Quote: All you know how to do is run your mouth off
LOL, I really got a kick out of that one. Too bad I'm about done with this L-A-W-Y-E-R (to steal a spelling from Dennis Keith on HA). As soon as he runs out of REALLY stupid thigs to say, he get an "ignore" prize.

Got busy this afternoon and see I missed more projectile vomiting from the mouth of blue. Blue, you are suffering from the worst case of a rectal cranial inversion I have EVER SEEN!
Roger IS one of the finest people I have met out here and Chic has been a good friend and mentor to me for quite some time. I find you tasteless and incompetant. Bring that pie hole of yours over to my neck of the woods sometime - I'll send you home with an "I just pumped the neighbors cat" look on your face.

Aww, Jimmy, that really means something coming from you!!
BTW, we are in the process of buying tickets to Alaska, don't know if I'll be stopping to see you or not yet. Leaving here on Aug. 7 and back on Aug. 20 or 21.

I certainly don't understand the reasons for so many things being said here by many different parties. I might also add I am surprized by the printing of private messages on a public forum. Is this the nicest thing to do, especially in the light of what is going on here? I know it will cause me to be more careful about what and who I wrote anything too in the future.
I am also really surprised such a simple question elevated into such a circus. I thought it was a fair question, and was interested in some honest answers.

The good old boy system is clearly at work. And I have no problem with that. But lets get back to why this started in the first place.
It started because you folks in the Custom Gun Guild and the Engraves Guild can't stand it when people mention craftsmen who aren't in the guilds.
Moreover, what this post is about is predictability. It never fails that when a guild member hears that somebody from outside the guilds is good they take the stance that Mr. Kehr took here tonight. The argument starts out the same every time. "Well, how could you be qualified to say that." and then next its always attack the other guys profession, and finally it gets personal, and the friends are brought in, and on and on into the night.
You folks like to dish it out, but it is clear that you don't like to take it. And you don't like to admit that other people can know someting about custom guns and engraving.
If you are not in the guild, then I admit my mistake.
Moreover, this has not been about "your" engraving. I do happen to know a few things about engraving, and yours is very very good in my unprofessional opinion.
But how many times are you going to say goodnight? Please, please, please, use the ignore button so I don't have to listen to you anymore.
blue, you just don't get it. It has nothing to do with who is in the guild, but I can guess where you got that load of crap. It is just that we do not like you, your attitude and everything about you. You are an insufferable prick,end of story. and now:
***YOU ARE IGNORING THIS USER***

You know, this "ignore" button is like a bit of chlorine in the pool, isn't it? I wonder if Swamp-gas never activated it because nobody would ever respond to him again.

blue one more thing before I cryogenically freeze your dumb ass. Joe Smithson is in the guild. So there goes that stupid theory, pass it along where you got it.

Thanks for the plug buddy, but anyone who knows me well and has saw my work knows that I'm another 10 years out at LEAST before I put out anything decent.
I thought this post might be interesting. I skipped two pages and didn't miss a thing. You are all in the same league as far as I am concerned. I'm sure I'm wasting my time, then I think about each of you actually continuing this drivel. No more from me. You an cutscrollsforbluecustomscrewalvinstockamaniac223's and I wish the best of luck to each of you.
Pitful children, flame me, I won't be around to see it.

Goodnight.
I find this unfortunate and most regrettable.
From one who is interested in the art and the profession, particularly from the books that Steven Dodd Hughes and Tom Turpin have published on the subject, I would like to think this forum could be an extension of their input.
They've both been here.
Sadly, the opportunity was selfishly squandered.

It is regrettable, but some people just can't read these things without taking them seriously, and the ones that should, don't.
I don't mind the occasional pissing match, online or in person, but I'm not sanding on my chair screaming at my computer (like Jimmyd223 does). To me it is all part of keeping the worst of the BS to a minimum. You have to be able to skip over what ticks you off (I stay out of the Political now; so many posts, so little IQ) and if you can't handle this new form of communication, you start to think everyone is a callus, foul and itching for a fight.
In short, some people just don't remember that someone that has been a nice person for 2000 posts and very mannerly, is still the same person that told someone else they were an idiot. Maybe the world needs less caffine

Maybe we could work up a who-is-who list of the folks that have left AR in disgust. Lord knows, some pretty interesting folks have been drummed out of here or just nauseated to the point of no return.
Pretty sad day as far as I'm concerned. There is NO ONE I'd rather hear from than SDH.
