Default Official REDFIRE Explanation Thread.

I think all of us here at SRK deserve an explanation from Redfire as to why he had us duped. I for one saw redfire as one of my heros and I always sought him for advice.

I know it has been a while and the betrayal hurt me but I am ready to hear his side of the story and hopefully we can all walk away from this laughing and drinking some beers together.

Please Redfire, explain why you duped us... and most importantly... me.

The Redfire duping ranks up there with who killed Kennedy or what happened to Jimmy Hoffa. Just something we will never know.
I have already accepted this.

I believe redfire is better than that and will explain to us all why he has duped us so dishonorably.

REGAIN YOUR HONOR REDFIRE!

My thinking is either Redfire has a multiple personality disorder or he is really embarrassed that he is poorer than the average person on here and makes up these screen names so that we think he is better (richer) than he really is.

Redfire wants back so badly. He's tried at least 10 new accounts but he sticks out like a sore thumb. We know he's poor, but that's ok. Redfire if you want back in you might as well just use you original Redfire account and explain yourself.

Been a member since 09, but I've only been following SRK since last year. I see a lot of people mention Redfire but I missed his era I guess. What are some of his confirmed or most likely account names recently. When I started following this section I remember seeing TitanTransam in every thread, but haven't seen him in most of a year. Was that one of his accounts?

As an SRK ambassador I extend an invitation to Redfire to meet me for a beer. If you all remember your SRK history I was the first person to hang out with 2ss and give him a seal of approval of being a legit dude when others may have had their doubts.

Redfire, come get a beer with me. Hell my treat. Hugger1975, R6cowboy, and 00FirebirdaREV are also invited. They will back me up in saying that I'm a fair normal-ish kinda person

"Boosted_1" is phag I know from the Chicago area. His mission was to "out me" on all the GM forums, but he was obviously "late to the party".
