Brent here-I just wanted to say thanks to all of you for getting this guy! It's great to see BWE brings people together when it counts-so next time there's controversy on our site, lets remember BWE brings out the common good in people as well!

Happy Turkey Day everyone!

If he has posted bail, he might be at home in time for a BWE Beatdown session.

Brent: Congrats on a successful BWE web presence and crime stoppers network!
Drake and the others that helped out: Mucho Gracious, and may your lines be full of Karma!
Lurkers: Hope you enjoyed the story...
Thievs: BEWARE of BWE!!!

Happy T-giving all!

Wow! This is very cool. I had not been on the site since Sieblers first post. TMan called me this evening and filled me in on what went down. I love it. Great detective work and even better teamwork.

Sometimes this site can get bogged down with a silly spat over one thing or another. Then something like this happens and we all become brothers again. Everyone who was involved should be very proud of themselves. I am equally proud to be associated a a great group like this that always comes together in times of need.

Great ending to a crappy story. Not sure if we are better served by no publicity (so the crooks don't know we are networked), or lots of publicity (so the crooks know that we are networked). Seems like the former is starting to work for us recently. WTG to all that jumped into action to get an immediate result.

Wow, I get busy for a bit and end up missing all that action.

BWE

I just wish a group like BWE was around when my mountain bike got stolen a couple weeks ago; damn, way to go!

Yeah! Good to hear that guy got what he deserved and even more important, that you got your boat back. I've been lurking here on the forum and check craigslist often just in case there is a good deal. I haven't felt like posting anything yet since I have caught nothing to brag about, but I HAD to help out. Looks like the timing was right and we caught the ad before that idiot got the chance to sell it. Nice work everyone!
