I don’t get to spend much time here and rarely visit other forums, so if I’m to be made aware of anything it’d have to appear here.

I think it’s important such ‘information’ DOES appear here in some form, especially if it concerns two or more actual members of this forum. Otherwise it’s like deleting posts before they’re made!

I do fully understand how negative experiences regularly mutate into pie-slinging and damage more than one man’s reputation, but without negative feedback the positive stuff becomes a farce. Perhaps repeatedly turning a blind eye to a known issue will result in more long term harm, who knows.

I don’t know if there’s any means by which you can keep negative feedback content orderly other than relying on each member’s conscience to keep a bad review as objective as possible. I know this is difficult, so perhaps a policy of consulting mods with an intended ‘bashing’ might be an idea, before a shitstorm goes public.

Of course, if you have a problem with a machinist who’s also a mod that’s a different kettle of fish.
Perhaps we need a mission statement 😆

Shadoh, if people would like to leave Feedback for people that they have done business with then that is fine, and they can do that here, be it good or bad.

Tony has a mill and lathe and spends far to much time slaving over them. He makes everything he does. You should hear the whining…lol

I think since Our friend of a hundred names has been made, again. It will be some time before he stirs up the pot, again. He saw an opportunity to jump in and fan the flames. Shit, i knew who bond was, LW was a surprise. He’s been told told cease or be canned, again. You guys sure hes not over herre as well. Jlee was asking about everything, i know many of you know him, maybe give him a PM and see if he comes over?

LOL, no need bud, it was only me griping about it.

I did notice something that irked me today on the TOG though. Bond(Okyas) insinuated that Tony isnt a machinist and that he has someone else do his work for him while he just sits at the computer. Then Denskin and Dragon both back up his trash talking while at the same time saying they are above that sort of thing. How can you support baseless bashing from a guy known to spew lies over just about every airgun forum out there but then in the very same paragraph say you are above that sort of thing? Amazing. Whats even funnier is that Okyas did exactly what he says Tony does. He would sell services and then have his “machinist friend” do the work for him.

Here is the link to that thread if your interested.

Personally I dont think you have to go to school or get some fancy cert. to call yourself something if you know what your doing. Your work will speak for itself. I know for a fact that Tony bought a lathe to do this work. I saw several of his posts on machinist sites inquiring on which lathes would be suitable for the work he wanted to do and he gave examples of what he wanted. I believe I saw him asking on two separate sites. I remember this because it was about the same time I was scouring the machinist sites for the exact same reason. We both ended up going with the same machine but two different brands. This isnt to say that Tony does or doesnt farm out machine work. Im just saying that you dont invest in that kind of machinery if your not going to use it. Only Tony can speak for his work.

Tell me if Im out of line for posting this but it was nagging on me today. I guess I could move it to the Yellow ). Although I dont know where it would go over there.
