Why Did This Varney Thread Get Locked?????

Ok. There are SEVERAL people I would like to address with this post.

cincyman:

I really am sorry for what's happened to you. The funny thing is I've been on this forum for several years and have repeatedly pointed out the lack of professionalism that Kevin continues to display. And despite all of this, there are still some clueless idiots here who think he's a GOD amongst mere mortals. While it may seem hard to believe, he really is quite far from it. His cues are mediocre. His designs are lackluster. His customer service is laughable. And his arrogance is both shocking and pathetic at the same time.

Marcus:
You've been a memeber of this site long enough to know that when you post opinions that are negative, its met with bans, deleted/locked threads, and a slew of criticism. When someone like KV leaves himself open for criticism with his own unprofessional actions, it makes way for "unpopular, negative opinions". That's a no-no on this site!!!

Roadkill:
You make yourself look foolish by defending a man that repeatedly shoots himself in the foot by A) opening his mouth and saying stupid things; B) by making outlandish claims that have been proved false; C) by acting unprofessionally and displaying horrific business practices. But hey! To each his own. You want to stand up for a guy like that? That's cool.

Just one question... you wouldn't also happen to go by the names 'eric draven' or 'cajunbarboxplayer', would ya?

Barb:
Just thought you should know that even though that may be Marcus in your avatar, I taught him that! And believe me! When I do it, it NEVER stays in my shorts!!!

If the forum chips in enough to cover the cost of the cue, will you burn it and film it? Ill get it started with 20 via paypal.

Post the video on youtube with a little story about how it came to be.

You've got the "AVATAR OF THE WEEK!"

The only question I have is: Why would anyone claim to be the model for this when the guy clearly has 2 penises?

Maybe that's who invented the expression "F*** you and the horse you rode in on". He can do both at once!

Old joke:
Did you hear about the man with 5 penises?
His pants fit like a glove!

I'm here all week.
 
I Likes Me A Good Tribute.... imo

Are you trying to insinuate that there may never be a Varney tribute like THIS: http://youtube.com/watch?v=LO0dO6pcTAU

"Tell you what I'll do...I have a large group of my basic 4pt rosewood j/p's that are near complete.
They are all going to the same man in Japan. I get $375 for these as fast as I can make them.
Since you just bought a cue, I'll hook you up if you promise to:

1) Never repeat this price or deal
2) swear you waited near 6 months
3) give me some good press here at AZB

If you hit my Paypal again tonight, I can realocate one of those cues to you for $350 and I'll pay shipping.
Since you just bought one cue, that'll give you a slight price break plus you skip the wait. I'll have these
ready to ship within a couple weeks...they are ready to be cleared. If you want one then let me know what
weight you'd like & I'll hand pick you a nice one. All have the brown phen collars.

Thanks

Each time I read the above quote I'm dumbfounded. Roadkill, railfirst, LoGIC, and worriedbeef(voice of reason) in this thread you appear to be defending this type of activity. Therefore I feel it is appropriate that your names be included in the same post with the above quote.
 
i would like to clarify my position here, I am in no way a varney nut hugger, I also have never flamed him on here. I am just curious how he still has so much good rep with all his apparent transgressions. But thanks anyways for including me shankster.

Ben, if I misread your post, I apologize.
 
not a problem but would still like to know how varney still posts on here with all his little green boxes.

railfirst said:
if varneys so bad how come you guys haven't team up to get his rep in the red?


Ben


At one time he was boasting he was going to take the top spot and offering various incentives to anyone who gave him rep. That thread has long disappeared into the black hole created for him. He continues, inexplicably, to rise in reputation.

He exchanged work and cues for good rep. This is an absolute fact. At one time he said he would retip anyones cue who gave him rep. Like a moron, I did, but never took him up on the retip. My guess is that this how he got the majority of it.
 
so why isnt he good rep being shot down in light of everything that has been posted on here?

It is much easier to give it then have it taken away. When you red rep someone it doesn't take as much away as when someone else green reps him. The nuthuggers rep him as much as possible. Anybody who can read should know better than to do business with him no matter how many green squares he has or where he is on the rep list. If not then they deserve what they get.

Exactly what BVal said. I did red rep him during this fiasco but unless everyone does it, it won't change a thing.

BEIN A MEMBER SINCE 03, I FULLY UNDERSTAND, AND THE THREAD TOPIC FOR THIS THREAD WAS JUST SOMETHING I USED TO START ANOTHER VARNEY THREAD WITHOUT THE POST HEADING SAYING "KV IS A WASTE OF SPACE, AND NO ONE SHOULD EVER BUY HIS CUES" I FIGURED, BY ASKING WHY THE THREAD GOT LOCKED, I COULD BE A LITTLE MORE POLITICAL AND KEEP THE THREAD GOING LONGER.

Simple. Probably because, just as his negative threads are deleted - so are his negative rep points.
