Title: Um just me or is something weird here?
Post by: CAS on 05/05/2012, 05:19 PM
  Um yea been checking out the boards here and there. Watching a lot of you guys bashing the new guys who only know ebay. Talking trash showing your mentality. Not giving the new guys a chance or even the time of day. Well cept blue he is the coolest. I do wish for prices like you all talk about would be nice, great ect. Aint going to happen, it is the way it is. Anywho I am laughing at all the jerks on here, AND WHO IS ADVERTISING ON YOUR PRECIOUSE BOARDS? lol lol lol Really. Your beloved boards are being overrun by ebay. WOOT WOOT and there ya have it peeps like zeta (from what i can tell the supreme jerkoff here) is being supported by the beloved ebay. Ya ya prob be banned for life, but not like anyone really would give someone like me the time of day anyways. What these boards could be is awesome, what they are not so much.

we dont object to noobs
we all use ebay, but often cant/wont buy the games we want on ebay, due to price.
we have no issue with ebay auctions that start low, just dont try to justify charging huge prices for stuff just because its turbo/PCE related

Things get heated in the ebay thread, there's no question. I don't think anyone's been treated unfairly though. If it concerns you, avoid that thread. There's lots of other discussion going on that is in no way hostile. Why not tell us what you've been playing? Or ask about the system capabilities? Maybe pontificate on some obscure part of the system's history? I checked your post history and no one has been hostile towards you. In fact, most of your posts are thanking members for helping you out. Be friendly and helpful and you'll receive the same in return. :)

I was smart and just watched for awhile yaknow see how things are,and carefully put up a to buy / trade list with xtra stuff I have and wow not one single post. Did not dare to put up a sell list lol. But wait didnt someone sell or trade some of the stuff I had on my list? Na couldnt be that would meen yall have the tendancy to either totally rip someone a new one or just ignore new peeps. Must just be me, oh and the stuff I am talking about was not the ebay thread. Some of these guys took a blood oath or something against "evil bay". I try to be nice that is the way my mommy taught me but some of yall well lol yea whatever. Um and no I am not from New Jersy. Had a lot of this stuff from the 80's and thought I would start collecting again, but wow the prices are deff crazy. And to see what I am talking about look at the sell threads.

I can't fault members for being apprehensive to trade or sell hard to find stuff, particularly to someone who has less than 10 posts. I've got my own WTB thread and I think it's pretty well known that I'll pay high prices for games. I've been here for a few years, have several hundred posts and I haven't received any offers for the games I'm seeking in that thread. I have, however, found some of the games I was looking for by monitoring the for sale threads here. I'm in no way offended by that, and I continue to respect the community.

QuoteNa couldnt be that would meen yall have the tendancy to either totally rip someone a new one or just ignore new peeps.
The choice is obviously up to you, but I think if you made an effort to contribute to the forum beyond buying stuff you'll probably find that people are much more accepting. Like I said, try establishing yourself by conversing about the system itself. Why do you love it? When did you start playing it? etc

QuoteMust just be me, oh and the stuff I am talking about was not the ebay thread. Some of these guys took a blood oath or something against "evil bay".
Well, I don't know what to tell you. Yeah, there's a stigma against paying high prices on ebay. I won't lie though, I've done so several times and I've had it out with other forum members over that. I don't think any of them are assholes though. Their concerns are valid and I still respect them even if we don't see eye to eye on everything.

QuoteI try to be nice that is the way my mommy taught me but some of yall well lol yea whatever. Um and no I am not from New Jersy.

OK, good! Now let's actually talk about the system. Not what you want for it, not why you think PCEFX consists of a bunch of elitists, but rather discussion on the system itself. :)

Welcome to the boards, Now reasons why i dont buy or trade with noobs on the board.

They havent shown they can be trusted. Im sure alot of people on here would buy or trade with noobs but how do we know someone with 1 post and its a sell or buy post is here to be apart of this forum for years to come and not just here to complete a set or worse buy cheap games to resell on ebay. Yes it has happened in the past.

I really dont respond to peoples WTB threads ONLY because if you keep your eyes open on here you can find your games. talk to people and get to know them and they will keep eyes peeled for you on games you need.

Also most noobs like to bash people from the start, Everyone ive got stuff off all have been awesome and it makes me wanna give back in big ways. What most noobs fail to do is introduce themselfs on here before asking for games. Alot of us are wary about scam artists on here looking to be a fake friend and BAM leave then we see the game we sold them on ebay for $300 when we sold it for $50.

