he's setup, run and crashed 4 hosts into the ground in the time it took me to set one up :what:

He actually did mention in that post as well that the first person to reply got a free server.
I'm mainly surprised he didn't just use a shill of his own to claim this and prevent from having to follow up on a promise, which he likely didn't fulfill either way. I'd be interested to follow up and see how long that promise really lasted.
It was just a trick to look generous of course, he did it every time he made a post.
It's funny that he even played the "nice used car salesman" role in some of them where "honest ol' Leo asked the big boss if he could give some servers away for free since he's so noble and charitable". I think it's the only way these posts didn't get consistently voted into oblivion. Advertisements are rarely well-received in forums.

aye, he kept using his nut job excuse on scriptfodder that he's doing a "giveaway" to keep the thread up,
I feel bad for the people who actually bought into this hack, it was so fucking obvious that he started making alternate accounts to back himself up on his shitty hosting services.
I wounder what community he's gonna blow up next with his advertising.

I fell for it, but I contacted paypal :)

Hey, do you remember his paypal account email and the billing address on it? If so can you PM it to BDA?
[QUOTE=darksoul69;51037211]Hey, do you remember his paypal account email and the billing address on it? If so can you PM it to BDA?[/QUOTE]
He used a business account so it didnt show address and his email is his support email for intuitive servers.
[QUOTE=GarrysModRP;51037059]Unless you've concluded something different out of this thread than I have, I think that sounds like a good idea.
"Free for life" necessitates the service actually lasts the rest of your life.
And I still can't believe how far back these go. He really, [I]really[/I] likes server hosting, which I have no idea why. What Leo lacks in knowledge and experience, he makes up for in tenacity.
Thank you so much for making my day.[/QUOTE]
I'm going to point out "for life" and "lifetime" actually only mean the lifetime of the product.
he seems to have pulled the website? been down for a while now
[QUOTE=GarrysModRP;51037147]I'd be interested to follow up and see how long that promise really lasted.[/QUOTE]
Actually it is really funny when you follow the thread a little further. The free server giveaway definitely came back to bite him. He avoids all technical questions about the services and keeps repeating that they "offer great prices and support with the same features as the "top notch" hosts". Meanwhile as they begin casting doubt on him the original user who won the server replies:
[QUOTE=Pheron;42018927]I would not recommend this host. My service was terminated without any prior notice, without any chance to back anything up, with no explanation other than it being inactive, which was due to me being on holiday and not having time to set this up. If you truly want customers you're going to have to stop treating them like this.[/QUOTE] Leo then continues by rating his legitimate responses as "Dumb".
[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;51037240]I'm going to point out "for life" and "lifetime" actually only mean the lifetime of the product.[/QUOTE]
You're right. I'm mainly saying it's irrelevant to have a lifetime product that won't last for even a month.
I feel like I could keep talking on this topic for eternity, but there's only so much we can saturate this thread with how ridiculous his antics are. It's really worth seeing what he has been involved it for yourself, but there's hardly enough time in the day to discuss it all. By now I think everybody gets it.
Holy shit BDA you wreck him hard
Considering we know his real name and address and such, I don't see why he's not reported for a bunch of bad business practices that are widely considered illegal, especially impersonating consumers for reviews and false advertising, lying about services that he's making money on. Probably wouldn't result in any jail or prison time or even a fine, but might scare him into actually obeying the law, or at the very least, get his business closed down.
I fucking love seeing FP history get made.

He has been threatened on many separate occasions to have legal action taken against him. Fear of the law has never truly stopped him before. When one site goes down, another follows soon after. Legal action may never happen; the best solution however is to spread awareness and teach users how to identify scams and protect themselves. This applies in general; be cautious when dealing with non-reputable services and do your research with any product. This thread hopefully provides a bigger take-home message than just despising a particular individual.
[QUOTE=Slowboi;51037285]he seems to have pulled the website? been down for a while now[/QUOTE]
That's because he's been exposed like he was last time. He'll resurface again with new names and shit.
[QUOTE=nulls;51036821]
EDIT: Also funny now that I remember this - he wanted to 'borrow' my FP account for advertising IS. Guess I dodged a bullet there, eh?[/QUOTE]
You probably weren't the only one. I wonder if there are any other Leo sleeper accounts hidden here that he has the password for.
So you guys remember how mistforums wasn't run by leo right? Right??

Maybe he and Leo had some sort of promotional deal going on? I don't think Ray was involved with IS. If he was I wasn't made aware nor did he ever talk to me.

In the tutorials section he has raiding gamers as his favorite server on game-tracker. And he has admin access to raiding gamers forums??
So no, pretty sure this is leo.

I really don't think RayChamp is Leo. Ray actually know how to code.
what if I'M leo
[QUOTE=nulls;51037639]I really don't think RayChamp is Leo. Ray actually know how to code.[/QUOTE]
Okay.
Why is every tutorial with raiding gamers and why is raiding gamers on his favorite list for game-tracker?

And for that matter why does he say intuitive servers is "our website" and "we are a brand new host".
If it was an advertisement it wouldn't be phrased that way.
[editline]11th September 2016[/editline]
And [URL="http://i.imgur.com/Pf0fyFX.png"]this is on their[/URL] front page. Care to explain why leo is literally all over that? And why is leo making announcements about new features for mistforums instead of ray?

I don't know man. How would Leo setup 4 server hosts without knowing anything about code or tech/networking? Maybe Leo and Ray are in cahoots, but I'm not buying that they're the same person.

I don't know nulls. Why does leo [URL="http://i.imgur.com/qMDAxCw.jpg"]describe himself as a partner [/URL]at mistforums on his steam profile?
Also found another host leo runs. It is/was called [url]http://eclipseservers.com/[/url]. Relevant images attached.

I don't know dark, why are you acting like you've cracked the 9/11 conspiracy? The launch of IS landed right within the time frame of MistForum's launch which leads me to believe they worked together to get each other more customers (i.e MistForum users get coupons for IS + Ray advertises for RaidingGamers, IS users get coupons for MistForums, etc). Them being the same person really doesn't make sense. Unless Leo's been pulling the long con with his RayChamp identity for over 5 years. I don't want to cause more drama than has been caused already, perhaps you should talk to Ray yourself?
[B]EDIT:[/B] One thing I did notice in one of your pictures however is the profile Merlin. This was an alt that Leo used to "vouch" for IS. It has since been edited to appear like a real person/IS employee. [URL="http://steamcommunity.com/id/intuitivejess/"]Link[/URL]. Very odd.

How about you get ray to post on here.
Look, I get that it could be for advertisement. But the way ray is phrasing his posts - 'we, our' etc isn't the way an advertisement would go down.
Ray claiming raiding gamers is his site is the real kicker for me.
