If Greg wishes to close the thread, he can.

Dave and Garrity - the Rennlisters who are most at risk for defamation - have not requested the thread to be closed. If they are OK with the thread continuing, then anyone else who may not like the thread can simply refrain from clicking on it.

Close this thread? This is the best thread ever.

In all my days I've not seen more jump to conclusioning, extrapolating to wild extremes, accusing to the highest order without all the facts, self righteousness and holier than thou indignation, and general douchiness of the finest vintage.

And the old conspiracy theories about the "core group" doing bitch slaps, doing back room deals, and pulling strings. What a crock.

You guys crack me up. I crack myself up.

Now, for something actually useful. I propose we create a new user FAQ. It should be titled something like:

"928 Drama Lama FAQ", or "928 Douche Bags 101", or "If you've not got anything better to do, then read this so you will properly know how to jump to wild conclusions, create better wild scenarios, and win friends and influence people FAQ".

That way, any newbies can immediately come up to speed on the history of the best douchiness and wouldn't have to waste time trying to figure out which side to take, or who to condemn first. Think of all the time we could save.

I know something like that would have helped me greatly.

Thanks for listening as I'm extremely bored and I thought I would entertain myself by posting something particularly obnoxious and this seemed like the best thread to do it in.

Ed

ps: I hope the parts turn up and this can be resolved. I also hope all of you that are embroiled in some type of 928 related deal gone wrong situation also reach some type of satisfactory conclusion.

pss: I hope you old timers can find a way to continue to contribute, without the collective wisdom here there's not a chance in hell I could own a 928.

Back to the meaning of the word "douchy" ... I surmise in some dialects, it could mean something like: "tasty", as in "Dude, these cheese sauce dumplings are super douchy!". Or perhaps, one could be knighted into a Douchy, as in "On his left, the Douche of Westchester has just arrived" ... or, "His Holiness was inducted into the Douchy by Pope John Clementine in the early 4th century A.D. among a quorum of his peers" ....

Meant to include this in my last post:

"This will be my last post in this thread on this matter."

Then I will continue to post annoying posts.

Good for you, but maybe the next guy won't be so lucky.
There were a few "thanks for the warning" posts, but on the whole the warnings were being rejected and that's fine. Do what you will with who you want. I have better things to do with my time than trying to help people who already have all the answers. I wish you all the best with your 928's, but I think I am going to take my toys and go play somewhere else. Don't bother with responses to this, because not only will I not be checking back here, but I just don't really care anymore. Have a nice Day.


Yeah, I'm sure we are all heartbroken that you won't be spewing your political opinions anymore. Heres all of your recent posts.

Don't let the door hit you in the @$$.

I love that asked that the way you did. This thread has become my alternative to ABC show "Lost". It won't be on again until next year, so this is perfect.

If I remember right, we helped you avoid the same deal Brendan. Oh, that's right, it was a clerical error that he didn't give you the title back...

So Jack has been run off of the 928 forum by people who don't know any better. He was a great asset to the community and his skill and knowledge will be missed. All he was doing was relating his personal experience and got nothing but doubters? How many of these "knowledgable" folks can't say that they have had anything to do with either "the un-named individual" or us but they have already formed what they consider to be an unbiased opinion without knowing really any of the facts in the matter? This wasn't "he said, she said" with Jack, it was first hand, personal involvement yet some of you question it?

I have no plans on requesting that this thread be closed, we have nothing to hide. I sincerely wish I could come out with all the information I have but am restricted from doing so. Anyone that knows us should easily be able to understand that we would have way more to lose by stealing anything let alone some used engine parts than we could ever gain by the use/sale of said parts. We have so much more and better stuff just lying around on our shelves that it's not even funny. Why would we jepordize our business for such a small gain?

Back to Jack, he said repeatedly that he was only trying to avoid a similar situation happening to any one of you newbies that may fall prey to this gentleman's "business procedures". I sure do wish I had taken his advise before we got caught up in this.

Fabio, why are you cross posting a bunch of crap from the Politics and Controversy forum in a 928 thread. I don't get your point. Keep that **** over there.

The OP has a 928 related beef as did Jack post a 928 related beef. Nothing to do with Politics.

Jack is a stand up guy in my book. He has never given me any reason to think otherwise.

Just sayin.

I have a beef with the guy Greg is trying to help...so do at least another half-dozen folks that are active in this post. Jack was the only one willing or able to voice his end of it. If Greg hangs around him long enough, he will have a beef with him too. We all trusted him at least once, most once to many times.
