Dude: "Hey Darrin?

I think even Jack here will join me in saying shut up. You were without a doubt the bigest pain in the ass customer the two of us had to deal with on these DD's and we even got your order changed for the 4 the 5th time after the order window closed then you still cancelled your order and demanded a refund so sit down please
"

Steve edited his post when he realized that it was possible that he could be in the wrong for abusing his customers. I believe there was the f word in there somewhere, like as in "shut the f*** up". See? This is the type of abuse that people endured on a daily basis, that is, IF Steve was communicating with his customers on a given day. Then you had this attitude about it, Steve, like "that's my personality". I don't think that's your personality, Steve, I think its the drugs talking. The drugs fueling your frustration at simple paperwork, which you have proven to be incompetent at. You might be a tell-it-like-it-is guy, but to be simply rude, abusive and ridiculing toward people who give you money is just asinine.

Where in the hell have you been??? Last I knew you were my moderator of two critical forums then you disappered about November without so much as a peep to me about needing a break.


I believe it was about November that you had been on about a two-month long binge. No wonder Cheezewiz bailed on you. Working for a drug addict may as well be like sticking an egg beater into your brain and cranking it a few times. Not only that, this person probably considered themselves your friend, and watching you kill yourself just got to be unbearable.

And then this is Steve's response to someone posting who obviously wants him to get help. He laughs!

Dude: "LOL...ok whatever. Carry on. This shall cease to be public over here regardless of what bull**** is spouted over there or anywhere.

Those of you who chose BP's side in this don't come back. Don't make me chase your stupid juvneville asses around with you're troll registrations just go and be gone and I'll deal with Dargin or Aziah and Rex, Lisa, Mike & Jerry on these last few and it will be done soon enough. BP and Jack I sure wish I hadn't answered the phone that night...I really do and BP if you ever bring up my father again all bets are off on what might happen. That was the lowest ****ing thing I've ever heard come out of your mouth and you are just flat out the lowest piece of ****ing scum for pulling that one out of your pocket.

**** you!

Show's over folks.


Steve, I wonder how many times you've used your father as an excuse about why you were incommunicado. I know for certain that you lied about it once back in October, why wouldn't you lie about it again? Speaking of your parents, if you have a $64K line of credit, why do your credit cards always get declined? What happened to all that money, Steve? In the words of Grandmaster Flash:

"This ain't funny but he took his money and sniffed it up his nose!"

...his nose, or any other creative body cavity you can think of.

Don't you dare ever threaten BP again. You should be thanking him for keeping your skinny crack ass afloat this long. Honestly, Steve, and I mean this with all the concern of a friend, you should be dead by now. You're LUCKY you aren't. Leave the business alone and get some perspective and go get yourself some help. Now.

So there. That's my "bile". Do I look like Linda Blair from "The Exorcist" now? :D I think you need an exorcist now, pal. Meth is truly the devil.

I am sure Dan's got better things to do than surf your Pit all day long. He probably got on there just to f*ck with you in a non-confrontational way and also out of curiosity.

I think he might have been going to tell Steve about the time differences between AZ and CA. You know, like if you call Aziah from AZ at 4:30 pm, it's actually 6:30 pm in CA. But I'm just guessing here.

I tried to help you as a friend and as a representative of the Ernie Ball/Music Man company.

Beth, as a normal, functioning human being who has been around you a bit, I can tell you that you do a damned fine job both as a friend and as a company representative. Even when I get you in, you know, trouble.

Part of Bongo's charm is that it unabashedly doesn't give a rat's nose what you say about its looks, its sound will blow that straw right out of your a$$!

It is an impudent strumpet of an instrument, isn't it? "Go ahead, say I look funny, but once you touch my knobs, you're mine, biotch."

If payment for Jack moderating the forum was an issue, I'm sure it would have been brought up well before you came along.

Let me say this in public. Yes, BP gave me two basses and a very nice MB setup, plus a seriously ass-kicking party in Dallas. Never think that I don't get how cool that is. But:

- I would be here, doing the moderating gig, no matter what because I actually believe the crazy things I say about Ernie Ball, Music Man, Bongos, Beth, Dargin, and the rest of you guys.

