Amidst all these shenanigans, that's the one question that is intriguing me the most.

If I was in JamesM's or John Hodson's position I would be dubious about imparting information to someone I know nothing about. For all any of us know Russell, you may be in the middle of a lawsuit against Orbit and are trying to get info for your case without playing your full hand.

What I find intriguing is that the only posts made by that member has been about Orbit Media and nothing else.

To join a forum like this just to only post about Orbit Media,is kind of strange to be honest,unless of course " there is more to this than meets the ear"

How can a post staying be proof that someone has been deleting and changing posts?
If it disappeared or changed then that could indicate that someone was deleting or changing posts. But its remaining doesn't show what you accuse us (as forum moderators) of doing

I think what he's trying to say here is that he half expects this post to be deleted; but if it isn't (as it wasn't), he's drawing attention to the fact that (he believes) his posts are going walkabout...

I don't think the 'Amazon policer' was new to him either. I've known people complain about DDHE, Pickwick (who did apologise for The Runaway Bus), Network and others but rarely do you get an overzealous defence of trashy transfers.

I deleted one of Russell's posts as it was bound to spark a colourful response, and one of John's where he just entered *ignore*.

It still gets my vote for most entertaining/peculiar thread of the month so far...

It's when they start going round in circles that it's time to call time out as it just descends into traded insults.

Because the first draft could have been seen as needlessly inflammatory. If you were so minded to believe so, and /or the reader was a humourless twonk.

He should have just said so then. The logic was screwy for that to work as a test of anyone changing or deleting his posts.

Wow what a post this thread ranks below Orbit Media for Orbit Media in google!

I emailed orbit media about this thread, and their reply was "we have removed twinky from our catalogue because the quality was so bad"....

This is I think after they have read this thread, and they have made no attempt to come on here and deny the allegations....

I really think that we should persue this, if they are selling illegal copies they should be reported.

John you mentioned their Sherlock holmes dvds are bootlegs, doesnt Universal have the copyright to some of those films?

I personally think they look very suspect.

This is a bit OCD Russell/Bonger. Why not fess up as to your involvement with Orbit and simply state your case?
