Saw This, and was wondering what the deal is?

[rsm]

Not sure what the item is that I had an issue with someone over shipping charges? If someone wants to enlighten me to that I would appreciate it and if Im wrong I will admit it and fix it but I have no clue as to what it is about.

I think they are referring to that situation where you gave someone a shipper account to ship something bulky/heavy (maybe a cab?) to you and he shipped it overnight or something at some ridiculous expense to you. That I do remember being discussed here.

They are saying you made the dude sell his only amp to pay you back or something, which I don't remember at all...

Anyway that is it I think...

Steve

I sorta remember that...didn't someone ship a huge rack or 4x12 next day air to Brad via FedEx on Brad's account?! IIRC, the shipping cost as much if not more than what was being shipped!

yes, thats what happened and then he went silent for weeks refusing to talk to me about it.

Here is the thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=74349&hilit=shipping

he eventually made it right after I shined a light on it publicly. I have no regrets about how I handled this.

Yep, straight up Brad! Handled well IMO (not that my opinion matters on this...).

FWIW, IME, you have always been straight up, honorable and true to your words. let the butthurt snivel and whine away at HC...

I recall the shipper dude blaming FedEx and going dark...good to hear you got it sorted out.

now, do you mind if I use your shipping account too?

I closed that account right after that.

so, you have a new account right? that'll work fine.

that was 2010. can't believe it was that long ago, or that I even remembered it at all. I remember some weird shit, but forget my wife's birthday, and things like that...go figure.

Brad,

I am convinced that you could have given the first batch to the people that lost due to Mark and you still would be an ass to that crowd. There is a lot a jealousy and envy in the world, especially the Internet. I doubt most of the Cameron haters have $3000 in gear total, let alone one amp.

I judge people by how they treat others and you have been pretty decent to many including myself. As long as you maintain that decency those of us that actually have money to spend will continue to consider your offerings.

Most all of the very negative talk about Camerons has to do with events that've transpired in the past with people getting outright ripped off rather than what the amps sound like. And I think most of the attacks on Brad came from those who previously posted here, though some others got some laughs because of the context -- just as I believe they would if it was any HC poster. I believe most others who've ever read his posts believes he is a cool guy. BTW, if you judge people based on how they treat others, why not stop acting above others who may not have your income?

Completely agree.

so if a cameron isnt a 80s amp then how did it get this stereotype, what would make people think something like that and give the amp a label of being a 80s amp.
Is it because he modded so many marshall amps over the years or is it the users and their videos they post.

It's because every clip of the amp online has someone either playing "Lay It Down" or "Bark At The Moon". Simple, really.

NOT TRUE!!! I played..."Alone Again"..

 

[crankyrayhanky]

I'm seriously disturbed by the homo-hatred
I couldn't care less who lays with who, and ridiculous that people need to proclaim sexuality as if their accused of a Capitol crime

Cool non response by Brad, not worth the time of day

Just read a few more pages over on HC....
is Ricky Bobby like a cult leader or something there?

I wonder if his boss knows he's posted 38,000 times? Most of it probably on company time.

Fuck all this, I'm sending my amp to Mark so he can remove the preamp tube covers.

Wait, So this ISNT an 80's forum?
Then I'm out of here...- cranks some EZO -

 

[sdrootsman]

The HCAF bashing just goes to show that this forum is equally plagued with complete idiots.

 

[steve_k]

Think I am going to go skin up.....

I don't know what this means exactly, but if there is any skin involved, I would dissuade you from taking pics or videos of this event.

Urban Dictionary: Skin up - To make a cannabis cigarette through the use of skins, or papers, hence the name.

What did I miss?

I think that's true of all forums, but it's typically a small (vocal) minority.

I'm personally cool with being stereotyped as an old 80's metal guy; it's not the only music I enjoy by any stretch, but it's accurate

 

[Chubtone]

It's nice to know that this forum can still muster a little bit of energy and shake our fists at those damn hooligans. If I didn't need to take a nap I would go right down there and give them a stern talking to.

And all this talk about us being 80's guys is just ridiculous. They don't know me. Where would they get the idea that I am some 80's guy?
