    I realize I worded that poorly, and saw that's largely what my post conveyed. That's not what I meant. And I hope you can gather what I DID mean from my other posts. But I'm sure y'all can't.

    I actually have work to do now, so I'm not wasting anymore time on this.

    I wasn't trying to slam Grimster, I was trying to keep him from getting pounded by alot of members for putting out what seemed to be an "interest check" post.

    Others have done this in the past and have gotten destroyed for it. Really, it's a no-no for the FS Forum.

    I know Grimster is a standup guy and has been around here for a while.

    If I ever did an interest check posting, I would expect no less than a major **** pounding from all members of the forum, with Brett leading the pack! ;) Who luvs ya baby!

    Argh. But this ISN'T an interest check! That's what y'all can't seem to figure out! How in the name of kush can you have an interest check if you don't even name the item? You can't!! So it isn't an interest check!

    It's just another random, pointless, entertaining thread.

    It sure was funny. I know you wouldn't be offended since you wrote the joke itself and I was just acknowledging it, but I could see someone else coming down on me for it.

    damn people... three pages of this still going on?

    I have no problem with Grimster at all.

    I have no problem with him placing this thread in the FS section.

    I only have a problem as my earlier post stated in the whole.. "I have something you all will want" FS. But i'm not going to tell you what it is.. so beg me to revel it.. and I will at a later date thread.

    HOnestly no harm was done. Grimster said he would sell it... if I don't have any interest in the item I can just shut the f*ck up and move on to better threads. Certainly more interesting ones.

    As someone pointed out earlier though.. rules are rules.. if you break them.. If I break them.. i expect to be held accountable for it.

    *did Trey (sid) ever revel what his karma was/is?

    On a serious note. Third only to politics and cables...Flea Market fights have been some of the most contentious and "hall of shame" quality threads in the history of this fourm. IT is the reason that strict rules were set up. Since the inception of the rules by justin - the web dictator - problems and fights in the FM have been virtually nonexistant. While no intent to do anything but have a little fun was Grimster 's motive, you can see how even that has gotten out of hand. (yes I posted so I am part of the problem). This posted in the clubhouse would have been just fine. If we want the flea market to remain and work the way it was intended (free and open) I guess it is necessary for it to be orderly and boring. Just the nature of the beast I guess.

    Give it to Grimster.. he sure does know how to build up an audience.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    What the heck is wrong with you people? :p

    Viva la thread!

    EXACTLY..........why is it in the FM if nothing is being sold??:confused: Nothing wrong with us, what's wrong with you ;)
    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment.

    Grim, just looked at your theater. Looks fantastic. I have the exact same speaker set up, but mine don't sound as good as yours! I don't have the separates running them. How do they sound?
