Problems With Fellow Members

seems to me another example of someone saying idiodic things then getting upset when they are called on it.

its ok to stir the pot, but then getting your feelings hurt and crying foul is a non sequitor.

vivi, you hit a girl with a skateboard when she splashed water on you?

you should be in jail, you moron! in ca we call that assault with a weapon likely to cause great bodily injury.
 
and i dont think anyone criticized noss for his destruction of his knives, or few did.

he was criticized for his lame posts and crybaby behavior.

oh, and his continuous accusations, paranoia, and overall juvenile attitude.
 
Vivi;

This is from me, a Moderator here; perhaps it is time that you found a new internet forum to post at, as you have pretty much worn out your welcome here.

Go back over all of your previous posts since you registered to find out why.

As stated, admitting that you smoke pot, hit women with skateboards,(Both illegal) and destroy knives received as a gift would pretty well sum it up.

Bye bye.

Push "The Button." :D
 
To me, it wasn't that you hit a girl with a skateboard, Vivi. It was that you repeatedly stated (though even once was enough) that you did so to take away a sense of safety you seem to still feel she didn't deserve. Hopefully, your use of recreational drugs is for either enjoyment or to relieve anxiety. I'd hate to think you're hitting the bong to take away its false sense of security.

Daayumm... sure did get quiet in here.

Unfortunately, Vivi is still posting. Minding his manners for the last few posts though.

VIVI, WE'RE WATCHING YOU!!!!!
 
I have my finger on 'The Button'.

I haven't been able to use it lately as others have about worn it out. ;)

However, the finger is getting itchy on this one, so stay tuned. :thumbup:

You need to nix "The Button" and upgrade to a device that can withstand heavy use. :D Such as. . . .

It's mil-spec, critical application certified, and there is documentation indicating years of use without failure. :D

I have several on hand and will only take minutes to install. :D

I used to have a couple of those; I had them mounted in my old truck with one labled LAZER, and the other labled NUKES.

They actually controlled my driving lights.

Great conversation starter, though. :D
 
Vivi's knifebreaking is just a pathetic cry for attention.


And we will see more of this behavior on bf.
Backyard destructive knife science is on the rise.
And I, for one, don't see it doing bf much good.
Looking back at all of the previous knifebreakers (not makers) and the threads they've spawned...
Nothing positive has come from them.
Dividing the forum. Pitting the fan boys against each other and endless mud slinging.

Of course I could just ignore it, as I've done with all of Vivi's threads since the Opinel thread, but what about the newbies and the nonknife people that see this nonsense?
And see it as gospel?
 
Ebb, I think anyone taking it as gospel would be a little irresponsible

Exactly. And there are plenty of people out there willing to do exactly that. You included as proved by your next sentence.
t's not scientific and to me it only concludes a few general things that may or may not hold true over a bigger sample.

So, according to you, it's not science and what you find out may or may not be true. You are finding out general things...such as debunking one myth with another, since what you do isn't science.
might even give us some ideas on how we can provide better testing.

When you say "us" do you mean you and the rest of the BYKBs or the knife industry in general?
I think the knife industry in general has a handle on what works and doesn't.

It's interesting to me though how many forumites will claim destructive testing has no real world value when a member here does it, but when a company does it they're only respected more.

I haven't claimed that destructive testing has no value.
I have claimed that backyard knife testing, with no controls, countless variables and in samples of one, have no value.

A company like Spyderco (no I don't own one) has the means to do controlled testing in large samples.
An ABS smith has control of the variables and the means to keep track of them.

There is a huge difference between you chopping on a branch still connected to the tree and Spyderco's test equipment.

Oh and one more thing.
It is one matter to go and break production pieces. They are mass produced and there is always the question that it was a bad apple in the barrel. Big Al at grinder three could've had a bad night. Vinnie in heat treat could've left a blade out...A production company can absorb the negative impact and the cost of replacing the blade.
It is a whole 'nother matter when one starts this nonsense with a custom maker.
Quality aside, you are dealing with a single man's reputation, work and livelyhood.
Consider putting you're own career on the line against some internet 'expert'.
An expert who deals in theory, not science and who deals in concepts that may or may not hold true over a bigger sample.
If he makes a crappy knife the community will know.
The community doesn't need BYKS.
 
OK howz this.
There is testing.
And there is grandstanding.
(Grandstanding is a pathetic cry for attention.)

The word testing is the most overmisused word on the forums.
