Quote:Alright Mike, since I really feel that your huge post was completely directed at me, I\'m going to say my peace. I\'m tired of being cool with you and the next minute, I\'m being bashed indirectly, or in this case, directly by yourself. You need to lose the big head buddy. My $70-120 hockey masks were fun to make. I realized that people have favorites no matter what, and I\'m cool with that. Regardless, I had fun doing them... keeping them a hobby and not a business. You\'ve told me many times that you are getting very tired of making them, and tired of taking orders... so why make such a fuss? Just in case you are one of the last people to know... I don\'t deal in making masks anymore, unless they would be for myself. Its like your holding onto hockey mask making as being some divine right and you\'re trying to pick at me  (as if I still make them and care to take insults from a big-headed, antagonistic fellow maker to heart and feel singled out and broken hearted :wacko: ). Since arrogance is quite rampant here right now, I\'d go as far to say that I progressed pretty damn quick. I\'m excited to make myself a nice accurate little set, But I\'ve never claimed to have \'no competition\' and say \'I am one of the best\'. And if you\'re making hockey masks in a way to make money, and considering other makers as potential \'competition\' rather than a fellow friend, then good luck with life... My advice would be: if you\'re wanting to make money, get a real job.

While NO ONE has ever been truly 100% accurate, there are some people that come VERY VERY close. Sure you make really detailed, nice masks and all... Everyone knows that, but the arrogance? Why? And the bad attitude? Why is that? Are you insecure about things? It sure doesn\'t help your image as a person.

Contrary to popular belief, I don\'t constantly hate you. I don\'t talk about you in chatrooms. I don\'t bad mouth you. I already talked to you privately about that, and I thought we understood each other... BUT since you want to bring this to a public forum, then I will also. You know we straightened shit up and by my saying, \'what you\'re saying is egotistical\' doesn\'t mean I\'m badmouthing/hating you. And if you truly weren\'t egotistical and didn\'t have a superiority complex... You wouldn\'t get so uptight and pissed about things.  Don\'t forget... back in the day, I wasn\'t the only one talking bad :wink:  IF you remember, you had it out for myself and Cory from the start because we were doing the same thing you were.. and you didn\'t like that. If you weren\'t a favorite around here, you would be banned for the constant struggle you provoke or cause. And after all thats done, you act like you haven\'t done a thing wrong. I\'ve been quite the problem causer when I joined.. but I matured to not doing that anymore. However you have been here a lot longer than I, and seem to act like a 15 year old with situations you can\'t deal with and brush off.  I\'ve tried to patch up things that would happen, so that we can both be professional to each other... But I turn around, and you\'re either going off of what some child has told you about me \'badmouthing\' you, or you\'re acting like things are still in the shitpile. I don\'t have a problem or complex with you. I don\'t pick at you like I did before, yet you still do, regardless of when you say, \'yea I\'m cool with you\'. Its as if I\'m dealing with a kid in junior high...

But thats all old hat.    I don\'t hold grudges, but as I see, you do. I don\'t have time to worry about others and keep a bad attitude toward them. There are more important things to worry about in life. Apparently you can\'t function on a decent, mature level with me, so, if you can handle it, don\'t mention or acknowledge me in any future posts. And I would appreciate it if you read my post in its entirity and think on it. And when you do, and if you do decide to comment, do not take what I\'ve said out of context.  If you can\'t take the heat, get out of the kitchen. This is the last post I\'ve deemed worthy to say or reply to you (for the good of us both). I\'m done with the childish drama. So, good luck in your future ventures and I wish you the best.

And I apologize for being so off the topic of the Part 3/7 blanks; won\'t happen again. :wink:
