Are you f##ing kidding me? You're pleased, eh?

Tact, Sean, is not your strong suite; totally classless (for a variety of reasons).

I am trying to think of a douchier thing I've read on n54 over the past 10-years, and I honestly can't. So, at least you have that going for you.


Rich, keep battling, sir --- we're all behind you.

Aaron, I admit my choice of words was poor. I would hope that Rich would know that I didn't mean any negativity behind what I said.

Swing and a miss, Sean. Swing and a miss.

I already reached out to Rich. Take it as you will, he knows what my true intentions were.

I read Sean's original post, and thought it was in poor taste. Then I thought for a second and realized a couple of things. If Rich is pleased with the price Sean gave him, then that's great because it immediately solves a concern he had. Also I think, and I really do believe this, that Sean simply meant to say thank you publicly for the opportunity to purchase in the context. This thread has had so much goodwill, so I just want to see that continue.

I wish I could have said it like this. It was a quick post on my phone and it meant I was happy to have helped and thank Rich - nothing more.

My prayers are with you Rich. It doesn't surprise me the vultures are out. Be careful.

Situations like this are extremely difficult. I'm sure Rich's condition is raising the sensitivity level, but let's not pretend that this, like any other chat site, is not rife with misinterpretations, bad phrasing, and occasionally, bad manners. Looks as if Sean1125 messed up and apologized. Hopefully, everyone takes a deep breath and a step back before continuing to post.

On to the MOST IMPORTANT issue: good luck Rich. I haven't been a member very long and I don't comment much on the boards, but keep fighting. Never concede. I wish you the best of luck and health in the coming weeks and months and, hopefully, years.
