When you are playing with a professional and the whole internet thing it's nice to keep things real. I can't seem to get that through your head. I've asked you politely to stop all the negative stuff....once in a while is OK even on the internet but just not ALL THE TIME........ask yourself? when is the last time I actually said something positive to levi?
Can't remember right. I tried to give you a great compliment about the pictures you took of the 14.1 tournament to try and give you a good feeling. Oh we'll I guess it didn't work?
Levi.
I still don't know what was so negative. I asked a question, in fun, and it was answered by Steve. End of issue. It accomplished my mission of bumping up your thread and bringing attention to your stream. What was so negative? You are the one who turned it negative with your post. You are taking internet forums way too seriously and not seeing the humor in it.
I say a lot of positive things to you , in person, Rick. I guess that doesn't count. I guess it is different when you call me "Loser", after losing a match, and I take it as a joke. After all, I have never claimed to be a good player and I play in the league to help promote straight pool. Maybe I should take your comments more seriously.
Maybe I haven't said something positive specifically to your Levi screen name, but that is just internet garbage and I think personal actions speak louder than words.
I posted 20 photos of the Md. State 14.1 tournament, held in your room, on this forum, without being asked.
I provided you with a disk full of pictures from that tournament, again, without being asked.
I gave the TD permission to use one of those pictures in any magazine articles about the tournament.
I gave you permission to use more of my photos in a magazine article.
I think all of this promoted you and your room and I think it was all pretty positive, but I guess I'm wrong, by your standards. I'll be sure it never happens again.
Oh, and on the issue of you trying to give me a good feeling with compliments on my pictures. It really isn't necessary. If they please me, that is all that counts to me. I really don't care if anyone else likes them. I sometimes put pictures on the internet purely for the enjoyment of others. Some people like them and some don't. I can live with that. It also doesn't matter to me if they ever appear in any publications, especially without payment. I'm never going to get rich from photography. Most of the time, I allow the use of my pictures as a favor to someone and don't get anything in return. Oh wait, that was the case with you. I guess that was negative too.
BTW, in your last post, you said you would play me 100 to 50. Since you would probably beat me 100 to 25, that is not a great offer. However, I would be happy to play you anytime with any game. I'd even play even. You see, I play for the enjoyment of playing and I'm not trying to measure anything. It doesn't matter to me if I win or lose. All I usually ask for is a fair game.
