I have NEVER hidden when I was asking about a
customer's issue. And I have always given
back to the group as much as I take. You are
a liar and a libeler.
And whoever you are, you are not Vanguard. He
is not a cyber stalker (narcissist trolling for
victims). You, whoever your are, are the scum
of the earth. A liar and a libeler too.
And, you are killfiled.
Have fun nym shifting. And try using your own
name instead of stealing Vanguard's, you coward.
