Default Why was the thread about "beware of XplicitPerformance" locked?

Just wondering...


I think a thread involving a shady seller should stay open... It only helps.

Do you remember that thread started by texastransam a couple yrs back? Noone closed it, and it got HUGE. But the thread made its point. I think the thread about XplicitPerformance should have stayed open.

I think the regulars on the forum got fed up with always seeing it at the top... We got the point after two weeks... no one's buying from them.

Mod's discretion, as with any board. I think the point was well made and nothing new after the first few pages was coming. However, threads like these, are important to people like me. While I do own an ls6 on not a mustang anymore, I do spend most of my time on my old mustang boards. I do purchase my parts and use shops in my area, as this place is. I guess I just have to use my time and research, as well as use the "Search" function, since I don't spend a lot of time on lsx boards.

The thread was locked for a simple reason!!! It went far enough. I'm sure everyone read the thread, commented and went on about their business. If we all complained about day to day problems, just think how this section would turn out. We just can't have that here. This company is not a ls1tech sponsor. If this should turn into a legal battle, this site does not want any part of it.
