I am not tdiddy. You didn't miss me, you didn't want to refund me. As I said, you can't show any refund to my account.



but you also didn't see about 10-20 pm's that mysql and i exchanged from the morning. however, in retrospect, my fault.
Feel free to post the PMs here if that helps clarify anything. I don't think we chatted quite that much though. My inbox shows 7 messages.




I think this thread is denigrating into something quite undesirable. I really have no desire to speak ill of you, Stick. As I said before, I am just calling it as I see it. I don't take any of this personally, so you can call me names or threaten me, but in the end you can't get me upset about it. I've run social websites, and some of the largest IRC servers for years. So I've seen it all before.

I only want sigtech to stop. What's been done isn't nice, and your explanations don't make sense.

I'm done posting here.

Apparently, you have never been in a situation where someone wants something from you at all costs.
You've been lucky.

no, 7 club is much more relaxed... they dont have people who research every persons history and question them constantly about every move. Atleast if they do its because someone has committed some kind of crime or something thats actually bad.

Obviously mysql wants something more than "just sigtech to stop" because sigtech stopped after the boyfriend comment, some 30 post ago... since then its just been how wrong stick is and how right mysql is.... grow up and get back to the 20B

This thread amuses me, thanks for entertaining me guys.

But on the serious side, why don't we remember the notion of free-will, that a person can do/think whatever he/she wants. And truly Kane is correct in saying that violence is the only way to get others to do what you want them to do.

Morality at its highest level is relative, and not governed by laws, or religions, or anyone else.

In any case, this is the internet, land of child molesters and 16 yr old boys posing as grownups.

We will never really know the truth of this matter, and its not in our right. For all we know stickmantuijana could be schizophrenic, completely unaware of his alter ego that comes out to deal with his problems because he may be too passive in real life to sort them out for himself. (No offense anyone, just throwing out the hypothetical)

Thing is that I could throw 100s of what-ifs at you guys, but we will never know, so lets all just wait till next Friday when Mazsport doesn't have this thing done, then we can all be one happy family while we chew out Mazsport.

Disclaimer: I know nothing, I am just a dude giving his opinion on the internet, you are all free to think/believe what you want. But personally I am a voyuer and enjoy reading stuff like this and commenting blindly into a webpage, I also enjoy dissenting, because a peaceful world is a boring world.

i'll call on monday to get updated.

i probably won't hear from scott directly until the engine actually starts. from what mysql said, there has been progress since the last photo, but he's not willing to share with me what he saw when i asked via pm, so i don't exactly know what's been done so far.

well anyhow, just to hear that there has been progress from someone local is enough by me at this point. i'll talk to betsey on monday and let u guys know. altho it may be a painfully slow conversation if she only read this thread last friday.

Last I talked with them Stick, they were standing over your 20B working out the details on the PITA plumbing for the large injectors. It is a PITA apparently because of the placement in the engine bay. I think that was Thursday or Friday. I do know they are working pretty late these days trying to keep their commitments. I hope they keep their commitment to your project and get that thing on the road for ya.

Dude, you are so lucky that you can afford something like this. Like everyone says, it will all be worth it the first time you step on that gas pedal

yea, i know scott's been working really hard on my car, and it really sucked for everyone that all this happened.

he e-mailed me this morning under impression that i slandered him and was still quite courteous. bottomline is, he's a professional, and when i arrive, i'm sure the car will be good for the trip back home.

You did slander him. What impression did you think he should have?

You know how they say you shouldn't **** off your waiter at a restaurant until after you get your food?

So you mean to tell me that you would not be pissed off if you had to wait 14hrs for your intricate exspensive plate of food that a chef was preparing for you and every so often the waiter would simply explain to you that the chef is working on it and it shouldn't be long now?

By no way, shape or form am I saying that what is going on is appropriate what so ever.

What I am saying though, is that I don't think a lot of us would have handled this whole situation very well at all.

There is no doubt in my mind at all that Scot is very good at what he does and his products speak for themselves, but business is business and I definately think that this project shouldn't have taken this long at all.
I understand things come up and situations arise, but at the same time like I said business is business.

None of us know what was said between the two of them when this project was in the making and I don't even want to begin to speculate, just like None of us know who SIG is and I don't want to begin to speculate on that either.

What I do know is that None of us were there to here what the conversation was between Scot and Stick in the begining, just like none of us Actually saw with our own eyes who typed the crap that SIG typed.

Respectfully,

Punishr

You guys really need to understand that Scott is a person just like the rest of us.

I am pretty upset about alot of things but I let it go, I have bigger problems and I know that when the time comes it will work out. talking to him the other day on the phone I have heard him at his worst, and me being one of the rare few that seem him while he works on my car is far and few between. I have seen go thru some bad times with customers and now I know why he was having such a bad day....



This man has made great strides for the RX-8 Community and all we can do is bash him and put his masterpieces down.

Funny what if he never created any of the porducts that all most all of us have something from Mazsport.

Hell even the people that have the SC on the cars have products from him, lets give him a break, I have never met someone more dedicated and hardworking than Scott, I can personally vouch that when I am there he is busting his *** sometimes up to 18hrs days working into the night on projects and cars.


Knowledge is power and he has lots of it, he is only here to help us all.

Who are all of the people that are bashing on Scot and Mazsport........?
Please name them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have only seen one person and that was SIGTECH!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are referring to people saying that they think it is taking too long on this
20b swap as bashing on Scot or Mazsport then that is rediculous and absurd!!!!

If as you say He is putting in 18hr days and busting his *** then maybe he has too much on his plate and has had too much on his plate and that should have been portrayed to all his customers and that things might take longer than they should and he might had/is telling all customers to expect delays.
I am not saying Scot did not portray this, like I said in my previous post nobody knows except Scot and Stick what was discussed on this project as far as time frames go and the only person commenting on this time frame issue is/was Stick who has also said that Scot is doing a more than expected and excellent job on his car but it was just taking a long time.

And I have to say I agree with the fact that it seems like it is taking a long time based on the info provided here in this thread.................

it's quite frustrating to know whenever i step away from the computer for a few hrs, general consensus of sigtech's id automatically merges into my own. the problem is i do care what you guys think of me, albeit more than i should especially for an internet forum. i'm doing everything i can to exonerate myself, and i'll be trying until that happens.

please just wait for the updates. if i were scott, i wouldn't work on my car either in this situation.
