I like having an alias.... it protects you from people trying to screw with your real life.... I have taken the time to share parts of my real life with people from this forum... only to be open to ridicule, and my life made to be a mockery... if I had my choice to do it all over again... I would stay anonymous ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

I have mixed feelings, I think if we could not hide behind an alias we
would probably be more civil. It's somewhat like a small town. You don't drive by your fellow citizens in a small town and flip them the bird. Why not? because everyone knows everyone and people talk about other people and you can't hide. You want to have a reasonably good reputation. Now on the other hand In a bigger city , a person cuts you off on the highway and you flip him off and not think twice sometimes. Same here people think, I can say what I want , He doesn't know me from Adam. So screw Him . If we all had REAL names and REAL faces. . I think we may be less aggressively hostile. Your point is taken thou on the Safety issue Steamer. Their are a lot of unstable people out there and who knows. like I said mixed feelings.....??? |

But at least anonymous you can't get hurt...... My telephone number is on my website... my address...if you have a falling out around here... you might take two bullets in the back of the head.. yes I know that sounds ridiculous but you never know.. a guy like wad lo could be a killer... or I could be... someone could end up dead ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

I've always been completely open about my name and all personal information on all boards. I have nothing to hide. I wish more felt the same way. I've never met a nicer bunch than the fellow CCers I've met and talked to in this industry. Take care, Lisa |

Except Ken! LOL! I trust people unless they give me a reason not to trust them. I think you are exaggerating Steamey, nobody on these BB's is going to kill anyone. They are all good, hardworking people...even Ralph / suction! (;-) Sorry Ralph!) I have talked to most of the people on this board either in person, via phone or email. I would trust all of you in my home. I would trust everyone here (with one exception) with my bank account. Now be nice!!!!!!!! Take care, Lisa |

Steamer, If you truly believed there is a real risk,
why continue calling names and slandering peoples character on this site. If we act civil we don't have to wonder about any loony wanting to come to our houses . |

I did warn him Dan... just leave me alone... but he refused... so yes its childish... yes I look foolish... but I don't care... right is right. you can make a very good living subbing... better than most owner operators.... I find the sears bitch title offensive... I find them putting down my REAL BUSINESS offensive... thats the market here in the GTA Waldo takes free jabs at me... but I know nothing about him... except the weed thing...lol ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

Nothing wrong with working "wholesale" instead of retail, if you don't mind work. I know several high end CC operations which worked that way for decades working for large regional department stores.
The ones harping on the guy who runs "Mr Steemer" haven't been in his shoes.
(I do wish everyone would use real names, and be civil) Thanks, Lee |

This forum was quite vicious at first. I had to say and wanted to say certain things in my own defense that some people I was associated with did not appreciate me saying. Thus I am Lilniteridrhood. |

I always TRUST people quicker if their info is real and not an alias.
I put my name out there and take hits and give them, but at least you KNOW who you are dealing with. ------------- Converting HWE customer to VLM customers for 30 Years! |
