Fair point, but I feel as I had added Alex to my trust list (aware he was Russian and those guys needed rep) I was pretty pissed at that thread and the blatant manipulation going on there.

and I didn't ask for the thread to be deleted - please quote me where I did? I asked for action by the Mod - none has happened as he has admitted, if you think that is cool - then who am I to say, its your show fella
