I've had a few but I honestly can't tell if you're fucking with me. What do you mean? What deal, like a system mod? I just remember him doing lots of mods, did some for me, and seemed pretty legit. He had a legit job in Pharma why the fuck would he back out of a system mod deal worth almost nothing?Believe it or not but he took the money and ran on a deal. Never came back.

We're going back in time Lonesage, before everything went to shit. I gave Scanberg (the gym rat) the password to my account the several months before I was shitcanned here and he posted some cringe unfunny shit. What happened with him? What happened with Butta and FatGuy? What about Tonk or Mercenary99x or whatever his name was? I've been away a long fucking time before Roker brought me back.Almost 16 years ago this happened, bruv
It's all gone to Hell, everything is shit. Looking at my join date is weird because I think I joined in 2002 or 3, before my account was merged with the Chicago guys (which I guess is where that 2005 date comes from.) It's so fucked up to think how many years ago that was. It is depressing.You have to wonder why you even came back, we're all trying to escape by this point.
Not just here, he was on many forums and had a lot of peoples’ money and systems. I still wonder what happened, a part of me still can’t believe he’d just suddenly scam and ghost, but what if he died suddenly and his family had no idea what to do with the systems?Believe it or not but he took the money and ran on a deal. Never came back.
Oh please it would not have been about money or systems at all, that would be a pittance to him. Dragoli was a chemical engineer with a legit job in pharma if I remember right.Not just here, he was on many forums and had a lot of peoples’ money and systems.

Dean isn’t the only one that’s done this from around that time period though. There were so few people doing mod work then it seems like some people would do good work for years then get backed up and ghost.
From Chicago no less.Dat cheeseburger crew
In all likelihood, it was the only instance of a PhD running an exit scam here. Nevermind being a crook moderator hiding in plain sight. Wish I could recall the moniker of a Livejournal group blog that gradually tallied each of the publicly discernible rip-offs Dean set up. IIRC, it documented at least 38 fraudulent console/adapter/handheld transactions from myriad forums & email listservs(many long defunct by now)... I remember eventually reading via Assembler & racketboy discussions that quite a few people located outside the U.S. & Canada were victimized, as well.
All of this. It was in mail fraud territory. Hope he gets fucked with a rusty fishing knife
Might just midlife crisis …. Or something happened in his personal life.Oh please it would not have been about money or systems at all, that would be a pittance to him. Dragoli was a chemical engineer with a legit job in pharma if I remember right.
Far more likely that he just burned out on the hobby and said fuck it, after too much build up.
