IMO, there are some much bigger con artists on this board, which most people aren’t too concerned about. Its a bit worrisome that in this industry, on the boards in particular, if you are liked, you can get away with theft and people will take up for you, delete threads, etc. If you are an unknown, then you can just be taken to the cleaners, have your reputation ruined over what really amounts to not a whole lot of proof.
The policy here is that we do not delete threads. Posts with questionable content have been removed with an explanation as to why they have been edited.
I believe this forum does insure that personal attacks are kept to a minimum, unlike other forums.
[QUOTE=deanb;51782]Slade doesn’t even post here to defend himself. I think this is kinda ridiculous posting this in a place where he doesn’t even read it to give his side of the story. Slade has said it that it isn’t him, and what has been posted about him is sketchy information, at best.

The posting of this info wasn’t for Slade’s benefit. Exactly the opposite. Anyway, I asked Slade on GMS to identify himself & state who he works for or what sites he runs. He has continually refused to do so. He hides behind a nickname and cartoonish avatar with no sites or company listed (like you I might add).
Dean, I don’t really care if you don’t think there isn’t enough proof. Anyone with half a brain will see otherwise. Seriously!
This defending of thieves is sickening at best. Interesting how its usually people who troll the boards anonymously that are the first to defend and take offense to accusations.
Well if someone is using Identity theft for domain’s whois information, you can pretty much count on those domains being/having been used for shady practices and I wouldn’w want them anywhere near my servers. He probably cannot claim ownership until he gets the login information for those registrar accounts.
He has already responded on another board. Weeks ago, this drama is old, worn out, and IMO tired. It’s the same stuff that has already been posted.

I should have clarified that a little more. I actually wasn’t speaking about this board, just other boards in general. The whole thing frustrates me to no end when someone get dragged through the mud with little to no evidence, yet when something happens with a ‘bro’ its blown off.
Now I get attacked. You haven’t posted NEAR enough proof, if this went to court, it wouldn’t see the light of day in a court room with what you posted. Now if you have some more compelling evidence that Slade is a thief then I am all hears. I have not ONE time EVER in my life spoken to Slade, so I have no reason to defend him. Its just that your evidence is weak.
Dean, sorry of you feel attacked. That’s what happens when you come to the defense of known thieves.
As for this being old & tired, I simply posted it here because Bjorn only recently created a blacklisted sites forum. I thought it was important that these sites be listed.
I just noticed yesterday that he has a new processor and that’s the reason I updated the thread on GMS.
If you’re tired of this drama, stop reading the thread.
of course he feels attacked. anyone would feel attacked if this were addressed to them:

You are still missing the point sigh. You haven’t proved that it is Slade that owns the sites in the first place, much less enough to call him a “known thief”.
I agree with you that the sites in question are content theft. What I don’t know, and you have yet to prove, is if it is indeed Slade that owns them. Maybe that makes more sense.
i believe it was said that bec had proved that slade did own the sites…

He was the owner of the singular version of the domain, nothing has been found to solidly link him to the plural version. I own plenty of singular versions of domains, and almost never purchase the plural. Speaking of which, I should go buy up some of the plurals, just in case.

Actually I not missing the point. I feel as though I have provided ample proof. Like I said before, if you disagree, fine, that’s your right and it’s also your right to say so which you’ve done several times. I got it, you don’t agree with me.

You’re welcome.
That email address [email protected] is the same email address used on ALL of his other domains posted in this thread, the ones that are now private used the same email as well, confirmed via historical whois. Even after he changed the address of his public whois yesterday, he maintained that same email address!
Looks like he’s hosting with NationalNet, it would be nice to see Luke take ownership of those domains since his info was illegally used on them. Minimally Luke now knows who to really go after. Now the GMS administrators can give Luke Slade’s IP address so he can be tracked and properly served court documents.
Do I think any of that will happen? No. I think people will forget. I think Slade will be allowed to continue to post on GMS. Minimally he’ll hide out a while, come up with a different identity, and keep doing what he’s been doing.
What have we learned? We’ve learned that POSTING THIS INFO PUBLICLY GIVES THESE PEOPLE A HEAD START IN HIDING, OR CHANGING, INFO.
FINALLY someone posts something that ACTUALLY links him to those domains. There are still SOME holes that could take him off the hook here, but its unlikely. Hell if someone looked up my sites from 2006, not telling who they would think I was. I have bought / sold many things since then.