The reason people jump on resellers on here is they cant be trusted to buy and sell from. I know when i make a trade or sell/raffle i want the game to go to someone thats gonna enjoy the fuck out of it and HOPEFULLY when they get bored or move on offer it to the forums first.

But again welcome to the forums

Not suggesting anything about you in particular, but here's a true story: Once, I paid $80 for a bunch of Dreamcast stuff to a new member on a forum I frequented. In short, the guy took the money and disappeared.

People are going to be skeptical. As they should be. Don't take it personally.

I agree.  Hard to be sympathetic when the guy starts whining right off the bat.  That and his posts reads like he's a high schooler.

Well wel the rabid dogs come out of the woodwork, lol. Actually this post started off because so many hate ebay and yet  it is supported by ebay and I thought that was really funny. Lets see four peeps trying to start a conversation and five ripping a new one. Just because someone does not agree with you does not make them a highschooler. And Bernie, really? You think your so cool showing off your beer and gf like trophies, telling peeps to go to hell like you soooo special. Have some class dude. Tatsujin so this has happened before? Not by me, maybe something more to it? Lets see so you guys think that you are a gang and everyone has to pass an initiation? That it? Yall cant trust me well thats ok, I did trust yall for the most part. Sent some stuff off for repairs and mods, he refused payment till I was satisfied. Mutual trust a good thing. Sent a couple grand off for some stuff to a diff member. Was sweating all kinds of stuff I tell ya. But it came in all good. So some trustworthy members but crap like the posts I am getting now, how am I supposed to trust yall? I do understand not wanting to sell because might get a profit on ebay, and loosing stuff out of the "loop",but I dont understand the not trading part. If you both get what you want .... Yea dont understand that. And if I sold on ebay I would not have all this crap? stuff? gold? http://s1248.photobucket.com/profile/CAStutzman (hope I did this right never done link before) Would I? Yea you make people jump through hoops to be a member of the "gang" for the most part wont even acknowledge them till they do. Guess I am just a bastard wanting games and I dont really fit in. I dont care how fast the spindle turns or how many megawatts it take to power one. I just want it to work and play games. Thought maybe find someone to trade stuff with and maybe buy a few things, but hey whatever.

Trust is earned, and a majority don't know you from Adam...so you expect to be trusted with open arms....especially after  douchey posts like these...good luck.

Funny (as usual) almost all new members have no issues, it's the idiots that come on flailing their arms and spouting nonsense that have the issues...coincidence?

Why are you so angry.. Jealous of our gang? Hahaha it's no gang man it is a common sense club... Don't sell things at eBay prices here, be a nice and friendly guy & don't come here thinking you know it all, just keep an open mind. And It's that easy to fit in.

Many new guys have come here and I have got hooked up and jumped right into the "gang". We have a lot of passion for our systems and we stick up for it whether it be pricing or what games you should get. You sure won't find this over on Digitpress or any other forum... At least here I know these are people I can trust and I value there opinion and will be truthful whether I want to hear it or not.

Your first post was so negative what do you expect in resposnses? Your angry cause no one wants to trade with ya is that it?......with only 7 post in, patience man but it may be to late if you don't lighten up.

Last time I checked, you become a "respectable member", not through an initiation or a test, but through acting like one.
Some here have sharper fangs than others, but most of the time they mean well. Unless you decide to, oh I don't know, deliberately piss them off : /

Huh? Where did I say I was to be exspected to be trusted? I did the trusting first, sent my equipment off, and some cash. Maybe I did not become a member by your standards, but who exatly the heck are you? So really you trying to tell me yall aint ganging up on me its my imagination? Are the "issues" because of me or because of you? Again just scroll up. You dont trust me who cares, but it is good to know you cannot be trusted. What you are upset because I said your boards aint so awesome? You treat people like they are trash then get all butt hurt. Look in the past posts it happens and it is no way to treat someone. You could be above all this and take with a grain of salt like a man, But no not yall, have to gang up on someone like the schoolyard bullies. And you guys say i act like a high schooler.

Niche community forums are usually located in the internet Bayous and they all exhibit the same bullish small town, "we don't like your kind here" mentality.

It is nothing new and to be expected given human nature. Use the ignore list function to disregard the most noisome members and otherwise just take it easy. Its an internet Forum, mate, nothing to get worked up about.

