GIZMO his supporters and I have had many run in here in the past.
Eventually, we put it behind us and moved on.
With all the disagreements and online arguments we had, this is really unexpected. You would think that no matter the disagreements, active and known members should still maintain a level of integrity and trust with services offered.
It doesn’t matter if this happened 5 years ago or 5 days ago. It is inexcusable and indefensible.

Good morning gents, just for full transparency I would like to clarify the timeline on the incidents.
The repairs done to Moosa's M3 was in March 2013 as he made a rave thread about me repairing a couple of things: https://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=43028
The 318is oxygen sensor was in Feb 2014 as Moosa had made a thread about that too: https://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=54067
Make of it what you will.
Leaving the forum in 2017 gave me clarity to recognize my potential and I have flourished in the last 3years, I have shifted from being purely customer supported to buying-restoring-selling E46s for myself. I was even planning a youtube build series to test the waters but perhaps returning to the forum 3 months ago was a mistake knowing I would be returning to SJWs, forum trolls and those who had blackmailed me years ago. In order to move forward you have to face your past, I have done that, I have made wrong decisions for the right reasons and didn't stop to think of the consequences. I am just a human being after all, I am prone to mistakes and errors in judgement like alot of you are displaying now.
However I will not let my mistakes define me, I take them as life lessons and move on a wiser man. You only have to be blackmailed once to learn how to never get yourself in that position again. Trust has been lost but it will be regained, this will only spur me on to work even harder and dial every build to 11 to prove what Im really capable of when Im not under someone's thumb or being held back by my past.
In closing, I would like to thank Kevalen, Charles, Yuben and whoever else vouched for my return to the forum, had I alerted you to the skeleton in my closet we wouldn't be in this fiasco we are now. I just want to thank you for believing in me and affording me the opportunity to give the forum one last go, I won't forget it. To all those fanatics who have stood by me through this and for the overwhelming whatsapp support I sincerely appreciate it and thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I will continue to do what I love and no-one can ever try steal my passion again!
Thank you all
Warren

What a fekking joke! Dude literally did something illegal, ADMITTED IT, and still gets his penis sucked by people in charge. AMAZING!
The real question is: is he a sorcerer or does he have secret nude pics of all the admins.

This just shows how the forum is more worried about traffic than having good, trust worthy people on a platform to support its members

SJWs / forum trolls / evil marxists / anyone else you want to blame didn't steal a diff.
You did. You are the *exact* type of mechanic people complain about when they get ripped off.
The mental gymnastics you're going through to somehow paint yourself as a *victim* is insane.
Also, a YouTube series. lol. just LOL

So just to make it clear. You, Warren are by your own admission a thief. You can not deny that or swing it any other way so dont even try.
THEN. THEN to make things better. The forum admin team here are supporting you?!?! Admins and Mods by allowing him to continue to be active on this platform you are CONDONING his actions. Basically saying ag shame man you got caught stealing but its okay we still love you?
What the F!$%^ man thats ridiculous.
I wonder how the likes of Auto Bavaria Midrand/BMW South Africa must feel about being a part of a platform that publicly supports criminals.
Deny it all you want admin, thats how it looks.

I agree, they aren't going to be impressed if they ever see or hear about this.
I think @"Gizmo" explained just fine what happened and IMHO to open up about something like is a big thing the first time. With the exception of his outburst to @"Peter@AEW" that started this whole thing, he has been the more mature person here.
What I find interesting, is that most of you forget that others on this forum has been called out for the same mistake (swopping parts) and only because in that case it was just a he says vs she says, it was seen as ok.
I will be the minority and say, I think he deserves a chance for the mistake, but I would like to see him grow and also avoid outbursts even on whatsapp or in person in both typing and verbal forms. Its definitely one of Gizmo's weaknesses that he can improve on. I am sure he already figured out that was a bad move.
