I wasn't knocking your credentials btw, I was just merely offering my that I try to do as much of the work on my car by myself.

Good for you, but I'm not asking for your resume, so that doesn't really apply here.



I wasn't trying to be condescending in any light dude, I think you're reading too much into it.



Practice what you preach.

again with the sarcasim.. i wasnt giving you my resume. u made a comment about how u dont let anyone touch ur car.. implying that i may not know what im doing or something like that. instead of sayin that paul has a good rep and has done many cars and does it for a living, but I (meaning you) prefer to work on my car myself...

if you wanna go back and forth on here im fine with that. you wanna keep up the sarcasim go for it.. we can argue on here all day about it. you have met me at the columbia meet, so it should be no suprise about the way i took it...

No sarcasm again, just being honest, I don't really need to know what all you've done, I'm not the one asking. Nor was I again questioning your credentials... That's between you and him in PM's.

Right, I said I do not let anyone else touch MY car. <-- see that little guy there, the period. End of sentence, end of thought. Nothing more, nothing less. I made no hint/attempt to deny your ability to work on cars, or negate your status as a tech.

I don't know your rep, I don't know you work on audio installs (prior to this conversation) So how can I be for/against you working on someone elses car? Exactly. I wasn't. I was merely putting in that comment for face value alone. You're trying to make it into more than it was.





Ok, well if you did, you'd see that you're complaining about someone supposedly making derogatory comments about you, but then you immediately follow it up with a derogatory comment about them... So perhaps you might want to take another look at it.

Again, I never said anything against your abilities/expertise, and if you don't believe me, you might want to re-read it. So there was no comment to "let slide".



There was no sarcasm. And I have met you. And you were a pretty decent guy at that point. Which is why I have no reason to say anything against you, like I've now repeated a dozen times that I wasn't.



That's why there was no underlying tone associated with it. I simply put in my two cents. Instead of immediately feeling threatened by it, you could have simply asked me was it in reference to you, and I would have happily said no. But instead you're blowing it out of proportion.

Sure, come on down to the MD meets? Especially now that you have a Z again. But I don't really see what's going to be different face to face vs on here, there was nothing negative said either way.

My weekends are getting pretty full of school stuff sadly, but I try to attend columbia at a consistent basis. Provided it warms up there and the wind dies down..
