Hey everyone, I want to throw this out there and get everyone's thoughts on this. We have always been drama free and all the sudden we (mods and myself) have been receiving moderator complaints.

It was reported that a member: Anthony Thomas was using someone else's name to sell cars under false pretenses. If you look at his post, (maybe some can't see it) but it shows his introduction posts was edited by: Anthony Tomaio, so some how this person is using one name, editing with another and wanting to place stuff for sale right away. We are all adults and know we need to look out for one another and be damn careful when spending money buying stuff sight unseen or from someone you don't know.

Continuing, today I received another report and email that miraclepieco was also Anthony Tomaio aka Anthony Thomas. I have trouble believing this report. Miracle had been a great member of the site, participates in posts. He has never tried to sell any vehicle that I know of. Before I could do an ip trace or anything, I found that he is no longer a member of the site. I did not delete him or ban him. I checked our ban log and he doesn't show up as banned. So I'm not sure what happened here. I hope that non of the mods deleted him. If a mod or myself bans someone, that can be undone. Deleting can't be undone.

Anyways, please keep your eyes open and watch out for one another. Please don't let these people who are suddenly filing complaints cause drama. We will work through this and hopefully those filing complaints will leave since Anthony was banned. If Anthony contacts me or any mod and is able to show he isn't using other real names, we can look at unbanning him.

Y'all let me know what you think on this situation. I don't want to see anyone else that actually partakes in our site banned or deleted based off of false information.

Doug

miraclepieco was cool as far as I'm concerned. He obviously had some projects or was associated with some projects and was a member for some time, as near as I can tell. I even spoke to him on the phone a time or two and he certainly seemed on the up-and-up!!

If he could be contacted, it should be done, if for no other reason than as a courtesy!!

Hello,Rat Rod bloggers, You have to admit,this was a very odd time for MiraclePieCo to just drop out,just like that,right when the Mr. Tomaio subject was getting some attention on here.I know he has been on here a bit,but the timing of him dropping off the face of the earth,was possibly so you couldn't get or match a IP address.Very much like A Tomaio has done in past dealings..VERY strange,for sure.just for everyone's information,this IS his MO for years..he has had,and still has DOZENS of different ID's,NAMES,that he keeps active for YEARS on these sites like E-BAY,and classified sales sites.he's been at this for years,and yes he is that good ,when he sold me my lemon,they I found out that he had MULTIPLE Lap-Tops AND servers so he would have Different IP and ID's when you check him..he's a pro !!cost me over 8000,google his name or his cell number on E-BAY.bad idea to post it on here..really makes a guy wonder..and mad,and sad.Matter Closed..His E-BAY ID is bedrockchevy..he has 2 trucks on there now..TAKE CARE,Thank You

I received an apology email stating miraclepieco is not Anthony Tomaio. I still am at a loss as to why he would leave. Everyone does have that right in the end? Just sucks cause at least on the nation he was a nice guy and a straight shooter.

hotwheels · « **Reply #7 on:** August 31, 2016, 04:42:43 PM »

Oh, I think miracle may have been accidentally deleted. I don't believe he left on his own over this.

Miraclepieco, if you are able to read this, please sign back up. You may have to try a different username. I can give you your old name back after you sign back up. I may be able to fix it on my server side, but I'm still working long hours and only have access through my phone right now.

Miraclepieco is good for the site, or at least has been, sure hope he comes back soon.

I know that I am not around that much do to my hobby / passion. But it does seem strange that he would drop out for a second time. All I can say is that he will be back.

I was afraid that miraclepieco was accidentally deleted. Accusations by someone who's only post is that accusation, I find, are at least suspect.

An attempt to make contact with an administrator would be, in my estimation, more appropriate!!

I'm still what I feel is a short timer here. Like I said, I've spoken with him and he seemed to be all he said he was. There must be a way to contact him, or at least I'd hope there is.

If not, i hope he looks in soon and sees fit to let us in on what's happening.

obama · « **Reply #11 on:** September 01, 2016, 06:43:54 PM »

I sent him a e-mail, no answer yet. As a side note even when he did have a truck for sale, he did not push it here. Miricalepieco ain't the problem, but might have been a casualty.

hotwheels · « **Reply #12 on:** September 02, 2016, 08:16:17 AM »

It all works out in the end. Hopefully he will make contact and come back to the site. If not, it's all good.

Anybody heard from miraclepieco???

hotwheels · « **Reply #14 on:** November 02, 2016, 04:56:53 PM »

I heard from him once, but nothing since.

Blackwater · « **Reply #15 on:** September 16, 2017, 10:36:07 AM »

I'm dragging this one back to the top!! Anybody heard from miraclepieco lately??

lowboy · « **Reply #16 on:** September 17, 2017, 08:29:42 AM »

No I haven't heard from him lately. Seems as though this site is in a slump. I've noticed that there are fewer comments from others. The regulars also seem like they are slipping. I haven't seen or heard from Hotwheels either and it's his site. It may just be a summer thing also.

Blackwater · « **Reply #17 on:** September 17, 2017, 09:12:08 AM »

I'm sure that I'm one of those who has been a little slack. I've had this bad wheel and I can't sit in front of the confuser for long or it'll swell up. I'm just about healed up and that'll let me get out some more and get things done too!! Might PM Hotwheels and see how he's doing!!!

Granpascrazzy · « **Reply #18 on:** September 21, 2017, 12:56:28 PM »

hotwheels · « **Reply #19 on:** October 24, 2017, 08:42:05 AM »

My work schedule has been horrible. Not getting much time to do anything other than work and sleep. Hopefully things are slowing down finally.

Blackwater · « **Reply #20 on:** October 24, 2017, 09:46:08 AM »

HOTWHEELS!! Good ta' see ya' back, Bud!!!

Granpascrazzy · « **Reply #21 on:** October 24, 2017, 01:54:45 PM »
