I've found a lot of other time he did this on R/C forums.

Thanks for the headsup.

Now, back to that suspicious Alex... Scotty, you could be right... Just because he scammed Matt's IP address, can we really trust him? I think we should demand DNA! :lol:

Besides, sweeps is the name I've gone by on almost every forum I've ever been on. It's my nick for about 12 years now. Look around on MySpace, and you'll see it there too.

I didn't think I had any accounts on RoboSavvy... Are you sure you're not talking about Dave? Dave just told me he has an account here that somethign like dave[tr].

:lol:

I think it was "alex[tr]". I'm kind of suspicious of you now. Please reply and prove you are not some body else. Limor if you read this PM me with "sweeps" IP, thanks. (I know Alex's IP so I'll check it out)
