Cast crank from SCAT

Hmmn.
"Missed the entire point" with this guy there is no point, he is as bluntly planted as a pogo stick, I'm sure most will agree.

>>>all around it were threads bitching about CB products, bad crank threads, slow shipping, etc., and NO defense whatsoever. Apparently silence IS a virtue for these guys cause they keep shoveling garbage<<<

mark, take your whiney-ass crap somewhere else... we don't want to hear it... if you don't have direct personal experience, SHUT THE HELL UP.

same goes for jake raby... another little man who tries to build himself up big by constantly cutting down other companies whenever possible.

I buy from CB. Now make sense of that, Mr. Twist-it-around-to-fit-your-needs. If anyone is whining here it's you.

I think you're the one that needs to take it easy, you angry little man, you. You quote a lot, but you say little, and what you do say is abusive and crass. Now ease up before you pop a vein. I'll continue to post all I want. If you don't like it, don't read it. You have that choice and I suggest you take it if it scuffs your Buster Browns that much.

Dan,

Get a little respect, atleast capitaize my name for crying out loud!

yeah I'll agree I'm small, and gonna stay that way, do you want a bigger pissing contest again?

Your "Buddy" was the best at thrashing other people, hell they are still making money off of that....last time I read that blue book there was more indirect slams on CB in there than anyone else....who's side are you on, you can't play both sides of the field....

BTW, everybody, despite my "Jerkism" toward Dan, and our indifferences, I still respect him, atleast he has balls.

There was once a quote in the ACVW world. "IF G--- ---g slams what you are doing, you must be doing something right" (you fill in the blanks, and I'll stay out of trouble.)

bottom line for both of you guys is that your crap misrepresents the acvw industry.

newbies come out here, and *hopefully* they can tell that mark harney is a nobody from nowhere who has a attitude problem... but jake raby? he's in the industry.. and he's plenty good enuf that he doesn't need to constantly cut down competitors to build up his own business.

Bottom line for you is that you are critical and abusive, and have a real social shortcoming. Must be bad parenting. You know nothing about me, clearly, nor anything about what was meant by my comments. You are short sighted and love the sound of your own voice. And you're an angry little man. I try to respect everyone but in your case, I'll certainly make an exception. You missed the whole point of what I had to say, and you are making a fool of yourself.

I don't recall exactly every occasion Jake made negitive reference to his competitors. However I do remember that it usually has a specific reason or product included. After reading the blue book I doubted that only 1 man could be right while an entire industry had it wrong. Not having the knowledge to really know if G.B.s logic and principles were correct in many cases, as an old newbie I am left having to judge how true his info is based on what kind of aproach he took to his work. I saw a man that seemed arrogant, whose info might be closed minded. Understand here, I am just a consumer who like any other has to make decisions based on whatever I can. We ask questions and decide whether the "experts" really know what they are talking about, or are they B.S.ing. I know Jake doesn't need me to defend him, but as far as building himself up by putting is competitors down, read the Blue Book and read over this forum to get a sence of where Jake is comming from and it is pretty obvious who approaches their work with an honest spirit of learning. I'll put my trust in a learn-it-all before a know-it-all anyday.

As far as having balls, spouting off on others usually takes more ignorance than balls

Bottom line:

Dan is a really good instigator, and I challenge him to find a single post where I DIRECTLY slammed anyone....I argue for one reason, because I work my ass off and try as much as possible, when something does not work I remember it...

Dan, I think everyone here knows that Myself, Shad and John C are constantly getting severely at odds with YOU, but look around it does not happen to anyone else, why??? ever thought that maybe you have a way of really pissing someone off on the net???

I do appreciate the fact that to an extent you respect my work, all crap aside we are all in this together.

He doesn't piss me off at all. I have a long fuse, but then you have to when it comes to online exchanges. It's very frequently the case that what someone says gets misinterpreted. Inflection and emphasis are really lacking in correspondence that is not face to face.

The problem is that he had it in for me from the beginning of his addressing my comments, and never once tried to get to the real meaning. He simply took a little piece of it that got his blood up, and ran with it, trying to make it seem I had it in for CB Performance, which is simply not the case. I find it rather small of him, nonetheless a little entertaining as well that someone with his experience and professional standing would act like that. I wasn't surprised though, after reading some of the old threads some time ago. I remembered the messy happenings of those threads, and it's clear things haven't changed.

We are all in this together, and I respect all you guys, so long as you respect me, whether I am right or wrong. John, Jake, and the rest have been very informative to me, and Dan has too, but there's that other thing, and I am not about to act like sheep when he comes stampeding in mouth-a-runnin' with the brain turned off. He's got more brains than that, just needs to read a little slower.

What a mess this thread has become. Anyone wanna buy a cast crank?

How about a rants forum? I know about 5 people that would run the server out of space.

Dan, Is this direct enough for you???

YOU ARE AN jerk!

Yes I might be hurting myself, but I really don't care, obviously you do not either. Professionalism takes a back seat to being ranover by someguy that chases people with a video camera.

It's ok, he just made my point for me. Nice when you can sit back and watch someone make a fool of themself. He'll never get it. He missed the whole boat on what I had to say.

Angry little man.. lol.

It's a good thing that pressing "record" is a no brainer, otherwise he'd be out of a job.
