Hey guys, c0ld asked for this poll to be made.
You have to decide on whether or not to ban Jake once again.
Any information about recent trouble with him, people who are still missing money or items, etc. etc. would be great.
Personally I am going to wait with voting until I hear some facts. From what I know he has been fine since he came back.. but - the poll and discussion board are open!

Cheers! Good voting!

Have him pay what he owes to people. Having him unbanned for some time might make him available to people who haven't received their stuff yet. If he fails to do this right then I see no reason to keep him here, we don't want new members scammed because we failed to take a simple decision.

By "keep an eye on him" I basically mean that if he does something wrong then BAM! Ban-hammer time. :banned:

I am just going to wait a bit before deciding myself but you may easily be correct :) Let's see what people think.

mfo: Please check the timestamps on those - they are from before he was banned. What would be nice to know is whether some people STILL haven't got their stuff/money, and whether he is going to do anything about it.

If he has blatantly ripped forum members off in the past. And if this is FACT.
Then their should be no reason for someone like that to be allowed back.
I'm new around this place. Who's going to protect us newcomers from getting ripped off, from known scamers?

I agree with Niko...
I think he should be allowed to fix what he owes and perhaps
not be allowed to sell anything else until all old issues are solved.,
It is difficult to contact Jake if he is not available here...

I too want more new info before I vote...

By not letting him sell on LPF until all past issues are solved...

why are we even discussing this? hes already shown his "non-interest" in paying people back by posting WTB threads in the BST section. if he was interested in paying back why is he wanting to buy stuff?

Maybe ndrew, but so far I have not seen a single post from a person he actually still owes anything to.. I would like to see that before I decide.

so we should continue to let him buy stuff when he owes folks money?

So lock him out of the B/S/T section...or block him from the Forum
but leave the E-Mails and PMs open...

Rather than saying no to every idea... help us out with some of your
ideas to get those past Jake owing issues solved..:D

probably b/c a lot of them dont frequent as much as they used to. the same reason i dont see alot of members that were here when i signed up. most of the people he scammed were n00bs that were looking for a cheap laser and probably wont be back... why dont you speed up the process and start pm'ing the people that posted in his profile...? i dont see why we should have to sit around and wait to see who he scams next or if others will even get their money back. thats like a slap in the face to those that have been scammed.

@jerry: i dont see any point to keeping him around. like i said hes already been banned 2 or 3 times. how many times does it take? he appearantly hasnt learned yet...

Hey Drew... I understand your point of view... and I guess you've already
made up your mind on how to vote...

I just would like anyone that got shafted by Jake to have an opportunity
or chance to get what belongs to them..

I have just PM'ed all those people. Let us see whether he has actually scammed anyone before we draw conclusions.
