Guys

Had a really positive email from him today... He is improving slowly and his spirits seems good. Please keep up the encouragement for this valued member of our community.

So downgrade his account from sponsor to member for Christ sake. Banning him for what? Just like I got a lifetime ban with ZERO notification at all and zero apology from IB advertising(who are at the heart of all this bull****).

IB advertising has run this place into the ground. Moral is at a all time low and NO that isn't because its a new owner. Its because of bull**** like this where someone gets wrongfully banned and pushed out.

I've spoken to several current and ex sponsors on this site. With respect to parties involved I will not disclose names or details but, I swear to god those people over at IB advertising need to learn ALOT about how to treat people. They have ruined this community.

Oh and btw thanks for the womens clothing line ads on my Porsche forum. Thats great.

Btw Adrian this post isn't directed at you personally. I realize its the advertising department that is responsible for bull**** like this. Of course not like it matters. As long as their paycheck clears and their boss says do this what are they gonna do? Grow some common sense? Maybe some humility and people skills? Not likely.

P.S. Great move on posting his personal financial information.

Wow. Just WOW. I just read what they did to Patrick. If I said how I really felt about IB right now, id be banned from Rennlist.

While thats not such a bad thing, id loose contact with the friends (who are actually people) that I have made through this board from being a member of 5 years.

That does it, I'm never giving another dime to this place. I encourage others to re-think their decision to decision to pay an organization that pulls stunts like this. Given the situation, sending legal papers to his hospital was beyond out of line! Best of luck to CPR

Hmm, someone forgot to mention that his contract was voided because his payment was a few days late (for obvious reasons), and they raised his fee enough that he chose not to participate anymore.

Patrick if you bother to look here anymore, thanks for the shipping update on the Reutterwork 944 Turbo forum. Looks like a cool forum, I think I'll join there when I get a chance.

I apoologise for airing Patrick's account status - it stemmed from my dissapointment that Patrick hadn't contacted us in any form to resolve and it was remiss of me.

Please do not apologize to us, make things right with CPR and all's good. I spoke with him today, and he is scheduled for surgery in a week or so, work with him man, his 944 parts is not his primary business, he does this for the enjoyment of it. He's plenty busy with his primary business.


Till then

I had (seperate to that post) sent him a further e-mail, I hope he or one of his employee's responds.
If anyone has any contact with him, if you can pass on that if he could just give us a call thats all we would like and we can work something out with him

Thanks

Your office was able to send him legal documents to the hospital. Seems to me you are able to reach him just fine.

Between Russell Berry and now Patrick... if what I read is true about the legal docs and banning as opposed to account status demotion, the powers that be at IB have no brain and worse, no soul.

By the time we're done it will be Viagra and Motor Sheister as the only two ads.

Just like every other company out for short term profit, IB is happy to cut off their nose to spite their face.

He's been in the HOSPITAL with a BROKEN BACK which obviously you people knew because you served him papers there! (*@#$&(*()* Jesus H. Christ do ya'll think at all???? When something like that happens, no one could give a **** about getting in touch with you because that's not even a remote ****ing priority.

End of my rant

Please recall, that IB Advertising made a mistake which I promptly corrected. They were new to this community and some policies that made sense elsewhere were inappropriate to Rennlist. I can't speak to the CPR issue, but I admit I am curious about sending papers to the hospital!
