Hierovision, Eric., mia, and runscott,
The more you post, the more you prove my point.
Dude, at this point, the more
YOU post, the more foolish
you sound. Honestly, I'm still sitting here scratching my head and asking myself "Is this guy serious?? Can he really not see how foolish he sounds????"
You've all publicly stated you have no intent to buy, yet you continue with mean-spirited posts in an effort to make sure no one else gives them any business either.
I made the statement that I have no intentions of buying based on the idea that I didn't know what I was getting into. Seriously. The whole 'masked magician' routine is silly. If you're selling something based on its performance and the pedigree of its maker, one needs to know who that maker is so they can GAUGE the performance. Get it????
Now that I know who the masked magicians are, I feel better having saved my money. But remember... this thread asked for opinions. So I gave mine. If you don't like my opinions or any opinion that differs from yours, I suggest steering clear of threads with the little 'poll' icon next to them. There was nothing here that I said that was 'mean spirited'. I don't know the alleged cuemakers on a personal level at all. I just know the cues as made by 1 of them. And they're not for me. Thats not an insult to him in ANY way. Tons of people love his cues. Hit is a very subjective thing. What works for you may not for me. Take pool out of the picture for a second because that's just a fact of life, buddy. For all I know the cuemakers are saints! Maybe they had the best of intentions. Who knows. I just know how it seems to me and a LOT of other people here. Still, I haven't said a bad thing about them. And I have NEVER tried to steer people away from them. If they want Unity Cues... more power to 'em! Go nuts! I'll play with something else. That's ok, right?
There is no Discussion here. Just the same four posters trying to make RUMORS read as real, and OPINIONS read as facts.
Once again, I didn't start this thread. I didn't out anybody. I didn't mention a single name. Do I know who the cuemakers are? Yep. Did I say at any point "Its this guy and this guy". No. I'm not trying to make ANYTHING read as fact except for my opinion on whether the identities should be kept secret or not which (might I remind you) is what the point of this thread was.
We all know that if you did this in the For Sale forum you'd get banned, that's why you're knocking them here in the Main Forum..
Mr. Wilson is a mod here as well as in the Wanted/For Sale section. I don't see why he would grant a little more latitude in one section over another. My guess is that Dave and Mike haven't banned anyone because... no one did anything worthy of a ban. Or even a warning. Jeff Duke asked for opinions (within the rules) and opinions are what he got (within the rules). I never said a bad thing about the alleged cuemakers. I commented solely on the business practice and marketing technique.
It must be a slow news day at your other hangout.
Wow. This was a
LOOOONG way to go just to mount some kind of half-a$$ed offensive against people who post on another site. Kinda lame dude. Really.
