There have been a couple of instances where I've seen someone join, post about how their guitar/amp is such a disappointment, and then disappear and not visit again. It wasn't a case of any member giving them a hard time, they just signed up, bitched, then left .... didn't even wait around to troll. Curious.Agreed.
As I said in my OP, if you're new here and you only signed-up to gather a virtual mob to try and get your SE upgraded to a core model for all your pain and suffering, don't expect a warm welcome.
If the shoe fits...

I just remember him saying “squirt” some. Then, someone shut him down because, apparently, it means something derogatory.
Well, as an occasional visitor I haven’t seen anything that would warrant posting such a tirade, and if I was a new visitor I think it would put me off posting (which I know would appeal greatly to a number of people on here who view this site as their own personal social club).
And by the way, if you think this thread started with a tirade, you clearly haven't met Hans. One time, at Experience, I said, "Hey, man, how's it going?" and he nailed my head to a workbench.
do you want your Nickleback?And for what it's worth, I tried to start some conversation around coin collecting. I started a thread plugging nickels, but it wasn't worth anything.

I was there. Saw the whole thing. Why do you all think I'm so intimidated by Hans?And by the way, if you think this thread started with a tirade, you clearly haven't met Hans. One time, at Experience, I said, "Hey, man, how's it going?" and he nailed my head to a workbench.

I don't have an issue w/someone reaching out here first - it may be a simple fix, the dealer may be closed, it may be a weekend and the company is closed, whatever. A simple "hey, this is what's happening, what should I do?" isn't a problem. It's the posts that come in ranting, "I just ordered a PRS that was shipped from Maryland to my dealer in California, then to me in Maine, and the finish isn't as shiny as it looked online, how can a 'premium' brand like PRS allow something like this to happen" that are going to get met with less than friendly responses.

I'm a pretender. And not the cool Chrissie Hynde kind.
Someone got up in his grill about it being used towards the mentality challenged, or something like that.Nah, it just means “When you wanna say something, but really shouldn’t”.
It used to be in the PRS Lexicon Thread, but I guess it’s gone? I just tried to link to it but, it says the thread isn’t found.
Good thing, because if you’re not a drummer, those kind tend not to last.
