Cut-throat Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Hey Greg, no good deed goes unpunished, eh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackjohn Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Mr Beane, you know this on this forum because I informed you. Right? Funny thing is... in light of the new archaeological evidence, this shoe was in fact the property of a 9 year old boy. Fascinating. Mr BALLS always was curious as to the small size of the shoe. As for Greg aka GoF, he deserves nothing but PRAISE in this. He tried to do us all a service, we should all thank him for his efforts. Greg, I am very sorry it had to turn out this way. I appreciate all you have done to try to make this dream come true. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.

Capt.

Greg, I am very sorry it had to turn out this way. I appreciate all you have done to try to make this dream come true. Here! Here! You tried your best, unfortunately the dealer hasn't been honest with you and that is certainly NOT your fault. I agree with Blackjohn that we owe you thanks for trying so hard to make this all work...

Capt. Sawney Beane Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Sorry to piss everybody off... And I say that as a greeting, I understand the problems and work that goes on behind getting ANYONE to do what they promise, you have no idea what I do for a living, nor what I've done.... I was upset that I had to find out somewhere else, that I was not privy to, as I was as ready as everyone else to buy shoes... I stand by that. STILL. I DO NOT FIND FAULT WITH GREG, WHOM I'VE NEVER MET I was willing to blindly do business with whomever... That was my feeling, still is, get over it. I was pissed that I had to search for the answers to the questions I had asked. If I have to be the Asshole, so be it. I thought you people were Pirates. As an aside, Hey, Greg thanks for all yer work. I know it was a labor of love, it wasn't about you, yer site and work is what appealed to me. I was excited and willing to throw in. I was pissed about the COMMUNICATION from the others that have a relationship with you. Busted limbs suck and I hope yers heals straight. At least ye will know when it's gonna rain, that's the plus... I know. I've been busted up way worse and it sucks. Pirates should get over being so fragile. On this forum for one... I lost my 20 sided die... Still Beane, Somehow still the ass, and proud of it. Someone's got to be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL. You can always join my mail list, if you haven't already... And I seriously doubt anyone took any offence by anything you said. I've been here for awhile... this place is pretty darned stable as forums go. Rarely does anyone really get bent out of shape.
