    If you try and post anything reef related on craigslist or anywhere else for that matter be watchful who is replying to these ads. I was contacted by a former member who was banned.

    His e-mails just included pointless questions that were already answered in my ad and then tried low balling me. After a while he just started attacking me and now is threatening to press charges. For what reason...I am totally clueless.

    I just wanted to share my experience so everyone else can watch out.

    Turn around and threaten to press harrasment charges :) and restraining orders haha. Or ask for his address so you and friends can deliver the product "in person" :)

    Just for the record we have yet to ban an actual member of the club. And sadly your not the only one he's been messing with.

    I'd just ignore/avoid the guy all together he's already proven repeatedly that no good comes from dealing with him...

    it would be helpful to post his email address here, so we would know who it is causing the trouble. otherwise, we don't know for whom to "watch out".

    This just all so sad. Is he really this bad or are you guys all picking at him? it just seems like theres 20 people against one on this. and maybe rightly so... i have no idea how the issue with this man became so brutal. I am not on the board enough to know. It is frightning to think he's gone off the deap end.

    It is sad that we had to do somethign like this. But in this case I would say that everything is justified.

    He really is that bad. If you disagree with him he immediately wants to sue you. It is sad. It is amazing how many of us have dealt with him in such a short time.
