Someone private messaged me and said people were flaming me!

What's up with that?

cueball73 · 10-12-2010, 11:33 PM

seriously, if anyone saw any of the comments, let me know.

cueball73 · 10-12-2010, 11:34 PM

also, why on earth would anyone complain about it? or remove it???

Various members were quite outspoken about the fact that you'd saved your first post to tell us you're leaving Pentax. It wasn't pretty. So one of the other mods removed it.

OH... well, I am really sorry I didn't get to respond to them. I would have loved to...

FWIW, that wasn't my first post. I have had MANY on this site, under a different name. I just didn't feel like dealing with people who knew me debating me about leaving Pentax, etc. While it was not my personal preference, I was confident in my reasons.

So, In other words, Instead of manning up and having a pair.... simply announcing that Pentax wasn't doing it for you, Peace Out, it's been real fun.... you decide to hide behind a phantom ID? Then you're surprised at the response? FWIW.... nothing.

wow... I feel so enlightened by your very intelligent and mature comments.

I am sure others do as well.

thank you so much for making the world a better place today.

Cueball, no offense, but why not just leave and be done with it? You've admitted you basically signed up again, just to leave, which doesn't make much sense no matter how much of an explanation you give it, and when it caused controversy and you got deleted back you come again looking for yet more response. Seems to me you want the controversy more than you simply want to leave maybe? You don't want to shoot with Pentax anymore, fine, your call, but why start this? Why keep coming back for more if you're supposedly done? Just let it go and GO.

Amen to that.

I'm locking this thread before it goes the same way.
