Only those that have the fortitude to take the sh!t kicking have hung on long enough to have everyone else clue in.
Kudos to Rob.

The false credibility that he surrounded himself with made it difficult.

The only remaining credibility he has is his ownership of SOS and his current enablers.

They dont get it yet.

I'm sure the "server logs" would show that the only person left with Admin privileges changed that username in the time since 4/10/10. The "lady" account was originally a test account Heather set up which is why it had no activity after she was shown the door by Chris Sunkin. So much for that "Smoking Gun"....

Who changed that account from SpeedDiva to Lady? I thought the door was always open for me at SO - or so I was told.... :grinser010:

For me it was 2 things, first I really never paid much attention to Chris Sunkin the OSO poster, when I look back on his posts they were in places I didn't look like the Apache threads, and the motorcycle stuff. Before I met him in person he explained he was coming down to see his old friend Craig, and spend some time on his boat, since Craig and I were tight I gave him instant credibility. It was only after all this stuff came to our attention that Craig and I talked and realized we met him for the first time on the same day and he had said to Craig he was coming to see his old friend, Ted. And frankly so much of what is false is insignificant, no reason anyone would even think to lie about them, but helpful to build an image.

At first they took him at his word but over time they began to piece it together.

As someone else pointed out, what guy claims to own a 50 Sea Ray, 41 Apache, and a Top Gun all at the same but is always bummnig rides at poker runs instead of running one of his own rigs. It makes no sense - unless you are Chris Sunkin that is.

Good Point!! But you would think someone would have caught on sooner!!

Here's the thing. Everyone...and I mean everyone has a life-long boating friend or at least someone who has seen them in a boat. For a guy from Ohio (and has lived there for at least 20 years) to have had all of these boats, someone must have seen him from your circle of friends. Right??

He was good with the credibility building and dropping names. When someone tells me that they have been close friends with Tony and Elizabeth and Barb and Robster, I didn't even think to contact them and check. I guess that I should have!! :drink: I now know that he met Barb and Robster just a month or two before I met him. Also, the first day that I met him, I had some friends who were gonna help me with pace boat duties for the Cambridge, MD race. Well, they decided that they would rather stay on the dock and drink. No problem, there is chris sunkin standing there on the dock with his life jacket. I had met him 10 minutes before. He comes out on my boat, helped me and then my boat wouldn't start on one engine. Before the hatch was all the way open, he's in the bilge and finds a loose wire on my neutral safety switch within two minutes. He does know something about boats, I thought that he was a really nice guy and I defended him big time when all the allegations broke. He asked me if was interested in being a part of his new website. I told him that I would be happy to be a mod or something. A month later when the website goes live, I'm the administartor and had no idea what I got myself into! LOL

I was wrong. I will apologise to Rob (OSD) when I see him in person this summer.

How to Avoid Getting Ripped-Off at the Cybermarket

by Chris Sunkin

http://www.mccookracing.com/articles...oidRipoffs.htm

I definately found this part interesting

Fifth- know the law. A bit of research on State-level laws can be very helpful. A few years back, I got clipped for about a grand from a guy I knew in Connecticut. He was an acquaintance and a business associate. I made the mistake of confusing friendliness for friendship. Familiarity can be dangerous. Anyway, Mr. Deadbeat was slow to send a check and when it did come, it bounced. I called him and he ducked me for a bit but I finally caught him. More excuses and a sob story. I hung up and called the local police station. Amazingly, they were happy to help. The faxed a form and I filled it out, had it notarized and sent it back. They went right out and hooked him. About 3 hours later, I got a call from Mr. Deadbeat's wife begging me to drop the charge and have her husband released from custody. Apparently Connecticut has some very strict check bouncing laws. Wife managed to make it to Western Union and hubby was home for dinner. It's funny how handcuffs and bars eliminate obstacles to locating funds. I know Florida is that same way.

Guess Chris is lucky the childrens' charity wasn't in Connecticut huh?

I've never seen him in his own boat. But I was wondering how all the lies got passed most of us!! There seem to be so many of them. So it doesn't happen again.

I remember early on wondering who this guy was and where he came from - like out of nowhere. Once he bumped into a few of us and established credibility, as illustrated in the previous posts, the warning flags all went back down.

It's still happing right now. Boat manufactures are still posting on his site, engines builders are still posting on his site, some of the best known poker runners... It blows me away that these people would want to be associated with that clown.

And that's what makes this even more laughable. If one is going to concoct an avenue of blame to mitigate the incertitude of his overt dissimulation, via the manufacture of a ridiculous story like this one, it's advisable to at least go back and make certain you also alter the last log-in time. Ergo, It will no longer necessary to manufacture any "logs." The troubles he's been having are not of a technical complexion, but rather of a personnel nature, and are yet not too dissimilar from the issues we're having in the gulf at the moment.

Turns out, Nick hid Heather's "Speeddiva" old admin account under a fake name of "Lady" on March 5th. That's a full month before your fabricated scandal. On March 21st, 10 days before your "scandal", Nick gave the account the fullest permission he was capable of. That's how you and your group were able to go in and see everything in all the private work areas.

Five minutes of searching and I found the picture of this 1981 440 Maico. Hmmm....

http://www.maicomadness.com/listpics.htm




Scroll down to:

81 490 Owned by Randy Rector (don't miss this one)

Why would Randy Rector steal chris sunkin's picture??????? I would imagine that most of the other pictures of the bikes were someone elses pictures as well.... Or maybe Mr. Honesty posted that picture of someone elses bike by accident. Maybe this Randy Rector fellow stole sunkins picture??? Who knows. Unphuckingbelievable

ALERT THE FBI!!!! :drink:

Maybe a contest would be a good idea to find all of the bikes posted by Mr. Honesty???



Look folks. This has gone on long enough. I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the guy (just a little bit). I said that I was staying out of it from the get go. I have nothing to prove to anyone. I knew that this guy had trouble telling the truth. However, I keep getting phone calls and emails from people who I have known for years (they've actually seen my boats) :rolleyes: with info that is being spread out there about me. Do I care? Not really, but when BS is said about me, I don't like it one bit and I will defend myself.

Actually they are both red dirtbikes but
different pipe, different swingarms, differnt shocks, different cylinder, different tank, different plastics, different yard and house, they are both Maico's I do have to give you that much.... randy's bike is a nice restore
