If you want to ask Exoticspotter for the IP address of the person who stole and uploaded your photos, we can check here and see if it was a GTP registered user.
While I don't understand why anyone would care as there is no financial gain/loss involved... doing an IP check would be an excellent way to at least know who is copying the photos.
A simple apology from M5Power to those that took offense to his stereotypical generalizations of Alfas would have ended this nonsense a long time ago. Instead, no all the attention is on M5Power, which I would have thought he would not have wanted to begin with as it draws attention to his previous missteps that he has had on this board.
He'll be back at some point once he's picked his toys back up, Lovelace.
Hasn't
M5Power announced leaving GTP at least three times already over just the last couple years?
Off and Up Out
Well everyone
In fact, I have to say.. after looking over M5Power threads, and many of his posts... it has left me quite confused. I lost track of the number of different cars he has claimed to own (Suburban, BMW 740i, Mercedes CLK55, Mercedes ML430, Mercedes ML500, Range Rover, Porsche Cayenne Turbo, Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI, and more)
I am equally confused over his reported location, which has been mentioned as being Texas, NY, Michigan, Colorado, and others (yes, folks move... but)
He has also posted contradicting information on his age and that he was married and had a child.
But as it turns out he apparently is only 19, living in Atlanta, and he just got his first car last year, a used 1996 Volvo 850 Turbo. Which is certainly nothing to be ashamed about or even out of the ordinary, but that in itself makes the previous lies all that much worse. Being yourself is always better than pretending to be someone you are not. Someone with nothing who doesn't pretend to be someone else will have a great deal more respect from others than someone with nice things who only pretends to have a great deal more than they already have.
At this point I have no idea what is truthful and what isn't in regards to what M5Power has said about himself and the cars he owns, but only that it suggests that maybe he really could use a break from his online activity. If nothing more than to get a fresh start and focus on what is real and not imagined. I can't possibly say I know him, but I do wish him well, and hope he returns with a better attitude, a clearer understanding of what is truly important, and without the need to pretend to be someone other than himself.
Peace be with him, and I hope he finds his way back after everything settles down (both here, and in his personal life).
