This is Dub's roommate! He is curently locked down on a drug charge. He did nothing more than than refer Journey to an honorable local Agent in a big network that pays after being asked. He sent 3 posters Cigarman's way: xxxxxxx: xxxxxxxx and Journey. He felt all were good for the credit. I am currently settling his affairs as it looks like he won't be back any time real soon. Cigar has always been good to us and its time to post that Journey also owes someone 6 dimes and is in default. His job was secure if both were paid and stiff gets bigger. Dub is in troubles but leave him out of this.

The JMan Story
First off I apologize in advance to the RX for posting this topic in the main forum but this topic is getting so much play I thought it may be OK.
JMan is one of the shadiest characters on the forums. He used his mod status to get credit, and it's not just with one guy. He's way over his head and pay day is next week.
Here are some of the old JMan stories

Funny stuff, Journey.
Let's remember to add you to the list:
1) The one who tried running a scam with a $100 flyer, then wished cancer on Peep for calling you on the scam.
2) The one who outdid William Jennings Bryan and Senator Joseph McCarthy for ineptitude in the kangaroo trial of Sick Gambler.
3) The one who's been begging Shrink for a mod job for the past year (and hasn't enough of a clue to realize it'll never happen because Shrink doesn't want a total space cadet for a mod).
4) The one who made up stories about being owed by BetMega and Yahoops.
5) The one with the imaginary infant daughter that he used for a sympathy ploy to ask for money.
6) The one who tried to scam Pino from Safari Casino
7) The one who tried to advance in a small contest somewhere else on a technicality.
8) The one who starts 20+ threads a day here with titles like "How do you row a boat?"
All of the above are documented. If I had time, I could probably dig up another twenty or thirty beauties of yours.

But he wouldn't say what that something was until you sent him the $100. Yeah and I've got a bridge to sell you too. Then when Peep told him to quit scamming here he got all pissed off and forced Peep to ban him. Now he's over at MW whining about how the Rx wouldn't let him run his scam and already they're calling him a pain in the ass. Maybe there's a few posters over there who will send him $100. He better work fast because I hear there are bookies after him.[FONT="]<o

Well I won the contest and he said that he would ship out the pager after I sent him my address. Well that took about 2 days, but that was 3 weeks ago now. Well he never sent the pager to me! And now he says that I am ungrateful for the contest!! How can I be ungrateful for something that I never received???
Since then, Journey has sent me around 6 emails cussing at me because I made a post about this on the rx! Am I worng about this?? I mean should I be ungrateful for something that I never received???? I mean he has absolutely NO PROOF that he ever sent anything to me!![FONT="]<o

When you run an open contest, you don't get to decide afterward whether you like the person or not, whether he deserves it or not, etc...you just give them the damn prize.
regarding "moderating": a lot of mods seem to forget that, if they are being compensated for "moderating duty", that they need to take their personal biases out of it and do what is right for their employer (the forum). PO69 has been in post up contests there (so he has supported advertisers) and also contributes to the forum. He is as much a "customer" as anyone else on the website.
Whether a mod personally dislikes someone, or personally disagrees with someone, should not factor in to their "moderating decisions (contests, bannings, etc). But it does, more often than not.
Would there be the same problem if Fishhead had won the contest?
And, hell, J-man was at one time a "problem poster" himself... [FONT="]<o

I was given his phone number and he was vouched for by an extremely veteran and respected Rx poster, actually by 3 posters regarding his reputation (only one gave his number).
Because The Rx doesn't feel we can in good conscience employ a moderator who is also a known stiff, so we put the deal together to pay off the debt in small monthly payments that obviously are dependent on Journeyman actually have a paycheck to take the monthly payments out of. That is no longer the a case and a definite deal breaker.
The Rx. would try to help out it's employees if they asked to be helped in that kind of situation. Rick did not want to fire JM or he would not have made the deal to satify the debt with Cigarman. Regular posters are another story. I will always try to help a poster but there is little I can do with locals as this case prooved.
I heard a rumor that Dubpoet is in Durance Vile (google it) but I am not sure how true it is.
First of all Cigarman never contacted The Rx. he just posted to JM to call him about three times with the last one an obvious message to JM to get off his rear and make a call. That is when I got the number for Cigarman and started the process to resolve the matter without a big on the forum hassle, obviously I failed miserably. JM begged a popular poster who was already playing with CM to vouch for him and he did. He regrets it now a lot.
I hope that helps.

Several well established posters know what went down and all have told me the very same story seprately.

yea thanks for the reply Wil. Sounds like a few people got burned relying on people vouching for guys they don't know. Funny, I do remember you are one guy who posted that a lot - about not making deals on line with people you don't know
I'm digesting that post about Dub being busted for drugs and the 6K to to the other guy now, this gets more bizarre by the minute
