Especially with the internal 5G antenna. My Astra Zeneca has had a disappointing improvement in 5G but I did go buy a new Apple product…

Evening Todd...been a damn hot one everyday this week. 105-110 deg heat index every afternoon, and the humidity has cranked it up a notch or ten as well...hangars have turned into ovens. Hope your week was good.

 

[GCJenks204]

Morning/ Evening All.

Enjoying a relaxing “ bachelor “ week.

Sup fuggers?
A few of my wife's flowers got flattened, deck furniture pushed around and a few small branches broken off trees but nothing major.
It seems it just missed me and northeast of me got hit hard.

Been days since I was here. Going to go back and start reading this thread again over the next two day. I'll try to address what I can at this time. I may walk away. Posted to Daves posting of my name in the repair thread just to get things rolling here.


I'm not fraud, a fake or a thief.

Me proving that might be pointless now.
Messing with a mans income and name are very serious business to me but I have no advertising here.
I've been extremely careful to play within what I thought were the rules.

Me selling a saw here is within the rules. Me quoting a price on my saws port work was a question to you all, whom I assumed would comment. It was not a sales pitch. If it was a sales pitch it would be up for sale in the for sale thread. That is the rules here, correct?
Now I'm asked not to sell or trade my saws here, why?
I did no wrong and broke no rules.

Placing a price on my own work is somehow breaking the rules. I did under price my work, sorry. Please explain to me Randy what rule I broke or need to be vetted for to sell a saw here?... Serious on that.
How about all the guys that advertise repair work? Were they somehow vetted? They all get work from here. Maybe I'm wrong.
If I'm deleted then I'm wrong. Not sure myself if that was a question or a statement.

When people get tired of you they make you go away. I don't work like that. I walk away or prove my case. Haven't decided on which one, yet. It might be decided for me and I'm ok with that.

This hurts me and seeing all those afraid to speak out is a shame. People want to say something but I asked many not to for now. If you want to for yourself and not on my behalf always do that. Never back down but know when to walk away is the hard choice we all make. It's easier to turn and look away or turn your back, remember that because it's true!
In my house these colors don't run. My custom made Desert Storm Tshirts said that.
Mob mentality usually rules. Fact of life people. You can never change that as a whole species. Only comes in small batches like maybe here or maybe not.

So we know this, I'm full of chit or am I.
Let's find out if we can.

1.
I'm guarded and never show my work with good reason I may discuss.
2.
No one can vette me but a few here and most won't, scared to get drag in one might suspect. No complains so I'm ok with that.
3.
After spending thousands here on parts from members... thought more would have spoke up about goid dealings. Their is over fifty of you out there possibly never seeing this post. Some did I'm sure.
4.
I'll send anyone pics on anything. Have to trust you first. I don't publish any of my work on the web. Pics mean nothing! Fact!
5.
If I weed out bad sellers to be deleted would that make me one of the bad guys? Randy deleted one for me but him and John laughed at me when I complained about another deal that was sour on my end. Forget about that, moving on but Wayne caught it. Almost didn't come back that time.
6.
Why lie when nothing is to be gained?
7.
I did all this not trying to attract attention for years for what reason? Give me one good reason, anything, try it out, please.

To be continued.
No need to address any of this just right now with a response.
I'll be back with more question to ponder and hoping my words are clear and concise.

I will ask Randy questions directly and he can answer then or not or delete me.

This will take a few weeks for me to get through.
I'm very busy and things are already in motion that require most of my time. I will not detract from that. If I do so I work outside again this winter.


Good day men be safe out there.
Got my pics from my PMs so I'm out for now.

Stick around if you want. But you ain't no different than anyone else. Nothing is special or top secret in working on a saw. If you want to sell your work here, your are gonna post up some build threads of the work you intend to sell. If that is too much to ask, then don't sell here. Pretty simple. Like I've said....the ball in in your court.

@jacob j. has an 066 for sale right now. To me that Ad is the quintessential format. No one should have any question or concern over that deal and knows exactly what they are getting.

The ultimate slacker @stihl livin had said the sky got ugly by him but just rain. But he could have been tripping out off fumes from his van seat.

I'm very close to giving up on trying to moderate this forum Gary. I've stuck with it because I told Bruce I would do it. But the headache of doing it has become more than I'm willing to endure.

Can't like that. I enjoy the community and the people associated with it. I would be concerned it would devolve rather quickly without you. No slight to @Woodpecker as he does a great job too or the other mods but your experience and history with other forums helps guide good decision making.

I couldn't bothered to read Kenny's post today, I just don't have enough fuchs to give. However I would offer Kenny the advice that if he wants to start selling services here he should follow the example of @Stump Shot and put some work in to the field on his own dime and let people see how good the work is before jumping in at $300 for a mystery port job.

I'm still not taking sides on Issue of the Week, but i would like to remind you of your very own signature, second line. Its a motto i support.

Kenny,
Talk to Randy, get a plan and do it, he ain't the booger man(even if he eats one from time to time) and will steer you right and it will help get you off on the right foot running.