No one would've had trouble with you if you only discussed the problem and let off the 'tude in your first post of this topic. All it takes is a bit of tact and thoughtfulness.

Quote from: CASBut no not yall, have to gang up on someone like the schoolyard bullies. And you guys say i act like a high schooler.
Well, no offence but, your posts could use a another read before you submit. They're hard to to follow.

Edit: And well, yes, there is a bit of an anti-ebay thing going on here. But for good reason. eBay gauging isn't limited to just TG16/PCE stuff, of course, but that's what we can fight off here. If you've read threads where you feel someone has treated another member unfairly in relation to this, we could use some links to that so that we can evaluate this better.

And while some of us might be hating on eBay, it would be foolish of us not to take advantage of it as well. Not everything is insultingly overpriced and there are deals to be had. It's a kind of love-hate relationship. I'm sure you understand?

Ok Sparky let me see this is not my first post. Oh bout a year or so ago you sold me some of your famous stickers. Got the whole set and I might add awesome they are. Dunno If you remember but at about the same time a gentleman (ok very loose translation there lol) decided to sell heck dont even remember what. He was way overpriced for this boards tastes. Do you remember what ensued? All the cursing, nasty posts, ganging up. Kinda like what is going on now, well minus the cursing. Hmm interesting though cant seem to find hide nor hair of those posts. Turned the whole boards upside down lol. All someone had to do was thank him for the chance but none was interested. Yea but that was not what happened was it. I have got to say you are a cool dude, even though I put down your beloved board you are not acting like a jerk. And you do know what I am talking about, no? Sorta am hoping its not too late but what will be will be.

NOT by calling them out or insulting peoples family (Bernie's wife) I for one have no respect for some noob trying to preach about who we pick and choose who we let in our "gang". You sound like someone that has major issues to me. Sorry if we all didnt open you with open arms and welcome you to the fold when you didnt get any takers on your trades. SO what do you do?

I remember something like that happening. I'm not sure we're thinking of the same thread but I'm pretty sure it was a case of the price was so off, it kind of became like an insult. Like if someone is questioning your intelligence. I remember this thread (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=10882.msg201842#msg201842) about a guy selling boxes for ridiculous prices. It's things like that. In that case, it was alright to get angry. A little of the top maybe, but that kind of response was to be expected. Whatever good intentions the guy had was blown away by the price of a box that was eerily near it's sought after content.

Well as for Bernie I do owe his wife an apology, but he in no way had the right to tell someone to go to hell just because they do not believe the same way he does. Oh wait this is America he has the right to believe how he wants to. Oh so that meens that I have the right to believe they way I want to. Is that right? Well not on your boards anyways. And to think this all started out mostly as a jokish kind of thing. kamiboy and Ji-l87 thanks for your input. I will take into consideration. Got to admit that the potshot I took at zeta was prob a bit much, and I dont care how beloved that dude is he has anger issues or something lol. But it is nice to see that some will give advice and not just be well, I dont know how to put it properly. Dont need anymore angry citizens.

Hmm you are surprised when someone puts up a negative post after receiving one? Really? The point of that being who exactly do you figure you are to pick and choose who should join your boards and who should not? At the time of my first posts someone could have posted something but no you being the supreme well whatever you are decided that I am not up to your level. Someone posts something, even if you are not interested, could post something anything so they dont feel like the redheaded stepchild so to speak. Nice to know that whoever become your friend you will back them up even if they are wrong. You really surprised that someone would post something negative when ignored? Could be wrong but I think this is a public board, which means open to the public, which means you will get all kinds. Me I just would like to know where the measuring stick is to see if I might someday measure up to your standards. And really telling someone to go to hell because they dont see eye to eye with you well just aint right in polite society, not that anyone would ever mistake here for that.

Aint going to happen, it is the way it is.
I can't be bothered to read through this whole thread to see if it's already been pointed out, just as it seems you couldn't be bothered to read much of the discussion you're criticizing.

But as often happens with people calling gouging-haters delusional/crazy/etc, you completely missed what was actually being said: that the prices we are talking about are happening, both on and off eBay. That's what makes the occasional ludicrous selling prices so ludicrous. Even in spite of market manipulation, Turbo/PCE games still manage to regularly sell cheap. The underlying problem that the people you're criticizing have been pointing out, is too many people like you are not only oblivious to this, but seem to ignore when it is spelled out to you.

