Bigbuck, Osprey, Eric and others,
I do care and support THW, but it seems as though there is so much crap going on lately that you never know who is real, who is feeding bullshit, and who has crazy motives etc.
Since one can check the posts from everyone on SI, this type of posting has me confused as to the one sided situation. Is this a don't do as we do, but do as we say situation? As just one example this post from Big Buk makes me wonder why I get ten defenders jumping to a situation because of my posting when this sort of posting seems to be commonplace by some of you on this SI board in the past. Perhaps you all have grown up and gone past that.
One recent example from BIG Buk:

Save the whining for someone who will listen.BYEBYE
Bigbuk

It is understandable that everyone at one time or another can get a little pissed at the situation. However, since it didn't involve me I can ignore it. I only used it here to make a point.
I can get offended just like anyone else and I was offended. However, I can also put that behind me and then apologize to you people for my crass nature. I was very heated yesterday and let my temper get the better of me, but that is no excuse.
My apologizes to Osprey. I should have sent you a private e-mail as you suggested and then this would not have involved anyone else. To Big Buk, my apologies and I do understand that some of you have a relationship with Osprey that has been built up over time and I seem to be the intruder on that relationship. And to the others, I agree with Eric that we should all get back to discussing the positives of THW.
I have always stuck to the positives about THW in the past and my frustration got the better of me and I started to act like some of those people who get reactive and lash out instead of being proactive and offering solutions.
I also have been in contact with the company and know things are going great! Although I can't discuss the details because on an NDA, I can inform you that THW's management is now dealing with very reputable people in the Eastern Canada and Eastern US, and also on the West Coast in California.
No drivel or bull, just an apology with an effort to get back to the positives about THW.
