I've always been amazed at how available Brent is on this forum to provide responses, items of interest, build logs, etc - and manage to run a business and have time for a family. I don't see any others able to make themselves that available. Anyone seen or heard from David Kee in the last few years (decade)? Not sure if he is on a milk carton or not.

What's really funny is that I wouldn't even dream of putting anywhere near the time I put in on this hobby-forum towards any of my work-related forums. That would be work, not a hobby. It's really amazing that we get the free advice that we do from the pros on this board.

I ued to get along with Brent until he started throwing a tis fit lately, about people asking the sames questions all the time, even if if they wern't the same people. He and some others expect everyone,.....to use the search box all the time, and yes, we can all, find what we are looking for using a search tool, but alot of us use both, and there is nothing, wrong with that !

If anyone, get's tired of the same question being asked and answered, DON'T REPLY !
Simple ! Go to some other thread....

Brent, you can call me and oth3rs what you want, like "drama much", but we can call you the same, as you're the one that started this ! Not me....Go back and read !

And yes, you and a few others that have benn here for ages, think that you can say anything,....you want, and you and these few others have turned people away because of it.
You few members need to get off your high horse and climb down and be realistic with the rest of us. I and many, many others have done nothing wrong with asking the same questions over and over.

So yes, you have a bad attitude. You disrespect people all the time, like me with this thread, asking my question, that you felt you had to throw your well known weight around by getting on my back. Well, I don't care. I'm sure people that read all what you've written will turn themselves away from you as a person and engine builder.

Everything would be just fine, if you,.....didn't start this issue on my,.....thread.

Now, if this issue was on your,...thread, fine, tell people what you want by not asking the same question over and over.

So, why did you, have to start this problem ?

Nobody else was complaigning.....

Oh yeah, there's also nothing,....wrong with tire kicking by asking other engine builders the same questions, or creating the same questions on other website forums. Most people will agree, that we all window shop, by getting the best we can on the same or similure products.

Here you go Brent, quoted from the dictionary. Meaning of a website forum.

"An Internet forum, or message board, is an online "discussion" site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived"

And like I asked, why did you,....have to start this issue ?

This is a public forum. It's not *your* thread, it's not *my* thread. When you post something publicly, it belongs to everyone.

For crying out loud dude, man up, and quit being a whiny girl about things. This isn't Oprah.

Why did I start "this issue"? Because this is the 11th thread you've started in the past month's time, all with the same general subject.

You also went through this same process this time last year, where you linked us all to different Ebay auctions, and asked the exact same questions.

You are not ready to buy, so linking us to individual engines for sale and asking copious amounts of questions about them is a waste of time for everyone involved. Considering that you tend to not listen to any advice that's given to you only exacerbates things.

Let's get something else clear: I haven't ran anyone off because of a "bad attitude" and you certainly didn't have any issue talking to me or with my reputation when I was answering your questions....

Trust me, my business won't slow down because your 15th post on which engine to buy finally got on my nerves and I decided to say something. But if people see me as a grouchy ole Gus, then so be it.
