Did the site get hacked?

[Mastermind]

Wow!! What a mess! I dont think anyone should be treated and talked to like a child because of an opinion????

Keith, if you knew how many times we have seen this same behavior from Brad, you would understand. Tom is sick of him....and to be honest, I am too.

He makes a statement that insults a group of people. Then he says those people twist his words to make him look like a bad guy. Normally he will continue to backpedal becoming even more mired down in his statements that he winds up under the bus. After all that, he starts reporting people to the site owners and trying to get them banned, or asks them to remove his offending posts. That way, looking back thru the thread, you only see where he was attacked.

Nothing is ever his fault.

I could direct you to incident after incident.......but it would be pointless. Brad will never see that he is his own worse enemy. Putting him on ignore was the best thing I've ever done as a member of this site.

Maybe but I dont know what all u fellows have had goin on here but Randy u and Brad have helped me alot and I try and treat everyone with respect. Randy at least u r stating ur opinions without namecalling whereas some members r just being ugly and goin about it the wrong way

 

[blsnelling]

Hey Randy, what's to be my fault? Is something wrong? Did something bad happen? Oh, I simply stated my opinion about all the lewd and elementary behavior on SH, that has been so elegantly demonstrated here for us. I guess you didn't like that eh? IF THE SHOE FITS, WEAR IT!!!. It was YOU that then went and drug all your pathetic buddies over here for another round of attempted character assassination. You don't like my opinion, and then try to throw me under the bus for it? Typical you! You stand behind these guys like a coward, letting them do all your dirty work, calling Thomas1 a great and dear friend, while he does his best to destroy my reputation. You stand on the sidelines like a politician trying to make everyone think you're the nicest guy in the world, all the while, trying to tear me down. All off this because you're so insecure and desperate to maintain the image of your little business. You even manufacture lies about my work, quietly trying to undermine me. Here's the thing of it....I'm no threat to you. You admittedly have more work than you can handle. On top off that, I take very little work. Your work is good enough that I should be of no concern to you. There's room for both of us. But, every time I voice an opinion that differs from yours, you throw a hissy fit, be it public or private. One minute you're telling me I'm a great guy and a friend, and the next, stabbing me in the back. Like I've told you several times, the balls in your court. When your ready and capable of being a genuine friends...I'll be here. Until then, go hang out with your great dear friends.

I do not think he can hear you Brad ,He posted something about blocking you a while back

That's ok. Everyone else should know and most of it I've said to him personally.

And there is no way in hell I'm gonna unblock him. I'm sure he's just spouting off about how he's been wronged......or trying to make someone look bad so he will feel better about his miserable existence.

I'm done reading his poison.

Sounds like you're familiar with those behaviors.

You see Randy, there's a big difference between myself and you and your buddies. You don't see my friends in here trying to destroy you or your friends. Healthy and mature people don't behave that way.

Am I in the wrong place? I thought we were talking about chainsaws.

Jesus Christ! What are we a bunch of high school girls.

Ahh, summertime and another builders war on AS.

Priceless.

unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations

“Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
In order for a person to be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) they must meet five or more of the following symptoms:

• Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
• Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
• Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
• Requires excessive admiration
• Has a very strong sense of entitlement, e.g., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
• Is exploitative of others, e.g., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
• Lacks empathy, e.g., is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
• Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
• Regularly shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

Because personality disorders describe long-standing and enduring patterns of behavior, they are most often diagnosed in adulthood. It is uncommon for them to be diagnosed in childhood or adolescence, because a child or teen is under constant development, personality changes and maturation. However, if it is diagnosed in a child or teen, the features must have been present for at least 1 year.

Narcissistic personality disorder is more prevalent in males than females, and is thought to occur in up to 6.2 percent of the general population.

Like most personality disorders, narcissistic personality disorder typically will decrease in intensity with age, with many people experiencing few of the most extreme symptoms by the time they are in the 40s or 50s.

My $.02. An apology for calling a forum riffraffs and admitting it was offensive and inappropriate would go a long ways to shutting this down. The denial, excuses, and high browed conceit and arrogance will fuel it in perpetuity. There's nothing wrong with saying a certain place doesn't jive with you, there is something wrong with calling the posters offensive terms and then blaming them for bristling. In other words, don't piss on us and tell us it's raining.

Brad,
Who the heck do you think you are? Have you ever garnered any humility from the lessons of life? Why do you feel that it's okay to stand behind your "shield" of religious belief, and pass judgement, cast dispersions, self promote, refuse modesty, be dishonest with others as well as yourself?

It's okay to be just okay at some things. I've helped all of my kids pull loose their loose teeth, yet I don't feel compelled to promote myself as a dentist, and I'm okay with that. I wish I was better at quite a few other things, but time, money, and circumstance seem to have gotten in the way.
I am good at being a father (of 6), husband, son, friend, and a few other things, but I am not riff raff, pathetic, a misfit, troublemaker, or any of things you've cast in your net of broad sweeping generalizations.

You have my phone number, if you care to talk about this further, feel free to give me a call anytime.

The funniest thing is that I'm sure Bradley thinks I've somehow gotten all these people to rail against him.

So......in his twisted mind......it's all my fault.

All I did was say.......I don't know if this site is the best source for chainsaw related info.

After that......he started talking about how terrible the membership of another forum is.

How does he even know for sure I was referring to that forum?????

I'm gonna try to just let it go.......the guy is plainly living in a world that his actions are above the rest of us mere rif raf.

 

[griffonks]

My experience is that with selfish and self-centered people it's hopeless to try to get them to see their part.

It's all about them and that's that. It takes a major life changing issue to break through.

I feel sort of sorry for folks stuck in self. It's pretty lonely. It took recovery from alcoholism and making amends for wrongs to others to bust me out of self.

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

I gave up reading the thread .

I just wanted to learn more about riff raff, to see what everyone is carrying on about. Now I know who is behind all of this.
