This being a test section I figured I might as well ding my dong

checking the board after a while and saw the BAD/GOOD thread about magnus.

all about improfessionalism of the professional sight or true professionalism of the professional side aside one thing was quite funny.

One dude just constantly being annoying.

Last thing I would do is to post in the same thread and point it out to him but JEEZ, why are some poeple so annoying?


move on guys

Well, not that this isn't extemely obvious as to who you're talking about. But I had actually written up a huge response somewhat like this, and was going to put it in that thread until deciding that I didn't want to clutter up the post with any more useless nonsense.

I like to follow a few basic guidelines. If the post is in a nontechnical or test section such as this, sure have some fun with it and be yourself. But when it's a serious matter, someone needs help, etc. then the childish posting should be done away with and people should try to post in a useful and atleast semi-professional matter.

/rant off.

hopefully you are not talking about my post in there....

I've spoken to Andy about making that forum more like Ebay's feedback system. No replies at all...just each person posting their perspective.

I'm up for opinions on this idea

But yes, that whole thread pissed me off (aside from Marco and Andy, nobody really belonged in that thread. I had my ban stick out already )

Same here, I didn't like seeing anybody else in there. I know how I feel about Marco, but I don't need to pollute that thread anymore then it already has been.

thank you.

Mark and Andy, as I mentioned above, I had actually written a response in that thread and it had to be atleast half a printed page long, but didn't post it because I knew it didn't belong and was just slightly annoyed by the lack of maturity by people who had no business posting in the first place. I just didn't want to become one of those people myself.

I'm glad you guys are open to opinions/suggestions about the forum. I would have said something earlier (through PM or email, etc.) but didn't want to overstep my bounds or anything. The ebay feedback-type system is definitely a decent idea but I'm not sure it really leaves enough room, depending on how you were planning on implementing it. I think basically it's a lack of maturity and constructive thoughts that lead to these types of things.

For the most part I agree with you PPG that Andy and Marco were some of the only people that should have been posting in the thread, but there really are a couple of ways that the forum could go. You could either have each specific topic dedicated solely to resolving the issue between the buyer and seller, with multiple threads for each person and business or allow anyone who has had a good or bad experience post in a thread already established previously (if there has been one) for that particular individual/business.

It really all comes back to the professionalism and maturity of the people posting though. And as we witnessed in the Magnus thread, both established businesses and individuals can obviously have their share of immaturity. In the end it might unfortunately just come down to deleting more unnecessary posts and giving more members warnings (or as you put it, bringing out the ban stick!) to keep the business related forums on a more professional level.

Well, that's enough from me. Sorry for taking up space.

Who's Marco?
Sorry, just had to do it at least once, might lighten the mood up a bit!
Cheers to all!

Yeah Steven, thanks, there needs to be some sort of reply mechanism... there are too many details for a one-liner like eBay.

Although, we did talk once years ago about a similar system... before ebay existed, where we could score dealers, and then track it.
Maybe that's what we're talking about.

Well if its ok for people to post good stuff on a "good guy" why not post something as well in the "bad guy"?

If i had a problem with a "bad guy" il post and same if it was a "good guy"

The problem Rick, is that when it's an open post forum, other people seem to feel the need to add their own two cents worth.

Sometimes, it's very good, very helpful, and sheds new light on the situation.

But, at the same time, there are also a handful of people who seem to take nothing seriously, and just post to be a post-whore, or stick their own useless post imbetween.

There's a time and a place for everything...

Maybe there should be a post in there about somebody using fake paper to buy parts. What do you think Rick?

well like i said before, if someoen calls me a week later sayign its fake, how would i know its mine?

I told him before i would trade

and you dont even know me to say **** like that.

so think what you want

Now that you insist SO MUCH on hearing this, here it is:
Quite CLEARLY THE biggest annoyance in that thread was your highness and you seem so capable of being incapable of grasping that.


It wasn't about a good guy thing in a bad guy thread which sometimes is a very good idea.
Oh come on!!! you have to be smarter than that man!!
But refer to Mike Jackson's reply where he quoted your so many posts.

You just stayed off topic for as long as there was fuel to burn there!


