Catastrophe and his Stand Over Tactics

[Bobcat]

In an alternate universe, people on a sociopath forum are talking about offshore boats. And of course, philanthropy.

Now that is funny right there!

Ned, your first thread on here is complaining about someone else threatening you and your new business venture. The thread promptly turns into mudlsinging.

31 minutes later you post a thread announcing your new business venture to the offshore world. None of this paints a very good image of your new magazine to the casuall forum reader. just sayin...

[BUIZILLA]

Hi Ned.... are you saying that if Jay had submitted everything you ASKED of him, and it was published, he would have been paid in full?

also, what was he ASKED to do, that couldn't be published because of the partnership issue?

keyword here is ASKED

if you ASK him to do something, and it's not published due to partnership issues, is that his fault?

I don't know your industry...

And the downward spiral of Offshore Performance boating continues........

Whatever happened to the good old days when private issues stayed PRIVATE? If I had a nickle for every time I've been stiffed in some manner during a TV shoot or boat deal, I'd be rich........ Get over it....or at least have the class to keep it to yourselves.

We now return to our regularly scheduled soap opera, "All my Turbines", wherein an underfunded, over-zealous boat owner whines inccessantly about an egotistical, over-rated engine builder.

I'll keep out of this one

Please take this OFF the dock....

Done.

Sucks to be called out because you tried to help a friend and have to defend yourself on a website that you vowed to destroy and then have to hang out there waiting for somebody to say something. For you see, you and I are just the same.

[fund razor]

Except different.

This is getting interesting

So if my Mechanic fixes my truck and I have no work for it and don't use the truck I don't have to pay him ? HMMMM ?

I liked the magazine. Too bad you children couldn't play nice. If you were my kids you would have been whooped and then duct taped together in an embrace.

Frankie is from Tennessee, the rest of us... are normal and do not embrace relatives, duct tape or not...

Look at it this way. At the moment this thread has had 1320 views. Imagine if one third of those viewers choose not to buy a $20 magazine subscription becase this thread left a sour taste in their mouth. Do the math. That number is only going to grow with time.

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Sorry Tony, I didn't edit your post I was going to quote the first line.

Look at it this way. At the moment this thread has had 1320 views.

I wonder how many of those 1320 views were of members that have been contacted and/or harassed by Catastrophe.

[fund razor]

Welcome returning members.

[Bobcat]

Must have been deleted over on "TOOL TIME"

Bad business is good business.

[Ned@TheEDGE]

Tony - If people decide not to subscribe to the magazine because of this thread then so be it, that's their choice in a free society. If people don't want to enjoy the content of a magazine based on a forum thread then that's just something we have to live with.

I have made my posts and Cloke has made his, and I for one have nothing more to say on it. It is what it is.

Ned.
