Wild Luck Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) holy cow, LOL I thought zones were private servers and they cannot be sued Edit: I see it dates back from Apr 24, what was your response? Edited May 22, 2007 by Wild Luck
PoLiX Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 ^ROFL Polix, you gonna go hit it? Smack em around yes. I wanted to see if the Address is legit or not really. Well, the funny thing, how did they get your address? The address of what I can make of it is legit. 306 National Ave, Bremerton Wa 98312-4429 Funny enough, the 98312 Post Office is also on National Ave, so it is possible they put that address and just did this to scare you, yes. Phone: 000-000-0000Any company would have their actual phone number. And that looks totally straight out of publisher. Funny stuff. Edit: Nvm, 200 National Ave S, Bremerton = 98312 Post Office.
