What?! Come on man, if some moderator closes a topic, then he opens a new thread by himself usually.
If no one does it then no need to invent a bicycle here.

[platorin]

Why did they ask to close the old one?

[Joe Budden]

Iconic has refused to address blackcard shipments.  No tracking, no deliveries (even in the Northeastern US).  The shipped out last week.  Apparently by turtle express.

Dude you dodged my question on it forever, even before all that ending bullshit happened.


For the record, I was just giving you shit, but I didn't actually think you'd actively refuse to answer about it for such a stretch of time.

As soon as we start getting momentum they will do what they did before...if I create a thread I will not delete anything unless it is just blatant fud
