I would like to pick up on the disscussion between trash & stryder.

fFirstly JT is of the opinion that I took offence to him through a joke he & cinemo had about cinemo's 840av.

This is not true. This is false.

I took offence to trash because it felt like every time I made a positive suggestion trash would reply with a negative comment.

I realised there was a problem & so addressed the issue & spent some time trying to find out more about trashes charachter.

AFAIC trashes character is good to have about.

Now, we all have charachters & we all do something that annoy's someone else.

I am apparently terrible for it? I personally think I have a cheeky, English sarcastic wit. Others do not see it so?

As for trash, he reminds me of charachters I have worked with in real life. Sometimes ppl make themselves a niche through having a very strong charachter & can scare newcomers/youngsters.

You are a powerful & successful man trash & therefore you can tend to appear threatening.

There is nothing "wrong" with trashes personality.

There is nothing "wrong" with my personality.

There is nothing "wrong" with stryders personality.

I have learned alot & working for a collective is a skill to be learnt.

I am here to make the forums successful & for this reason I work with all members here, even the ones I am not so keen on.

The debate that went on between trash & stryder lost interest & focus. I just skimmed through most of it!

(This isn't directed at Trash in any way, just the comment as you can tell. I don't really agree that Trash is intimidating. Negative at times? Maybe. That was partly where my reaction came from.)

To those easily impressed by power or wealth, I suppose. Those that stay grounded and see people for what they are "People", then you see them as no better than you or me. There ae only two things that keep the supposed classes from interacting with one-another. One is the fear that you're speaking of Shakti. Nine times out of ten you'll find that willing ear as long as you have you're thoughts in order. The second is Snobbish attitude. That's something I just can't stand. I don't care who someone is, they act like that , then they're nothing but a jacka$$. You can take any C.E.O. and know that without those under them, they'd have no job, money, or power. Heck the more I watch the news, the more I see C.E.O.'s getting a bad reputation for basic thievery of the their company's asset's. Is that really someone to look up to or fear? It's those that don't forget their beginnings to keep an eye on. Those that stay possitive and open to all around them. Those are the people that instill loyalty, optimism, and over-all, a future.

As for Trash, I feel that he considers carefully, than makes his mind up and stands by it stubornly, (As I often do myself). I believe he looks for the negative more often, not to be a pain, but more to underscore where something could go if taken in the wrong direction. Although I usually take to the other side of things to see all the good possibilities an action may merit, I also have found I've worked best with other people that do the same as Trash. Normally the outcome that is acceptable by both parties will be clear,concise, and fair.

Aww man, look what you did Shakti,....you got them going again. Now I'm gonna need the kids wiffle-ball bat handy. I especially don't want to where the criss-cross of the Estwing (nice hammer by the way), as it's blue grip is grasped by a giggling, powerful, and successful man on the verge of taking out people that get cheeky with him. ROFLMAO, I still can't stop laughing from that first post in this thread from Trash. It was too perfect. Either that or I'm still giddy from all my trips into that other thread room with all that.....GAS.

Cheers for the humourous replies [;-)]

I don't have a stick of anyting, but as I am Shaktiman I warn use all that if use is taking the mickey outa me I may have to "wup"(I believe that to be an American term & therefore believe most of you will understand it) use all down, utilising my superhuman powers innit.

PS: Of course I do have a stick but I don't plan to use it on anyone I've met here[:-0]

Hey shakti, you forgot my position in that debate I agree with stryder, and trash equally (though, sorry srtyder, trash's reply is more humerous)
Oh well, lets start more heated debates, though trying not to get @ each others throats.
anyway, good luck all

Well I don't have any formally recognised weapons but a Quartermaster is never without a nailgun, a crowbar and a several bags of rubber bands. Not to mention me being able to throw a tarpaulin over the lot of ya to calm u down

Anywayyy.... JT was one of the first ppl to welcome me in, along with cinemo, so I have always liked them. No offense to Stryder, he seems a nice guy too

I have to say JT did upset me once when he took the Micheal out of my 840av but I realised (after an initial red haze and trying to stop myself replying to hastily) that it was all in jest, he's just 'avin a larrrf as we say...
