Did you watch the UTube games, Marty vs Bobby Cotton?
It might be hard to explain and better if you watch it. After every shot, Marty swipes his cue sideways.
Mikka must have lost that part of the stroke.

Yeah maybe if he had spent more time in school he wouldn't have to be working as a doorman to eat. At least that's the last I heard.
Oh man, the Doorman from Hell!
Have a nice day folks, I'm going to cut you.

Well said. Case closed. :thumbup:
monstermash,
john's ranting and raving about things is simply in his personality. Much like Marty Herman is crazy, John HAS to play devils advocate. John is a very smart individual who challenges himself through debate. I'm not defending him. Nor do I agree with most things he argues and says. I appreciate and understand many of his positions. He simply enjoys debating/arguing. There's nothing wrong with that because, without people like him, the world would be such a dull place.
He's a pain in the taint and hard to understand sometimes, but understand that even if GOD himself logged in and said something on here that was 100% accurate, John would find a way to question it and turn it into a debate/arguement of some kind.
It's not you or the way you think or the words you say. It's John and that's ok. Sometimes you just have to accept the role as the bigger man and walk away. Sometimes, you just have to say "John, you're right.", even if you don't mean it and call it a day.
Trust me, it works! I've done it with people like, Arnot, Dave Sutton and even Mr Wilson! My life is a lot less stressfull as a result of it
Um, not quite. It's really easy to get me to shut up. Try looking at things from more than one perspective and admitting that there is more than one way to see things.
For example, when you know a person has a reputation for being a hothead and you deliberately push his buttons then why complain when he responds negatively?
The OP is out of line here. It's not as if he were attacked unprovoked. He provoked Marty since he admittedly knew of the guy's rep.
And in my case he instigated a problem by attacking someone and throwing flames onto the fire instead of following his own advice and seeking more confirmation privately.
That's my analysis. Now, to show you that I am not as you said, Monstermash was contacted PRIVATELY and given information he could have used to get the story. Giving him the benefit of the doubt and not ascribing any motivation to his ignorance filled post he was informed of the facts and invited to discuss them with the owners of the brand name.
Instead of doing that he took it even further to inflame a sensitive situation and distract from the issue.
This isn't merely a matter of disagreeing simply to be disagreeable. And I clearly stated MY motivation for casting doubt on his version of events.
Marty is a hothead, everyone knows that. But in my opinion Monstermash is an instigator (and a liar) and he should accept his part in the problem.
And if you all want to crucify me for having that opinion about THIS PARTICULAR EVENT and about Monstermash then go ahead.
I can take it.
wow.... I'm very hurt and close to tears. I'm thinking of calling in sick tomorrow because I have never felt what I am feeling now.
I have been on here almost 5 years and made close to 900 posts. I have made it clear many times in the past, that this reputation game means absolutely nothing to me. Having said that, I get many people that share a quick comment via that method telling me that I made a good post or that they agree with me. I would venture it's been several hundred of them. That to me, is what the whole purpose of it is. I don't respond back every time someone does that, in fact, I rarely do. If I want to have a back and forth communication, I just PM them.
Well tonight I got my first red rep. I'll let you guess who it was from
I guess it's because I pointed out that this person goes on and on, saying the same thing over and over in the threads he's in. Commenting on someone's posting style apparently is a very sensitive subject.
Anyways, I will have to do some serious reflecting on who I am as a person. I will have to stop enjoying the onepocket going on now and reconsider my purpose in life and how my opinion can have such a adverse effect on another human being.
Can someone point me to some sort of "group" that I can join, where I can share my feelings on this and perhaps recover from the trauma that has been bestowed upon me?
This truly is a dark day in my life. And it's got nothing to do with the storm rumbling outside my window.
Sincerely,
A very contrite and despondent CaliRed:sorry:

No.. I believe you absolutely wrong about John Barton.. He is enjoy a debate ..Yes.. But it seem to me that he a knowledge person that can not take easy and just swallow thing in front of him. He will investigate a little bit before jump in and make a comment on the thread.
For me, John comment is very logical almost on every thread or every post he jump in. In this thread. I also agree with John opinion about the OP.
The point he want to share us is simple.
1. He don't care whether Marty is an asshole or not ? He got a smooth transaction with Marty while many others not.
2. Monstermash is not a saint either. He ATTACKed Marty for saying in his face about how terrible his reputation and Marty bounce back and threat his life. It's a fair thing to me. When you attack people, you have to be ready for a negative response as a result.
3. IT IS NOT Fair for Monstermash to make such thread by saying negative about a person that actually just make a response to a negative thing he achieve from Monstermash.
It's a different thing, if Monstermash said a polite thing and Marty attack and threat him. if that is the case, i agree Monstermash has every right to make a thread like this for the intention that somebody else will aware about Marty.
He just lucky that many member here seem to agree with his opinion about Marty, if not i believe he will receive many red rep from us.
To say something bad and negative about someone is not a simple thing.
I question the Op about his intention to making this thread...Are you happy if a lot of us will hate Marty after read this thread or you just warning us for having a transaction with him or else...
Best

I actually let, ok forced my wife, who is a very well respected Phych nurse who regularly deals with Hannibal Lecters all the way down to alcoholics, to read this thread. She read the quotes from posters from Marty and she read JBs posts. You know what? She asked me if Marty and JB are one and the same.
As for the rest, all I can say is I can't possibly type what she said.
If I did, at the very least I would be getting a huge warning from Dave.
This is quite funny coming from someone who is a complete professional in her field. She just lost it completely, her diagnosis and verbiage was far from text book. I can tell you its seldom I hear her say the things she did.
The air was a little blue in the living room.
She did tell me I was also a complete idiot.
Take it for what its worth, maybe nothing.
So congratulations, Marty, JB, you just made the old lady blow a serious fuse.

