Sorry.....but I promised myself I would post no further on this subject. However being only human I cannot just stand by and see the site I am associated with in being attacked. Number one: on the night of the occurrence it is in the administrators records that only two members had access to the moderator board...NO ON ELSE!! Get it? The moderator that was on that evening even asked other members if they had access to the mod. board while this was going on. The answer from them was a resounding...NO!! Don't hand me this crap about some "glitch" as they would like you, me and everyone else to think! You take it from there. I suggest you get your facts straight Bill instead of second hand crap from those who had a field day in what they did like a bunch of mischievous adolescent children.

Secondly: certain people tried to turn the contest into a farce with entering trees that where to be newly bought from a nursery with trees that were purchased over a year ago!! I'll not give the names but I'm pretty sure any member here can easily surmise who they were! Anything to WIN! Again....just proof of there adolescent behavior. Anything no matter what just to win a contest that was simply meant to be fun and had a few simple prizes involved.
As you damn well know the administrator was so upset by the whole thing as were many of the members that for all practical purposes the contest came to an end with no prizes being given out. The word "rigged" is a slap in the face and by no means did anything even related to that word ever transpire.

Like said Bill......get off the blinders and wake up for God sakes! If you wish to remain blind and follow the blind be my guest. I'm sick of them, they more than deserved to be banned and to be quite frank....I'm sick of your unfounded, second hand information that you seem so willingly to accept as Gospel truth from those who have the intellect of a child and have proven beyond any doubt to behave as such. "nough said.

My apologies here to all the members for having to drag past troubles from another site and have them discussed here. It was never my intention to do so but, I hope you can understand my frustration with being a member here and then having to read post's with my site being attacked by people with second hand information from people who's very character is in serious question. Again....my sincere apologies.

Best, Phil
