No ligaments torn here....In fact professor, I didnt add any personal thoughts to any information I put up..I only passed along what was sent to me..

I also posted here a pm exchange I had with Todd969 at HotBoat last night....He denied everything I asked him.....when I asked him If he was in fact a mod at Hotboat and was the one deleting threads for some time...he wrote back his internet was breaking up and wanted to continue this by phone.....I prefer having written copy of these issues....and now HotBoat appears to be gone...:nono...Im sure he's a great guy....to you...So is the person who gave me the info I posted....as for suing me.....some have tried.....bring it.....and for the last person who tried to kick me in the junk....well ...he is unavailable for comment..:hmm...This story is far from over.....If the info I was forwarded is indeed not based in fact...I will apologise to Todd969 on the forums.....

So....was he the one in the Jeep? :hmm :D

It wasnt Todd!

Hey Gary, any chance of getting Todd to come over here and give us the scoop. That is if he knows what went down. As for Todd doing the banning, I just don't see it.

Hi this is Todd Taylor from Jokers Wild Promotions, Black Rhino Havasu, Performance Boats Magazine and the owner of Rocco. I want to make it clear just who I am so no one confuses me as an enemy. I was kicked off of the HOT Boat Team when Darrin Davidson purchased the Magazine. I'm not the "Todd" who has put on several of the Rhino runs in the Havasu area and I still own Jokers Wild and YES We are doing the Regattas still.

How's it going River Dave long time no see?


:smackhead

howdy .....I was inpressed to see the new mag/site that you are now attached to......great job and much success ....way to go todd ..bobby

Tood is my very good friend, and he told me he had nothing to do with the banning. I believe him.

What bothers me about the whole thing is that Hotboat allowed him to get thrown under the bus, and then took the site down without explaining the whole issue and coming to his defense. Totally classless act, and it surprises me with the contact I have had with the new people at the magazine. I hope it comes back to bite them in the ass. That's not how you treat people. :swear

I dont like someone posting a picture of him whereas it may or may not be true. I dont know why, I just dont like the feeling I get when someone is being accused and posts a picture of someone saying, "here he is." Not blaming Mr.C, just feels weird to me.

A pic of the rhino or something would have been OK to describe the person, but an actualy mug shot, who knows what anyone looks like anyways? Post a picture of my face or my boat, more people will know the boat, and very few will know my face.

For what it is worth, Todd has come through for many board memebers helping them, I just dont see it.

REgardless of who did it, I really dont see what the issue it. Whoever now owns the site wanted something done and there is nothing anyone could have done to prevent it, just ask Rex.

I agree, and from the moment that it was told that he said he had no part in it, that was enough proof for me.

Exactly. Whomever did the banning was almost assuredly acting at the request of the owners...

Ditto...Todd is also a good friend of mine and has gone out of his way for me so many times, I've lost count. Plus, I consider him a guy with integrity and he says he wasn't involved....then I believe him....:)

You know...that is not exactly the best quote for someone who is actually innocent. :D
True that. I was just making fun of the fact that he was accused, but there has been no evidence provided other then someone saying "Trust me".

Mr. Naudio, I don't know Todd969 (I think I've met him once though) but I made a few phone calls to people that'd know, and every single one of them pointed in his direction as the person that was responsible for the deleting of threads recently, as well as the recent banning of various members?

Whether that is true or not, I dunno.. but that's what everybody is sayin? It's not just JBB that heard that. Seems like that's what everybody is saying.

If I had his phone # I'd call him myself and ask him to get to the bottom of it, but unfortunately I don't.

here is what I know for sure. it is neither Todd969 nor Todd Taylor
it is however a "Todd" that was brought on to HB staff about 2 months ago
I went to the HB office and he was there hacking away at the site, when I confronted him about what the hell he was doing and did he have Darrin's permission..I was met with silence as he tried to turn away from me, (big mistake)
Where is Darrin I asked....no answer
so explained to this chimp who I was and how pissed I was about to get
the answer I got is he is on Vacation till after Christmas.
Fine I left
I went to Darrin's home, both cars are there, packages at the door and the outside lights are on., his 5th wheel is gone which tells me he is at his property and out of cell range till he returns....should be home this Friday.
he has two messages from me on his phone informing him of the situation this has caused and that he should make every effort to get back in touch with either his staff or me.

I suspect that some....errr MOST of this has been done without Darrin's consent or guidance....I mean come on "I am going on Vacation and while I do shut the website down without any notice" nope I am not buying this for a second till I talk to Darrin himself, nor will I believe any of the rumors flying around till I talk to Darrin directly

after all this running around, I really do suspect " the mice are at play" while the cat is away, it's just the feeling I get from the situation and the 3rd Todds reaction.

anyways I have had fun talking with most of you over on HB and I hope we can all do that again, I will do as much as I can to persuade my friend to put it all back the way it was, as soon as we get in touch with each other

SK ....out

The damage is done.

If you ever go back and talk to that Todd, ask him why I got banned. :D

Good info Karl, however this was a major fockup, and Im doubting it was done without the big wigs knowledge. Maybe a back handed slap of approval, or something, and do it when IM gone sounds like a good idea, and not being available for a call, doubtful that anyone with his stature is out of communication for any length of time, they just came out with sat phones (about 15 years ago) that work anywhere.

It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out to say the least. A 3rd Todd now? LOL Are you serious?

If everyone is out of town and not available then where is Rex getting his info from? As well as the reply e-mails that Crusader83 got? Somebody has their hands on the controls..

I was really more into the :beer than than the defense of anyone.
I know for a fact that Todd969 has been responsible for one thread deletion on hot boat.But dont know how that thread could play into this.(just had to do with his music)So in short I guess I would say that he probably could have done it had he wanted .But I have known him for some time and dont see him as the type to lie about anything.I personally will give him the benefit of the doubt.
Your site seems like it could fill some of the empty time in the everyday hum drum.

If anyone thinks any of this was done without Darrin's knowledge, they are dead wrong. I know for a fact that Darrin knows what went down.

What I find very funny is that people are so upset about it. Who really gives a fock, a place is only as good as the people that frequent it. This and performanceboats.com are great places now that they are getting visited by so many people.

Screw Hotboat, it was their screw up, and they are the only one's that will suffer from their poor business decision.
