Hopefully jweitson sees this, and realizes who is influencing him. The moral is, run your own rips! If its a guaranteed sellout, let it fly, no matter why attention "PEOPLE" say.

Why the firing squad here? I could see if someone had made a trade or made a purchase that if the package got lost, either a replacement or a refund would be warranted. This was a prize in a contest. If it didn't arrive, it didn't arrive. I've dealt with Bill and he's a standup guy. I'm not sure why he's getting the third degree about a free prize he sent someone that didn't arrive.
Also, I've had a few transactions on the board recently...purchases, trades and giveaways. I never use DC when I ship out low-value items here....especially giveaways.
Lastly, why is any of this anyone's business other than Bill & Jeff?
Only firing squad I see is from the first few sentences aimed at me at the beginning of this thread.
Instead of responding to a moron and As far as dipsh**s package
All this over a spoof of a thank you thread started by you Craig. I've already explained that it was a joke (guess not a good one) and as far as the package not arriving it's no big deal. Would kinda be fun to know what was sent and in my opinion it has become everyone's business once Bill started this thread on this board in trying to make me look like the bad guy.
I already stated in another thread before this fiasco that the package didn't arrive HERE.
I've been calm. Not calling out anyone or calling someone names but I don't like being accused of being classless over a free item. I have done nothing wrong other then starting a spoof thread that Bill clearly didn't get.
I also did not forget about the contest as Bill says in his OP. Our PM's had been nothing but nice and when he thought the package was lost he PM'd on Nov 12th that if it didn't arrive by that Saturday to contact him and that he apologized and didn't want to look like a deadbeat to a respected member of this forum. Saturday Nov 15th came and nothing showed up so as per his instructions I PM'd telling him nothing arrived and never received any further responses. Also nothing was ever mentioned about sending something else if the first one didn't arrive.
And once again no big deal. No intent on my part to make anyone look bad. I won a contest fairly where the results have completely gotten out of control and don't know what more I can say.
Jeff, just to be clear, I was not directing my response toward you. It was directed toward the 3rd parties who are getting involved by asking questions they know to be unnecessary. For example, see the question I quoted in my previous response.
Honestly, when I saw your thread, I was a bit confused. I couldn't tell if you were joking or if you were upset. I erred on the side of caution and assumed you were joking because I know you're a good guy and don't seem to be the type of person who would post something like that. However, in Bill's defense, I will say that if I was having a problem with the post office and packages were randomly disappearing, I'd get pretty frustrated. That frustration could have very easily spilled over here when he saw your thread. What may be viewed as a spoof by some could very easily be read as a bash by others.
No harm no foul...I just think others who don't have a dog in this hunt should stop parroting questions that others have already asked.
I thought Jeff's spoof thread was a joke, so I made my standard crack about Bill's Karate stance. Now it's all drama all the time, especially when certain posters get involved. Jeff and Bill will sort it out (or not) and if they want to make it public, that's their business. I've dealt with Bill many times and never had an issue, and Jeff seems to be a genuine nice guy, as is Bill.
As I had stated a smilie should have been placed in my spoof thread but even then it probably wouldn't have mattered. I just don't see how what I posted there deserved all the name calling and trying to make me look bad because my thread certainly wasn't done to make Bill look bad.
"Lastly, why is any of this anyone's business other than Bill & Jeff?"
I think when you make topics on public discussion forums, you are inviting....well, public discussion.

Lastly, why is any of this anyone's business other than Bill & Jeff?
Craig it became every ones business when Bill created this thread.
Surely you agree this is a public forum, if Bill did not want this discussed I'm sure he wouldn't have called Jeff a cheater and a moron among other things.
I went on a Taco Bell frenzy for a couple weeks in November. Which of course means I've been on a 2 hour/day workout and 800 calorie/day frenzy in December. Stinks. I'd head for the border right now if I thought my fiance wouldn't kill me!!
Now that this thread is officially the Taco Bell thread, living here in Grand Blanc, MI for the last 7 years, we have been waiting and waiting for a Taco Bell. Finally we will have one in the spring!!
As a lifelong Texan who consumed Tex-Mex food practically daily, when I went to Notre Dame for college, my entire system was disrupted by the lack of Tex-Mex food in Northern Indiana. Thank goodness for Taco Bell! They had one close to campus. Kind of a sad state of affairs when that was the best Mexican food around. Sometime during Freshman year though, I discovered Chicago style pizza, and the rest is history!!
Forum etiquette strictly forbids taking any break from the forums unless first creating a separate thread announcing the break and detailing the grievances for the break.
Acceptable grievances are: 1. We live in America not (Nazi Germany, Soviet Union, etc.) and my freedom of speech has been violated. c.f. U.S. Constitution, Amendemet 1. 2. A particular forum member was mean to me and I am unable to deal with the emotional trauma caused by people not being nice to me at all times. 3. Everyone on the forum is a jerk. Note: this is an expanded version of reason 2, usually following a lenghty thread where another forum member expressed agreement with the forum member who was mean to the aggrieved party. 4. You have discovered that CDsNuts is in fact, nuts.
Note: Any thread started to announce the said break from the forum must contain one or more posts from established forum members (no obvious shill accounts), stating that the original poster is a valuable member of the forum, and begging him/her not to leave. Example: I have no idea who you are, but please don't leave. You are an invaluable member of this forum. If one or more of these posts do not occur within the first 20 posts, the original thread shall be declared invalid. However, the original poster does not forfeit the right to start another thread announcing the break based on the same grievance.
Also, keep in mind that the length of the break has no bearing on adherence to the rules. Even short breaks of several seconds to several hours must follow the above guidelines.