For this and a few other things Marco would never get my business IF I had any. HIs level of arrogance would probably cause my blood vessel to clot. However it wasn't about Magnus or whatnot. It was about the thread being **** on by those who know nothing about the situation.

ture, Im hoping Noah Wiles reads this as well!!!

"you dont know **** about me so dont post"

As for the magnus one, well i know marco and Im just putting in a good word

We know enough Rick. From your fake paper to your bad pistons...

right......

and you also know the peopel I sold stuff too?

O wait, thats rite u know everythign i been selling right?>??

I sold over 20 stuff to people and they all been happy, well not the piston guy but really do you knwo me? noooo

Is it not possible to get the message that you are trying to convey across without the use of *'s representing expletives?

Also, before you submit a post read over it. Maybe we need to have a spellcheck incorporated into the UBB (although it still wouldn't help with grammar). Properly presenting your thoughts goes a long way in regards to getting respect.

WeRd Yo!

Rick, you make me laugh boy. I wonder what you ended up doing about the pistons anyways? Did Tyler Gowan get his money back or you just content to have a few unhappy customers! You never returned any of my calls, even went so far as to pretend like you were someone else on the phone but mean while, here on the board you kept saying how you'd "exchange" it. Funny how you wanted it back. What I should have done is straight up taken it to authorities and let them deal with you!
Just for your info when dealing with "customers"
I Professional business man makes sure all his deals work out and if that means taking a loss then so be it! It's obvious that you’re no where near that level so stay content to keep posting your wicked deals and huge savings I'm sure you'll go places!!
I’m glad you’ve done like over 20+ deals that went good, cause if you screwed all of them then you’d have a bigger problem on your hands.

K well let me tell you my side of the story AGAIN.

I took out $40 from the bank machine and got change so I can pay you $30. I did pay you the $30 and a week alter you tell me its fake?
and I do have a bother and i guess he did pick up the phone so dont come on here saying i pretended to be someone else. So dont say **** all if you dont.

Maybe I should call people too that paid me and tell them a week later that the money is fake....

You're paying with counterfit bills?

I guess we now have tool of the month

I didn't come right out and say it, but I used the term fake paper instead. But since you asked, yes. Fake twenty followed up by the bad pistons sent to the poor guy in Ottawa even though the guy at Mississauga engines told him they were crap.

This is starting to sound like a good-guy, bad-guy post, maybe you should tell the story there.

I started this thread so I have a feeling that I own it.(this is in test forum so I could say sh|t without getting some)


So Noah,
there is nothing wrong with fake money as long as the Queen is not portraid in bikinis. and even then it is depends on which decade the picture is from

None of you guys know the story, so Noah Wiles you can stick a $20 bill up your ****ing ass


lets keep the topic back to what it started for.

Maybe if someone pays me for a part and a week later say its its fake?
or maybe PM someone and tell them "hey buddy guess what, the $20 I got from you 3 months ago was fake"

and Mr. Noah Wiles ill like to see in person for a nice chat and not the net

Noah's a good guy and has no reason to lie.

You, Rick, post immaturely and about 50% of your posts embarrass yourself.

“FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT… you **** **** sucker… etc etc.”

I think you just need to calm it down a level.

You might be right, I don’t know you so I won’t say a thing about the ‘fake’ money nor scuffed up pistons but from how you post, I can tell you are a tool.

correction... a tool on probation.

what he said!
as if it needed explicit comment.

Amin sure you have the Queen in a bikini, aslong as her head is photshopped onto a hot bikini model.

I leave that little photoshop task to you. Go for it!

Since we are in a test thread and I have 4 pennies in my pocket, being the sharing type, I will give half away. Not for nothing but anybody, anywhere, anytime could pick up a fake due to the proliferation of counterfit small bills. For this reason the majority of retail stores and bars dont take large bills and/or check all bills $20 and up. I say to keep the peace we take a collection of pennies to replace the 20 bucks....I still have two left so I will mail em

what I dont understand is why everyone is on his side when they dont know the story.

I took it from the bank machine, how did I know it was gonan be fake?

Not like any one cares or thinks im taking ***t but your guys dont know the story.

What I see alot on this site is if someone is a "bad guy", people tag alone and pick on them.

