Link

You two may no longer enter into dialogue. We are going to settle this like real men. You both must go fo a long walk and the first one to drop as a result of exhaustion wins. The other must keep going until he wins too.
 
What, are you both fourteen years old? Because you're both acting like it.

John, I recommend simply removing the link to Jack's site. It's a simple and reasonable request. I understand your initial reason for including that link amongst the others on that page on your site - and I also believe Jack is shooting himself in the foot by requesting its removal (it could well generate business for him) - but if he doesn't want a link to his site from yours, then I would remove it.

You both need a time-out from each other, methinks. Maybe later on when tempers have cooled, you two can amicably resolve your differences.
 
John,
I don't think either of you is an a-hole, but in this particular case I think it is looking more like you. Just remove the friggin' link, what's the big deal. I consider you rather idiosyncratic, but kind of like you anyway, maybe because of that fact. Don't we all have our foibles? On this issue though I think you're just being a stubborn jerk and making yourself look bad.
REMOVE THE G** D*** LINK!!!!!!!
If you want to keep arguing with Jack beyond that, have fun.
Steve.
 
IMO This post is just another one of the many posts I've seen as of late that accomplishes nothing other than trying to get others to take sides on an issue that only the 2 people involved REALLY know whats truly going on and it's something that should be dealt in private between the 2 parties and not in this public setting. :mad:

(Granted there are a few exceptions like the totally obvious scammers/thiefs that need to be outed.)

IMO this crap needs to stop. IMO It has no real value here on AZforums to anyone other than the 2 parties involved. IMO It's in poor taste and uncalled for.

Other posters reading this can tell me I'm nuts or flame me for giving my honest opinion, or they can agree with me wholeheartedly, it doesn't matter either way but what I just said needed to be said as far as I'm concerned.

I hope the 2 parties involved here can come to a peaceful resolution with a happy ending for both.

Ok, I'm done with my whining now. ;)

Peace out billiards bros. :)

For what it is worth, at no time have I ever been the one to start a thread complaining about Jack Justis in any manner whatsoever. I have no intention of bringing these issues to the board's attention. But I will not sit idly by while this man maligns me unfairly.

That's completely understandable under the circumstances.

I think the best solution is to have the mods get rid of this post ASAP for everyone's benefit.

I think an online PPV challenge match of JJ vs. JB would make the most money... They could play chess for all I care, as long as they argue back and forth like this... "John, I do believe your white knight is identical to my black knight in all manners except color. For that, I'll ruthlessly put you in check, mate, and let everyone on the internet see what kind of thief you are. Smithers, release the hounds!" I apologize for my mr. burns tone... I've watched too much Simpsons in my lifetime.

FWIW, I think the whole design thief argument is weak. Its as if to say Skip James stole 12 bar blues from Robert Johnson, and then Charlie Patton chimes in to say Johnson stole the blues from him, then Son House chirps in to say, hey what about me, etc... In addition, I like JB's cases but they aren't really for me... so I've found the links on his site very helpful in terms of referring me to other sites of casemakers that I may like more. This is not criticizing JB's cases... They are wonderful cases, but just too extravagant for my taste.

Steve this is a matter of principle....

Whatever John, I'm certainly not going to worry about it. You won't be getting an apology from Jack and evidently you won't be removing the link. Unfortunate that is the way things are, but life goes on. See you both at VF, but not in the same place I presume.
 
I have no stake either way, and I don't know either of you, but I think you both should build your best, most protective, and lightest 2 x 4 case each of you has ever built, then send them to me for a fair and impartial evalutation! :D I'll keep the one I like the best, and donate the other to charity! :D ;) You guys can PM me for my address when they are done! :D

Honestly though, I'm under the assumption the link is being left purely out of spite. The honorable business thing to do would be remove the link and move on. If one person does not wish to be on another's list of alternative products, then that is a simple gesture to remove it.

John, you really should ask yourself this question. If you and Jack don't like each other as much as these threads dictate, why would you want to link to Jack's site, potentially increasing his business and income?

I like this 'walk' idea, but I'd like to shorten it from a looooooooong walk, to a walk of ten paces (carrying pistols). Anyone want to second ?

If they are only paintball pistols, I'll second. ;)
