This thread started out regarding a new administrator, what has John(the well loved miscreant John) got to do with this topic.

Now I don't mind going off topic a wee bit here and there (have been more than guilty on the odd occasion)but this is ridiculous.

I am sorry that I ever mentioned John in my post. I had no desire for such attacks to follow. I feel that I may have started something unintentionally that has turned into a personal attack on John. For this I am sorry. Let us please drop this topic. My apologies to all.

Ah Troy, did my buddy Rich send you over here to do his dirty work undercover? Not surprising I said it to his face and I will say it here Rich Krom is a coward and a bully and he proves it every day.

Now to answer the question at hand. Unlike FE, this board requires me to remember to check it and I have just not done so. I have been overseas to England and am about to go to Austin TX.

I PAID for my Gettysburgh and am glad I did.

In the past I have done work for Code 3 and for that me and my associates were given a free model. Fairfax, Hamilton Hagerstown as I recall. We want good models we should be willing to do the work. I will help any one and have offered my services to TWH and FRR as well.

I have done no work for TWH or anyone else. After the first batch of strykers came out and OHare was canceled, I gave Larry Lorrance pics of the Dulles Stryker but was told that it could not be done because it was all steer and the mold wasn't, until of course it was. You would think that with TWH doing Leesburg Va, Somerville MA, and 2 from DC that my had was in there as I have connections to all of those but alas it is not true.

The key here is that I don't own a board and I don't ban people or delete posts by people for saying negative things about the people who are feeding me free models. I have also said negative things about C3 and positive things about TWH so I speak my mind.

As for my being banned from FE, that is true. Rich Krom did the honors when I challenged him on whether or not C3 had an exclusion with FDNY and whether that relationship was soon to expire. Rich said he wasn't going through this again and banned me. His board, so he can be arbitrary all he wants. Of course, he never asked my source which would have solved that problem. Remember what I said about Krom being a coward and a bully?

I think what John Antonelli was implying (I'm not trying to put words into anyone's mouth), but an endorsed Board or a Board where there is a corporate link tends to sway the discussions. No negativity can be discussed relative to said companies or it's deleted. Only praise and glory. It makes for a biased--useless Board.

John A has paraphrased my words exactly right

Seems to me that the direction of this thread is heading towards FE.net. Why not continue the discussion over there? I got a free model from Corgi via FE.net for some work I did for them. There, I said it!!!

My GOD, what a liberating feeling to come clean after all these years!!!

ALOT OF YOU NEED TO GROW UP AND GET OUT OF THE SAND BOX.....ENOUGH !!!!!
