I'm making sure the new patch works correctly before I send it to everyone.

There's a right way and a wrong way to express your troubles and concern on a public forum.

Being loud, obnoxious, rude, and just an all around dink... makes you look just like that.

Was I loud and obnoxious when AIRAID's intake ran like crap on my car? No. How about when they denied the problem existed and tried to blame it on other vendors? Still no. Instead I was cordial and even proactive in trying to find a community resolution. I could have easily started an "AIRAID SUCKS" thread or post. But I didn't. Hell, I was even fair to them in my review of their product compared against the aFe.

Shit happens...beyond you or @Visconti's control. He has the responsibility of taking the heat and answering to customers. I can personally attest to John's dedication to his customers. I've seen it with my own two eyes, in person. Hell, I took him to the post office to mail out some cables while we were working on my tune. I'd bet you any amount of money that there are more people happy with his tune and service than people demanding refunds.

Take a step back, think about the message you're trying to say as well as the message you're ACTUALLY saying. Realize that John doesn't make the cables. He's not sitting on a pile of 100 cables and withholding them from his customers. He's at the mercy of supply and demand. Right now, there is a lot more demand than supply.

@Visconti, don't let it frustrate you. Some people just can't see past the tip of their nose sometimes.

There is a vendor review forum.

While not refunding money for a product someone hasn't even received yet seems spiteful at best, and honestly would keep me from buying from a vendor, there is a place for this crap and a way to carry yourself, even on the Internet.

Gmhooker, on most forums you probably would have been banned by this point, and it may happen on here, I would at least expect your posts to be deleted.

I dont see a reason to delete anything.

If he starts posting more nonsense then I will put in a request.

But I have nothing to hide from the community or my customers.

It is what it is.

I'm 51 years old and so I'm old school to many of y'all on this forum.
I just left visiting my frat brother (51)whose dying from ALS, had this for 5 years and may not make it till his daughters next birthday in May, and I just lost a frat brother to a stroke (51) who was healthy as the day is long. Stuff happens, not just to you but the whole world. gmookher, It will work out, it always does, think future, think big picture, control what you can control and let the rest go, I've looked down the barrel of a gun twice and survived, you'll survive this..

I said lets Stop the all my children Sh** and lets get back to the car stuff and got my post deleted by the moderators and caught an infraction but this gmooker dude can use foul language, call people names and use obscenities and his posts are untouched. While i dont care i just found that a little weird..

I can understand wanting your money back if you don't want his flashes and already have the cable, it's not like you are going to want his updates or anything in the future. If it was me i would issue the refund and dissolve the relationship i think that's the only fair way to do it.

Just curious, how were you able to get on the group buy after the fact?

Swear to God. Im in my head im like okay my bad they are cleaning the thread up and i understand. i go back and his stuff is still there. They considered it disrespectful and insulting but i didnt even direct it to anyone i was just telling people to cut the drama and keep this thread about the car stuff. Someone mentioned it early there is a vendor review thread and thats where stuff like this should be voiced. NOT HERE!
