NOTE TO MODERATORS: CHECK WITH BIG A, I HAVE HIS PERSONAL APPROVAL ON THIS POST . . . DO NOT DELETE . . . REPEAT: PLEASE DO NOT DELETE

* * * * *

as of today, july 23rd, i'm officially back in business.

the process of getting back into it took several months longer than expected and met with some unforseen roadblocks.

many will have questions at this point but i'd rather not leave a 10-page post, so i will be brief here; a couple of further posts down the line will probably also be written, and, since my email addy should appear here, anyone can email me about anything. but for now:

- i have Big A's approval to post
- i intend to contact the moderators shortly, have not had time to do so yet
- for those who don't know me, i was in business from 1998 to early 2002
- i've been out of it since then; was planning on getting back in since earlier this year as we wanted certain events to transpire before doing so things didn't pan out that way so we're gonna do it the other way around.

therefore:

- i'm back in biz as of TODAY, JULY 23rd, with very strong backing
- several people including board moderators to customers will be getting email from me ( some will be getting more :-> )
- anyone wanting to talk to me can use the email address which should appear here.

that's all for now . . . like i said i don't want this msg to turn into a novel . . . would just like to say hello to any of my old buds who may be reading this . . . email me . . . if you don't know me you can, at least for now, email me as well.

It's the real MK.

I must say it is good to see an old friend. MK I'm not sure what was playing out the last few months but it's good to see that you are around. I have sent a few e-mails a while back but you musta been busy.

Bro's... A lot of happenstance went down with this bro in the past and I was involved. I must say that the man contacted me very quickly when the rumors started flying, headed them off and indeed informed me that I lost money and there was nothing he could do to get it back. Very honest and upfront I must say even if it was bad news. But there's more... He later rewarded my trust with a HUGE discount and extra cookies to boot. I ordered several decent sized cookie orders and with one exception was always happy. I guess my point is, yes, shit happened... but I was always happy with the way MK treated me even in bad times. I still don't know the whole skinny on the issue that blew a REALLY good thing away for awhile, and I don't really care... All I know is if I can have it back the way it was I will be elated.

I'm not bumping, advocating or referring or anything... just relating my experience (that's my disclaimer) -/

I was out a big order.($2500)..MK got in touch with me a few months ago and said he was trying to come back and wanted to take care of what he owed me...He has been in constant contact since, updates me almost weekly. I do think that he is doing the right things and expect MK to return my complete order>

RIP STK

Not saying anyhting bad about MK, had always been fair to me....but Big A bumped and supported Baphomet and he said the supposed 10 people out of there stuff would receive...never heard anything since...maybe I'm alittle gun shy of Big A's support, but I have known MK to be standup and tries to make things right.

Good luck MK.

Well, everyone that was outstanding would have been fixed if Baph would have listened to me. But he chose to do things himself, and we all know the result. I can support and help someone to do things right, but whether they choose to listen, that's not in my power.

artemis, you got some balls man..
Im surprised to see him go so easy on you.
point taken, but at the same time remember who OWNS this board and please be respectfull. bigA must had his
prozac today,lol he keeps this going for us free of charge
with only a few sponsers, for that alone I thank him not to
mention everything else hes done for me an the others here.
Baphomet is Baphomet same as ART just shit on me... read my post lets talk about source checks when you get a few xtra mins.
Other then that i appreciate an respect your opinions, peace

|--[\\\\]>--------- As far as Baph goes, i dont see any of this falling on BIgA...he can not control the actions of s'one else...he tried to help Baph and Baph decided not to listen so there you go, poor decision making and it cost him....but BigA's reputation on source backing should NOT be tarnished

artemis · #10 (**permalink**) 07-24-2003, 07:24 PM

I meant no disrespect to Big A. I was just hoping to point out that despite having someone's backing, it is ultimately up to the source to make good on the orders. Big A can't stand over people's shoulders and say do this or that or else...it just don't work that way.

Big A has always been fair to me also, I have alot of respect for him and he provides 2 excellent boards with probably the best info on the net. I do apologize to Big A for coming off disrespectful towards him....he did try his best in the Baph situation and it is in the end Baph's and only Baph's responsibility to make good and Big A was only trying to help the one's who lost out..

judas stone · #11 (**permalink**) 07-25-2003, 12:28 AM

cant blame a mod if someone turns bad. theres no doubt in my mind Big_A did all he could.

artemis · #12 (**permalink**) 07-25-2003, 01:19 AM

I know he did....just wish things would have had a happier ending, lol!!

mangler65 · #13 (**permalink**) 07-25-2003, 03:49 AM

The easiest thing that MK could have done was to just change his email and start a new identity. Since he didn't take the easy way out, it's plain to see that he is an honest guy doing the best he can in a cutthroat underground business.

rather than post individual replies i'd like to write this one post that covers most of what's been posted here and over at Professional Muscle since July 23rd.

yes, right before i stopped working about 27 people lost money.

before that, in a roughly 3.5 year period, well over 2000 orders were received and *no one* lost money. how quickly some forget. shit happens people . . . the few who lost didn't do so out of ill-will on my part. i'm not gonna name names, but anyone that's been around for years knows how many sources have disappeared and never returned with customer money.

the reason i was on top all those years was one word: integrity. this is why i've returned as myself, not under an alias, and why i've made it clear to certain key people that i want their assistance in helping me compensate the few who lost at the end. to that end, my connections are absolutely rock-solid and the operation is as safe as can be.

one-week turnaround is great, but let's see how long anyone offering it will last. let's see anyone doing that last . . . safely . . . for years. having said that, i do wish anyone considering themselves my competition safety and good luck. feel free to email me, if you are so inclined.

finally, my thx go out to everyone who is supporting me . . . the moderators and customers in this thread, etc . . . much appreciated my friends. special thx to Big A and bench720 =)

sorry dudes, i just realized what "pm" means. i've been away from the boards for . . . uh, 150 years =) .

having said that, i would *MUCH* rather people email me at my business address rather than use pm.

Michael King · #17 (**permalink**) 08-02-2003, 05:32 AM

would like to address an issue that's come up.

i was never a very public source in years past, posting on average once a month. when i registered to the board i left my email address in my profile. i assume this means people have access to it. i also left it in one of my posts on the 24th. if you have a question i'd rather you email me rather than post it. business like this is best conducted in private . . . such safety concerns are the main reason i never had a single brush with the law.

i will, at the current time, check back once a week or so . . . and even then i may choose to reply to the poster in person rather than on the board. in the meantime if you're serious and need to talk to me USE MY EMAIL ADDRESS, THAT'S WHAT IT'S THERE FOR! if you won't, it means you just like to be a shit disturber and i won't waste my time with you ( note: this last is not addressed to anyone specific in this thread ).

thx . . .

Wishing nothing but the best for MK, I know some bros have bad things to say about MK, but he never did me wrong!

Mr.Huge · #19 (**permalink**) 08-06-2003, 12:28 AM

MK has always been straight with me. I know there were problems in the past with others but as far as him be straight forward with me personally Ill give him the benefit of the doubt. Drop me a line buddy its been a while.

astrolifter · #20 (**permalink**) 08-08-2003, 08:26 PM

I had several orders with him in the past, and all went good. I'd be willing to try him again, depending on the minimum.

ryubrir · #21 (**permalink**) 08-09-2003, 10:56 PM
