Anyone who knows Terry knows that he's full of poo and likes to stir the pot. It's just part of his ironic personality and fits well with his a**hole facade.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
EDIT: Adam, I just peed my pants thanks to your latest post.

Well at least Terry was willing to give it a wipe and change the rubber.
or the Goldman Sachs method. Highly recommend buying while your selling. They all are on about the same ethical playing field.
Yeah that could work as well. He could get his buddies, and some fake MAACA accounts, and put all over the post "he's real stand up guy", "great price", "If I were closer I would be on this", etc etc etc..
I figure you're looking for a reaction, so here it is - since this is going over the line. (I don't think it can be disputed)
Your on the legal edge. Its straight out slander. Yes, I buy low and sell at book price - unless it has something special to it, but the other stuff dictionary stuff is law suit material.
I have always offered my items to Maaca membership ahead of Kijiji or Craigslist... never said you had to buy it, never said you'd like the price... just figured I should offer the machines to you guys first - before I sell to someone else at my selling price (which I always do, so the prices are not unreasonable - and again they are typically book prices).
Due to the nature of the urban post text, it can obviously be associated with me (based on past posted bashing), so Whomever posted this is obviously from this board, , has a dislike for me, has access or common knowledge of these sites, and in my experience is usually closely associated with person bringing information like this to public knowledge.... so they can enjoy the reaction... (helps narrow it down...).
What I would ask is for whomever posted the slanderous material, please remove it. It is uncalled for, immature and bordering on illegal. Sure associate me with making a profit, call me on buying machines at the sellers price even though I know I can resell it for more. That I do not refute.
Finally, I lived in Toronto during University and met "GAY" people - some it was obvious, some not so much, many I had no idea until they came out. But the one thing they all had in common in speaking to them afterwards was being afraid that someone would find out about their lifestyle before they were ready to share. I am not gay, but I'll tell you I have no problem with gay people (I consider many my friends!) I also do not care one bit what they or ANYONE else does in their bedroom. I think that joking about someone being outed (and obviously to cause damage) is totally inappropriate for a board like this. The entire thing is in very poor taste, and not something that should be joked about. It is a slap in the face to may people who (not by choice, but by genetics) have to live in a society where they are made the brunt of jokes. I though we were beyond this... guess not, sorry "Gays".... There's at least one more hater out there!
I think you get my point.
A joke is a joke, but when you do it to harm, or use a group of easily persecuted people as your canvas, That's just not cool.
a. A false publication, as in writing, print, signs, or pictures, that damages a person's reputation. b. The act of presenting such material to the public.
I think the term you want is libel. Now, not being a lawyer, and I am surprised there isn't one around here ... is the onus on the plaintiff or defendant to prove/disprove such allegations?
I am not bothered by the poor "gay/trans" humor, but rather the slanderous remarks. I just think using a group of identifiable people, who have their own societal issues, to make a joke Is in poor taste and should be permitted on this or any board. I'll leave it to the board operator to decide since I have no control.
Is it an atom? No, it's multiball! Complete MAACA-Wacko!

Not all trannies are gay. And, I like the feeling of silk panties against my skin...
I seem to remember a previous discussion about encountereing trannies. So, no problem I for one am cool with whatever you are into. To each his own, dude.
If I was called Trannie lover I`d expect a google search to throw up a connection.
tglover t-girl page is search find number one..try it..
I love tgirls dearly - I know a few. Some love pinball. Thats not a joke.
I did NOT make the urban link but find it very funny..and funny at you YOUR EXPENSE.
Lets talk about Expense....
Like how you tried to make 1500 bucks EXTRA on a sale at MY EXPENSE and ADMITTED you tried to gouge me like a shady double glazing salesman standing at an 80 year old ladies door smelling her heirlooms in the background just waiting to pay your price. All PERFECTLY legal, but all a very very shady way of conducting ones self on a community based forum.
... Now, not being a lawyer, and I am surprised there isn't one around here ... is the onus on the plaintiff or defendant to prove/disprove such allegations?
There are 2 lawyers on MAACA, but they don't advertise due to the fact that this is a website about a hobby called pinball, and it is pretty much the last place they would expect to intervene.
It's very simple guys... a forum is like a big room full of people at a party. When some people piss you off at a party, you leave. I don't give a rat's a** who it is, but if any of you are unhappy, click on the big red X on the top right corner of your screen. It's as simple as that.
For f***'s sake, you guys take this WAY too seriously.

This paragraph is the point that I think Tglover is missing, which leads to this…

Tglover can’t expect the best of both worlds. If he’s going to continue to conduct himself as he has in the past he can’t expect to be treated like everyone else at the “party”, because that is not what we as collectors/hobbiests do. We generally are a courteous bunch that looks out for one another, or at least I would like to think so, and I think we do a good job of policing ourselves. When we see BS, we call it BS. (or in this case, when we see a “Tglover”, well you get the idea)
If Terrence has an issue with the way he’s being treated, maybe it’s time he looked in the mirror and did something about it? It’s not like its just one person here that seems to have issue with his actions, so can that many people be wrong about him?

Oh my bad... I did not even click on the first link until now Now I understand
Your absolutely right. If I am selling something at a greatly exagerated price, I will not give Maaca members a look-see first or at all. I will just post it elsewhere so others will have the oppertunity to pick it up.
I should have never given Maaca members the oppertunity at an exagerated price - and for that I appologize. So as per your advice, if I have something I think is special and deserves a premium, I will no longer offer it to Maaca members on this board.
I think this should resolve your concern about my conduct in selling. Here's to moving on.

Man.. they really tglovered her into that one, eh?
Not really, the dealership didn't sell the car from under her to someone else for more money, nor did they replace parts on it after it had been sold...
How the hell can a person on disability buy a $41,000 car in the first place?? (let alone $66,000)
Man.. they really tglovered her into that one, eh?

I don't even know if there is a point in responding, it's amazing how you can just keep missing the point even though it's staring you in the face time and time again.
Just because you don't do it to MAACA members doesn't mean that we are going to be accepting of you doing it anywhere else either. Don't you get it? Do I really need to spell it out for you?? Most people don't agree with the ethics of your business practices and as a result call you on your BS time and time again. It doesn't matter if you only post on Kijii or craigslist with your BS, if you continue to post on MAACA and continue with your current business practices we are going to continue to call you on it.
If you don't like it, then I'm sorry obviously you are in the wrong place aren't you?

OOOOORRRRRRRRR... you could sell your mess for what it's actually worth rather than trying to take some unsuspecting soul to the cleaners.

Hmmm... sounds like you are talking from experience... do tell? Enquiring minds want to know!
