I just wanted to provide proof that people have/ are being paid back from my huge mistake that I made and wanted to keep everyone updated with the progress.

More...

Wow man, I dont know anything about what happened, but it's obvious you're seeking to make it right. That's a lot of money in damages...damn.

Keep in mind those all have PayPal case numbers attached to them. That means that PayPal had to force the issue. These paybacks were mandated by PayPal.

IDK what happened, but this thread seems kinda silly.

Perhaps you should read and investigate what happened, then I don't think it will seem silly to you anymore.

I fail to see how stealing thousands of dollars from many of our board members is silly.

I wasnt saying that stealing was silly I was saying that this thread is silly. I did research this a little now and still say this thread is silly. I was kind of going of of this

To me this makes it seem like this proof is only being provided as a way to seem like he is doing the right thing. He shouldnt have to prove it to everyone on here though, just the people who were involved. Didn't mean to doubt the seriousness of the issue here.

Sorry

Please dont think I was trying to start any issues or make anyone upset.

To me this makes it seem like this apology is not entirely sincere and is why i said the thread was silly. Didn't mean to doubt the seriousness of the issue here.

Sorry

Yes, that is exactly the point. He did not apologize to anyone until AFTER he was caught making two different identities so that he could continue to steal from more people. No apologies were made until he decided it was a last ditch effort to try to continue selling nonexistent plants and frogs to the hobby. Would you prefer that everybody kept quiet until you were ripped off? It's not silly to those who lost money. How is it proof that he is sorry or proof that he is trying to make good on things when the only thing provided are the funds the PayPal is FORCING him to pay back?

I edited my post a little so Pumilo's quote may not match up exactly.

I was not trying to say that what happened was silly, or any other threads regarding the issue. I would obviously want to be informed of issues like this as to avoid them myself. Thank you for clearing it up for me. I wont post in controversial threads when not fully educated anymore.
