forget what happened, but just ask that you look at the facts instead of the speculation.

You of all people should know that in addition to the cross pollination of gaming sites like this, the whole mess was featured on gaming news sites world wide.

leaving the past behind is going to a damn near impossible thing, if you're not willing to lay it all out.

woah, didn't you go around telling people that AF3 was real?

Do you still believe its real?

And Yet you brokered the deal. Now given that - how could you go possibly go around saying you didn't scam anyone.

No matter what I say, it won't be good enough. I can toss people under the bus to save my own ass, like others did to me. But that's not my style - I don't care.

Yes, I still do believe it's real.

And I believe PS2 is real as well.

If I thought they were fake, I wouldn't have gotten involved.

Remember, you all passed over an in depth review with facts pointing to the legitimacy of the games to a remorseful, half assed report from a French buyer that made no sense.

Given the accusations that have been leveled at TonK, I think this pretty much sums up how nothing's changed at all.

Really, even if time had healed some wounds, sticking to the same old behaviour will just open them again; did that not occur to you at all?

Sup TK,

It's been a while.

It's kinda hard to leave the past behind you when you were brokering the deals of the decade.

And like it or not, looks like you still seem to attract a lot of attention every time you log on.

Hope things get better.

I've been around long enough to build a rep on honesty and non-gouging... I'll admit... I don't usually come on schmups... NG.com is my baby and I'll stay there.... always will....

However, consider this.... I'm posting for the first time here in a VERY long time... I've been part of the gaming scene since forever...

This should infer to you how serious I feel about this matter....

Tonk was my friend... and on a personal level... i love the fook... however, on a business level.... I cannot be... but be disappointed in what I've seen happen to Tonk...

Most people here don't, either. It's especially harmful for PCBs.

It's absolutely baffling that nobody is taking into account the fact that nobody has asked for their money back...

You kinda nailed it.

People are making it out to be a huge mess - in all reality, there is no issue. People just want there to be one.

They asked DAVID, not me - and David refunded them.

What's that have to do with me?
