Looks like I picked one up as well, even though I did my best to not be a jerk in this thread. I still have only gave out two negatives in my time here.
I didn't expect a ban from this, I figured it would drag out and either end up a post with pictures of hot chicks, or go to the trash can.

And I have given none. I don't know what i'm susposed to be judging....... Something they said that I didn't like? Being rude? Attitude?
Hell, no one would be here INCLUDING me!
I just hope the ratings have not de-evolved to meerly the clic you belong to..............just like in school, i'd be screwed.

I was just thinking, you know what, I believed in what I was saying andI remained honest without being cruel or dissrespectful. If indeed I got a neg becouse of it, so be it. That cost is one I can live with.
Way to raise the bar guys . I mean cmon! Jesus, people jump on the ban wagon so quick its disgusting. Its just like a bunch of middle schoolers ganging up on the poor kid because he is not rockin the allstars. I mean its pathetic that this thread is even here in the first place! Im really disappointed in PFF at the moment and I am on a honda forum that acts more civil.......Just the fact you think someone is not up front is grounds for a ban? We all share the same damn hobby here and that the love for the plastic pentos we drive. Maybe this guy did not have much and he gained some self respect for trying to impress someone by not telling the truth. There are other members here that NEED to be banned but yet most of you just walk hand in hand with them. I hate to say it but you all get butthurt over the dumbest **** . This whole site is nothing but a mob. If someone does something wrong you go and grab the pitch forks and burning sticks and gather in the streets. You are like a Internet version of the KKK. Agree with me or I will hurt you! (by hurt I mean ban). Just like Bdub. He got banned because the clan started crap over noting. Grow up people. My ratings bar will look like ass in the morning. Do I care? Nope, it will just validate my statements.
Agreed to an extent. I've seen this happen a few times now. Who was this guy hurting even if he had his elaborate lies? Wasn't he trying to help out with his kevlar clutch and pressure plate kits? He was also working on trying to adapt the F23 trans for our cars.... Really, more harm done than good. He was farm from a troll (cept in his final moments), and he actually tried helping the PFF community. Cmon now.

i have been threatened with Rodneys control over the Mera info and registery he has...
Several months ago I sent batousai666 copies (at his request) of all the Mera newsletters I produced. 8 or more plus copies of several historical Mera data sheets, magazine articles etc. To date batousai666 has yet to post anything from any of these Mera Registry newsletters and various copies. Nothing. Not one thing. But I get blamed for with holding Mera information? I started the Mera Regisrty about 18 years ago. At that time I was new and very enthusiastic. 18 years later I don't have much of that enthusiasm left anymore.
It seems you have control of a large amount on Mera information and you seem to want to do nothing with it. Why? Then you lay the blame on me?? Why???????????? Why don't you post some of this Mera information??? How sad.

I don't think he got banned just because of this post alone, he went onto attack Rodney in GFC through some older posts Rodney had posted a while ago. He probably wouldn't have gotten banned if he wouldn't have gone those lengths.
He is not that way because he did not have the things he said he had and he did not do the things he said he did. Are you blind? He did post a few pictures of the things he did have. Not much it seems.
Rodney
see i do have FAITH #1 that hes on the up and up....ohhhh that and i have his personal links
my problem with this whole thing is, if Mike did as requested what would change?
Mike stuck to his guns and kept his Privicy. both his and these "costumers" of his.
well kinda....

I googled everything I could think of.
Ferrari, Porsche, Porsche race car, machine shop, monster truck etc. Virtually nothing to be found anywhere. For one that seems to be so involved in so many things it seems odd his name shows nothing on the internet. I would think there would be tons of stuff on the internet considering what this guy says he does and owns.
I found one obsolete post on a truck forum looking for some good used truck parts.

well i could say the same, because it is from you that i got the Mera stuff to post. WHY!? do you not do it?? being the lead in the Mera community i felt that if you wanted them posted you would post them. i will gladly post the letters and anything else Mera, you may have. please send me everything you want to share its your property and out of respect to you and for you, i did not even send any copies to the Mera guys as they requested. not till i got explict permission from you to do so. Now i feel like i can do so with no repercussions. for this i thank you.

My permission would be you can publish anything (in this forum via hand typed etc.) that would not be considered sensitive. Sensitive would be names and addresses etc. I'm not quite sure if I want you to make copies of them and just start passing them out or available for viewing on line. Maybe in the future if we look at them and make some decisions on anything sensitive that may need to be removed etc.

OKAAAAAAAY.... now we are worried about addresses and names......i understand tho. i would never include peoples addresses. i am going to use initals when refering to any cars and owners.
also we DO need to fix some misquotes like the total number of Meras produced and the, GT, SE, Formula thing. for that i need a copy of the masterlist you have for the Mera VIN. i only want the Vins and the Mera number. no addresses or phone numbers, please. i only care about the cars.
i really only need the key digits the model code, engine code, the year code and the last 5 digits, for the Fiero production #'s. either or would be fine.
actually i read were you sent out registery cards to Mera owners addresses ("with a little help of a cop friend" you said) well you want to do that again. i will do all the leg work. a Mera intern if you will. like your appreintce;D. one day i hope to recieve the registery from you willingly. to keep the Mera dream alive for the comming generations. if you are really un-enthusiastic about the Mera, please consider me as a canidate for the future.