Frist of all no one knows the full story or the "bad guy" in person.

Maybe it's because we like Noah, and we don't like you

We also like boobies, right Waldo?

As long as they aren't my boobies.

dont like you too a**hole

I now have a strange sense of accomplishment for some reason.....

and what the **** does that mean?!


Nick,
You accomplished getting him to sign his "Tool Award Acceptance" ONCE AGAIN!

nothing to brag about!

Your English teacher should be proud.

Ok, this is getting rediculous. Rick, you wonder why people don't like you, yet you are constantly bad mouthing well known members of the board, swearing unnecessarily in your posts and even posting that a board administrator is a bad guy because he was doing the job he's supposed to do on the board and banned you?

I guess if we all went by your rules, I could create a bad guy post about you and say, "I don't like Rick because he sells parts!" Someone isn't a bad guy simply because they did their job, someone is a bad guy because they did their job poorly. And from everything I can see by the way you act here, I think Tim did his job perfectly by banning you the first time.

This isn't high school, you seem to be stuck there for some reason. This is a board where people go to get help with problems they're having with their cars and have some friendly conversations with other people that share their interest. I'm normally a nice person and would keep my mouth shut, but it really gets on my nerves. If people could even comprehend what you were typing half the time and every post you write wasn't hostile maybe you'd be joking along with us right now.

Here, maybe this will help you;

That is all.

Rick's gone.

I am dissappointed.

It sucks the fun right out of this thread.

Amin, one thing that really pissed me off about you is that your sig, Fireball II link doesn't work and '00 Accent is a Quebec site. FIX IT.

HAHA, i was thinkin the same thing about the quebec link...

OK losers

The Quebec thing was because I had that car registered in Quebec for when I was in montreal.

I am going to change the sig to include the new solar car.

what now?

Newsflash!! Amin at work with his new project!!

Can the watermellon work as a battery for the solar car while still quenching the drivers thirst?

the guy actually does look somewhat like me,

and if nothing he is of the same breed

Whoa that is uncanny!

Seriously... who has web cams like that? HELLO 1982!

Oh no don't get me started with the photo-chopping, I don't have time today I actually have some work that needs to get done!! LOL

Rick Inacio was back, as Jose Machado...

Nice name lol.

It's pretty sad when people such as Rick have to stoop to the level of deception to make a few bucks.

You guys are photoshop whores lol!

That's more like it...

That's God Damned Creepy.

Waldo, don't you think I would have done that?
I did, and it just didn't look right.

It's creepier when Amin holds his own head

Anyhow, work on thoes skills man, you'll get there one day.

I think Amin is getting .. A Head .. of himself on that mission...

Now can you guess which one of these people is really Amin?

The resembalance is remarkable... =)

I would be the first one to say he probabely is not the sharpest tool in the toolbox but let him be!

OMFG That is some funny stuff, So glad I started that!

Rick just emailed me this nonsense:

soo do you know the full story for you to be posting i was giving out 20's?
I dont think so

I told him i would trade it back, even told him where I work so before you
start posting BS get your story right

- I've never even talked to this guy before he makes no sense.

Notice how he's freaking out about the $20, but doesn't mention a word about the pistons?

I almost bought those pistons, I'm glad that I needed 40 over and not 20 over pistons or I would have.

Haha, that's fantastic Adam! Weren't we just saying the other day that the reason that we must be so mean and sarcastic to people is the amount of them that are complete idiots and must be informed of this? Hmm.. Perhaps some of the Computer Security and Investigations training should be "tested" on someone?

Army of Amin

Re Rick, it's funny how he keeps mentioning that he even told me where he worked to meet up but everytime I tried calling him, he never picked up the phone or returned my messages!!
it's done and over with now so let's all move on!

I second this... he's not around now anyways.

I did tell him he could have another shot, if he returned the $20... so you might yet see that.

it is a bit creepy when you know all those pictures!!

you are ****ed :DD:D:

At first I just saw the chick on the left, and it scared the hell outta me.

I think you mean your other left.

LOL, ya I do sorry about that Amin...

you do sorry?

I do no problems


(I also like doing females but my luck is minimal)
