Surro Posted September 3, 2010 Posted September 3, 2010 I am on Passfire under the name Doug T. Just found this site and kind of checking it out myself.
KruseMissile Posted September 3, 2010 Posted September 3, 2010 I'm on there under the same nickname. Love it and my favorite part is the awesome deals that go through there.
OneEyeCharlie Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Same moniker over there. My goodness, Eric is a total "joy" lately. Tend to lose the message due to the manner in which it is delivered.
dagabu Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Same moniker over there. My goodness, Eric is a total "joy" lately. Tend to lose the message due to the manner in which it is delivered. Try being the target
OneEyeCharlie Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) Try being the target No thank you. I'd rather be eviscerated without anethesia, and watch wild hogs feed on my entrails. Edited October 21, 2010 by OneEyeCharlie
Algenco Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Eric's been on a roll lately, he calmed down for a week after Ned had a talk with him.Dag just had to rattle his cage again

Just remember one thing, he accuses others of what he hates the most about himself.

Just remember one thing, he accuses others of what he hates the most about himself. He's very transparent Before I joined I saw several comments about how rough it can get there, to be honest the only "rough" treatment I've noticed is from him.How many people have signed up with a guest acct only to see a post by Eric and get turned off?Quite a few I would imagine
dagabu Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 If there was a united front, he would go away.
OneEyeCharlie Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 How many people have signed up with a guest acct only to see a post by Eric and get turned off?I think that's a very valid point Al; one I hadn't considered. What concerns me even more, and maybe I'm merely projecting my own insecurities, are the people who are trying to learn and get better. They're already a bit intimidated by the "presence" of Swisher, Danny, Lloyd, John R, et al. Perhaps they're trying to screw up the courage to post a question or reply and then see one of Eric's scathing tirades and choose not to. To me, that is the far worse affect. This is a hobby/love affair with a very finite number of participants, and any knowledge that doesn't get passed on or any person who quits in frustration is a crying shame. Thus endeth the sermon

Thus endeth the sermon I think there are a lot like that It may be just a coincidence, but I posted about the 1lb NEPT tubes asking if the High Performance were needed for BP nozzleless.The answer was no, I ordered my tubes and the next day they were out!!The owner of Hobby Horse posted there had been a run on the tubes, was it coincidence? or were there several others with the same question but were afraid of being called a dumbass for asking?

Naw, your not a dumb ass for asking, Jim purchases thousands of tubes to get the prices he wants. He generally reorders when the numbers get low but in this case, there have been a lot of guys coming to the dark side, 4F is next week, a lot of fall shoots (I had him bring a bundle of tubes to our fall shoot) so the run was faster then he thought. NEPT takes their sweet time rolling them but they are the best so it is worth the wait. Once we get ready to sell tubes, I am sure we will run out fast too. I just want to say a word in Erics defense, he is a awesome fireworker. I truly do not think he understands his problem and may not be able to help himself. I have an Autistic child so I have a world of empathy for the mentally ill. BTW- Mike Swisher is a treasure, he will answer the dumbest n00b questions with grace and dignity... he certainly has for me