Okay, now we're getting somewhere! It may not be pretty, but it's a dialog between people with good intentions. What I don't tolerate is a chest-thumping egotistical 1st class BS-er who won't give a simple answer to a simple show-me question.

Looks like he found a new 2.8 emblem and now it is worth it's weight in gold because it is a Mera item. For someone (his words) who owns multiple companies, owns a professional monster truck team, has a 216 mph Porsche, puts V-8 GM engines in multiple Ferrari's and Porsches etc, etc, etc I can't believe he has to try and make a few $$ with such small trivial items. Even on eBay he sells his kids used cloths and little stuff like Matchbox cars. You would think this guy would be so busy with all his business ventures that little things like this would not be something one would take the time and effort to do. Funny that he can show pictures of his items on eBay but could never post a picture of any of his business ventures etc on Pennocks. Still laughing.
Maybe his businesses is Matchbox cars? Take the V-8 out of the Corvette and put it in the 456 Ferrari. Doesn't that ruin the value of the Matchbox car?

boy oh boy....^^^^ too all the HATERS!!!.....i am not too sure about that.....^^^^ seems like someone may want to get ahold of Mike and tell him someone ELSE in Piedmount, OK is selling Kevlar Cluthces for the Porsche, also
you know it seems to mention the word Porsche alot in the E-Bayhistory of this guy "OldSkool" actually could this BE MIKE(MERA7)????WOW, i think (KNOW) it is!!! and to think he took the speedban instead of simply posting this link. i shoud kill him for making me defend his a$$!
we felt it was over after his ban and he forbid me to post this link to his save REP. (that Mike is such a nice guy)
OK NOW WHAT?.....ALL I ASK FOR IS FULL ACCESS TO THE MERA ARCHIVES, Rodney has. Mike i cannot speak for (even tho i have been secretly all along )
also with some digging on my own....i have found a link that has a VERY similar Ebay ID with some VERY SIMILAR Ferrari wheels MERA7 tried to Pawn off on me..... that supposedly came off Mera #7071.
anyway.....what does this mean?? with Mike gone i felt this was over, but give an inch take a mile.... of rope to hang ones-self may apply here. please chime in if you all think this may be Mike (Mera7).....I DO AND HAVE ALWAYS DID!!

NOPE!! sorry not Mike! this guy is selling OEM Mera tail lights at $595, Mike sells his (rape me price) at $650 last i checked......maybe i should send Mike a bill for defending him.....these will do just nicely i could use a set.

YES! well me and Rodney i am just saying....go thru the ebay link its got P-Car and Ferrari stuff. this is one of his Businesses. this should be enough for YOU ALL TO LET IT GO! NEXT I THINK LAWSUIT, SHOULD THIS SLANDER CONTUNE!! but thats ME and my opinion! you are lucky it is not up to me!!! chumps would hang!
[This message has been edited by batousai666 (edited 02-12-2011).]
i mean come on what else do you want blood? Mike tells me not only does he sell them he can install them....go figure and i cannot change my own spark plugs damn i am dumb
DUDE WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. this ebay is Mike the proof that everybody wanted. he is on thhe up and up!! understand this, please...NEXT!!
That eBay page is proof of nothing except he sells a few used parts and some new clutches. he has only had 177 transactions since April of 08. and most of his feedback is from buying stuff. I think most want to see pictures of his home shop that he described. I really could care less and I had no part in banning him......I would rather have him here, I enjoyed the stories...

that is all right and natural but.....WHY?? if half of it is true why not assume the other half and give the guy the benefit of the doubt in a Christian sort of way.....so if we "could all care" a little less the proof given by RODNEY HIMSELF should suffice. Dont Make Me get the other links i said i had....actually PUT UP OR SHUT UP TIME!!!
why dont you all take up a collection to cover my gas (i have PayPal) and i will Personally take a representive of "their group" as a balance and we will get to the bottom of this once and for all, pictures and the whole 9. i dont see this happening, but there are certian A- list sponsers involved that may want to make a contest out of this instead of a Molehill Mountian. just a thought. i am bored with this anyway i need a "field trip". any takers??

Since I'm pretty sure he didn't have a car, he would have walked over to Mera7's place, though, really he could made his own parts, probably install them.
Why are we going all religious in this thread again?

I don't think he needs you as his personal apologist and nutswinger, proof or no proof. The guy acted like an a-hole and a troll, when he opened numerous old posts to go after one of this forum's original and most respected members. You should be distancing yourself from him, unless you want his same fate.
