PINNACLE SITUATION

Good point. 2 ghosts is kind of a joke. IMO, somebody shouldn't be allowed to come on as a first time poster (ghoster) and make allegations against an established book like Pinny. JMHO.[/QUOTE]

YES they should.

Deleting or editing a post is the worst thing to do.

If it's bs, let the thread live on, it WILL come out.

Anything is possible with a first time poster who could be anyone. Is this a legitimate problem, maybe. Is this some feeble attempt for attention, maybe. Most likely Pinnacle will do the right thing (if this is for real) and the issue will blow over.

week,

all I am saying is when I first came to the RX is was due to a slow pay...

at the time I had never looked for a place like RX...

My claim was LEGIT...

But I also only had 1 Post....Reason Being I had never looked for a Chatroom till I had been stiffed...

In my case However I waited 3 weeks before posting anything & when I did I posted all the facts in detail without Bias...

Newbies must be responsible...this guy has not chosen a proper path, nor has he given Pinny enough time before going to Public threads...

just like the idiot the other day complaining about his 290$...

I agree with Malibu. Consider his post seconded.

Pinnacle don't need us peons coming to their aid. They are a 800 pound gorilla,and they can take care of themselves.

Malibu · Jun 25, 2004

Good points SS

Jack- c'mon, you are sounding like teenage girl.

You make intelligent points. I can live with your perspective. However, I just think that books like Pinny, etc. that are the elite shouldn't have to deal with slander, and too many times these ghosts are slanderous. Are you right to say that censorship is wrong? 1000% you are right. I just think that there has got to be some way to protect these guys from the vast majority of first time posters like this guy that ARE full of shit. This guy may have a legitimate complaint, but you know as well as I do that 90% of first time posters with issues like this are merely stirring up the soup with some kind of agenda. Am I wrong here?

Good point Savant. And your analogy is a great one. Thanks to your dispute, this site has a valuable poster like yourself. I am not saying that first timers should be censored, but when they come on, and then won't even disclose what their issue is, they look like they are hiding something, and that irks me. Quality posters like you is what we need more of, not guys who want to stir shit up with an agenda like the jjgolds, etc, etc.

One more time Jack: "What is the timeframe on this event?"

Wil- if you have to edit, at least give a reason.

wilheim · Jun 25, 2004

I just change the word in the topic title from problem to situation. The body of the post is untouched.

wil.

WEEKENDALKI · Jun 25, 2004

makes sense.

NICKYTHEFISH · Jun 25, 2004

Anytime someone brings up Pin in any frame of reference other than "they are the best shop out there" you guys act like somebody just called your mother names.I like Pin as much as the next guy but to start calling him ghost or threatening to move the thread is stupid.I agree he should have waited till he can post all details but just relax.

SportSavant · Jun 25, 2004

nicky,

if you had a business...& someone came on an open forum & made inflamatory remarks would that not upset you...

perhaps these types of remarks would have no effect on a book like Pinny...however a smaller book could be severly affected by a huge run on the bank due to a false rumour or jokestar...so I disagree...It is a serious matter & people need to be more responsible before crying cauz they are owed a few pennies & are not paid instantly....

or before management has even rendered a decision...

What if Pinny honours this 'supposed' bet....Then what would have been the f ucking point of this entire thread?

NICKYTHEFISH · Jun 25, 2004

Don't give me that shit I can recall numerous times on this board when people started a thread just like this and didn't post detail right away and it stayed up and nobody knocked the poster for doing so.

SportSavant · Jun 25, 2004

I agree with you 1000%....

there is favortism for advertised books...no question...you are right

my only point is that what this poster did tonite is wrong & immature & unfair to any business wether they are an RX advertisor or not.

Apparently Managment has told this guy they will render a decision tomorrow...so why post & stir up shit...

Is there Politics being played at the RX in relation to BOOKS...of course Nicky, I agree with that, we are talking about two seperate things I guess

SportSavant · Jun 25, 2004

A perfect example of this would be that if this thread was say about SIA...

the title would have never been moderated from Problem to Situation...

Although...

on the Flip Side...

Pinnacle has EARNED WAY WAY more respect than SIA I guess so it could be an apples & oranges argument...

NICKYTHEFISH · Jun 25, 2004

Agreed he should have waited.But I just found it funny how everybody came screaming to the rescue of Pin and just because they were the book in question he was bashed.
