We aren't here to police the world - just these forums.
Let me say this once more. The people who bought this product did so directly with butters. The sale did not involve TGC in any way except to provide a meeting place. We have no power outside of these forums, so we can't make him refund the money or provide the product.
What we can and will do is make it impossible for him to do so again
via these forums.

Yes, because of the threats he was making regarding the forums. These are not anyone's personal vendetta boards, no matter how justified they think they are. They can't use them for spam, or for advocating piracy. If anyone tries to use them for these reasons, then THEY are breaching the AUP which was agreed to when signing up, and THEY will be penalised.

I have commented on this in the board where it's my responsibility to do so.
Of course, a ban will ensure that he can't come back under the same name, and will most probably ensure that you won't get your refund or product.
A slap won't force him to answer the questions being raised, especially because he isn't posting much at all ATM.
Beyond that, what else do you expect us to do?
I have every sympathy with the people who bought this product (which does include a moderator BTW), but that doesn't justify what I consider an attack on the forums.
Finally, just to make sure everything is in the clear and open, it was I who edited Jo Jo's messages to remove the piracy request - so far in three posts. If I have to do so again, I'm afraid that I will be force to administer a short ban at the very least.
