Oof, I think I need to work on my delivery.

I definitely got that your poll was a joke, but it looks like my return joke completely bombed.

What I intended to say was that people should feel free to say whatever they want here.  It's a lot easier to find out the truth behind what's really going on away from that other site.

OEM/component pissing matches are absurd and deserve to be parodied.

puttnfool seems to invite and enjoy the ridicule with some of his posts, have at it.  Although I think he's way overboard in the way that he poaches "WTB SMT" buyers via email in the swapshop with his distributor pricing.  It isn't really fair to the sponsors.

And I was also kidding about SMT.  Bring him up if you'd like, I really didn't intend it that way.  Anyone who sends out "free gifts" to charity events that are actually coupons for free gloves with a $15 handling fee deserves to be mocked.  And since you can't question him elsewhere, why not here?

I'll take down the referee pic, it was meant to be a post making fun of the kind of actions and restrictions that aren't supposed to happen here, but it came out the exact opposite.

This is "drama?" Damn, I guess I need to work on my delivery.

Oops, my mistake.  I could have sworn that the original poll had invoked the name of another person, whose very mention often leads to 10 pages of unnecessary drama.  Sorry.

Just kidding!  Upon further review, there was no infraction. [picks up flag]

At this point, there aren't a lot of rules here, we'll have to make them up as we go along, and see what kind of site everyone wants.

I realize that some people might have already moved on and don't want to see drama like this dredged up, but others might have some pent-up rants they want to get off their chests, so go ahead and say whatever you want.  It might also be a good way to identify issues that we don't want to see repeated here.
