Re: Trashed thread- Not worth reading
The thing is, there would be NO problem if Senkat would just refrain from throwing his outlandish opinion in every place that it does not belong. Muledeer has a point, esecially siince he seems to have tried to bring Senkat some business. The fact that this escalates the problem just goes to tell that Senkat again has no self-control when it cones to his horrible atttude.
This is for those who think there is nothing wrong with what Senkat does.. Fact is, his personal opinion of me had NO place in this thread, if anyone can tell me why it belonged here, I am all ears. This is also for those who assume I am completely wrong here. I am wrong for keeping this argument going, maybe, but being that I am the victim of Senkat's attack, and the consequent hit to my reputaion, I keep going.
A few facts and explanations, said based on suggestions I have received from a member here who I consider to be one of the most upstanding people on here.
1) I truly am guilty of having a pet peeve with poeple who harass minors online with no remorese for their actions. There is nothing else that I am guilty of, other than arguing back with a person that clearly has some issues and feels the need to take it out on everyone he sees fit.
2) The fact that I had personal emails to Senkat, and did not reveal them only says one thing. I know there is NO place on this forum for such things. Even cOld knows there were emails while I was banned.
3) Senkat's reactions to said emails only go to show what kind of person he really is(and I am the one in the wrong here?).
4) My reasons for defending myself so strongly should be clear. For one , I absolutely HATE people who abuse kids online, since it happened to my daughter. I am, above all else, a family man. Kids are the most important part of my life, and I feel the need, just as any good parent should, to defend them and do my part to see that they are not abused, whether they are my kids or not. And two, I joined this site for two reasons, those being that I really love the laser hobby, and that this site is realy the only place I can use to help me break even by selling a few of them. I simply will NOT stand back and let someone like Senkat destroy any ability I have to sell here. His senseless flaming is causing hardship to my family also, since we really need the money I could have made to sell this laser.
5) Every statement that I have made in this thread is TRUE, I have no reason to publicly lie.
6) Senkat's actions ARE illegal. Harassment of minors, Defamation of character, and Libel are all punishable offenses. Since he is doing so online, it is more difficult to push the case, but this does not make it right. One day, a parent of one of his victims WILL have him convicted, just as I did to the one who harassed my daughter in what was her favorite gaming forum.
I would be willing to go in front of a judge under oath and make the above statements.
As far as me creating false aliases, there is absolutely NO logical reason for me to do so. I'll say again, I am proud to be a member of this online community(although ashamed of members such as Senkat). I also need some kinds of return on my investment(read above my reasons for joining the site). Knowing this, why risk my membership here just to go after Senkat? That is below anything I'd ever do. If I choose to try to make Senkat accountable for his actions, I'll go through legal channels., though it would be much better if one of his underage victims and their parents do so. Losing my membership by playing childish games, especially when it comes to Senkat, is just not something I would risk. I am known by all of my friends to be a very intelligent person. Anyone who knows me personally could vouch for everything I have said in this thread. As my custom text says, I am a bit of an overgrown kid, which means that even at 34, I still know how to have fun. And no, this thread and all its related trouble has NOT been fun.
Above all else, this thread HAD one purpose, to sell a very nice laser to someone who I am quite sure would have been satisfied with their purchase and the level of service I provided for it. I have never sold any product or service without doing my best to makse sure my customers are happy.
It truly is a shame that so many members here hold Senkat in such high standing. His attitude clearly shows what kind of person he really is, and anyone who takes a deep look at this situation should be able to see through the "curtain" he hides behind.
I really do not feel compelled to repeat myself any more. I have tried over and over again to explain the reasons for my actions.
