NON "ACTION KNOCKER"

I would publickly like to say that written WORDS are very powerful and have an affect on the mind, and are more likely to be remembered and BELIEVED above someones own words, so if you are going to accuse someone of dishonesty on these forums please be VERY VERY ACCURATE, peoples reputations are at stake, this is a very dishonest world we live in and building a credible reputation on a forum is not easy especially if people just say what they want without investigating and being thorough....

This forum is a great venue for trading cues and buying cues and I have seen many a people jump the gun in accusing people of dishonesty on the public forum, this should not be happening unless you are directly involved OR have the facts straight and can PROVE your accusations.....many of you make a honest extra income on these threads and MORE people should TAKE a STAND against unresearched, false accusations, even if you KNOW something to be true you should be able to prove it somehow if you are going to accuse someone....

Honest mistakes happen to the best of the best....So please think about what you say before you put it in writing about someone on a forum...........

There seems to be a misunderstanding about my cue for the record THE CUE IS NOT DAMAGED NOR WAS IT EVER DAMAGED.. 1 OF the 2 shafts has slight nick on the joint collar.....

Best I know cues don't have magic healing powers. So you wanna explain this one?

Hello double Dave I guess I will explain again and again, it would really help if people would read the post accurately, I have already EXPLAINED what the accident was, it was a nick on the joint collar of the cue, if you need to you can read my previous posts and see where I explain the shaft is nicked on the joint collar.....that should be sufficient enough, no trickyness going on here.......Since I am fairly new to this forum I may have used a word that rings to harsh in the ears of those who read it, DAMAGED was not the best term to use, but it was in reference to 1 shaft and not the entire cue.....So with that said I think this issue has been explained enough....Thanks Steve

Hmmm, I believe you.
I do think screaming from the top of your lungs the cue isn't damaged wasn't the best thing to do.
Maybe if you change the text a little you'll make it more clear for people what happened.

There are many rip-offs on this forum, and when a cue suddenly changes condition all kinds of red flags go up.
It should be crystal clear what is going on and don't expect people to dig through your other 17 threads to
find out what happened.

Make one thread with all pertinent info and don't bump it more than 3-4 times unless you're dropping the price.

gr. Dave
