Ok , this is just a warning site for people you should watch out for.
It was brought to our attention that Teds57 was claiming to have built this model. The person provided us ( see above ) with two different links to the real builders car. It was obvious to me and Iceman that the build pictures and the finished car ( built in 2005 ) was not Teds57. We asked he if this was true and only wanted he to prove it was his or to remove it and instead He verbally assaulted us , he sneaked in ( after 2:00am ) and removed his pictures. He also has banned me from MCJ were he and Nate are admins. So we have decide to ban him. the evidence is here for you all to make your own choices. I would never ask you to stop going to MCJ but just be careful and please do not share any of the contests or ideas of J'sC's with them, there site is already looking like a copy of ours and they have jeopardized our chances of getting George Barris as a celebrity judge by hounding him to do their Anniversary contest. He was not happy the last I spoke with him and he feels J's C's is to blame because thats who MCJ claims gave them the contact info. So go their at your own risk and watch out for Teds57, you may want to even warn any other site you go to. I am sure this is not the first time he has pulled this. Thank you Grandpabeast

i just went and checked at MCJ and the build in question has completely disappeared far as i'm concerned i'm done over there! this makes two of their members who try to pass others work off as their own, and not only members but they're admin as well!! i don't hang a round these kind of people in real life and i'm certainly not gonna do it on the web. tough as i'm sure it was, thank you for bringing this to everyone's attention GB.

So sad to hear this kind of thing. I remember the pics that were posted and now missing, and went to those links posted by Fart Factory, and I would have to conclude you guys made the right call on this. I am not a member of MCJ and if what Frank says is true, I don't want to either. I guess I will never really understand what compels some people to pull crap like that. Thanks for the heads up and policing the riff raff and troublemakers.
Shoot, I only have time for one board. I'm on two other boards, but this is the only one I'm ever on. With the time I do have I spend it here.

Hummm, this is a strange concept to me....I can not imagine trying to take credit for someone else's work. Personally I have been inspired by others and have challenged myself to try and build to a higher level when I see something that really stands out! But for me, it really comes down to building at a level I find enjoyable during the build, as well as one that I can look back on and remember the challenges of the build. I guess to sum up my philosophy I would have to say that it is nice when others can appreciate my work, but ultimately I'm actually building for myself....

I don't get it either. It's not that competitive of a sport to be doing stuff like that . An it was not even a contest it was just a build. I have since found out that he was bragging about how much time and money he had invested and was even entertaining offers from people who wanted to buy it when it was done . He has since removed the pictures from three sites that I know about. He has also locked out or banned a number of people from MCJ and he is not responding to any messages. That is truly sad when someone gets so deep into a lie that this is his only way out

Man it's really disappointing something like this happened. Hearing all these things happen over at MCJs just because we found out about it. Like beast said, and we've said it before, we would never tell you to stay away from any forum but just be careful guys. I'm sure this isn't the only forum that has bad apples. Some places probably don't even know that this happens. We've created a pretty close community here and I think it's important to trust each other. Beast and I really try to keep this place fun, fair and safe, so it is unfortunate we had to ban him for this. He had no explanation at all. He just said he didn't care and to remove his posts. I mean at that point, why not just say yes and I'm sorry....something....anything other than he not caring.
I don't understand either why someone would do that. Build to your skill and if you're not satisfied, improve. Always build for yourself. You don't have to please anyone but yourself. Well unless you're being commissioned for a build like CM (you're going to do great, bud). Never a need to claim someone else's build your own.
Anyways, I hope some of you guys aren't getting banned from over there like Beast did. Hehe. I think it's silly.

I will tell you guys every since I got banned from 3 sites and then with all the help from Iceman who got me back here that I have not been back to MCJ's and don't plan on going there again as I have returned to the 3rd site with no problems and I think that answers where the problem started from so I'll be here from now on Thanks for everyone who helped get me back on these 2 sites

The old Nate.. Yep. had a few run ins with him. Wanted custom painting done for his work He was also Banned from Our board also and havent been on MCJ for quite awhile now.. That stinks you have to claim someone elses work and not build your own. I can see taking one started by someone and running with it to finish. But not claiming the whole build. But seem like it runs with some over on MCJ board...I seen it a few times from others there that bought from the bay..

well i was banned 2 or 3 times by them,i almost even gave up joining any other sites because of it. I lost a model,not that its a big deal,it was just the point of the whole thing. Ice and Grampa beast know what im talking about.If it wasnt for GB emailing me and letting me know that he was starting this,i may have been still out there cheesed off!! Its not right that someone tries a befriend you and then takes advantage of you because we are on the internet.Thank god for GB and Ice they have made a awesome site,and if ya gotta ban someone well ya gotta do it!!Long live Jerry's Cherries!!!

This is very interesting. I'm a Moderator on MCJ and wasn't aware of this. Now I'm more informed.

Dogfish7 I hope you looked at the links that were given to me and Iceman proving that it wasnt Teds build. I tried talking to him and giving him a chance to explain but instead he removed his copies of the pictures and banned us from MCJ, I guess by accident he even banned Nate. Nate as said there is nothing he can do to lift the bans which is fine, but he doesn't believe Ted did anything wrong. Its an honor thing! How can he compete in any contest without someone questioning if he built it or not?

Definitely understand! Since reading this, I have Banned myself from the forum. Bet Nate never had a Moderator do that. On second thought, maybe he has running-around-smiley-emoticon I've been wanting to do it for awhile. Nate has talked recently about shutting MCJ down and moving everyone to yet another Christian forum. Just don't have time for drama.

Yes I too understand. Nate is a good guy but he is his own worst enemy. He gets all worked up about something that is nothing and the next thing you know hes shutting her down. I think in the almost two years I have known him he has shut it down or left then come back probably six or seven times. That was why me and Iceman started J'sC's NO DRAMA !! or at least we try and keep it that way. Glad your sticking around. Did you see this months theme for Bracket Racing is Turbos !!
