Okay all, I'll keep this as short as possible
Firstly, i think my argument was made firmly enough in the thread devised about me or made towards me by morgeoffei ( I keep forgetting the spelling). Evidenced also by the amount of replies in my favor. However there are two individuals that got my goat a bit. The first is narruc, narruc you seem not to understand human nature much. The fact is that we are a part of the animal kingdom. I was a bit crude, but that was warranted (Ifeel) by the fact that the person who started the thread on me did'nt act like a man in the first place nor was he civilized or professional. How was'nt he any of these things ?, let's see. He attempted to out me on the for sale/trade forum instead of coming to me directly or going to the good bad and ugly forum where this type of thing belongs. Instead of being civilized he titles his thread RDT give it a rest. Now sir neither you or he know my situation or why I post so often and until the moderators put restrictions on how many bttt we can do. I am allowed to do as many as I see fit until my knives are sold. Had you (narruc) read my replies thoroughly, you might have seen the humor in them.Why did'nt you see the humor...I don't know but other forumites certainly did. On the real side of things you must remember that when an animal is trapped r feels unecessarily confronted it will bite. My bad language is certainly not a bite but it did bother some of you. I don't care that much except that you now feel it necessary to add insults to a dispute that you have very little part in in the first place. So I could easily do the same back to you. Instead seeing as you are such a civilized person or enlightened rather and that you are nolonger intouch with you animal side I wil address you the way I should have been addressed in the first place. In the appropriate forum and with out the bad language. I am crude when improperay addressed, you also must not know much about people outside your place of inhabitance or tax bracket as that type of language is the same to sme as the type you used to decribe my. The words are different but the intention is the same. Now were you implying that I am a lesser educated or lower class person. Maybe you are right and maybe you are wrong. The fact is that it was'nt your place to attack when you were'nt being attacked to start. I may have shown all of you a side you had no desire to see but I had no desire to be accused in the wrong forum of being inconsiderate when all I did was repost once a day like everyone else does. I may have reposted for a long time but as I said in the reply I left that my compute fride so I nolonger have one and I rely on friends to hook me up when they can. So instead of being a nuisance to them I just repost until until the knives are sold. Why is this bad ???? How is this inconsiderate ? Am I crude to have fely wrongly attacked ? If I am wrong...that's fine I am not afraid of being wrong. That's okay by me, it would'nt be the first time. It probably would'nt be the first time for you either. Chefget is the other forumite that chimed in to say that I am rude and crude but not in those exact words. In other words though. The same goes fr you sir. Has this been civilized enough ? Does this satisfy you ? or does that fact that I still don't agree with you make you feel uneasy and make you feel as though I am still wrong. Don't missunderstand, I would'nt mind using the same language i used before but don't forget that its the same language only the words are different and maybe the emphasis is a bit different. Do we grasp this ? yes , no ?! whatever. Like I said...go find something better to do. There's no need for your lame drama here. Good night.....RDT

Your a funny guy RDT! First of all, I really don't care what your situation is, or why you post so many times. I think I do understand human nature, and understanding that we are part of the animal world, I see you as a predator. A person that cares only about himself! Like the streets in Brooklyn... One way, and Dead end. I also come from NY, but in a place where we think, and care about what's fair. Maybe thats an out dated way of thinking in this day, and age, but I'm glad to see that there are a few of us still around.

You are right RDT... You have the right to post, and BTTT as many times as you want, but let me ask you a question. How many more knives have you sold past six BTTT's? How many more after twenty two BTTT's? Get the picture?

Apparently you lied about mgeoffriau trying to do it the "civilized or professional" way. You just didn't have the courtesy to reply to him!

As far as Chefget is concerned... He is one of the finest people on this site.

I have said all I want to on this subject. I'm sure RDT that you will keep doing what you want, without regard, or respect for anyone else.

See what guys like you do to a great place, because you can't take a little criticism, and do whats right.

Bottom line, guys, is there are no limits on BTTT'ing, and there are no official moderators(but a lot of self appointed ones) so drop it already. This kind of bitching is why Spark wants to close the FS forums.
I admit that all of RDT's BTTT'ing drives me nuts, but I'm in charge of jack **** here, so I mind my own business, and remain joyous in the fact that we have a place to buy and sell knives, but since the can is open....
To the guy that started this whole thing, get a grip already, and stop whining like a schoolgirl

Way to go, RDT.

You're gonna get the Individual For Sale section canned for us.

Thanks a bunch!

I'm not taking sides on the "bttt" issue, but I don't think we can blame RDT for the current situation regarding the "for sale" forum. Personally, I think we are going to have to pay for these forums and the "bttt" issue did not cause that. Free rides on the net are slim and none and slim left town 3 weeks ago. In fact, I think he took one of my knives.

I'm sorry fellas, I just don't get it. How have I disrespected anyone by reposting ?...how ? Whether it was 4 posts or 40 posts, the fact remains I am attempting to unload some knives and that is the service that this site provides us, so where is the disregard for anyone ? Narruc you mention Brooklyn as though it was entirely bad and that to act a certain way is indicative of someone from there....why ? Do you have a distaste for Brooklynites ? what for are we lower class ? That's the sort of tone you are using anyway. Maybe I am reading too much into this. I don't think I am the one who will close the for sale forums down either. There are just as many forumites who backed my right to repost up as there are objectors, so I think it's not gone very far and nothing's solved much. If Spark contacted me and said "listen I know you need to sell some stuff but take it easy, repost a few times but not so often" then I would immediately abide by that. Seeing as how that has'nt happened then I am just going to continue my routine. I LOVE BF and have been very repectful to all I have come into contact with. With all the dealings I have had in the last couple years here, I have had only one that went awry. Not too bad considering how many knives I have traded and sold here. My point has still not been challenged that the original post should have been in this forum and not the other. That's that, by this action a reply is warranted, how nasty or nice the reply is is left up to my discretion as I am the outed party. I have done no wrong, it's that simple. If I am a predator how come I have'nt taken advantage of anyone here ? How have I made any forumite prey ? Where are the wounds from my predatory existence ya know..being from Brooklyn and all.
Am I just supposed to cow tow to anyone who tells me to do what they want ? Those in authority that make the desicions are those who's requests I abide by. Pure and simple, I bother and hurt noone so when I feel as though I am unecessarily attacked by a few the I retaliate. This is an expected response. Cause and effect I don't know how many times that universal truth has to be repeated. I warmly invite the moderators to contact me and let me know what I should do. They will absolutely find me flexible. BTW another eason I have'nt unloaded much and had to repost was because of the Blade show and understandably the fellows from the forums were saving their pennies. Now that it has passed I have already unloaded three of my knives and posibly two more to come. You'll notice that I don't have as many posts now only becase of the sales or trades that just took place. Thanks.....RDT

Might I humbly suggest that y'all take this to Whine and Cheese? I think RDT is screwing up a really good thing here. It isn't about rights. Nobody has rights here, this is a privately owned forum, not the US government. It is about common curtesy. Using the BTTT too much is unfair to others because it scrolls them down off page one too fast. If where a post appears doesn't really matter, why does RDT do all the BTTT in the first place?

Hear. . .Hear. . .I agree with David !

If you don't want to give it a break there is plenty of "whine" to go with the ton of cheese that you're spreadin' in the Whine and Cheese Forum !

Wow, I just came across this just now. Nice to see that there's at least a few people who agree with me (at least regarding the bttt'ing and being civil).

Needless to say, this is all rather small fry in comparison to the current mess in the for sale forums.
