Before I begin with my reply / answer / justification / excuses etc. A message for Cossey that I will allow everyone else to see and read. Cossey, when I was told about this thread you made and heard your post read to me outloud I was very upset. There is nothing worse than having someone who has major personal issues with you type up a post for a thread like this , that tells a story they do not fully know and understand. To top if off, you banned my account before making this thread so that you could buy yourself enough time between posting and me getting in here, to hopefully see as many people jump on the “hate singh” bandwagon as possible. That is cowardly. You said I was banned because I was a threat to shifts existence and that a reply or justification was not necessary because your story is the end all be all. That is not true on multiple accounts. If I was a threat to shift, I would of done my damage the week after I was removed from shift admin and then restructured my account back to super admin. I did nothing since, had not harmed the site operations in any which way whatsoever. Your claim of me being a threat is false, and your real motive was to hold me off from posting my answer and reply to this ridiculous thread you have made. You only know what I want you to know cossey… everything you found out was a result of you looking on ben’s facebook status comments and seeing what I posted. You know nothing more and I guarantee that. You , and the rest of the admin team have zero to low understanding of this environment and how things work. I feel your dumbfounded pain deeply. ---

Therefore it was disabled. > > Edit X2: As far as I know, no other customers accounts have been hosted from that server. that “little singh” was an account made upon the creation of this forum for testing purposes.

Ya know why there is only a few members posting in here ??? Cause they just got a huge dose of reality !!! We all bitch about the nisky lot being clowns !!! Guess what we do it to . K.b.b made another forum with free reign !!! Noone posts … Ya know why ??? Shift has stood thru a lot and we all love it here that’s why we bitch about it …I have no issues with singh personally but we can allllll agree what was done was fucked up and that’s why only a few r trying to stick up for it !!! It may sound corny but without this site I wouldn’t of meat a lot of good people /friends/customers !!! I bitch about it here and have fought with vlad numerous times but in the end HE Has this place for us WITHOUT ANY PAYMENT. All he asks for is a little respect and all of us exc for a few wanna call him a faggot /bust his balls etc for it ??? I agree some ball busting is funny but its fuckin old as hell now . Either grow up or fucking leave !!! All this is coming from a giant 8 yr old that plants his titties on cars for laughs !!! I’m not saying I’m perfect at all as I live busting balls etc but its old once in a while its funny as hell but get off of class nuts about shit . Singh is a good kid in my eyes but he also didn’t burn me like he did someone else . Granted there is 3 sides to every story but from what I know myself singh did break everyone’s trust by searching pm,s and hacking site of sorts …so long end give it a rest , this wasn’t a bash singh thread just a heads up for what vlad has to deal with behind the scenes so we can all enjoy it here !!! This entertaining site is free !!! Any other site I have this much on , I have to pay for so give vlad a break … John, first of all , i didnt “fuck up” AT ALL. I didnt get “caught”. I said in public, what I wanted to say, and cossey read it and felt like a detective. NO fuck ups on my end, i did not make any mistakes. and this IS a bash singh thread by all means, because everything going on here involves nothing concerning the members of the site, no one was harmed or banned / edited because of me. This was a thread made in hopes of receiving sympathy as well as bandwagon passengers. > [@Best place to have letterhead made?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/best-place-to-have-letterhead-made/50487/10): > > Simple question for Dave. I am a newish member here. Yes or no answer will suffice. Did you open and read private messages between members without consent or acceptable reason (ie fraudulent sales)? lol okay ill play this game. Did i read ANY private messages AT ALL? YES YES i did. There is 30/40/50/60 thousand private messages on this forum. Me, and Vlad, and possibly others have read private messages in the past mostly by mistake. There is vbulletin bug that emails you someones private message by accident when it should of went to the original recipient . I did not read thousands of PM’s. As much as I have no interest in doing so, i just don’t have the time haha. For the record… I searched “Singh” and found about 12 or so pm’s regarding my name. 8-9 of which were negative. Cossey is uptight because he knows I saw what him and JVG were saying about me. Which was out of control racist, in a serious non joking way. Cossey has gone out of his way to express my paranoia , please understand that this “private message reading” actually took place within all of 10 minutes or less. I was in the database and for fun searched my name, read a couple of fucked up things and then that was it. I was not searching and reading for days on end lol, i took less than 10 minutes for fun. I was also not alone, i had someone else sitting next to me who didnt believe i had the ability to do so, so I showed them. If they didnt ask me to prove it, i probably would of never bothered to look and search up pm’s and waste 10 minutes of my time. They were there and thought it was funny and both of us were pretty surprised of what we found. Again, Cossey, you only knew what I wanted you to know. You make up this ridiculous paranoia story of me searching and reading people’s pm’s for financial gain, its disgusting. ---

Oh Singh, I am flattered that you’d consider what you and I have “major” personal issues. I’ll tell the story as it happened for everyone to read, and I’ll put it in steps so everyone can clearly understand what happened. 1. Months ago, after Vlad “removed” you from mod/admin team after the server move, I tried setting your account to a regular contributing member account and it would not allow me to. It gave a reason that you were under a protected user status, so I asked Vlad about it and he didn’t know what that was. I did some searching of my own to find out how to fix that issue. 2. Someone told me everything you said on Ben’s FB page. I didn’t go FB stalking as some would like to think. 3. I told Vlad to see what he wants to do, as well as made a post in the mod section about it to get all mods’ opinions on the matter. The general consensus was overwhelmingly against you (as in no one was in your favor). I drafted up that original post using everything that was told to me. 4. VLAD decided to ban you and lock you out of your account. I actually told Vlad I just wanted to remove you from classifieds since you were shitting on everyone’s thread, and made a new user group to do so and put you in it. Vlad had final say in the matter, so he banned you, not I. I WANTED to see your response to this, as quite frankly I really am interested to see how paranoid you are to go so far as to read every PM that had your name in it. THAT is cowardly. You didn’t even give a reason in your “rebuttal” to me, when several members want to know why you did that. The hosting of your stuff on the server Vlad paid for, I’d let slide, but reading PMs that were not sent to you is fucking ridiculous. ---
