Worming is a function of the forum software. It is a sneaky and nasty feature. You can allow someone to read and post, but the posts only show up for the moderators and no one else.
I know of only one person wormed. He/She has never posted since then, for some reason.

To mention Justin Fischer, of Beaver Dam Trophy, in Beaver Dam, Michigan, by name, is just plain wrong; but I'm happy you beat me to it. (devil)
During our failed attempt to receive payment, for a (rush) job I did for Justin, my wife called the Beaver Dam Chamber of Commerce, to file a complaint and was told she wasn't the first.
In fact, Justin has the distinction of being the first business in town, in line to have his application for renewal refused.
I would hope the ARA would exhibit the same fortitude, in refusing his membership, should he try to renew.
There's no gray area, or "he said, she said" in this instance.
His list of victims is long and verifiable.

Hey, I took a trip for you on that run ;) I guess I was the insurance clause.

In my case, I should have seen him coming. I just thought (mistakenly) that he had rehabilitated himself.
He was convincing in his promise to pay me.

David,
I went to the Beaver Dam Chamber website and it appears the renewal refusal is still in full force. There was no sign of BDTA.
Interestingly, I called and left a message for Justin last week. He never returned my call. It must be getting lonely in Beaver Dam Country.

My wife also called the local competition. The person on the phone said there isn't much activity at Justin's location.
Justin's probably the best thing that's ever happened for their business.

Franklin,
It's easy to stay off that list. Just be an ethical businessperson.
Easier for some, than others, but it's not that hard a task.
Having a conscience is the first step.

Sadly good crooks are usually very High IQ - but I am not sure Justin is smart just sneaky. And he must be good at sneaky because look at the individuals who were taken in (some of them more than once).
Justin is a wolf in sheep's clothing and he used the wool to pull it over peoples eyes. Everyone who has been in business has been shorn a time or two.

As you say, we all get hit once in a while but most of us don't get hit by the same person/company twice. :S