I agree that some people are too rough on newer members and that the board is too negative in general. But that is a separate issue.

Well black Tiger thank you for the post, but you are a bit wrong in the fact that I have read every post, even apologized for calling Bernie's wife his girlfriend. And most of the ensuing posts from the first is about how it seems, to me anyways that noobs are either flamed or ignored. Ok well cannot be all, but really enough that a couple of other peeps have noticed also. Not to mention that peeps here sit in judgement wether they think some one should even be allowed to post. This is a public forum, peeps are all diff. I apologized and get a total flaming cursive rebuttal and told I act like a ten year old. Ok what ever guess if that is the way they need to get their point across go for it. Seems to me not so much goes they way one wants it to in life. He is young has a lot of living to do, he will see. Anyways on to your post well have seen all the posts and mine was about how some here like to gang up on peeps. Ok maybe they were wrong for asking the prices they do. But really not many seems to even try to be polite. Just a lot of cursing, gangbang the new dude. Ok he was asking to much but he did come here first, maybe dunno point out what kind of a forum this is and that his prices are to high. Who know might even drop the prices or just settle for a trade. But hey what do I know. And thnx cabbage on the comment for the beard, lol drives my boss a little nutzy.

Post by: thesteve on 05/06/2012, 08:15 PM
were all pretty good guys here.
some will come off a bit harsh (zeta)
but even then we generally have good info to share.
as for prices if you get a ton for what your selling congrats, but dont act like your untitled to the high sell prices.
often we have raffles on games that people actually want.
wanted threads are often ignored, as they are often asking for things that others wont give up.
if you want to buy or barter watch the sales threads and make offers on what you want.

Ok thesteve thnx for the info however I never did try to sell anything. Well ever actually. For well just short of 30 years off and on been collecting and trading. Dont ever really seem to sell. That one game I really want might come by and who know what they will need. Been in this two horse town for about 15 years now, lol nobody here has ever heard of tg16 let alone a pc engine. So I just kept on holding onto them. Never know might find someone or a group who is willing to trade. So actually dont think I am entitled to anything, not to mention on my original post I really did specify everything was for trade only. I have never even sold one item on ebay, of any kind,if you can believe that .
Title: Re: Um just me or is something weird here?
Post by: thesteve on 05/06/2012, 08:53 PM
i know you werent selling
just when a noob gets ripped into here its either they start in on others here or they take an entitlement stance on sales.
were mostly a gaming community here. (we play our systems/games)
a few of us do repairs and modifications.
we share system issues and fixes.
sometimes one of us will get a large lot buy and sell it off here piecemeal, or just sell off the duplicates.
often the prices are kept reasonable or even raffled off free.

I'm generally rude to new members at least once. I probably said something dickish to BlueBMW when he came here but I don't think he or I can even remember what it was. Then there are douchebag time bombs like CAS here who pull this shit.

Honestly, it's a pretty good barometer of dicketry. The guys here who hate me like Sparky and Professor Mike actually have reasons for it. They are stupid reasons, IMO, but they are reason. CAS, whoever the fuck he is, hasn't even been here long enough to dislike me for anything other than that I probably exposed his lame-ass with a Newtype eBay gouger hunch. It doesn't always work, but I've gotten to the point where not only can I tell when a new guy is a dick from his first post, but I can 3/4 of the time trick him into saying something that makes his evil nature obvious to the other members by simply posting a comment or two in his thread.

A nice guy doesn't just turn into a huge asshole like his because of an Internet comment or two. CAS was an ass before he even got here. We just exposed it.

And CAS, seriously, I'm not one with any authority to critique people's grammar, spelling, or punctuation, but...it's genuinely difficult to interpret your posts here without reading every sentence multiple times. Proofread that shit, man. You must know that questions are supposed to have question marks at the end, right? Do you know what a comma is?

Also CAS... Ya I thought I had dealt with you before as I flipped throw many Pms looking to find ya but a year ago is pretty far back and I gave up, but right now either your on a drunken bender or your just pissed off, whatever it is there is no talking to ya right now..

I don't think that you're a high schooler because you disagree with us.  I think you're a high schooler because your spelling, grammar, and punctuation all suck.  Not that I'm perfect, but your posts (and your thoughts) are a fucking mess.  And you had 5 total posts when you started this thread.  So safe to say that you didn't give the community a chance.  So I'm going to have to agree with Bernie, or whoever has their wife's pic in their sig.  Time for you to fuck off somewhere else.

