AA has completely wiped any questionable posts and threads from His Page
he is taking away the posting rights of any one who dares to question his involvement, so it would see he wins again

He removed any comments that questioned him on his Youtube videos too.
There's a part on the armour videos where he talks about why he made the thigh pieces the way they are.
What a cheeky dishonest bugger he is.

Ive been thinking about this today, im really peeved that ive been hoodwinked by this total idiot and i cant believe for a while i thought there was a conspiracy against AA but anyway ........
i dont know if its the same in the US but here in the UK we have whats known as Customer Statutory Rights and the Trades Discription Act (Law)
It states
The Trades Description is an act which was established to protect the rights of consumers, and to state requirements to businesses. The act was granted by the United Kingdom Parliament in 1968. At the time, this was a major step toward the protection and rights of consumers. In simple terms the act is one which prevents any products or services being sold on the basis of misleading information. Any false claims or information provided leaves those supplying the information liable to punishment.
The main points of this act stat:
AA Claims
Helmets, Costumes and Props Made by the Original Maker Using Original Molds
surely this is a breach of the Trades Discription Act :confused

Like, say you win a court case based on your testimony - but it was later discovered that you lied...? I'm not sure how it works here in the States, so I'm even more fuzzy on how it works in the UK.

Have you been following this since the start when AA materialized on the scene? The long list of his lies and exaggerated claims date back to day one, instead of being met with open arms from the community he was met with questions about how his story and claims didn't fit the product... He has been caught in lie after lie after lie after that, ever changing his story more frequently than he changes his underwear to whatever story he puke out that best fits the argument presented that day... IMO the guy is a 100% devoted con artist and crook or (and I mean this seriously) mentally ill...
I do find that a lot more sympathy and credibility is given to him by the UK audience in general... I don't know if that is because of UK culture in general or simply what the US faces everyday in the International community with a reluctance to accept whatever US 'angle' is presented due to the 'big brother' domination effect... I can't count the number of times I have heard thoughout this arguement (evidenced even on Facebook right now) where UK members say "He's a nice friendly chap that delivers shinny trinkets!" totally void and irrelavent of the arguments being presented to the claims and origins of those trinkets... I'm not saying it's an exclusive UK vs US party as it's not, it's just been my observation that UK members in general have given him a lot more slack or been more reluctant to call him out for his actions...

Oh i totally agree with your statement 100% i was one of those UK members that thought there was a vendetta against him, and ive met him 2 or 3 times and thought he was a top guy.
ive not been privvy to every thread about AA and il be honest i didnt fully understand the argument and i could never make the connection, back then my AFX helmet was my most prized posession, ive since done my research i understand a little better and im a little more educated of Trooper helmets.
My opinion of AA has changed, thats why ive been able to play devils adovocate on his FB page but the more he lied the more my guard fell as i become more upset at what i was reading, subsequently hes now blocked me from posting on his page ............
i hate the fact hes able to turn us members against one another too and i cannot understand how people can be so blind to the truth and facts that are put in front of them, if i can research and learn the truth (KUDOS to the RPF) then why cant all those other AA followers, what if anything are they hoping to gain, that to me is the most frustrating thing.