Would I be out of line here if I said, WTF?!
Probably not other than Dedy is from Indonesia, the language gets lost in translation a bit but the thoughts are there.
But this Dedy, I don't know how you do things in your country, but this is North America.
Whatever Monster did or said to Marty does not warrant a threat on his life.
What he did was refuse to do business with him based on his reputation.
It is not and I repeat IS NOT a fair thing to respond by threatening a persons well being in that way. Get It?
I mean, you can cut all the Pee Pees off in your country if you want, but in NA, you don't cut people, not if you don't want to spend 15 years in jail.

I Agree.....
But if you ask me about my cue and i tell you that i don't want to have a transaction with you because you have a bad reputation. Now please tell me how you feel about my attitude. Do you feel okay with that or else??
So, if you were in "Marty" condition what will you do? you would angry with me wouldn't you?
He can choose a nice polite thing like " I'm sorry Sir, i'm not interest with your cue" or "i'm sorry sir, i already have a buyer of my cue" and many others polite excuse. and he still want to said that thing in front his face.. Get real
Of course Dedy, don't worry about your English, it is very good.
Some words get lost a bit in translation as I mentioned but your thoughts are there and clear.
You are probably thinking in your native language and typing in English.
Does that make sense?

I guess Monstermash did not want to drive fifty miles or more to find out Marty wants to trade his some piece of junk worth nothing and has no cash to speak of when cash was talked about up front and expected. Gee sorry you disagree. Maybe you should do a few deals with Marty before opening your mouth!!!!!!! And yes Blue Hog ridr has it right this is North America so even more reason to keep your mouth shut.

Speaking of going on and on. Apparently it means something to you since you even saw it, and even moreso that you took the time to write all this commenting on it. Just another hypocrite. Yes, I mean you.
If you didn't care about rep then you would just make it unseen and not pay attention to it.
You can comment on whatever you want to. Should I not have the same ability?
Sounds like she has some "issues" as well then if people she doesn't even know arguing on the internet made her blow a gasket. My wife just looks at all this rolls her eyes and says "kids".
Its just arguing, OK. I didn't know what it was, now I know. Thanks.
Blowing a fuse was a figure of speech. She really didn't blow a fuse figuratively, just a few choice words that I didn't feel right about typing.

The problem is John, that you just don't get it. Your too wrapped up in your own little world of petty jealousy and hate that you don't understand the REASON why I told Marty I didn't want to deal with him and that it was because of things he had done in the past.
Here it is for you so you can understand because apparently I have to explain it to you like you're a 4th grader.
If Marty hadn't screwed over my best friend several years ago I would have just ignored his email. Or like you suggested, I would have made up an excuse not to sell it to him. But the problem with people like him and you is you go around treating others with a complete lack of respect and act like there will never be consequences. I do not and, and will not stand for that kind of crap. If you hurt someone I care about be prepared to pay the price. Before you get your panties in a wad, I'm not referring to anything physical. What I'm referring to is exactly what happened with Marty and I. In very few words I simply told him that because he has been a douchbag all his life, people are starting to take notice, hence the "your reputation precedes you" comment I sent him in my first response. I can see it's going to be that way with you. You continually open your mouth and the more you say at the worse it gets. I know I will NEVER buy anything from you or Sterling in the future. And based on some of the pm's I received regarding this thread I can see there are a lot of folks that feel the same way. You are a plague here I have yet to see a thread where you are actually a positive contributing member of the AZ community. Because of the way you continually lash out at people I'm sure you'll end up getting banned again. I find it concerning that it hasn't happened again already. I've seen people get banned for life for far less than you have done.
You call me a hypocrite but you're the worst offender of all. You sit around all day and make comments that piss people off and you post in this thread that I'm the one at fault in all of this. You need serious medication John. Do the rest of the world a favor and get some help.
I always do everything I can to avoid these flaming threads and I have not read too much in this thread but I can say I have done a couple of deals with Marty with no issues and both parties were very please with the outcome. I have also done several deals with Roy Mallot who also has been dragged through the mud here, maybe I just have a knack for smooth transactions with challenging sellers/buyers.
I think everyone who types a negative post on here should probably walk away for a hour or so and come back and read it one last time to make sure they are still comfortable with what they have written. It is amazing how the venom of the written work comes right out in almost all cases.
Everyone take care.
