Basically, Dark wanted flexdrives to build some lasers as he had taken orders for completed lasers when he had no flexdrives in stock (at the time, I only knew he needed flexdrives.)
I decided to do a deal with him, and I let him "borrow" a flexdive - he would send one out when Dr lava restocked. He got it, and it "didn't work" - I never found out if he was bsing me here, but this isn't important. He said that it was no problem, and that he would send my driver out when he got a new batch.
I waited for months, and although I occasionally asked him if he had them yet, he said he didn't. I then became suspicious, and Pm'd Dr Lava for confirmation that Dark hadn't got any yet. I was told that DAo0 had received 4 orders and a total of ~30 drivers. I then send a firm but polite PM to DAoO, and told him to send one out. He said that he would.
While this was going on, the ban polls started coming up, and DAoO started losing his cool. I still have some of his anti-dave rants in my PM inbox BTW, they are hilarious. I didn't vote in poll 1 as I thought that he would not send the driver. At this times, our relationship was cordial, and although I had criticised his actions in the forum, he either hadn't noticed, or ignored it.
By the time the 2nd poll came up, Tyler has been stalling, and pissing me off, so I stopped delaying my voting, and voted "yes" to ban. I immediately got a PM from him, saying that he had betrayed me, and that I wouldn't get my flexdrive at all.
He then got banhammered, and I emailed him a couple of weeks ago, and loled at him. Here is the series of emails - I find them funny.
Hey Tyler,
Just reminding you that you owe me a flexdrive, and if you had a shred of decency about you, you would send one out to me. Obviously, I'm not expecting you to, because you have lied to me about it in the past, and ripped others off, but send out out.

if you had had a shred of descency in YOU, you wouldnt have voted yes on a ban on someone who owed you something
lifes a bitch isnt it. appreciated the support you showed
have a nice one. had you actually voted no, and not put on an act like you were my "friend" the whole time JUST because i owed you a flex, you prolly would have had it weeks ago.
Backstabbing doesnt feel to good does it?
------------------------------------------
Actually, being willing to make a personal loss for the better of others is having a shred of decency. I doubt you would have ever sent it. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, even when I had done some investigating myself, and had found that you were lying to me all along. It isn't backstabbing at all. I was doing the best for the forum. I only wish I had listened to them earlier; Maybe you should have done as well, then you wouldn't have wasted so much money on darklasers. More and more details are coming out about you tyler; someday, you will get your comeuppance

w/e you say bub.
Dark Lasers still makes sales every single day lol, the sites legit, no one can argue that, but when i saw you vote yes, while you were "acting" like a friend, i made my choice. i came to realize you were simply sweet-talking me because i owed ya a little something, im sure the SECOND i shipped that package, you would have turned right around and joined in with the others.
So the money i spend on Dark Lasers is FAR from a waste lol! your just naieve, and simply dont have a clue. do you think LPF members are the ONLY people who know about Dark Lasers? think again lol.
Later mate, dont bother writing back.
enjoy, you made your choice.
------------------------------------------------
I'm now planning to troll his forum a bit if I get some time, and lol at his crappy life. I have a record of all pm's, if anyone needs to see anything, and I can post the "dave" rants if you want.
I know it is a long story, and I don't really care if you don't read it.
