Okay, not really... Basically I got a random email that got me to thinking about how I project myself around here. It's not like I want to re-engineer my entire life, but perhaps I should change my approach to folks on the forum.

The email, was about the shoptalk section in particular, so that's where I posted the poll.... but I frequent this forum a lot, so please feel free to take the poll if you like. :)

And no, I'm not so pretentious as to think most of you care all that much ;)

The little picture of you shows that at least option#1 is
somewhat irrelevant.

Or did you hire a model to pose for the picture??

All the best,
David Darom (ddd)
 
Took the poll, gosh, are you getting paranoid or what? All over some mindless child writing junk?:D
Go swing a big hammer and let the frustrations go away.

Nick,
I have never met you, but my impression formed from posts on here is that you are a welcome addition and asset to the forum. That email you posted is obviously from someone a sandwich short of a picnic:D to say the least.

Stop worrying and make more knives to post!

Nick,

LOL! This is exactly what I was thinking! Nick, you're an asset to the forum. You'll never make everyone happy so don't sweat it. My answer was #4 on the poll:). :D
 
I would'nt worry about it too much Nick, but I took the poll just for the heck of it. I once had a troll on another forum pull up 9 or 10 old threads of work I had posted and just trashed me and my work. Come to find out it was a couple of idiots I work with who thought it would be funny.:(Some people just want to stir the pot, which is probably the case here.
 
I phoned in 7 No's and 2 Yes's :D

Nick, there's always going to be people who want to bring you down. Ignore them. If this goofball didn't even have the half a gonad required to sign his name, he / she / it doesn't merit the time I've taken to type this response, much less the time you've taken to run that poll.

Nick,

I have never met you, but I enjoy your posts on this forum.

You are obviously well liked, what else would explain all of the posts kidding you about your production. They are all done in a friendly manner.

I took the poll too. I have never met you, but DO enjoy your posts. I feel that you are a nice guy. I happen to agree 100% with Roger!!
 
Thanks guys, and Lady :)

I feel sort of stupid now, because it turned into a mess that reaks of the T-shirt "LOOK at ME, I'm an attention whore"

Which I probably should have seen coming... but it was purely started because I figured if I was projecting myself in a negative way... I either needed to change or leave. Pretty simple.

Gig and Nordic... those were both hilarious, THANKS :D
 
I've never met you either Nick but I frequent these forums and see the following you have, as a maker and a decent guy. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Happy new year to you and yours!
 
Edited-
It's a testament to the fact that you are NOT a jerk ass, that you even care what this anonymous email to you has to say.

Where was this option in your poll. I didn't see it or I would have voted.:p
 
I have always enjoyed your participation here, love your knives and feel you are always respectful to others.

I'm actually quite surprised by all this as I feel you have a HUGE following of fans and MUCH support here, even to the point of being a little annoying at times. :p ;) :)

Don't let an anonymous e-mail get to you. You have friends here and your contribution is valued.
