I don't think that it is hate, just highly skeptical people, given what has happened in the industry in the past.

I just find it disturbing that my neutral posts are arbitrarily deleted.

what I find strange, is that 2 questions asked numerous times, goes unanswered, (or maybe I missed the answer) that will not, have any effect in the investigation.

Insurance ?
alarm ?

either way, thieves are one of the lowest of people, hope it all works out.

Thank you. There is an investigation and we simply asked for help which again we have gotten. I am unsure why here this has become a big fuss. This is a forum, with rules that EVERYONE agrees to abide by when we all hit "agreed". We do not have to answer anyone, no one here is part of the investigation. We volunteered the information we felt will help.

We allowed dozens members of this forum into our "home" and treated them out of respect and to support the Infiniti G37 community. Why on earth would we do that only to commit insurance fraud as we were accused? Does it make any sense for us to try to attract "publicity" when we only mentioned this on not even half the forums we actively sponsor and regional forums with far less traffic then the main forum? We haven't even bumped the threads and its only been posted once on our Facebook page.

The Admins/Mods acted accordingly in my opinion and in retaliation we have people making the sigs below.

$5000 Cash reward for anyone that can lead to an arrest. Vossen Warehouse break-in

Here is another

and another

Look if you don't like Vossen, hate Vossen, that is perfectly fine. To act like Matlock and make claims completely out of line for a paying vendor meant the Admins/mods had to act and they did swiftly and appropriately.

Enjoy your cute signatures as I will not ask to have them removed.

Prices will remain the same and we never took time off as not to impact the customer and deliveries. Thank you for the compliments.

You say this like we are the only forum saying any of this stuff...

Oh please. Goggle "Vossen Robbed" and you get a plethora of people saying the same thing most of us have already said.

Do I really need to go on your facebook page and take some screen shots of what everyone is saying?

What did you expect when you posted this here? People not to act like Matlock? A pity party? What was your ultimate goal?

You're right. This IS a forum. A PUBLIC forum. Which means people have a right to their own opinion.



If they were stolen I wish you guys all the best in finding them. Truly I do.

But don't get mad at people for having an opinion.

Rarely do I engage in personal confrontations online as the company rarely wins but I will make this exception.

You have been warned, posts deleted and you still come back to post. You have yet to post anything resembling help. Instead you are here to stir the pot and crap on us for whatever reasons. I am unsure why you dislike us so much and I don't care why and I am not going to convince you to change your mind. What I do not appreciate is you continuing to come into Vossen related threads all over this forum (and others) to TROLL. Now you have all your new signatures showing tremendous maturity because you don't understand the concept that this is NOT A PUBLIC FORUM this is NOT A PUBLIC PARK and YOUR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS ARE NOT VIOLATED.

This is a PRIVATE FORUM owned by a COMPANY with RULES that you AGREED to when you SIGNED UP TO JOIN. Rules ENFORCED by moderators and Admins. This is THEIR PLACE. If they decide to ban me right now that is their call. If they want to paint this forum pink that is their call. If they want everyone here to use your new signature that is their call.

MyG37 - FAQ: Myg37.com

You are now harassing a paying vendor.

10.) HARASSMENT/FLAMING
Any harassment of other members will not be tolerated. Name calling, picking fights, etc. Do not make posts that incite arguments, or any post that turns to arguments and flame wars, etc. Posts of this nature will not be tolerated and can result in the immediate closing or deletion or editing of the post and the banishment of the posting members account. Any insults or harassments towards staff members will result in instant banishment.

You are rehashing

15.) REHASHING
When a post is locked or deleted or when member account is suspended and/or banned, it is for a justified reason. Do NOT make another post in continuation of the locked/deleted posts or your account is subject to being banned. Do NOT make a new post demanding explanation of why a post was locked or deleted. If you would like explanation of a closed or deleted post, PM one of the moderators.

Maybe you need to read the fine print

If you receive an e-mail/private message from a "Moderator" addressing behavioral issues please don't take it as a personal attack. The Staff of MyG37.COM are here to assist with making this site run smoothly and this means from time to time Staff may offer corrective suggestions and/or advice.

Please feel free to report any posts that you feel are in violation of the terms set forth. Use the "Report this Post to a Moderator" method or a moderator you see online. Either way is acceptable and appreciated.

This is the last and final word on this. If you have information to help Vossen, please do the right thing and contact them. If you have BS and unfounded baseless accusations, do not post them here. You will be banned by me. There is a time and a place for everything and a few of you are like spoiled children who haven't ever been taught the difference between playtime and real life. I have zero tolerance for any more of this BS. Try me. I dare anyone to post ANYTHING at all that I deem inappropriate here. I will ban you. If you don't know what I may or may not deem inappropriate and wonder if your post might be considered as such, you better back away from the keyboard.

This is NOT a public forum. It's privately owned by a company. It is not owned by a few vocal members who are grossly and woefully ignorant if they believe that they are allowed to say or do anything they like. There are rules. And there is common decency and respect for everyone. If you can't comply with that, get out.

This is the end. Also the next post complaining or whining about staff will also get banned. Because I said so.

Some of you get a bit rowdy in the useless thread and can't seem to help yourself from spilling it over outside of there. I wouldn't advise anyone to make that mistake again. It will cost the next clown who does.

Maybe I somehow wasn't clear enough when I said that this crap ends right now. Or maybe some just didn't believe me. Believe me now? Who's next?

Yes, I was there that day. Very sad to see this happen. Regardless if you own vossen wheels, hate vossen, etc. The crew at Vossen: Jav, Mike, Diego, and everyone else are a good group of guys and have been overly generous and helpful towards myself, the florida g club, sfl g club, and everyone else in the g community. Like I said regardless if you like them or not, show some respect and support.
