huh?
i meant me going nazi on your caps, not you talkin' about smileys.

i have the same attitude towards smileys, 'specially the fucking rolly eyes one. annoying but harmless unless it's :D:D:D:D:D all over the place.

you love jimmy's rolly eyed one you liar

you have no idea how much i despise rolly eyed smileys used when replying to arguments.

it comes from years of having the real rolly eyes made at me, due to me being an idiot.

Its the internet. There really is no "seniority" - and no "hazing" is required. I'll take a gentle nudge if I'm fucking up - but I won't be talked down to!

I'm new to this forum, but I'm not new to forums in general nor to "life."

Anyone can act tough on the internet - and I try not to be "that guy." I'm not above matching tactics, though.

all i said was smileys will get someone on your ass quick if you want. not to mention in conjunction with running yer fuckin flaps.

No, you didn't.

As for someone "getting on my ass" - I could give a shit less. Again, this is the internet - the online bully isn't shit when it comes down to it.

THIS is shortscale.org. it is not the internet. there is seniority here. you are at the very bottom of the pecking order ATM. this is where you start until you've proven that you are of worthy acceptance. (which i am still yet to do).

if you are new to this forum, you are new to life.

and you were clearly that tuff guy earlier. talk shit to 0ldbs, and you will be dealt with accordingly. i've seen it happen several times over the last month. just saying, don't come in here with guns blazing acting like you know everything and yer shit don't stink.

This shite doesn't belong in the knowledge forums, despite this being a very, very dead thread by someone who doesn't really post here.

I hope that boosted your ego some, and I'm glad you got it off of your chest. YOU are very important here. Congrats!

As for me - I am who I am. I'm not here to kiss your ass while waiting for you to "accept" me.

I don't "buy in to" your "pecking order." It worked while I was in the Army - but it doesn't work on the internet.

I've "met" some great members here so far - many "welcomed" me when I posted a thread with photos of my shortscales - to include some live shots playing out with my band. I never came here "like I know everything" - and I didn't just come trolling in here to raise hell. I think it is fairly obvious that I'm a short scale owner and player who gets out and gigs. I might know a thing or two. I've also tried to make a couple of helpful posts so far - one of which you posted right afterwards (talking about a way that works for me to remove superglued knobs on pots). Then again, I didn't exactly see you over on the "welcome wagon" when I showed up like many members took a second to do - just a backhanded comment about how I used TWO smiley faces shortly after my arrival. I said it earlier... "It'll be OK." Relax. I'm not a dickhead, I'm not a troll, but I'm not going to be batted around because you have more posts on an internet forum than I do.

you get shafted if you're a wanker. dice seems like more of a.. strong character shall we say?

you might get into some unsavoury debates if you start talking shite to members who've been here longer but if you can argue your corner without resorting to stuff like name calling (tribilolz) and try not to hold grudges you most likely won't be "dealt with". that's not shortscale style.

Thanks. I'm really not trying to be "out of control." I mentioned it earlier - I'm a mod at another guitar forum - and the last thing that I'm trying to do is be out of line.

I love short scale Fenders - there isn't much discussion about them where I've "hung out" in the past - so I'm excited to have found a group that is in to the same guitars that I am.

"Strong Character" - I can see that. I've got a military and law enforcement background - I guess its just my nature!

I do understand that there is a "getting to know me" phase that will happen here - which is fine - I get that.

I'll keep it low key so long as the respect is flowing both ways!

(last smiley)

it's not my pecking order, dickcheese. my ego's boosted plenty without telling you in the first couple days what it took me a few weeks to figure out. i don't need to accept anyone, i'm here for the guitars, not necessarily the people. although i've gotten a lot of help from the people who know a lot. you might be one of those some day. if so, thanks in advance, but please don't come kicking shit around when someone says smileys are annoying. i am not very important here, never pretended to be.

you have to know about getting in where you fit in, you were in the "army" for "christ's sake."

shit, i didn't capitalize anything! GASPZ

all that aside, i didn't welcome you when you posted a bunch of shit slinging in a dead ass thread. sorry, i'll try to track down the one where you poasted all yer pics of yer sweet shortscales.

hope that didn't get you into one of your (already evident) 'take 15 minutes to examine every aspect of every post and then recap with a snide remark' moods.

Ah, the name calling. I see how it is.

Alright, I'm not going go round after round.

MY mentioning that this cat should post a picture of his guitar wasn't a big deal.

I didn't mention anyone's caps or spelling errors until a I took a bunch of flack over nothing. Just a little ribbing. I hope that is "acceptable." Or is this a super strait laced no smiles kind of place? I don't think so, from what I've seen.

I don't hold any grudges - and I'm not trying to get on your bad side. I'm just not a weak character - I may speak up from time to time, particularly if you try and talk to me like I'm a child. I also enjoy a good debate. I'm half way through law school - so that is pretty much what I do - I debate and discuss topics, without taking anything personally.

I look forward to "getting to know you" in the future.

cool, sounds good.

Excellent!

To everyone who had to read this trainwreck... I'm sorry. ...For hijacking this very strange thread!!

Best behavior from here on out.

this holds true for anyone.

i retract me saying you're harmless earlier, you're clearly an idiot hotrod.

fukn clearly man. clearly.

No hard feelings - none at all.

I enjoyed the E-Argument!

I guess we can let this thread die, which is where it was headed anyways - before SOME NOOB started raising hell! (sorry about that)

has no one quoted this and wrote a witty comeback yet? I mean, I don't have one, but this thread is obviously a classic example of "trolling". Yours truly, Captain Obvious.
