Being right one thing but being a jerk about it is a whole other situation. I've read many of your posts and have to say, right or wrong, I'd be afraid to take your advice simply because you come across like a 'know it all'...in my neck of the woods, we ignore people like that.

Try starting your posts by being nicer. I mean, come on...your first post was a jab at someone. Just nicely tell someone they're not right and explain why...a little less mean. Not everyone cares how long you've done something....It's all about presence dude.

Does anyone have a fucking backbone anymore??? In the thread where I corrected someones wrong info a person actually used their first post to tell me I am a jerk... :main_laugh::main_laugh::main_laugh:

Well Gregg, you can come across as a total jerk. What you tell him is "Hey, I am a dick.. I fuck pussies and assholes, deal with it" :main_laugh:

Here's a thought, Gregg. If you really were a dick, why the hell would you give a shit and start another thread about this shmuck gettin' all bent outta shape?

Give the rookie some time, and he'll understand that you're not really bustin' his chops. Very few people can appreciate an honest opinion anymore. It's like you gotta walk on eggshells and pussyfoot around. Hand him a tissue and let's all move on! :main_laugh:

And actually Maurice, I know there was a time when we had a little misunderstanding as well, I had totally misinterpreted what you said.. so sorry for that, I've learned my lesson of not taking things so seriously or personally (from Gregg ;)) lol

I wanted to just post in the original thread but I know it would blow up so after two people took some shots at my character I suggested we go to the fight club with it instead of wasting space on the main board and taking it to a point where my info gets lost in a bunch of "Gregg is a jerk" posts... LOL

Shit happens! I know I can come accross a little abrasive too. Not taking things too personal is key. If the statement comes at you in just the right way, during just the right day, it's anybody's guess what the outcome may be. And that regardless of what's said.

I'm glad we were able to clear the air. You're a pretty cool chic, Jess! :main_thumbsup:

I wasn't a newbie, I had been around for nearly a year and didn't realize these things LOL

But yes, the fact that he's from NY explains a lot lol

I am going to start doing what everyone does to me and start reporting posts... LOL

Gregg, please do report the posts. Everyone has to play by the same rules but if we don't know what people are saying then we can't deal with it. I probably wouldn't have caught that post and then he would have thought he could get away with calling people jerks.

But come on...for people who don't know you, you do come off as being really abrasive. I thought you liked to ruffle people's feathers!

Thats just my personality... I dont really ruffle feathers face to face and I talk exactly how I type... LOL... Maybe I just type all fucked up in other peoples eyes...

I guess most people are not used to a straigh shooting type personality... You really need to talk to me in person and you will be able to put how I talk to my writting... Maybe one day we will talk... I am warning you though, I like to talk and you might actually enjoy a convo with me... LOL

Some people just cant take advice. Gregg mate, you were right and imo did nothing to ruffle feathers lol, who thought of that saying anyway.

Im the same way, a str8t shooter and my boss knows it all to well. Im an easy going down to earth bloke but if i don't agree with someone im going to put my point down straight. I know there has been a couple of times where i may have offended or pissed someone off on here and i usually try to end a debate peacefully before it gets too heated but ill say what needs to be said.

All you can do is say your what you have to say, its up to them to take it or leave it. Sound advice on that thread by the way bro. But you can be a bit of a ass packie lol jk mate
