Could you please uncensor B P at least? Every G.Skill PI kit is censored because the product numbers are 4G:banana::banana:I ( 4GB.PI )...
I'd come visit you, Chris, except you live in a KIP aka Atlanta.:p:Quote:

If that is the case have you taken a look at your little rock lately? Besides Guinness, potatoes, and an excess of firecrotches, I don't know of anything useful that has come off that rock in the last century.
I'm running out to the door for some girl's birthday party, otherwise I'd look up some things to slam Ireland on. Sorry, I'm half-assing this bashful post :down:
RRR is a kid with a big mouth behind his monitor, just ignore that kid.
One word to sum up that site: PATHETIC
Don't forget to bring your guns... in case you get shot and raped. :lol:Quote:

lol i'm quite impressed but how many so called "adults" can act like little junior high girls. quite entertaining, but i think this case crossed the line
anyways, mods can you please take off the censored B*P? this is the fault of only a few individuals, but the whole forum has to pay for it and most will not see this thread or know where it's coming from. those dancing bananas are funny and cute at first, but now it's just annoying. like how you mods said, it's the people, not the product. ok so vince was banned already, but B*P is the PRODUCT, so why censor it?
shazza, welcome to the club. While I've not notified any of the companies involved, I've had my own little quiet boycott going since Jan. of this year. I happened to mention that I had "personal issues" with one of the vendors in an older topic and it drew a lot more attention than I thought it would, I wound up answering something like 10 PM's on the matter. Some respectfully went on their way without a reply after I explained, others responded and said they could understand my point of view but did nothing, 2-3 decided to join me and 1 (yes 1) shot back a fiery PM that ended in "IGNORED", that 1 person was a "supposed friend" who is now banned from XS.Quote:

Obviously I'm not banned, but it could have easily happened given I've been a member there for over 6 months.
As far as Vincent goes, banning him demonstrates an acute cluelessness about how sponsorship and advertising often work unless there's something FAR bigger behind the scenes... Any company can advertise with anyone. That doesn't mean their reps are best buds with the admins of the site...

i dont want to start trouble, as i am discussing it with someone
But some would disagree. Many were banned, some having absolutely no correlation with the problem and are even good active members here
Vincent caused trouble?Quote:

But I really don't like seeing a good guy like Vincent banned unless there's some compelling reason for it. And to me his company being a paid sponsor of the site does NOT mean he's personally involved in any of this.
Apparently, it seems that way. As to why, maybe someone else can answer that.Quote:

Well I suppose it's not my place to question how this site is run and why.Quote:

Seriously? I'm being called out? Wow I had no idea I was that important :rofl:Quote:

If members over there drop in here and cause trouble, ban said members. But other than that, leave them swim in their own mudbath.

As to Vincent, read the above. This had nothing to do with his company and their advertisements there but with the individual so please, stop the drama ok?
Not true, I made the list based on posts I saw there.Quote:

That simple.
now.... how to remove these logos on my fittings, shall I post a tutorial when I figure it out?
Yes I did read it, and I'd love to know what a "hate post" is, but that's really nothing to do with the point I'm trying to make.Quote:

clearly you haven't read the bigotry and hate that is posted on that forum, you would know clearly what a hate-post is.Quote:
