Benjy Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Just gone to PM rwd to ask him if I can collect that broken bomex on sunday and seen that he's been banned. Anybody got any contact details for him so I can get the bumper off him still please?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra joe Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 why was he banned ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 why was he banned ? He asked why a member had been banned and Branners tore him a new one..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 lol, he was picked off for being Powerslide, and Horny_devil. Powerslide was banned for basically trading on the forum and just using the for sale section and not being part of the community. Horny_devil was banned from the for sale section for the same reasons on the basis they might become more of a contributor to the community. RWD caught my eye quite early on but they were using a proxy to hide their IP address so I couldnt tie them back. We had him reported to us by a couple of people and one of the other mods tied him back to the powerslide and horny_devil accounts and so he was banned by one of the other mods. He basically strips supras and sells the parts as a nice little sideline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 So is he Horny Devil in disguise or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 yes, exactly the same bloke. However hornydevil was originally somebody else (check their original posts from a few years back, different posting style), Mobeen is the chaps real name, and he has used Powerslide, rwd and horny_devil accounts. I'm quite sure he has others. Not saying the chap is dodgy (although the car he sold to a member seemed to have a few issues...) but he continues to sell parts as a trader having been warned not to and banned twice for it.

JamieP Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Why not ban horny devil an all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Well in that case I won't bother trying to contact him. As much as i'd love another bomex, but given the grief, I'd rather eat my own liver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripped_fear Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 lol i noticed the car i bought was advertised on driftworks and the username was powerslide Yeah i noticed that and wondered if it was the same Powerslide from here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra joe Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 You sure his real name is not nizam lol, he has quite a few different accounts on here, I've had a run in with horny devil a few years back, what a nightmare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I heard a rumour if you say Nizams name five times into a mirror you get a pm from him about the chance to buy stuff. Saying that his receptionist/Brother is not exactly into customer care either so I have heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 His list of happy punters grows ever bigger. My mate had a run in with powerslide, when sold a good condition wing and it was anything but, It was straight but scratched to hell and a mark where a side skirt had been fitted was visible but he did get a return and refund.

Shane Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 He asked why a member had been banned and Branners tore him a new one..!! Is asking why a member has been banned frowned upon then? I asked the question once about a member local to me and LBM wasn't happy:search:. In this case though, it seems incredible the lengths the bloke has gone to rather than doing it properly in terms of applying for trader status.

Scott Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 In this case though, it seems incredible the lengths the bloke has gone to rather than doing it properly in terms of applying for trader status. It doesn't surprise me in the slightest. He came across as very money orientated/driven and seemed he would describe mutton as lamb just to get a sale. With people like that I am never surprised by the lengths they will go to to save money or make money. Posting a for sale ad with pictures showing the car to have UK brakes and then taking them off, replacing them with Jspecs, to sell and make a fast buck says it all really.

Fitz Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Just to clarify, Mobeen and Horny Devil are 2 different people. However, not to say that they never used each others accounts to post things. Both Horny Devil and Mobeen attended the initial South Coast Run I organised. Neither are Nizam lol, thats a whole new ball game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 In the case of rwd people have purchased stuff from him and so an explanation was due when asked. Normally if we pick somebody off for being a twit then we dont like to discuss it as it can turn in to a shouting match. On this one we had all we needed to do what we had to.

Jimmy James Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I had the pleasure of meeting horny devil on boxing day when he came to look at my smashed up n/a.. Seemed very shady to me, glad I didn't sell it to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at some point he gave his account to Mobeen who used the high post count to get people to trust him. So dont go thinking you are dealing with the original Horny Devil, it was mobeen using his account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you read the whole thread Fitz, Branners has implied, using different peoples accounts, rather than literally being the same person Too slow, beaten by the boss lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 How do you guys even tell who is using what account as I have no idea about computers in that regard. Do you just cross reference how threads are worded or ip addresses?? I suppose I would be easy to spot if someone else was using my account as they would most likely be able to add some use to the forum.
