So you want to Opti-Coat do yah?

What does "k" mean?

Should I ask my Nephew?

oh you are so mad! grrr!!!

lol yes, ask your nephew what "k", "ok" or "okay" mean. but please - ask him via email or on an internet forum; places where you apparently have your most meaningful communications on absolute minutiae.
 
If someone had called me out on a Forum for statements and assumptions I had posted; I would be researching the facts to substantiate my claims

I applaud you for your persistence. 15 years ago, I would too, I'd bring out the technical books and such. These days, I find it better to be more tolerant, and more care-free, especially on a forum.

I try not to annoy, and I try not to be easily annoyed. "Try" being the operative term. :)

I tend to agree with you

I am particularly interested in what Builthatch had to say, because it is information that I have been unable to verify on my own

Well Allen...I guess you are not going to receive a response.

I didn't really expect one


I think he has now "Blocked" my posts in his page view

I have never heard of someone doing that, have you?
 
Wish everyone could get along and not argue, it's really not worth it IMO.

of course. i am the same way. but that's not what makes some people happy.

aggressive, abrasive people want others to be the same. and when you walk the other way, they get even more upset. but at least it's only one person acting stupid in that scenario instead of two :)
 
Not angry, aggressive or stupid

I just read the posts and if there is something in it I don't understand or have not heard before, I ask for more information or clarification

You can tell when I'm angry


I type in ALL CAPS!

I can understand that "action" in some situations but not in this case. I don't believe you were "aggressive or abrasive." Statements were put forth and you asked for factual clarification. I have found this discussion enlightening. :xyxthumbs:

That would be nice or at the very least agree to disagree at times. This is not directed at you Sicoupe but the person calling foul here should remember other postings on this particular product. When that company changed things and questions were asked, well lets just say it's interesting what is now "aggressive and abrasive." That also applies to the products forum, interesting indeed.
Being Thanksgiving is but a few days away, may you ALL have a wonderful holiday for those who celebrate!:dblthumb2:

i told the dude i'm not interesting in talking to Dr. G about his questions when he has a direct line of communication to Dr. G. via email (where he was acting the same way to Dr. G that he was toward me.) he didn't like my lack of care to do his work, so he got upset. you can easily re-read the posts and see that.

you have a dialogue with them, no need for me to overlap that with the same inquiries, esp. if i don't care. i'm fine with my assumptions because the product kicks ass. if i had a problem with the product in some way, shape or form, i'd be asking more questions but it does everything i expect it to and i trust that Dr. Ghodoussi knows what he's doing with the stuff that's out of my control. but honestly, i have better things to do ; )

thanks.

i said i wasn't a chemist. but i gave you observations that lead me to believe certain things. assumptions, educated guesses, whatever. this isn't a court trial, it's a forum. i am not the one that has problems with the semantics, you are. i do not have a problem with one aspect of Opti-Coat. so why should i contact Dr. G to answer your questions?

you apparently approached him like an investigative reporter and it looks like it made the exchange uncomfortable. now you are becoming slightly aggressive to me.

again, you have the phone number and email of the gentleman who created the product. if he can't help you, i can't help you and i shouldn't be expected to help on top of that.

then i told him an observation about my wasted tube of 2.0. Chad chimed in calling me out on it, i responded to that with further detail and again, the other guy got upset about my answer as if it was something it wasn't. he wanted it to be something that it was never meant to be and i illustrated that from the start.

i don't have time to deal with that stuff here, man. i spent over a decade as staff on one of the biggest, troll-filled automotive sites on the web. i want a hassle free experience here. if i clear the decks and say i do not care enough to do someone else's work for them and answer their questions (not mine), that means back off. if you don't back off, you get blocked. that's why the function is available with vB (the platform this forum and others like it use).

now that i've gone above and beyond to explain myself, i hope everyone is happy with the semantics i've used. if not, don't respond because, just like that guy's line of questioning - i do not care.

MOVE ON.
 
"i told the dude"

I am the furthest thing from "the dude"


"that means back off. if you don't back off, you get blocked"

So you don't get to see my posts?

Any of them?

I can say anything I want and you can't see it at all?

That sounds Fun
 
Will someone please quote my last post so it will bypass Builthatches Maginot Line Defense and he has to read it
 
If you missed my wit & humor during the last 24 hours, it is because I ran afoul of the AGO Forum Admin with the post above

"Will someone please quote my last post so it will bypass Builthatches Maginot Line Defense and he has to read it "

I should NOT have done that

If Built does not want to read my comments, he has every right to block my posts


Built,

I honestly didn't know you were getting upset enough to report me to Admin.

In the future, I will refrain from posting questions in your threads or about your posts

No hard feelings, I hope


I try to ask intelligent questions and bring some humor

Not all if my attempts are successful

I didn't know you were gone; and, after all:
it appears to have just been a short-lived vacation.

Then again (and if I'm not mistaken):
It was back in 2006 that my doctor said I'd be immune to any further head trauma.