Quote from: Sadler on 05/05/2012, 09:10 PMThings get heated in the ebay thread, there's no question. I don't think anyone's been treated unfairly though. If it concerns you, avoid that thread. There's lots of other discussion going on that is in no way hostile. Why not tell us what you've been playing? Or ask about the system capabilities? Maybe pontificate on some obscure part of the system's history? I checked your post history and no one has been hostile towards you. In fact, most of your posts are thanking members for helping you out. Be friendly and helpful and you'll receive the same in return. :)
So lets see my posts up till now have been polite and thankfull. Must be my imagination that you are a jerk? (hmm had some xtra posts in here sorry Sadler not you so for you are cool) I just dreamed of you guys ganging up on the new guy? Oh wait all you have to do is scroll up lol so um whatever dude.
WTF? Look man, there was nothing in my quoted post that could lead you to believe I'm a jerk. FFS, I put a smiley in there! A smiley! That's the universal "I'm not a jerk" symbol. I'm getting the feeling that you have a chip on your shoulder and are looking to be a victim. At your age I'd expect a bit more maturity.

Your original post in this thread amounted to "Fuck you PCEFX!" The responses were roughly 50% "go fuck yourself" and 50% "hey man, it's cool, here's how to fit in around here". You are shocked that you got negative responses? What did you think was going to happen?

Listen, I'm not trying to be an asshole, but despite being a grey beard, you've got some lessons to learn about social interaction. I'm trying to be nice (as I always do outside of FS), but you really aren't making it easy. Stop playing the victim and man the fuck up. You already admitted that no one has been unkind to you outside this call out thread. We aren't jerks here, but there aren't many people on this planet that would respond kindly to someone telling them to fuck off. Really, what did you expect? You are burning any good will you might have had here with each subsequent post.

Ok so you sent your stuff off to get modded thats cool and thats how you work up a rep on here with the other members. NOT by calling them out or insulting peoples family (Bernie's wife) I for one have no respect for some noob trying to preach about who we pick and choose who we let in our "gang". You sound like someone that has major issues to me. Sorry if we all didnt open you with open arms and welcome you to the fold when you didnt get any takers on your trades. SO what do you do? You blow up at us lol. What are you 10?
Hmm you are surprised when someone puts up a negative post after receiving one? Really? The point of that being who exactly do you figure you are to pick and choose who should join your boards and who should not? At the time of my first posts someone could have posted something but no you being the supreme well whatever you are decided that I am not up to your level. Someone posts something, even if you are not interested, could post something anything so they dont feel like the redheaded stepchild so to speak. Nice to know that whoever become your friend you will back them up even if they are wrong. You really surprised that someone would post something negative when ignored? Could be wrong but I think this is a public board, which means open to the public, which means you will get all kinds. Me I just would like to know where the measuring stick is to see if I might someday measure up to your standards. And really telling someone to go to hell because they dont see eye to eye with you well just aint right in polite society, not that anyone would ever mistake here for that.
Dude to be honest this thread is the first time i even seen you before. So from this thread is what i am basing you on. You bitched about how everyone jumps on the Noobs here and never gives anyone a chance in this forum. Then you take offense to someone saying fuck you. I mean what did you really expect the responses to be? I give anyone a chance and hell ill still give you a chance after this thread calms down cause thats just how i am. You prolly are a really cool down to earth guy and fun to chat with about games and shit. We was all noobs at one point or another but we took peoples razing all in good fun, Maybe you should too.

We rag on the resellers that sell on ebay for crazy prices cause if we didnt then the new people coming and getting into the TG16/PC Engine would think thats the going rate for those games.

Now seriously most of the gouging complaints seem legit to me. It is mostly members venting a bit about how a listing is $399 and sometimes 2 listings below you can see it roll for $50 dollars.
my problem with the whole gauging thing is beginners (and up until recently I knew jack about prices) get screwed beyond belief. If anything the forum can be a good tool for a begginer to find out various and fair price points.

I was only being half serious here. As for why I repeat my sentiment regarding US games being stupid, well, its usually in response to another thread with the same subject matter. There is a LOT of repetition here, as we all know. When some noob shows up and asks why such and such a game is so expensive for the millionth time, I will, for the millionth time, tell him to either shut up and pay it, or buy the superior JP release for 1/4th the money. Its a boring but valuable service, IMO. There are a lot of people that genuinely don't know that you don't have to pay $100 for Bomberman '93.

