I didnt know Wrestlingfigs.com was a place where people ran businesses? I stand corrected. Wouldnt want to hurt anyones side businees, I would much rather see kids get ripped off of their hard earned money by some unscrupulous business man. And before we get out of hand I dont think this thread should apply to everyone on here, I dealt with other customizers on here and they were stellar and professional. One bad apple spoils the bunch I guess. If you tell, say Magnum T.A. that someone is making customs of him and selling them and he doesn't get any money. He's gonna go after that one guy, absolutely. You also have to think that after that, he's gonna search Ebay and anyone selling figures with his likeness, he's going to go after them too. Suddenly, people are "scared" to make figures of their favorite people because of the risk of "being sued" or whatever it may be. People stop making customs, thus killing the customs "business". That's what I meant by killing the customs business.

I know the guy IRL, and am the reason he started customizing, and the reason he found this place. Not only has he been kicked off here multiple times, he's been kicked off ebay a ton of times, even before he was doing customs and just selling tapes. He seems to go through stages where he's really professional and quickly gets everything out, then he just quits.
Sad thing too, he could have been a fairly successful wrestler or customizer, or any number of things, but his attitude is horrible. It always made me mad because he was making far more off customs than I was, while he didn't care at all about the art of it.
Sorry to hear about him breaking contact with you. I haven't talked to him in years and really can't tell you what the hold up is, unless it's the same type of thing as it used to be.

You know when Gate wants to rant for oh I dont know three or four pages no one balks at him, but anytime the thread is about him in a negative light someone always asks is this the right place for it. I'll say yes it is. When him and beyondo went on for three pages about the custom video deal and they pronounced his name wrong I didnt see anyone ask Gate if this was the right place for it. Funny how some people stick together around here. I think its ridiculous that this many people have a problem with him. It seems like almost everyone who deals with him gets jerked around one way or another. I also have to say I love seeing all the customs on here and everytime he signs on its a constant fight or bickerfest but the four or five friends he has on here say nothing about him spamming or trolling. I dont come on here to see someone make fun of anothers custom work or put it down when maybe that person was just trying to have fun in making said custom. He should apply some of his witty banter to his absolute crap promos I seen of him on youtube as Trent Wylde. Good lord he sucks!

One bad apple spoils the bunch I guess. Not at all. Just because I got ripped off by one terrible customiser doesnt put me off everyone. There are people here who work hard making customs for people and I couldnt ever be discouraged from using them because of 'one bad apple'

Ironically, when he first came to WFigs, he was made fun of constantly for a variety of reasons. Eventually it stopped and then his ego got out of control.

Ironically, when he first came to WFigs, he was made fun of constantly for a variety of reasons. Eventually it stopped and then his ego got out of control. i could give two shits who you bitch about but the keep it off the main board. Gate is a friend, but i don't care if you don't like him and want to rant about it, but by the rules the main board is for posting work not crying about Gate. I've mentioned many times in the chat thread when it's brought up that Gate is a dick and the guy is my friend. Talking openly about getting screwed over on a deal is one thing but talking crapabout a guys actual life and career is really in poor taste and irrelevant to what your complaining about. It's really easy to make fun of a guy who works indies, but at least those guys have the balls to go out there and try to live the dream of the wrestling fans, how many of us can say we've done that. Also i'm pretty sure the talk about Beyondo's name being wrong on the video was actually in the thread about the video, not pushing down people's work on the board.

Titantrap: Gold Club VeteranMaybe you are right about the main boards not being the place to have a bitch thread, not entirely sure where the correct place is tho. However I think this thread is important because if you helps stop more people getting f&*ked over by him then thats only good. Anyways, I tend to disagree with you about it being wrong to mention personal stuff about iknowshannonmoore. IMO he deserves everything including the kitchen sink. If you are prepared to basically steal peoples money then you deserve all the grief in the world. I think where this thread has gone slightly wrong is people losing sight of what this thread was intially about. The title is iknowshannonmoore customs. Why other customizers or royalities for the wrestlers got mentioned I'm not sure. One guy expressed his concern and then some of us shared our experiences with him, there was a chance for all that have had good experiences to share there thoughts but the fact that not many did, shows me what people think of the guy. It is pretty sad that he has even f&*ked over people that he has previously been good too. What the guy is doing is a criminal offense and Im sorry but when you cross the line like he has no part of you is untouchable for criticism. He needs to be stopped and if by bitching and moaning in a thread about him helps that then I say fair game. Lastly, I think that all those that posted off topic comments in thread go back and remove them. The reputations of all the great customizers on here should not be tainted due to one guy.

Add me to the list of those ripped-off by iknowshannonmoore. He used the ol' "I shipped your custom, I guess it just got lost in the mail" excuse on me. After claiming to have sent the SAME custom a second time, he tried the "how do I know you're not the one ripping ME off" excuse.
The guy is an absolute piece of human-garbage! A real scumbag. The lowest of the low.I think you get the idea. Karma is a bitch.
STAY AWAY!

Thanks for proving my point Titantrap. I cant say I ever seen you correct or chime in when Gate was taking up around three pages of fighting, belittling someone or generally being a douche on the main board. I always see you run to his defense though. I also never seen you judge his 'taste' level either. And that isnt a knock on you as I have dealt with you before and had no problems, its just an observation from a bystander.

Remember a couple weeks ago when C.M Showstopper wanted to start up some kind of new tournament and how 'offended' you were because he supposedly stepped on your toes. I seem to remember a couple guys who were calling him names like 'stalker' because I guess he gets a lot of autographs, I dont know maybe its his thing. Yet I didnt see you rush to his defense about 'how we shouldnt make fun of people living their dreams out' in fact I didnt see you ever run to anybody else's defense when he was personally attacking someone and trust me he did it alot. I really dont want this to turn into an argument between you and me, christ this isnt even my thread. I dealt with my problems with him but it seems his name keeps coming up all the time. In my opinion he gets what he deserves and nobody should stick up for him. If you got screwed in some deal you'd be on here too complaining.

I had issues with Gate City Sinner, too. He basically ripped me off as he sent me crapy half-done customs. Moreover he wrote kind Pms like "I hope you'll die"....
DON'T MAKE DEALS WITH HIM!
