RC Bashers

Lets try this. We all have several things that have gotten under our skin throughout the years. I have several but will only bring one up at a time. Lets not use any names so we don't get into any legal issues. I'll start with this one. There is another online forum where a fellow was real excited to finally get his tube chassis. He had waited a long time for it. As alot of us do, he put some parts on it just to mock it up and get an idea of what it was going to look like. He took a pic and posted it. There is one gentleman who responds to almost every thread on there. I don't know if it's a control thing or a post count thing. At any rate he comes back with that he doesn't see any axle tube braces and says you're going to break tubes without them. You just want to grab him and remind him "Hey Professor this is clearly a mockup and is a work in progress". If he would have cooled his jets he would have seen in the end they would have been installed. I mean WTH! Who's next?

Buyers who pm you with what they will give you for something your selling, they usually say I will give you this amount and you provide tracking as well so on....

buyers that clearly do not read the info correctly then rant an rave that its not what they've purchased then want to slam you,post negative feedback and then have the nerve to ask for either a refund,partial refund,open a pay pal dispute, or what are you going to do to make this transaction correct...........ughhh!!

I just hate people who act all buddy buddy till you can no longer provide them with what they want or need from you and then drop off the face of the earth till they need or want something from you. Then all of a sudden they are your bestest friend and the cycle continues. I am getting to a piont in my life I no longer want to be around people like this.

AMEN BROTHER!! i know what ya mean.

I hate when I get people that treat me like a liar and thief before they even know me just because I sell cars. I get flipped off on the lot, cussed out, yelled at, you name it. I'm just doin my job. If you go to any store, chances are someone is going to ask if you need help. Why do they think a car lot is any different? Or when someone says they're going to do something and they don't. Or when the ole lady plans my day off for me. Man I could go on forever.

Well my now ex dad is a used car salesman so I could tell you many reasons why you guys get a bad name lol, any of the stories you probaly have heard that car salesmen do he has done it or more and not anything good like taking his sons id info and going to dmv saying he is me and using said id with his picture but my info and racking up utility bills in another state and leaving them to hound me for the money($800)

Knew this would be added, people pretending to be your best buddy only to see how much they can take from you

I had a new, still sealed AX10 that I advertised on Craigslist for $200. I had a guy locally respond and say he could buy one online for $210. Would I take less? I'm like "HUH". I'm already less! Not to mention if he bought one online he'd have to pay shipping and wait a week. Evidently he learned a different math than I did. Local RC'ers around here don't have both oars in the water!

People that talk up thier cars/trucks when they don't know what they're talking about.
One good example is this renter who was over paying the rent to his landlord (who is a man I do work for). The renter pulls up in an early '90s F150 with mags & a fairly loud dual exhaust system. As he's paying the rent, the landlord compliments the renter on his truck. The guy starts talking about all the work he's put into it- & I see a pretty well stock truck w/ nice wheels & loud pipes. So he starts going on about the "Boss 302" he built for the truck, how hopped up it is, how much money he has in it, etc. Well, being the gearhead that I am, I just gotta see this supposed "Boss" motor. Guy pops the hood & there sits a bone stock 302 with the factory fuel injection. I start laughing & the guy asks whats funny. I said "ah, nothing. I just like how your high dollar hot rod motor is a bone stock small block Ford with EFI".

Guy gets all bent outta shape & says he's been a car guy since before I was born & that I sure didn't know what the heck I was talking about. So I start rattling off the specs on genuine Boss 302s- like they were 302 blocks w/ 351C heads, carburated, they were only made for a couple years, factory EFI wouldn't work on one, etc. Guy gets huffy & gets in the truck & leaves. Dumba$$.

there's alot of em out there scale, they're mostly on youtube.

I hate when self-proclaimed professionals try to look down upon you and criminalize you just because you don't use their favorite brand of product. Seriously, you may think that what you have is all-supreme, but there's alot more to it than that! The world isn't as simple as better or worse, that's why everything falls down to preferences or OPINIONS!
