Hey Jakaz,
I just sent you a check this morning.
$ 500.00. Just like you asked.
Hope this will get you out of trouble.
I wont tell anyone.

This site needs some new members that aren't all from the south or midwest
What about this: http://www.arboristsite.com/showthread.php?t=41613 ?
I mean no disrespect to many of the very upright people I had the chance to be friends with out there, but the percentage of effeminate men on the east coast with no stones or a backbone is just sickening. I had more than my share of heated debates with tree hugging, PETA loving, gun-hating, and godless people while I lived and worked out there. I used to get flipped off and yelled at by weirdos on I-78 in New Jersey because I had an Icthus (Jesus Fish emblem) and an NRA sticker on my car. I was called a caloused murderer by co-workers because I liked to hunt deer to provide meat for my family. I was called a sick twisted parent for purchasing a toy gun for my five year old son for Christmas. Many were aghast that I took my son with me on a couple squirrel hunts. When we butchered our chickens as a family, I actually had some tell me that I was permanently harming my children's mental well-being by allowing them to participate in the killing, plucking and cleaning. The list goes on and on.
God bless,
Chris
The opening statement is this:
"We recently had several people call out another member with no basis that the member was guilty."
I rest my case.
And as far as people kicking a dead horse, I think people are just blowing off some steam and/or amusing themselves. It's a little bit of both for me.

Most of the people I think have an issue with Jazak and the comments he made....what he did to Ralph just gives people more of an excuse to bash him. I also don't agree with most of the comments jazak made.
The way I see it are
1) Jazak didn't fulfill his committment on purchasing the saw. This happens all the time.
2) Ralph used the saw for 25-30 tanks instead of trying to sell it which caused its depreciation. It was his choice to use it, instead of selling it.
3) Ralph didn't lose any money.
4) Ralph wouldn't have had any problem selling the saw for his asking price to someone else.
5) Jazak gave Ralph plenty of indicators that he wasn't ever going to send money and he was full of BS.
6) Ralph was caused some aggravation over the whole ordeal.
7) Jazak is quite the character.
Too bad for all concerned this saw didn't hook up with somebody here.
These are what I believe to be true. I myself don't see how Ralph lost any money because of Jazak.Hmmmmmm, Brad how are you able to state these as facts? Particularly #3. I do agree with most of them though, particularly #7 But you forgot #8
8) trimmmed told him from the get, that the guy was a flake

Check out the pics on page 2, as nice as it was @ $525, good ole Ralph went out and bought a new bar as well.

Brad, no, I didn't lose any real money per se, its more the principle of the thing, combined with the big shot attitude on the dump truck thread that he's making 1/2 a million without trying, but can't pay his bills. I finally heard enough big shot routiene and figured I'd remind him of this. I actually expected he'd calm down a bit and at least gimme a reason why he decided not to bother, but instead he went beserk and threatened to sue me if I ask about it ever again. anyone on this site whom knows anything about me, knows I don't respond favorably to threats, much the opposite really.
why didn't I tell him to fook off and sell to someone else? well, he kept in contact for a while and made it clear that he really wanted the saw and we've all had times when nothing goes right and pay is a little slow. so I was understanding, maybe for too long. as time progressed and this kept going the way it was going, I decided to say heck with it and not ever try to sell on here again. one bad apple spoils the whole batch kinda thing. no, I don't lump everyone together in the same batch as him, but I'm sure if you read to here, that you can understand where I'm comming from. I've had enough headache on this first time to want to try it all over again.
Now I'm sorry you have been playing devils advocate Brad, I really am. afterall, please tell me where I did wrong by him? I was honest, understanding and patient. some folks like to confuse kindness for weakness. again, if you know me, you know thats not the case. I can get along with anyone, but when I reach my limit, I'm done. most times someone ends up very hurt, and I have an extreemly long memory. I'm not trying to talk tough, I'm just being honest. I could see if both parties were perhaps wrong Brad, but thats not the case here. to infer that I am somehow to blame for even a part of this is not acting very nicely.
Thats enough for now. I'm beat. hard day and I didn't need to come home to this anyway.
thanks to all who read the posts and understand what transpired, and why I mentioned it to him in the first place.
-Ralph