Step One:    Create WTB thread listing all of the rare/expensive US titles.
Step Two:    Completely ignore forum for over a year, making zero effort to become a part of the community.
Step Three:  Stew in your own bile because we 'ignored' you (the only feasible explanation, as it's just not possible that we aren't all sitting on stacks of Magical Chases, Lords of Thunder Demos, Dynastic Heros, and copies of Local Girls of Hawaii).
Step Four:    Start a thread saying that everyone on the forum is an asshole and mistreats new members.
Step Five:    Flail about like a fish out of water, completely oblivious to the fact that the majority of responders are relative new comers.
Step Six:    SKULL FUCK THE WORLD!

Also, Bernie, you're better than this! You're a class act, one of the most generous guys that I know, a repeat donor in my case and it's also evident from your dealings with people here. I dunno why you let this guy make you lose your cool like that! He was definitely not worth it...

From what I can tell, his account was dormant for a year, then comes out of hiding to essentially defend/shill for KingOfGames, that right ??? Eh, whatever, I dunno, who cares, I refuse to read beyond his first couple of posts as he seems to refuse to pick a point to break his single solid paragraphs. It seems to hurt my eyes, at least last night it did. I have trouble organizing my thoughts too, but I WILL F'ING make the effort, even if it's not grammatically proper!

I must say, in just about any other forum I've been on, anyone with that attitude would have been instantly ripped a new asshole, even if they'd have been correct.  As it was, I scrolled down, down, down before I finally found an even remotely agressive post.

But given the whole premise behind his initial post was hopelessly wrong - new members who follow general ettiquette are treated very well, and ermm, you're seeing adverts for eBay because it's targetted advertising.  I'm on eBay all the time, and yet I still get nothing but dating sites :(

No, that's still not it. The usual friction on these forums isn't due to noobs, rude or otherwise, it's the divide between gamers, collectors, and dealers (there are also engineers and programmers, but they get along with everyone). Most of us wear multiple hats, but it just so happens that the noobs these days are heavy on the collector/dealer side of the spectrum.

release them into the cutthroat world of PCEFX.

Lol I am still here. Gotta say that picture is the most hilarious thing I have seen in a long time. Was at work laughing at a lot of your posts, some almost actually pretty good. Any who scrolling around and then that picture. Must have been laughing for 5 min, could not even breath. Everyone looking at us like were lunatics, well we probably are, but that is besides the point. Two thumbs up.

You guys cannot get to me, not even close. I work in the oil, gas industry, outside all day no matter the weather, no matter how hard the work, and we pass the time ripping on each other. Nothing is sacred not even any family member. You cant touch this. The only regret that I have in this whole thing is that post that upset Sadler, I did even update it to say not you Sadler in it. Yea I messed up bigtime on that one.

Anyways Sadler, I will not only apologize but I am truly sorry. If you actually look at the line under the smileyface it did say not for you. And maturity? Um we all play games here lol, cant be all that mature or we wouldnt no? Anyhow for the rest of you that were jerks, RIGHT ON. Heck yea we live in the United States. It is our right to our own opinions, freedom of speech. People have died for the right to be a jerk. Being a jerk is not the problem here. Far as I am concerned a lot of you that did the negative posts just need to all get into a bus go to Arlington Cemetery and piss on the graves of all those veterans that have died to give you the right to be a jerk, the right to speak your minds. Who the hell do you think you are? Just because you are smarter, have better spelling, better grammar, aint black, Japanese, or some other race, just because your mind doesnt wander either from add or Alzheimer's, or have enough posts in a board. Those people gave their lives so we can be free, because were all the same. No one is better or lesser than anyone else. than anyone else. yea my mind wanders I hate it .I loose and forget stuff all the time. your prettier than I am and probably smell better too. But you people are pathetic because you think your better. This is a public board in which I have the same rights as you all do. you have the right to put me down and vise versa. I started this one because it was funny that ebay was advertising here. Threw that pot shot at Zeta because I knew we would get into it. He is pathetic not because he is a jerk, nope not at all heck I am too. My spelling sucks, my grammar sucks, dont have enough commas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,(That enough for ya?), oh and lets not forget he can read minds and knows everyone, HA HA HA HA I am just here to but stuff to sell on ebay or rip you off or whatever. He thinks he is better and sits in judgement, that is why Zeta is pathetic.

