Well Mr. Eddietude,

Seems that you have skill in stirring up trouble.  You were kicked off of the
311s forum for creating trouble.  Then you sneaked in as 311fan and seem to
have restrained yourself somewhat.

It is easy to see why you have affinity for the guy that is posting parts for
sale.  You flogged and flogged your junk cars and parts on 311s under both of
your identities, then on ebay and also on Craigs list over and over again.
You berated people for giving you lowball offers for your junk and said that
you knew what the value was.  You even told people on ebay what an expert you
were on junk parts value.

Based on your postings, you avoid the regular vendors and blast them for high
prices.

For your information, the lower a-arm spindle shafts that you arranged to have
built are of questionable quality.  Within the last month a brand new one from
your supplier was received and the threaded end had fallen off of the main
shaft.  Wonder if one of your installed ones will fall apart?  Hang on tight!

It is time that you crawled back under your rock or your pile of junk parts.

PD

Jim,

You forgot a few other reasons.

3) Forum Subject Gods.  In every forum, there are those who think they
are the end all, be all know it all about the subject of the forum.
Usually these pathetic people have nothing else going on in their lives,
and their entire existence or "being" is wrapped up in that one
subject.  In this case, the subject being "Datsun Roadsters".

4) Sense of Entitlement.  Many times, this is coupled with #3.  As a
"expert" these people think they should get everything for free, or at a
"discount" over others.  Like somehow their "advanced knowledge"
entitles them to things over other roadster owners.

As for "talking roadsters".... again, someone posting they have parts
for sale IS talking roadsters.  It's letting the community know he has
parts for sale.

To further the irony, right after a select few here got their panties in
a bunch, someone posted they needed a specific part.  Yet the very
person who HAS what they need has been unceremoniously booted from the
list, thus doing a disservice to the entire community.  Someone show me
the logic in that...

Again, let's be real and honest.  The issue wasn't his posting the
parts.  It was the prices.  IF he'd posted stuff cheap, those who got
upset wouldn't care in the least.  They got upset because they didn't
like his prices... again, sense of entitlement...

Not stirring up trouble, just keeping it REAL.

Eddie
