Listen ass. If you have a point that you want to make with me, or think you know me well enough to discuss - then get in touch with me. Don't be a limp dick behind the computer screen.
Steve
The point would appear to be clear, and by your defensive response, struck a nerve. Perhaps you'd like to explain why you "hate" being taken advantage of when it's you, but don't give a shit when is someone else?
It's a rhetorical question, FYI.
The point to be made, is you lurking around threads commenting on shit you have no business commenting on.
Steve,
I have seen Rogue's comments in other threads, it is obvious he is very jealous of you and your ability to buy gear. Perhaps Rogue should worry about bettering himself and not worry about other people and he'd have some money for gear too. Steve, an unintended consequence of success is people like Rogue can't compete economically and that bothers them. In their mind they feel the need to prove they are better than you and this is the result. Laugh it off, anyone that see's his posts can quickly figure him out.
Really? You don't get the joke? To me, and YMMV, Rogue's point is that in one recent thread Steve is patronizing a known thief who has screwed a multitude of people on this and other boards, knows it, and says "Anybody that stays in this long enough will eventually be fucked over along the way, unless you are shopping at your favorite mom and pop store," to which Rogue replies "And rewarding that behavior is the most obvious, results oriented, action to take. But hey, the tonez!" and here Steve is lamenting being screwed over by a thief. If that isn't a giant karmic kick in the dick I don't know what is. That has nothing to do with how much money Steve makes, or jealousy concerning it, it has to do with clean business or lack thereof and engendering more of the same by supporting crooks.
For what it's worth, I hate thieves as well, I consider the behavior reprehensible and rampant in the music instrument business, but then again I don't knowingly support thieves either.
