Well I hate to pile on the kid and I don't like bringing this up, but I'm left wondering if I had I brought this up initially maybe someone wouldn't have trusted the kid's character and wouldn't be out a substantial amount of money.

A few years ago I posted an ad for selling a preamp on LA Craigslist. Young Mr. Eland responded to my ad asking if I'd be interested in trading the preamp for his tuner (the very one that he was desperate to sell here). I responded to him that I wasn't interested as I had no need for a tuner. I received a response that was extremely rude, filled with profanity, and disturbed me longer than it should have. It's not something I could post here. Wondering if he could have possibly mistaken that e-mail for someone else, I sent the kid a reply asking why he would respond to me in such a way and also letting him know he owed me an apology. I never heard from him again and I know he wasn't aware that he was dealing with a member of this forum.

Had the response been from some anonymous person, I would have brushed it off almost immediately. That he was a frequent poster on this forum made it that much more disturbing. He had also joined the S. Cal Hornheads Yahoo group that I started. Knowing that this group was put together to foster sharing our systems with each other (and that did happen on occasion) I knew I could not have him in my house had I ever hosted a listening session at my place. I also figured others might not want that either had they been aware of his character. While he seemed polite on this forum and in the Hornhead exchanges he had, I got a glimpse of what he was really like. Thus, I eventually decided to remove his membership. I even struggled with that as I didn't want to make that decision on my own -- after all, the group belonged to everybody. But in order to solicit other's opinions, I would have had to share that e-mail with them, so months later I eventually decided to take the action on my own without other consutation.

Yes, it is a smaller world than he thinks.

No disrespect to Timmikid's ordeal with this young pup but that line above just had me on the floor! I can only imagine how young he is too forget he left a very close community after jilting one of it's members to think he can nonchalantly drop back in thinking all is well and that someone here misses him (Tissue please, it's a Kodak moment)
Yeah, back in the day I tell ya

Let's hope CTP makes amends.

I wasn't part of repairing Timmikid's amp(s) problem, but I did watch and read the forum members take care. Amazing.

I remember the forum paying for the refurbishing of a Scott amp for a now deceased member. I did participate in that. Happily.

It's too bad we have to be more skeptical as to who we can give our combined favors to.....

We are very powerful as a group.

Let's hope this keeps us from helping the next time.

Let's hope CTP makes amends.

If I remember right, someone here (Gilbert maybe?) found him tossing around his B.S. on a corvette forum and called him out here for it. I can't seem to find the thread, maybe it was locked and deleted. I remember him well because he joined the forum within a day of me. Hopefully he has matured and then could come back here and post with some credibility. Good luck CTP!

Looks like he got his wish.

That made me laugh! Now, as I said in the other thread. Let us focus on the good in the forum and talk about music and gear again. Let this thread dissappear soon... Until he's back again... Welcome indeed. But should pay his debts, or at least make an effort and contact. Over and out. Tim

I"ll amend my previous greeting to 'welcome back if you pay your bills'.

Timmikid — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 05:58:28 GMT

Hello all! That was surprising again to see him return. He has not been in touch with me. I have probably chased him away again. I sent him a pm to ask him to pay his debts. Like last time he popped up. Tim.

Did he ever make things right with Timmikid? Timmikid is still around.
