Phidias,

There were many negative cautionary posts here, mostly by Hansix and his buddy (I can't remember his name.) 

I'm not sure if those posts are still stored on Agoracom.

If not, it may be because, after years of contributions to this forum, they were banned by Agoracom and, their posts may have been deleted.

I'm not exactly sure why Agoracom banned them. But, I remember many on this forum found their posts to be personally insulting and offensive.
