Don't misunderstand folks...
As I said before I wasn't trying to hand out grief nor was I implying that answering questions is wrong. I just found it amusing that someone who posts probably more per day than anyone else on the board not to mention will throw up back to back posts within a minute or two of each other couldn't see the attention grabbing connection. I honestly don't mind the posts and wasn't trying to attack you two but was instead merely pointing out that at times it can get a tad obsessive. On the flip side of the coin yes it is refreshing to have someone willing to answer the ol my T is on it's back questions as it saves me having to. But at times it seems some folks live on the board and have nothing else to do is all. Once again pull em back outta your cracks boys and girls I am not ripping into anyone trust me if I were you would be fully aware of it.

you know, i have to agree here too. dave has put a lot of helpful information for me online.
i post a lot too for someone who's only been here a month. sometimes it's advice about the LITTLE i know about Ts, however, mostly it's questions. just because someone posts a lot doesn't mean it's all worthless.
in fact, i think a post about attention is a bit less helpful than 20 posts about a T molting.

ah, that's a good point phillip. yeah, i must admit it's pretty freaky when i and someone else both post at the same time. then again, considering the vast number of members on here, that really isn't that unlikely is it?
come on, admit it, you're just too busy with your business to post more.

Phillip,
Yah know.....I think it's that obsessiveness in us 'herp' and T keepers that keeps you all in business. So I wouldn't put us down too hard.

hey phillip,
don't worry, i know what you said and you know what i said -- im down with you.. hell, im giving you money for animals soon!
and guys, i don't think he's putting us down at all.... i think his post was misunderstood and possibly could have been written slightly differently -- SEE HOW EASY IT IS TO MISCOMMUNICATE with people? Man, i didnt think i'd be able to give some examples THIS quick!!! =D
and yes, part of why i don't mind answering the same old questions is so other people don't have to.. however... pretty soon....
and man, i def don't sit around all day on here...
rugby season..
hockey season..
graduate school and medical school...
being 23 years old ....
you find time to sit on here for 6 hours a day, buddy! ;P
like i told kelleygirl, usually i'll make it an hour or two at the end of the day to do answer T questions on this board and email...
but i'm on a real quick recoup from some mighty hardcore knee surgery.. i'm able to go out, but only for a couple of hours... so i've def. been spending TONS of time on this thing as of lately.. but 3 weeks my doctor says... and i'm done
and again, i don't mind answering the 't-on-the-back' questions, oh, 15 times a week...

oh wow dude, i'm sorry to hear about your surgery. :/ what happened? some unfortunate rugby accident? you know, i think rugby is one of the few 'true' sports left. (please, please no debate on this...)
i hate sports in general, alas. however, rugby is just lots of fun to watch. you gotta love men slamming into one another... waahahahahha.
ahem. sorry.

haha, I'll PM you and we'll chat! I love that you wrote "PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NO DEBATE ON THIS" --- you're getting used to this board..
it took me awhile before i realised people will jump on you like NOTHING and that you either have to word things very carefully or just not post at all.. There's only been one real vigilante on my butt and she knows who she is.. i think we both learned a lesson about that from MrInternet But i see it happen to so many other people...
It funny, because every time i meet arachnopets people in real life, there's always a solid 20minute bitching session... oooh man, cra-azy stuff
this board is great!!!!

no, we aren't related, but man, someone needs to put dave in a cast or something so i can catch up to his total. at this rate, i'll forever be a peon in his eyes...
(SOB!)
(SOB!)
well, the best resolution any of you can hope for....
yeah it turns out that this chick told me they were flame knees, but i called up and then she was all "oh by the way, the breeding mother turned out to be a G.spatulata (G.rosea)"... so i got taken for a ride... ergo, youse got taken for a ride
i was all stoked to bring you folks some mighty fine prices on some mighty fine Ts ..
How bout this:
for those of you still pissy, when mine can breed, i'll sell the slings off for $5 apiece...
seriously. i'm not even kidding.
hows that for some service?
just give me at least a year or so on that promise, i know it seems like a long time, but you can def. hold me to it, i promise!

The label clearly said "Chilean Flame". If not paying attention to explicit english constitutes being taken for a ride, then you definitely took a long trip.

3 million? a tad bit more, right?
and secondly, i think most of us have BEEN SOLD T's THAT ARE MISLABLED, right? i bet i could find about 20 posts in the past 2 months about that..
she said she heard it was a flame knee and thats what she told me. I was there for about 2hours yesterday trying to figure it out!!! She said she wasn't sure about anything, and thats what i passed on to this board.... I'm def. not know for making stuff up here, buddy.. You may not know that, but someone else has that area WELL COVERED
I'm not making jill out to be a bad guy at all! I never said that, all... you brought it up man! i'm saying is that she told me what it was, and then i said later on it looked lika G.sp,and then when 2 of us called her up, she confirmed that.. Keep in mind, she's still kind of new to T's and she said Flame Knee and my ears perked up -- she didn't have the mother or anything..
not everythings about whos the bad guy and whos the good guy. No-one pointed blame or said "THAT M-Fing B**CH"..
all i said is that she finally found the breeding mother which was a G.spatulata. And then i found out...
and thats what I said..
Jill's amazing, and, I don't expect you to know this, but I've got 2 people heading over to her direction in the next week or so for T's! I think they both could vouch for that too!!! (J???)
How bout this buddy, stop trying to make it a fault and blame issue!!! let's make no-one out to be at fault, since its not that kind of issue at ALL. Man, not everything is about blame and fault and who did what..... Its about simple misunderstandings in this situation.. everyone else pretty much seems to understand that and is giving a LARGE amount of WELL DESERVED lee way here. When i went in yesterday, it was a flame knee in a flame cage... You tell me youw wouldn't be confused too!
As i said, most of us, even the big dealers, have been sold mislabled T's!
so maybe chill out, quit talking about blame and fault, and realise this is an honest wrong deal..
I got taken for a ride, and i passed it on. No big deal. That's EXACTLY what happened! Jill didnt know, then she found out and then she told me... easy as CAKE and PIE and every other party-food
Get it?
sweet.
now, back to reality
and skadi, you'll be the first to get a REAL flame knee sling when its all bred and done!
by the way, since youre new here defour ,welcome to the boards. It's really an interesting place... also, should i take it that youre not going to be PMing me back? The best advice i can give you (it was given to me too) is to take a step down, and enjoy yourself...

Peace and Brachy grease, D-Man
