the truth is none of know why kc got pulled,rumours of technical difficulties during the first few days quickly gave way to the realisation that kc was not coming back
the only person who knows why kc got pulled is tone and no one is in contact with him,it will remain a great mystery and a god damn pain in the **** rewriting the monitor repair guides :evil:

Trust me.. i have asked Tone a million times what happened and why it happened.. he is a man of little words in time likes these.. I've yet to have a straight answer from him.. all i KNOW is it was hacked.. he took it down.. and just didnt want to put it back up.. honestly that is all i know.

Well i suppose thats that then, im not having a go btw just thought it was strange that people keep saying they were in touch with him yet still no explantion was given, anyway you have cleared that up now :D

Tone seemed a good lad and did a great service really running KC but its a bit of a poor way to go out though especially when people have put so much of their free time into KC and made it what it was really. I dont think its fair to those people who put so much in to be fobbed off so cheaply no matter if the site got hacked or not, these people did nothing wrong so why punish them especially Grantspain which KC were very lucky to have BTW. I am only saying this as people seem to be treading on egg shells over this its as if people are affraid to speak their mind, which is ridiculous really.

O well life goes on thats the beauty of the internet, youve done a top job as usual BTW guys keep up the good work :D

we all did !!!!!!

i was at KC the mo the doors opened, trust me you will never know as to why, nor the real reason, just like ill never understand as to why i got banned for posting at WPG, i mean i wasn't spending much time at that point in my life in KC as i was having personal probs here at home, but i found my self banned, then i found out darn and meg to and vib was too, some thanks they got EH, they kept KC running all the time tone was away, what thanks did they get.

they got a big fat **** ***

wheres the thanks, i mean i wasn't no techi chappie, but i did spend my time in there and had the highest post count even upto it going down, that was some work i can tell you, it was nearly all banter but atleast i posted and kept the place buzzing.

what thanks did i get, i got banned, my MSN account hacked, ebay hacked, passwords changed over at arcadefevers place and wpg all in one day, oh and not to mention i even bidded on porn stuffs on ebay, you know like dildos and stuff, who did this you ask, the admin of KC at the time i got banned, just as i finished a conversation with him and tone and evil on MSN, you know come to think about it as i was talking to him and my messenger kept logging off on its own but i was using it as i was talking to my daughter mum at the same time, this is when the tool was used.

ill never again chat with anyone on MSN messenger especially anyone in forums, to many dodgys for me.

although i don't agree with what as happened and the likes of KC going under as such, and giving the KC fellas the word so you all know as to whats happening, iv must say though iv always liked tone, never had any issues with him at all, and most of all he was a good online friend, it makes me sad that the last time i spoke to him all that **** happened to me, so if i was feeling upto posting again at KC i wouldn't be able to, its sad that i never got a chance to thank him for all the good he did starting up KC, and some good and kind things he did for me sending me some cool stuff, prolly to him he thought i was betraying him by posting at WPG, but it wasn't like that, meg is also a pal darn is too and vib and i was helping out just like i did at freds place, even if i wasn't upto it which i wasn't at the time.

worst of all i never got to meet him in person :( and prolly never will.

tone = top bloke ;)


BTW im on a spam fest, iv got 6 mounths of catching up :lol:

Like i said in my other post their were many members that put alot of work into KC, i just pointed Grantspain out as an example because he did so much recently on the monitor tech side of things, which is very hard info to get for free. I think you missed my point a bit i was not implying that people should have got a pack on the back or something as contributing to a forum is generally a thankful task, what i was getting at was the way they have been treated by KC after all they put in. Dont get me wrong like i have already said Tone seemed a good bloke and did a great service but its a **** way to bow out and i dont understand why someone would build such a great rep up like that then just throw it away so cheaply along with other peoples hard work.

without contradicting myself with my post above about tone, i just think reading your message and thinking about it theres maybe just one answer really to explain the ole issue.

tone had the final laugh, it also gets me thinking did he care really !!!!!!! about us or the forum :? like you said above, why did he let it go so easy, and why did he let KC get that out of control as such with porn and stuff, why did he allow me to be banned, i thought he was a friend, surly he must of known luke banned me :?

how could he just cut all ties with the forum like that, also knowing the work that was involved in building the place from ground up, theres one thing that comes to mind, why did he not just let one of the KC members take over the forum so there was still a community, KC was about having fun, helping folk, making new friends ....... etc and the place had all them things.

so why ?

it speaks for its self really if you ask me. :? :cry:

naaaa mate, do you remember when i last spoke to you evil, lordstar, and tone, and luke, on messenger ? ............ after that i couldn't get into KC again, within mins of me talking to you i tried logging into KC and couldn't, it would be impossible for me to forget my password as iv got it written down at the side of me, i used the same pass word for all the forums i visited, i couldn't log into any of them, it wasn't just KC, if you read my posts above youl get the full storey dude, my password in the forums had been changed so i couldn't log in .................. you see lots of strange **** was happening to me at KC and in the other forums when i got friendly with LUKE, if you need verification of this ask arcadefever, posts were being posted on my behalf, porn was being posted by me, posts being edited by me or with my account, im not kidding you, my life was quiet until i get friendly with luke, nothing at all happened to me like that before, its to much of a coincidence for me.

also the last time i spoke on MSN that day i noticed whilst i was talking to luke i was talking to caras mum at the same time, with 5 mins my messenger kept logging off, the next thing i know, i couldn't even log back into that and havnt been able to since, i did create another account with MSN that day and set it up found all my old contacts as id saved them, i then informed luke of this saying to stop **** around and im not arsed as iv created another account, within not even 1 hour i was unable to log into that one as well, now it had nothing to do with some error on my comp as i contacted the admins of each forum and they got me back in them all barin KC, oh did i mention the same day my ebay was also had too and i bidded on porn stuff ...................... in other words luke just guessed my passwords and played.

dont let him fool you, think about it, theres only so many ways you can type scooby for a password ( dont worry its not that anymore ) .................. i think you can see i wouldn't be able to forget that password.

my account was still there at KC i just couldn't get back in.

lets just run through that again shall we, lets create a list of places that i forgot my passwords for all within 1 day.

KILLERCABS
ARCADEFEVER
WPG
MSN
EBAY
