Maybe it was a hoax? Seems to me like they'd fix all his problems first before coming on here and announce that they are going to try.

Was the previous thread actually from Robs partners or was it a hoax?

They are no longer a sponsor. No need to advertise they are "making right" on a forum that has sponsors who actually pay to be able to post there services (good or bad). Plus the sponsors we have here, even the worst (whomever that may be), are better than that shop doomed for failure. As far as I'm concerned, good ridance to them; even if they have good people involved in the business now. Rob has had too many chances and too many shots

It was deleted because of non-sponsor soliciting.

Great, so any negative feedback to come out of the shop will get locked down immediately, and mods/"admins" will take sides with their paying sponsor. Sounds like a great deal for a shop with a bad rep (rightfully so bad rep..); too bad it's the customers (of the forum and shop) who gets screwed.

Don't get me wrong, there are good people involved in the shop. But in the end "He" is still involved. If I were any of you, the last thing I'd want to associate with a 'new shop' is his reputation and business practices.

I would definitely advise against letting them become a sponsor here. There is too much negativity associated with that shop.

I would never even venture near that shop, as long as He is still involved in it in any way.