- Sterling has paid me - not in merchandise, but in friendship and a sense of family that I know I can count on, come good times or bad. He's fed me, watered me, put me up in hotels, let me kiss him on the head and invited me into his home. He knows my wife, my kid, my basses and my good and bad points. He calls me on the phone, he calls me names, I think he loves me and I know I love him. Anyone thinks it's about a free bass is effed in the head.

- That same sense of family goes for Beth, Jon, Drew, Derek, Dargin, Brian, Dudley, and you Forumites. Believe it. It's true.

Also, I do not know - nor do I need to know - what a butt rocket is.

Jack

I remember looking forward to reading Dude's posts on the Pit for years (I joined in 2001.) I considered him a friend. He provided the place that allowed me to make many other friends. I don't know the guy that's running the place now. Beth is right. Meth is the devil. It brings out the worst aspects of someone's personality and eradicates good judgment. This is very sad to me, above all else.

Carry on.

Steve must have made a typo....he said that he wished he never picked up the phone that night...he must have meant pipe......


Steve was bragging that he paid us to all even competitors....he sure got mad when I revealed the source of the funds......

Dude: "
Don't you dare ever threaten BP again.


Not gonna happen. I can guarantee that. Just ain't gonna happen. I hate to see that this has escalated to this point. Jack, you are a friend of mine and we have had some serious serious off line conversations before. You know the ones I am talking about....I would and still will defend you in a minute (not that you need it) and you know why. So you got a free bass or two. So what....they were given to you because YOU deserved them. If anyone has a problem with that....get over it and move on. I applaud you and all the effort you put into this forum and for being my friend. Thanks man....I appreciate it more than you realize.

Big Poppa is a dear and close friend of mine. Everyone here knows it and we have had some conversations that were never discussed with anyone else on here before. One was a few months ago. I will not elaborate on it, but, let's just say...certain things were in place just in case. He told me how emotional he was about that...but he supported me and gave me positive vibes. His one statement that will always stick with me was this "I will make you proud Koogs no matter what, you just get back home safe." I was given a 55% chance....not good odds. I am a hard person who has been through more S**T than most people could think of. He is a great man who has done more for me in life than just talking guitar/bass. I would give my life for him in a minute. He knows it and I mean it. So, any threats to Sterling by ANYONE...you better pack a lunch....I will leave it at that. Talk is that....I am done talking.

Beth...I love our conversations we have and will continue to have. This is lost...I hate to tell you this...you have to walk away now. You will be eaten alive inside if you don't. I don't want to see you hurt anymore over this. We have talked on the phone about this....you have way too many positive things going for you to let this eat you up. Please....let this one go. Some things can't be saved. You are a beautiful person for being there and it is noted by everyone. :cool:

Hey Beth...thanks for the comments on the thread. You hit the nail on the head. In November, when I disappeared from the Pit, it was for several reasons. First of all, as those that know me know, I am a law enforcement officer. I decided I really didn't want my gear purchases funding "habits". It made me sad to do so, because Dude has treated me well over the years, and I considered us friends. Secondly, a divorce I didn't see coming at ALL reared its ugly head in November. Dude knew this, although apparently he forgot. Jack was one of the first people I cried to on the phone about it, and I'll never forget the support he gave me.

Hey, no problem, Cheezewiz. Your comment stuck out in my head when I read it, and was shocked at his response. Sorry about your divorce.

I'm sorry for this in advance, Patsy; but do you remember one of your first posts here when you hotlinked to that pic?

I still laugh insanely when I think about that and the circumstances surrounding it!

LOL again.


I LOVES me some Pat the Cop.

A very small aside in this trainwreck...AZ is ahead of CA...4:30 in AZ = 2:30 CA (or maybe 3:30, is there a 1 or 2 hour difference?)

Arizona does not observe daylight savings. As such, in the summer, AZ is on pacific time. In the winter, AZ is on mountain time. So 4:30 AZ time = 3:30 Cali time in the winter and 4:30 AZ time = 4:30 Cali time in the summer.

This state get so much damn sunshine nobody wants to save it.

I'm done venting. :)
