Why do I think I can throw children over my head and why is RT driving me crazy?

[Mel&Keith]

Yesterday I was flipping kids over my head and one of them happened to only a few inches shorter than me. I don't know what I was thinking, having a history of herniated disks and all.... Boy am I paying for it today! I can't move and it hurts to breathe. Advil and muscle relaxers are helping but it sure is hard to type on Somas.. lol

Anyway,

So Ron emailed me asking for a public apology after someone told him about this post: (sorry Kelli, I feel bad now. I'm sure it stirred stuff up a little)

That thread over there is almost painful to read. I'm so pleased that we rarely have that kind of bullying here on this forum. I would also like to mention that it is completely unfair (for Diablo) to say that one breeder in particular holds back new morphs for generations to "prove" that they have no genetic problems unless he has personal proof of that. That breeder sent us a completely blind gecko and a gecko that he had bred previous to shipping and then tried to hide the fact. That seems unethical to me. Pig tails have been a known genetic problem from inbreeding in another "big" breeder's lines. So to say that Enigma breeders are trying to hide problems is unfair. So, off of that tangent...

After I told him that I was referring to the replacement who was almost finished laying for the season and mentioned that the SGA male was only a Giant he apologized and said that he'd do anything to make it up to me, blah, blah, blah... He was practically begging me to forgive him and insisting tat he really was a nice person. So he offered a SG male from his site and I asked what the parents were. Giant x Giant. SO he's listed as a SG but only has a 25% chance of being a SG. Hell, he could even be a big normal. :wall:

WTF ever...

People can't successfully cast you in a shady light if you don't do anything shady for them to go on. My opinion of RT just keeps getting worse and worse. I'd say screw apologizing. Making a "public apology" would just continue to keep RT in a positive facade when he pulls shady shit like that. It's false and deceitful.

He's such a dillweed. I wouldn't apologize if I were you.

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Ditto. I'd just ignore him completely.

 

[Mel&Keith]

I didn't want to go through posting all of the emails but I basically told him that I would never post anything in a public forum that I felt I needed to apologize for and I stand by that.

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Good.

Sounds like you handled it quite well!

I hope your back is feeling better soon!
