Right. IIRC, his defense of his actions was pretty much to say that it was the buyers' fault for not knowing that Magpul never made orange 3rd(?) generation P-Mags. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

He dyed a batch of pmags orange and put them up on the EE. Listed them as rare or something like that and never said they were dyed, leaving the impression they were originals. Right. IIRC, his defense of his actions was pretty much to say that it was the buyers' fault for not knowing that Magpul never made orange 3rd(?) generation P-Mags. Good ban. |

Funny how I've met him and we had a nice talk about several things about my truck. I guess his brain has a wireless connection to google. He is very smart and very nice if you ever get the chance to meet him you should. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

The king of googling Goodnight sweet prince I'd never seen anyone challenge his know-how about engines. I seem to recall a diesel mechanic or two impressed by his knowledge there. That was a bit of a hobby for him. I think he was a chemical engineer in the petroleum industry - probably an expert there as well. But sheesh, the guy tried to tell me what it was like to live in Uzbekistan. Really? |

I am in agreement with the minority on this one.
I'm glad that a few other could see behind the curtain. |

He's also a super cool dude and very generous with his time and talents. |

I don't understand why 2minkey was here.It's one thing to be a bit contrarian or offer a differing opinion but it was hard to tell what he actually believed in or stood for other than the need to argue in an abrasive and intentionally confrontational manner.Maybe he's a nihilist,maybe he's a small man who can't lash out at the world in person. GD is missing nothing with his absence.
Keith_J seems to be a bright guy but falls into the trap of needing to be the smartest guy in the room and could paint himself into corners. That's hardly the worst thing ever,I just sort of took him as a Texan. |

Quoted: Keith_J lacked the aptitude to mop the floor with a troll like 2minkey, that's why he stooped the way he did. He got flustered and emotional, and rather than admit a shortcoming he lashed out.

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted:Totally this. Has really hurt the site in the last few years imo. I've been lurking since 2004, and while GD has always been special, there used to be at least a little more conversation . Now it seems is nothing but monkeys throwing poop at each other. I've been here since the beginning and it's always been about throwing poop. Most people here want to find something to argue about whether it's beans in chilli, why the Israelis attacked the USS Liberty, or 9mm vs .45. Smoking is always a hot button as the addiction is serious. No. I don't think that's correct. |

Quoted: Many, many times his "encyclopedic knowledge" was put up against a genuine SME on a topic. Not once did I see him yield and admit maybe he could learn something. Instead, he'd double down, emboldened by his fan club here. What impresses me about someone's "encyclopedic knowledge" is when an conversation goes off to an unplanned esoteric subject, and a no-shit SME on that subject remarks that the other guy knows an impressive amount for not working in that field. Anything beyond that is "well, he's saying an awful lot,about something I know nothing about. I agree with him politically, so he must be right." It's that latter bit that is the basis for most who talk about his "IQ and encyclopedic knowledge."

For you guys who didn't know this 2Minkey grew up in a suburb not too far from where I grew up in Detroit.
About 15 miles away..........maybe more close to 20 miles. Amazing how I turned out so nice considering that fact!! |
