Zoa This is specifically why I have mentioned no specifics. Consider that.

I easily could say SO and SO is this and that..... but why.

A healthy conversation can be had without dragging his name into it.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Haha I disagree, people are curious its how it works. Letting go one specific piece of info is like opening Pandora's box, after that point everyone needs to be on the in.

Agreed with what zoa said for the idea that i can't see your questions and the first reply seemed reasonable explanation enough for me anyway.
Not saying you were wrong it's just too murky when all i read the thread and see all your post not there except for the rant and his answers.

Ok so I now have the back story and I can see it from both sides but really and honestly it could have been handled better, IMO. I do agree with Levi that without our vendors CanReef would not exist but I also can see the other side of it as well. Some times there is posts that are alittle confusing and just dont read right in my mind.

I do think some times when we vent here it does tends to read differently to all of us. I know if I was to vent about some of the things that **** me off about certain things I would have a little title under my user name saying something like ' Jerk Of The Decade'

My two cents:

Why are we even allowed to remove the contents of our posts like this? I get so frustrated when I'm reading through threads and someone who has decided to change his/her option, or decides to leave Canreef, has gone through all 400+ posts he/she has ever made and put *removed*.

Also, the second someone has an issue with a Sponsor on Canreef but "doesn't want to name names", well anyone with half a mind can figure it out in 10 seconds by searching your post history...

I think from standing outside of the box here, this thread is unfair since the first initial thread has been tainted by editing out the one side of the story...

Good points and I agree it is better to have all side of the story.

Hey, if all the vendors leave, I will host canreef for FREE... So that argument has flown out the window. HEHE, just wanted to stir the pot a bit.

I like you GRIZZ make sure my customers are happy. Taking the time to talk with the customer afterwards really makes a difference.
