Default Word to the wise

Most of us come to a place like this to get help.
Some of the coders that you find here can be more of a hack than you may think. This forum does all that it can to protect you from the hacks, but they can only do so much.

If you are looking for someone to work on your site, do not trust Steve M of vbpatrons.com after he was paid in full, the work was never completed. When he was confronted about loosen a lot of the work that was done. He block all communications including banning my ip from his site. The bad thing is I paid for two sites and I still do not have any working the way it should. No refund was ever made. I now have Brandon of http://forum.vbulletinsetup.com/ working on my site. Brandon has cleaned up most of the crap that was done, and in doing so have found hidden links in my site to Steve M of vbpatrons.com site. When asked Steve M of vbpatrons.com log in and removed files that cause by site to go off line. the support team of www.vbulletin.com could not find any trace of by vb files.

To make a long and painful story short, do not deal with Steve M of vbpatrons.com.
