I'm new to the 944 scene so I can't say I know Wilk, but wouldn't it be odd for someone to hack someone's account, steal their stuff and then sell the very same stuff in the very same place it has always been sold? Something doesn't smell right, but I don't think it's a 3rd party doing this.

he always sold and advertised through his website.
now he's advertising on ebay and this board....


remember... the "steal their stuff" line was a line fed to us by this new 'wilk'... the old wilk never said his house was broken into and robbed...

ok I have to join to Pelican just to ask

I have been trying to get hold of FR for two months now. Filled out the order form a couple times, sent a few emails, and haven't heard anything.
Brought it up on another board and was told his computer was hacked into and the only contact was snail mail. Someone sent me his address so I snail mailed him almost two weeks ago with numerous ways to contact me... haven't heard anything yet.

So FR, if this is you here, you should have received a letter from Mark in Minnesota within the last week or so.

I don't see any reason to think it isn't really him.

He is pi$$ed off and wants out. Obviously.

cj, do you see potential for a scam here though? that's all we're saying...

to me, the real wilk would understand our concerns after being gone for so long... and not tell fast to "****ing mind your own business!"...

ok, i call bull****. they broke into your house to steal 944 eprom software? are you kidding me?!?!? what a load of crap. then, some vectrex ****e!?! WHAT!?! that is some 80's nonsense (game software that went nowhere) that i never heard of, and that is the era i grew up in.

either frwilk has lit his own fuse, or someone else is using his account. frankly, if you look at the recent history, he has been ripping people off. also, he hasn't answered an email i sent him in something like a year. i chalked it up as: he is too busy, or he is an arsehole. show me the police report, wilk, and i'll be at your house with a 6 pack. till then fck off.

you think i am kidding? wilk has yet to answer an email i sent him. further he has yet to come up with a sensible answer to all the crap surrounding the latest brouh-ha-ha...

you seriously expect me to believe that persons, unknown, broke into his home to steal 944 software and chips?!? what a load of crap.

then, i am expected to believe that they knew that he had software for vextrex game consoles? how in the HELL would ANYONE know that?

i am calling you out, FRWilk. i have not been impressed for a long time with your customer service. now THIS!? email me at monad9@comcast.net. i would love to drive out there and find that i am wrong.

nynor, the story about the theives breaking into his home, and the theft of the vextrex game console (or whatever) was given to us by "this" FRWilk... I say "this" by going on the assumption that this is not the real deal...
