maybe you guys should start a "KB owes all of us...." thread. And list exactly what is owed. He shouldn't borrow or sell if he can't pay if it goes wrong.

sounds like a good idea to me....and someone that has been ripped off by him should start a negative thread in feedback...if it has not been done already.Originally posted by BolterComment

I dont know why some of the members have such a "aw shucks" attitude about this situation just cause they have met KB. Why is he even making deals if he cant pay, he's a scumbag if he's doing that no matter how "nice a guy he is"
Not to mention the fact that people have already stated that the whole deal was fairly shady to begin with...
I dont care if I make a deal with kindly old wilford brimley, if he rips me off he needs a bat taken to his figgin' kneecaps....all the Quaker Oats in the world wouldnt make that situation any brighter. I have no tolerance for thievery or jerk offs.

Well, I've got his cell phone number, and I will be calling soon. How many poeple does he owe stuff?
btw, here is the email he sent me:
I apologize sincerely for the situation as it went down. I know what
happens
to me is none of your concern you just want your stuff, but the past
few
weeks have made it impossible to contact you. not to go into it too
much,
stuff like police and jail was unexpectantly involved and now i have no
computer to contact you on. I am working on the situation ASAP and hope
to
have money to refund you soon. Again my sincerest apologies for this
and ill
try to make good by compensating for the wait somehow... ThanksLast edited by Thermus; 04-26-2004, 03:30 PM.FOR SALE: Intelliframe, AGD Flatline, AA Apocolypse, Powerlight Scepter, and more!!

Hope that works. I tried emailing and PMing him on your behalf, after I talked to you on PBnation. He did'nt respond to either and has'nt posted here in around a month. He seems to be laying low.Comment

Apparently he got kicked out of his house, got his computer and marker taken away, and thats why he hasnt been on. That story was verified by the person who gave me his phone number.FOR SALE: Intelliframe, AGD Flatline, AA Apocolypse, Powerlight Scepter, and more!!

Ok guys, chill, we ALL know KB is no angel, but also he DOES ushally get around to makeing good on everything...
In this case, this guy has every reason to be ticked off...yes I agree, shouldnt have happened, KB agrees...
I called KB asked him about it and if he wanted me to give the guy his cell, he said that would be good...so its obvious hes not hideing
KB is currently computerless, markerless, and soon if not already homeless if Im not mastaken, which is not REALLY an excuse, but theres not much he can do at this point...
as to making deals he cant pay... well, that was an accdent I dont know all the details, and none of my buesness, but there was something about Paypal issues... but It sounded like he had the full intentions of the transation going fine...but things happen...
Im sure it will be resolved accordingly, but as always it seems, it may take a wee bit longer then any of us would like to see it take...-Jim "CodeMA" Brown

Well...when ya find him...get me my $400 from him too please. KB WAS a good man, but something happened back around last July and he's been kinda shady ever since. I know KB probably as well as anyone. He stayed in my room at AO events many times and I actually paid for most of his trip to the first Shatner Ball. Again, I had faith in him, and I guess to some extent, I still do, but the guy has some serious money issues and spending issues he needs to resolve.

Sure hope he still has that A4 or atleast the money to pay this guy back.Originally posted by CodeMAComment

Well excuses excuses.... some of this stuff goes back to last November. My story which I have kept quite until now is this...
Last Nov at SE AO day his girlfriend wrote a $200 check for four cases of paint to the field that hosted the event for us. She wrote it for his paint. He had her do so. So I gave my word to the field owner and ok'd the check. It bounced. I finaly got in touch with KB and he promissed to make good on it. He told me he would send them some money when he could. I accepted that. But then I would see him (his picture anyway) at almost all the various AO events and big events that cost a lot to attend! Obviously spending money... Money I did not have to travel to events myself. No payment was ever recieved as far as I can tell. He didn't seem concerned about paying it back it looked to me. I guess I am going to have to choke up the money to the field myself to make it right. I vouched for him and I guess I was wrong to do so. So thats like five months have gone by. And he has indeed had the money but chose to go to play paintball with it. The evidence is clearly here in the pictures of him at those events.
But this is all another link in the chain. Sorry but I am giving up on old KB. And I certainly cannot allow people to think because he is an old member here that he can be trusted. The rest of the old time members here do not deserve for him to tarnish that reputation. Even though that should not be reason enough to trust someone people do... And I cannot allow people to cover up for dishonesty no matter who it is. We have our integrety to maintain.Comment

Well, I cant say that I found out about all these insidences before now, because I havnt...a few other things, yes, but they were all taken care of to the best of my knowledge...
KB did right by me, crashed at my place the night before TexBall, and gave me a ride up the rest of the way to Plano(as cramped as it was, but hey, beggers cant be choosers) and shared a room with me and a few others as well at TexBall, ended up giving me a case of feild blaze and like a half case of evil on top of the ride up for staying at my place as well... I think he ended up selling a spare tank to make it back to Houston
Based on this, I thought he was a pretty ok dude, and we all have our rough times, I didnt know he had as many as he did mind you...but still...
As to him having the angel anymore, I dont think so, the cash, again prolly not, not for awhile eather from the sounds of it...
Now Im not gonna put myself on the line fully here for KB, but I will help in what ever way I can/have so as to get this resolved ASAP...-Jim "CodeMA" Brown

I understand your feelings. Up until lately I too had held out hope for KB to get things right. I too am saddened by all this. I wish I could defend him but I cannot any longer. It would not be the right thing to do. Seems he has hit rock bottom now. I give up.Originally posted by CodeMAComment
