A pachislodb first...and hopefully the last one of these

I have been hoping it did not come to this but I have decided to ban a member of the pachislodb community. I am from this point forward banning scooby_doo_m2002 from further interactions with pachislodb.
As some of you who have been around for a while might recall scooby_doo_m2002 ran a pachislo business for a very short time called pachisupplies.com where he sold tokens and the such. He had a very poor track record of delivery but from what I understood he finally came through with every ones order and he shutdown the business or was he shutdown by paypal...I am not sure.
When all this originally happened I sent a message to him asking what was up and he gave me a long sad story about things in his personal life wasn't going all that well and he didn't expect the business to take as much time as it was. I felt bad for him so once he made good on everything (again, I am not 100% sure) so I left it go.
Recently, he posted a message trading tokens for pachinko balls...or something like that. I figured that he had gotten his personal life straightened out so I didn't think anything of it. A few weeks after that I got a message from a new member basically stating that Mike (scooby_doo_m2002) was up to his old tricks. He told the member that he had sent them but they showed up back on his porch. The same stories that he given people back a year or so ago. I sent him asking him what was up and he did not repsond...and has not logged back in since he decided to cheat someone out of their money.
I tend to be a nice person and try to give people the benefit of the doubt but I can not in good conscious allow him to remain a member here giving both pachislodb and pachsilo's in general a bad name. In my mind he is either just plain stupid (or thinks I/we are) or is a thief.
