A Big Ao Welcome To.......

[minimag187]

Welcome aboard to the best forum on the 'net! I never get to make it down to big tournaments. I live wayyyy too far away (Montana).

Next insult will be moderated as "Disruptive Behavior."

Maybe I am misreading things but I don't see anyone being insulting above. I hope you don't mean my joke about half asians. As I said I am one of those weird mixtures myself

I think that Bea's picture of WAS was (redundant...sorry) poking a little fun at us. We have a thread about the two of them and so she snaps a picture. Great pics by the way. Speaking of being insulting I have to say that you look very cute in all the pictures (as all half asians do of course) except for that hideous tongue ring! I'll never understand those...:P :)

Miscue, care to explain your post?

To set the record straight, I was playing paintball before I ever released any products for the industry. :)

Bea was an amazingly charming young lady. She has class, style, and a refreshing attitude. I was bummed that I didn't get to see her play.

Nope, no glasses. I have perfect vision (even after more than 27 years of sitting in front of a monitor). My vision was good enough to see the guy bunker me in the Ricochet night shoot game. ARGH!

Oh yeah, this changes everything....

Thanks for clearing that up Jim.

Shartley you are such a bewb! An who is this "we" anyway? If YOU have a problem with someone why don't you just say that YOU have a problem with them and not try to drag the rest of us into it!

And anyone reading this thread can clearly see that Bea was trying to smooth things over and YOU want to turn this into the "bash WAS thread" AGAIN (and again and again ...)

I'd roll my eyes at you but they'd get sore!

LOL Yup, that was what it was. I forgot that no one can ?not like? anyone, or even state that on AO unless the object of that dislike is Shartley. Then it is quite alright!

Sharley the martyr! It's pick on Shartley day!

?We?? I think you might want to read what I wrote again. I was using ?we? as a generality for all humans, and was talking about a generality in liking or disliking someone or something? not specifically Jim Drew. LOL Not to mention that I think you can easily find what I personally think of Jim Drew on many threads on AO, and I was not the most vocal about it.

There's pleny on AO about how you feel about Jim Drew - its this that I was refering to ..

Bea, Bea, Bea?.. We never said his products were not great. Our problem with Jim Drew is not his product, it is what he SAYS.

Also, the reason we have a problem with Jim Drew is NOT because WE fall short ourselves and may not have as ?wonderful? resume as Jim does.

And again, while Jim may say whatever BS he says ... you love to wrap the AO mantle about yourself as if you somehow represent the rest of us. And then you like to try to explain it away ("liking or disliking someone or something? not specifically Jim Drew" - sounds pretty specific to me). Its alright with me if you don't like Drew or his company or his postings or whatever it is you don't like, but let's be clear its what YOU don't like, not what WE don't like.

Yeah Fatman, I hear you. Your points are taken for what they are worth. And note that I didn?t feel the need to label you in any way.

Yup, you really showed me?.

Of course you didn't label me, I'm too hard to label. Plus you never know which version of Mr. Hyde you're dealing with at any given moment. But rest assured I have no delusions of "showing" you anything. Unlike myself you are quite predictable. You will continue thinly veil your thoughts in intellectualism and insist on getting the last word.

Thank you for hijacking MY thread, again, Sam. Very thoughtful of you to keep everything on topic, and not bring your personal attacks on another member....(and yes, I am being very sarcastic).

This attitude of your is the reason I deleted your first posts, and Tom had to delete your and your wife's next posts. This is NOT YOUR THREAD FOR YOUR PERSONAL OPINIONS ABOUT JIM, BEA, OR HOW AO IS RUN.

I asked you before to take it to another thread, but you insist on interjecting insults and poor taste into your posts on my thread. Well, as an AO member with certain abilities afforded to me, I am going to close this thread because of you. If I were not a moderator, I would save this thread, send an edited version to Bea, and then DELETE IT ENTIRELY, since the happy spirit of it has been tarnished by you.

I don't understand why you insist on pushing the limits. Dave
