The only tale I see here is your ranting and making an ass out of yourself. I don't know Niel, I'm not a friend of his, but from what I see, hear, and read, he's a reputable man. If you paid the man with a check then post a copy of the cancelled check. That would solve the issue and prove your credibility. Otherwise, stop filling the board up with your ignorance. If you didn't pay the man, then pay him. Niel cannot easily prove your non-payment, you on the other hand can prove if you paid very easily by posting a copy of your proof of payment. Just some thoughts from a non-club member.
