    I don't mind being called out. Frankly, I just didn't think. It's not like I woke up this morning and said to myself, "I'd like to be beaten down by 15 CP members." I did however wake up thinking I needed to make a quick buck. Clearly, from a legal sense I did nothing wrong; however, a higher standard of morals often governs industries, groups, friends, etc. I disregarded those morals and then fell back into line after the friendly kind of nudge my friends in a football huddle would have give me if I missed practice. There's no hard feelings here.

    But, let's just put it on the table. Many of you have said some harsh things despite my reputable past, even indicating I have no honor. Most of you don't know a single thing about me. Other comments suggest there's no way of coming back from what I've done. If that's the case and I am done here, then let me know and I'll cancel my membership here because I'd rather not be a part of a place claiming family values while at the same time utterly unforgiving.

    Night, let me know what you want me to do in the morning.

    Mike, if it means anything to you. We're good. This is exactly how these threads go unfortunately. This will blow over just like any other time. If you f-up one time out of 100 I don't think anyone who remotely matters here is going to hold it against you.

    Don't leave................your transgression (despite the **** storm) isn't that great and you stood up and rectified the situation. Everyone is guilty of making a bad call now and then. It's how you handle it in the end that really matters.

    You have always been a ****.
    Please don't ever PM me again. Find someone else to do your crossovers. Maybe one of these other asshats that just don't get it can come over and you can have a little asshat/crossover rebuilding party.
    In case you haven't noticed the only people that like you here obviously don't spend to much time here. You show where your morals are at. I am very disappointed at who is on your friends list. It did not take long for me to drop you. I think you and No Tech Kid are a perfect match;)
    Um Bu-by.

    Sincerely
    Not your friend
    Ben

    You have no clue as to where my morals are, and I doubt seriously if you can read. I said nothing different really than you did...

    never called for backstabbing as you put it. I was only wanting to have an honest discussion about this and not knowing what the item was and who was involved prevents such a discussion. Solid is ok in my book and always has been, and knowing this upfront would have led to me making a different comment. I still think it is poor form, but his reputation and standing in this community afford him more than a benefit of the doubt here. I am willing to bet that most if not all would have had a different take on this if that information was known up front. Solid... I give you props for stepping up man. I hope that all is ok and looking up. Please accept my appologies for speaking without understanding the facts, and best of luck with the sale:)

    BTW.... Is there a CP discount?:p
    this last line was something called a joke.



    Now for morals... first, I define friendship as something I give to trustworthy, honest and respectful individuals that have shown a desire to be friends. My expectations of a friendship are really no different than for any other relationship. Things like honor, commitment, sincerity, integrity, forgiveness, and loyalty all come into play. To me a friend is the person you can call on at two o'clock in the morning in an emergency, or the guy that will help you bring that refrigerator up three flights of stairs. They are there when you need them. They are also someone that will be there through thick and thin, and willing to offer encouragement, and support when things are their worst. They are someone that values the individial for who they are and sees the best of that person even when they may be at their worst. And lastly, rather that shove them under the bus, they pull them back from it.

    I would not have listed an item purchased from a fellow member, especially for profit, without first consulting with the seller. To me this is common courtesy. I also would not list an item here solely for the intent of profits, hense the reason I chose to sell my Sansui gear on another venue. Those that have dealt with me or met me on this forum all say that I am honest, forthright and candid in my dealings, and I am proud of that reputation.

    For my friends, I will do all I can to help and support them, and I know they will do the same. In this instance and knowing what I know about it, I chose to respect Solid and his more than honorable reputation as I have seen it demonstrated here on this forum. You and I both agree on this and yet I am the asshat and a ****?

    I think it best you learn how to read there F-tard and as far as friendship goes... whatever dude. I am more that able to handle the crossovers on my own, but felt you could use the business. Once again, this thread did not resort to personal attacks and the rest of this BS until you and Ricardo took it in that direction.

    I do not care if you or Ricardo like me, as in any family this big, there are bound to be those that just cannot see eye to eye on anything. Unlike you and Ricardo, if I do not agree with you, I do not resort to calling others names. Grow up Ben. And don't bother responding as you are ingnored.

    LOL!!!!

    Man -- a long time ago - there was a pic with that guy being run down by a car..

    And I photoshopped it to where a bunch of CP members were driving the car and like Russman was the kid running...

    I cant find it anymore -- I bet someone here has it on their HD...

    anyone?
