I'm gonna take a seat over here in the corner, prop my feet up, open a frosty Dr Pepper and watch the fur fly. Life is way to short for all of this.
 
This is ridiculous- One person writes what he thinks MAY be an injustice but his so called pen turning friends tear him apart for trying to warn other about a possible rip off situation. No wonder so many of the old timers have quit contributing and posting. JMHO.
I don't think others are ripping him apart, there are just a lot of people on this forum and you get a lot of responses, which seems like you are getting ripped.
We are after all encouraged to participate and contribute.
This just goes to show however the importance of fact checking before starting a thread like this.
I applaud him however, for after hearing from a few, that he might have made a mistake, he is emailing the person to get clarification.

never mind- disregard my post-

Mike, You did the right thing in deleting your post, you were getting ready to be chewed up for no reason. I didn't get a chance to read it but in your earlier post you hit the nail on the head as to why so many are posting less and less all the time. You can count on the fact that there are a dozen or so members who live at their keyboards just waiting to pounce on you for the least little thing willing to spend all day making a mountain out of a mole hill just for the sake of a good argument which goes on and on and on and on.... as seen above by several of our "right-fighters"!

I was going to send this in a private but felt is need to be said out loud.

Truer words were never spoken and good for you for posting this. We need to go back to the days of posting about spelling errors not which side of the fence your legs are on when we want to stir a pot. This is why so many of our old time good contributing members have bailed ship. At one time this site use to be about pen crafting and advancing our skills.

Thank you to the long standing members who have ignored most of these types of post and continue to try and advance our hobby.
Oh, nouw ware goen aftar spellers!:monkey:

I just read back through this whole thread....And I did not see anyone being "ripped apart" or even heavily critized. There were one or two posts mildly critical because the original poster posted before finding out the facts. Several posts mentioned the ebay listing being lifted from the PSI Catalog and a few mentioned a different site referring to overcharging. No one got nasty - even the critical posts were made using factual statements. That's what a casual conversation forum is for.
I agree, there are all kinds of personalities here, from different cultures and different locations on the globe. What you may call ripping someone may be just someones way of politely saying "I think you got it wrong".
