As a 'victim' of this crime... I can tell you first hand, that I considered Neptune a friend. I chatted with him regularly on Skype. Off the computer and in the real world I'm a damn good judge of character. That's why I don't like many people. When you're sitting behind a fuckin computer screen its hard to judge a guy. Don't think I'm a 'judgmental' guy because that's off base. In my years of experience with people, I've learned that my first intinct is 99% of the time, correct.

When I first heard what was going down and Neptune had been banned for cheating I was talking directly to him. He swore to me up and down he wasn't cheating. I believed him. Probably more so because I wanted to believe him than anything else. Anyhow as I said, I believed him. Then I was confronted with some pretty damning evidence to the contrary. I questioned him on this evidence. He replied with the same excuses he gave Shane and within 2 minutes he split from Skype.

As I said, I considered him a friend and now I feel like not only was I lied to by a friend, but i was also betrayed and that royally pisses me off.

When I pinned him for the X-Treme title it was NOT out of spite. I just want that out there. I pinned him BEFORE getting the evidence. I even had his blessing to do it. With the turn of events, I could not care less, now, whether I had that blessing or not. When I did pin him though, I still thought I was chatting with a friend.

I'm not one to really give two shits about wins and losses. I think most people know that. I don't mind losing. There are some fan-fucking-tastic writers here in the XWF. If I lose though, I'd like to think I wasn't in a handicap match that I wasn't aware of.

I put a lot of time and effort into the things I write. I also know that not everything I write will always resonate with the 'audience' or the judges. It's just the nature of the game we play. If I lose in a singles match, I want it to be because for that particular event, my opponent was a little better than me.

Shane stated that if any of us lost to him since his return that we could reverse it to a win. I don't spout off my record in RP's unless someone brings it to light in their work. As I said, I don't care about records. In this case though.... I am reversing it to a win. I was cheated.... Betrayed.... Lied to.... By a person I considered a friend and as I said that royally pisses me off.

I'm Sebastian Duke, and your God damned right, I approved this mother fucking message....
