you guys are not alone. I havent seen my shoulder or my belt peices either, I sent him my money in like june I think I got my ammo boxes but not the rest. I pm'ed him like 2 months ago he responded and told me he had not forgoten but he said nothing of any difficulties he was haveing and that was the last I heard from him and there couldnt be any delays on delivery because we live like 3 to 4 hours away from each other in the same state of Idaho. If anybody finds anything out please please let me know what the heck is going on

If I don't here anything from him by the end of this weekend I am going to post in the public forum over at CT.net.......I hate to do it but since a few of us GM's haven't seen items we ordered from him would bet there are others over there as well.

Taking in consideration Yougling's age, a whole host of the things could be happening with him. I have an idea that I will discuss with Command Staff in the meantime. Hopefully he will check in soon, so we can all rest easy.

Well know that we are done bashing my incapable self and irresponsible person, I am ready to explain. Now please understand right know that this is a total heartfelt apology. I can understand completely why all of you would be really mad at me. I can understand why a lot of you are not liking me right now. So let me say I am very sorry.
Now as you all know I have not been on either ct.n or any other forum for a long time. This is because I have been in the hospital and every other health clinic immaginable. I had some rare disease and I was extremely sick, but I am not going to go into that.
Now that I am done explaining let me tell you what I am going to do. Please send me a PM with every peice that you need from me. I will reply and tell you wether that peice or peices can be made in the harsh cold temperatures we are having in Idaho (20 below and such). If they can I will work hard to finish them if they can't I will inform you of when they will be able to be worked on.
Now thanks for listening. I have one last favor to ask if it is not too much. SgtCarida would you please remove all the posts on CT.N and other forums and explain what has happened. If not I am fine with that but I am sure the people in charge at CT.N will remove them for me.
Thanks, Preston

So glad to see you back, Preston. I thought you had taken the money and ran, but I'd like to believe I was wrong. You are actually recovered from whatever crazy disease you had, right?

Welcome back Youngling. As I said in my email today, I understand your plight. I do not have anything that I ordered, I was just trying to help out some of the guys who are waiting for stuff. Let's hope that the doctors kicked that disease's lily white a** and that it's gone and that you are back for good. Again, welcome back.

Thanks, Preston Preston, We don't know each other on a personal level, but I am glad to hear that you are doing better none-the-less. With that said, I don't think you understand the seriousness of what has happened or level or personal responsibility you need to take for your actions. I would rather not sound like I am lecturing you, but I do believe that's how it's going to come out. In the land of costuming, we take some pretty big risks in sending strangers money in hopes of getting something in return. You broke that trust by not fulfilling your end of the bargain and disappearing, regardless of the circumstances. It is unfortunate what has happened to you and I wish you well. However, it is your responsibility to work hard to regain the trust people have lost in you. You must be the man to repair the broken bridges. No one should be apologizing but yourself. You've got alot of work to do, brother. I hope you are able to salvage your reputation.

I agree with the General on this one. I don't want to nag, but if you had let us know when things first started going down, we could have sat back and waited patiently with at least some understanding. Most likely things would not be where they are now. Just trying to help here.

I emailed Mr. Laws around Thanksgiving requesting armor, then had a friend of theirs email him for me. Still nothing. I ended up getting lucky enough to snag one of his chest pieces from a guy at CTN, but his communication was very poor.
Granted, if he has some personal things going on then that comes first. But, his friends didn't seem to know of anything. *shrug*

If I had been in any condition to even be able to sit up in bed I most certainly would have told you all. As this was not the case I would like but do not expect an apology. It is allright if you feel you do not need to I will not expect anything but how nice those words would be to me I cannot say. Thanks, Preston P.S. Please people who still have orders send me a PM.

Preston,
When I first posted I didn't realize that you were back.
First I would like to say that I am glad to see you back and stepping up to do what is right and correct what is wrong. I am sorry to hear that you have had a personal health problem and I am very sorry for that and hope that you are feeling better.
Second I can now understand what has happened for our transaction but I also see some "history" that should be addressed as well. I am not in the position to "remove" posts that relate to our transaction because they were factual when they were made. I sent you money for items that weren't delieved and there was no response from you. I agree with General Fidelis that you now have to earn our trust back in the Community.
As far as you wanting to fulfill orders I am not sure I really need you to fulfill mine. I have already purchased knees and have material to make my shoulder bells. I would still love to have your shoulder bells but don't need the knees. So with that said would you be willing to make me two sets of shoulders OR refund me the difference?

You still want shoulders but you want me to refund you the money for the knees? Is that correct?
But let me get this right On CT.N I am now the worst person that ever stepped foot in that forum because I was in the intensive care unit for over a month?!
Please understand I am not mad and I will do what I have to but atleast to me it seems a little unfair.
