Whatever you want...I dislike quite a few people, but I think I understand them. I understand and I try to be very slow to judge but repetatively threatening people is not acceptable behavior, regardless of my understanding of what is behind such actions. I get what you're saying. I've held out for a long while before making any solid conclusions about Neal in my mind, even defending him on the forum after exchanging emails and seeing his side of things a bit, but I feel I've seen enough to at least know it's not someone I want to deal with at all anymore. I get where he's coming from I just really don't like how he handles himself as a business person or a person in general. Can't say anything bad about the one large (about 200 dollar) transaction I had with him though that actually went very well to give a little credit.

Sonthert Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I don't know, HM, that last one had your toes over the free throw line. If another mod or Mushy thinks its OK, they have my permission to unhide it. I'm still laughing, though. Hold on, I'm still laughing.Good one.GNR, I completely understand any misgivings you or other people might have about doing business with Neil. With other people's views and experiences, I totally see what you're saying and I agree.Lets move the rest of this line of thought to the Serious Discussion Forum.:Questions About How we Deal With Violence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charley Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I would not even allow one of those glass tips he sells into my house they look like nht pipes.also if he is threatening to shoot ppl take that shit seriously. ppl are crazy in this day and age (not like they were any better in any other age tho) report that and get a restraining order on his ass. (words of advice I should listen too myself lol the last guy who threatened to shoot me wound up getting a restraining order against me. apparently in the state of Indiana its considered a threat to snap a rake handle in half and walk twords someone with it.)

Giant Ninja Robot Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Just wanted to add a last thought from my perspective. I was thinking about it and it was dumb for me to egg you guys on because Neal's racism irked me. I usually pride myself on taking the higher road so forgive me for encouraging a pack mentality of anger, even if many of us think it's justifiable.So personal feelings aside, I think the best thing to do from an objective standpoint would be to let the bully alone because there is no reason to bully an unresponsive and immovable object. Why don't we strive to be that object and keep our foundation of respect and maturity intact, which is what makes us the premier forum to begin with?I move to close this thread soon since 10 pages seems like enough time to vent.

mushrat Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 ive often commented on his being a racist, both here and when i posted occasionally on hd. One of the things, well, oneof the many things, that got him in trouble over there.Eh, I think we'll leave it open. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy. Plus atleast we're not busting on one of our own for a change.Oh, speaking of which, we wont be seeing Hippo for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 fair enough, in that case let's at least not follow in hippo's shadow for those who saw the damn funny but immature comment he left before it was hidden, and keep it reasonable?and I do welcome a change from the inner forum attacks although maybe not the ideal form of change lol.

mushrat Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 Agreed...but hey, we're all human.Plus his having the GALL to call me and want to talk is just so typical as to be just that much funnier.I know you read this as a guest Neil. So I hope you are enjoying the Roast in your honour.And please, stop calling my business and my home, I have nothing to say to you, really.

Sonthert Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Oh, for the record, the Grand Hookah Hose, from informed sources, was basically a rip-off of the nammor hose. It was a joint project between Caravan, Neil and Hookah Company. Something got screwed up and the deal went south. In some degree, Neil had some design input, but in real terms, thank Sami Romman for his brilliant idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majid Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I don't see how you guys handle being threatened to be killed so lightly. A grown man threatens to shoot you, it all ends right there, no lenience. I understand being bigger or wiser but there are limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
