Call your Local customs agencies and report wicked lasers, so anything with thier return address gets confiscated

If I do that, will Customs award me with a "Jr. Laser Snitch" badge?

But why? I didn't break the rules. Just because I posted on this forum? Most of my posts I have writing here I actually defended LC and now I got banned.

Why you ask? It's really simple.

It's like an epidemic, if you come in contact with people who've contracted deadly and contagious viruses, they'll quarantine you.

Well... in this case, banning you be their form of "quarantine" I guess.

It seems that they are not only happy with removing your god-given RIGHT to an OPINION but now they want to remove your RIGHT to join any forum of your choice. Maybe you should have asked for their permission first ??

Look at it this way, Only a Scammer would just start banning people, in order to protect their scamming business practices and lies.

Anyone who is legit will step up to the plate and defend their business and their good name, as well as make changes to their business practices to gain the customers trust and respect.

When one of my customers has a problem with the product that they purchased, I will pay for the shipping and send them another one, until the customer is happy. Word of mouth advertising is THE BEST form of advertising there is. Weather it be positive or negative, as in WL case.

Perfecly said. That is indeed the way to describe the situation.

They are currently on a counter-rampage to make sure none of their future newbie customers will see the light of this forum, or the truth about other lasercompanies before they sell an overpriced underspecced first.

Their aiming at the following: New laser enthousiasts see wicked first, get overwhelmed by the marketing machine,. noticing a beautifully filled forum at LC, with lots of Happy customer experiences.. not a bad word about WL to be found. Order placed. high chances are new laser enthousiasts won't have laser meters to checkup. big profit for WL.

-- Follow up,. newbie is growing in knowledge and is stuck on getting more information on the laser addiction needs. goes googleing, and enters a whole new world of true laser enthousiasts that live outside the matrix-world of WL. Learns a lot new stuff on lasers, and the laser economy with the good and the bad. returning to the first safe haven LC to find out he's already banned, because they noticed him getting smarter on laser scam tactics, and being arround on other forums.

Circle is completed. Former-Newbie has been scammed, actually knows too much info about the true tactics of WL. gets banned, to make room for other laser newbies just rolling in on WL by googling and entering a happy forum of LC to complete the circle of ordering again.

It's obviously a marketing strategy that works well, and is increasing profits to continue this way of selling. Its just such a damn shame that most of the future laser enthusiast generation has to go thru all this. :-/

Well at this rate we just have to hope that we can convert enough people into the light and WL will cease consumer laser sales. Doubt this will happen but we can try!

Oh I think the members of this forum have made a big dent recently on WL customer base and profit.
I also believe WL has help us do that with their own actions.
Scammers are not usually to bright, and they like to take the easy route to make their money. SO its easier for them to BANN people rather than run a decent business.

Thanks
