Alan has self-excluded from this site

[Dan Druff]

Alan has told me that he no longer wishes to participate in VegasCasinoTalk, which is fine.

I have disabled his account, at his request.

Now that he's gone, please cease bashing him, as he's no longer going to be part of the discussion here.

Thank you.

[MaxPen]

Duly noted.

[mickeycrimm]

Didn't he tell you that he....and Rob, no longer wish to participate here?

[AxelWolf]

I guess he didnt want to apologize for being wrong. And he must have found out Robs 200k pic was fake as hell. Is that a request or a demand? And what happens when he wants to come back after a month or two?

[The Boz]

Ok, terrific.

[kewlJ]

Let me see if I have this correct. As a member of this forum, Alan, or any of us are subject to the nastiest, most vile attacks and comments. But leave the forum and we are protected from the same

You are one fucked up guy and forum owner Todd/Dan Druff.

[kewlJ]

Since I have lost all desire to participate here, please add me to the self exclusion list as well. And let's just see if I am protected as well?

If the likes of Blackhole are not allowed to mention and attack me, that would essentially end his participation as well, since he mentions me in some hateful manner in every single post.

So you can come back as Spiderman??

And let me remind you that one of the longest running threads is a thread about WoV and comments and attacks of the members there, none who have chosen to be "part of the discussion here"

Alan was a dependably sane and honest poster. I thought he generally had the most reasonable take on things overall. Seems like a pretty good guy.

Unless he owed you money or you got fucked by one of the scam companies he shilled for that preyed on minority and poor customers in the SoCal area. All the while hiding behind a reputation as a news reporter years earlier. Yea, real good guy.

And I agree with KJ, why does Alan get that right or protection when others not a member here do not?

I don't think that is a fair characterization of Alan.

Alan ran an infomercial. Yes, it was called "Alan's Best Buys", but only a complete moron couldn't tell that it was an infomercial full of paid sponsors. The segments even played out like extended commercials.

I watched a few of the episodes out of curiosity. I didn't see any scammers. I saw small businesses which were trying to promote their goods or services. Nothing jumped out at me as a "scam", nor should Alan have been expected to have carefully investigated the business. Similarly, when you hear radio hosts read advertising copy on the air, they're also not 100% sure that they're not promoting a scam company, but if the company basically passes the smell test and pays up, they accept the money. That's been standard practice in the broadcasting industry or many decades.

There was one travel service which I found to be semi-shady, and I brought it to Alan's attention. Alan eventually stopped doing business with them.

There are many legitimate areas where you could criticize Alan, but I don't believe his Best Buys TV show is one of them. Pretty standard infomercial stuff.

Totally disagree other than people should know better. But the reality is many minorities and lower income people are just not business savvy like many of us. So they fall for the stuff Alan pushes, believing he has done the legwork on these companies. While I’m sure Alan has covered himself legally, here are a few of the complaints about companies on his show, or companies the promote such as the Home Warranty Vendor he advertises. This company collects potential customers names and sells them to other Home Warranty Companies. Here is their Number #1 option “Best Home Warranties 2019” promotes.

Select Home Warranty based in NJ
2448 BBB complaints in the past 3 years. Seems high to me.

How about the Remodeling Guys in Woodland Hills. New company that appears to reinvent themselves every so often based on a simple Yelp search.

Looks like they were 3 day flooring before this latest venture.

Not my job to research all these “Best Buys” but I believe I showed enough for most to see research is needed before a customer contracts with one of these companies.

I'm sure Rob Singer would agree with you.

Alan was the founder of this site. It is a great loss that Alan is gone and that it has come to this. It's too bad that this site is losing an asset like Alan due to other assets with out the "ET" on the end. If all the good people leave then what will this site be left with? What good will this site be? what will this site become?

[Rob.Singer]

Face it you idiots. Alan made most of you look like morons on WoV, so all you've done here is lie about him and make completely false assertions about his relationship with his son. But the most telling part of all this is how none of you can come to grips with his and my explanation about what any mathematician would have to say about my play strategy, and how axel & co. can only keep telling themselves my $200k posted picture jackpot "JUST CAN'T BE!!!" I can see why such a hit would forever bother a puny little twit gambler like axel. Go ahead you loser--I put the winning picture up. PROVE to everyone that it's a "fake". Go ahead, show us how it's not just your silly jealousy that doing the talking for you. Explain how it's not just you doing a lot of anxious, panic-driven hoping..And Imagine! his humiliation-laced envy when the conversation was about penis size....

I advise Dan to close this place down, and fast. There is trouble coming, and his gambling-related illnesses and social issues will seem small in the days to come.

Sounds like some sort of threat. Quit being a bitch and follow your boy Alan out the door.

Typical Singer BS and caught in another lie and threat.

Anyone who ever read one bit of his garbage, or even negotiated a $20 BJ from him in a truck stop men’s room know he is full of it here, again.

If something was coming like the lawsuit he wants Dan and others to believe, he would keep his mouth shut. Because he wants others to pay for all the humiliation he has been subject to over the years. The way anyone with common sense and the ability to add 1+1 up sees through his claims immediately.

He would be so filled with joy he and Alan would be a giddy as 2 school boys thinking they were going to “show” everyone that ridiculed them for their failed lives.

That said, you never what Alan will try to make a dollar. A broke dying old man with nothing left but a nasty gambling addiction is a dangerous individual. Cheap buffets in Vegas should beware of Alan filling his pockets with cookies.

Trouble coming, huh? Well, you're a snitch so I guess you would know.