I served in the U.S. Army, I had a top secret security clearance, been bonded a couple of times. Does this make me better? No it does not . I served so that we all have our freedom. I am no more or any less that anyone else here. I am not going to throw stuff like that away just to get a few bucks of of someone, no matter what Zeta thinks. Really be a jerk, run me down as much as ya want to it wont bother me at all in fact it is entertaining. But when you go around thinking you are better than someone else, reason doesnt matter, you might as well just go piss on the Constitution of the United States, or a veteran, or the wounded warriors coming back from Afghanistan. People like you make me sick, people give their sweat, blood, tears, limbs and lives for you, you dont care at all, but you do have the right to sit in judgement of others. Just makes you pathetic is all. Not enough posts on a public forum, WOW. God Bless America, France, Britain, Japan,Canada, and all of the rest of the free world.

Exactly what American servicemen die for free speech, specifically? The vast majority of them died in the process of conquering (or failing to conquer) other countries that never invaded the US. These days most die either from friendly fire or IEDs they never would have had come in contact with if they had just stayed the fuck home. Who are these "free speech warriors"?

Not that this question has anything to do with anything, but CASs maniac rant sort of made me wonder. He (who probably never served anyway) made me realize I've been hearing that load of shit all my life and I'm not sure there is much to it.

Quote from: CAS on 05/08/2012, 09:18 PMLol I am still here. Gotta say that picture is the most hilarious thing I have seen in a long time. Was at work laughing at a lot of your posts, some almost actually pretty good. Any who scrolling around and then that picture. Must have been laughing for 5 min, could not even breath. Everyone looking at us like were lunatics, well we probably are, but that is besides the point. Two thumbs up. You guys cannot get to me, not even close. I work in the oil, gas industry, outside all day no matter the weather, no matter how hard the work, and we pass the time ripping on each other. Nothing is sacred not even any family member. You cant touch this. The only regret that I have in this whole thing is that post that upset Sadler, I did even update it to say not you Sadler in it. Yea I messed up bigtime on that one. Anyways Sadler I will not only apologize but I am truly sorry. If you actually look at the line under the smileyface it did say not for you. And maturity? Um we all play games here lol, cant be all that mature or we wouldnt no? Anyhow for the rest of you that were jerks, RIGHT ON. Heck yea we live in the United States. It is our right to our own opinions, freedom of speech. People have died for the right to be a jerk. Being a jerk is not the problem here. Far as I am concerned a lot of you that did the negative posts just need to all get into a bus go to Arlington Cemetery and piss on the graves of all those veterans that have died to give you the right to be a jerk, the right to speak your minds. Who the hell do you think you are? Just because you are smarter, have better spelling, better grammer, aint black, Japanese, or some other race, just because your mind doesnt wander either from add or Alzheimer's, or have enough posts in a board. Those people gave their lives so we can be free, because were all the same. No one is better or lesser than anyone else. than anyone else. yea my mind wanders I hate it .I loose and forget stuff all the time. your prettier than I am and probably smell better too. But you people are pathetic because you think your better. This is a public board inwhich I have the same rights as you all do. you have the right to put me down and vise versa. I started this one because it was funny that ebay was advertising here. Threw that pot shot at Zeta because I knew we would get into it. He is pathetic not because he is a jerk, nope not at all heck I am too. My spelling sucks, my grammer sucks, dont have enough commas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,(That enough for ya?), oh and lets not forget he can read minds and knows everyone, HA HA HA HA I am just here to but stuff to sell on ebay or rip you off or whatever.

That is one of the most trite, retarded post I have ever come across. Fuck that post and fuck this clown. He can go fuck himself with a big rubber dong. In his ass, in his mouth, Cas, make sure to fill every massive gaping hole so you'll stfu. If nothing else, do it for freedoms sake, because soldiers died so that you could. Fucking morons...everywhere....

Man, that last CAS post was awesome. I read the first few sentences about his laughing at the picture and apologizing to Salder and I was like "Sweet. We're all friends now and life is peachy." Then, somewhere around "Arlington Cemetery" and "pissing on graves" I was like "wait...WTF just happened?"

Post by: soop on 05/09/2012, 04:16 AM
I can't believe that whole post was
1: a dig at us for being "superior"
2: a thinly veiled rant about how he's better than us because of all the crap he's ever done and we loss on graves.

Aside from the fact he knows zip about us, can you get more hipocrytical?
