In response to my post yesterday in which I tried to politely tell people to start using private messages if what you have to say is going to waste other people's time......I received a few responses from individuals who seem to be on this thread for the right reasons. I did not receive any responses from folks that disagreed or had a smart ass answer for me. I think this shows that we are here on this thread for a particular purpose....to find out what is going on with Midland. Some folks responded that although certain posts were not directly related to the business at hand, they were indirectly related, and therefor pertinent to our current situation. I could not agree more......some things are worth sharing as we are all in this together. However, the people I was directing my post to, all know who you are. You are the one's that never post anything of use on this thread, and all you do is waste other people's time by posting here. We don't need to throw names around and nobody needs to respond back to me in defense of your posts. If you have something you wish to share and you feel it is something we want to hear, then by all means.....lets hear it. But if you are going to post to this thread with absolutley useless info, then save us the time, and don't post here. Additionally, I notice that some posts between individuals start out with a kind of useful banter, but many of these " exchanges " quickly turn into battles between individuals that end up going back and forth, back and forth, back and forth....with not one bit of useful info. You people simply start fighting with each other, cutting each other down, challenging each other to " duels " and etc....It's like the Jerry Springer show.....why would you people want to make fools out of yourselves by doing all this in public ?? At least I have a choice as to whether I wish to watch Jerry Springer.....but I don't have that choice here. Here, if I wish to search this thread for useful info, I have no choice but to read all the posts from individuals that think their mother could woop his mothers rear end and etc.........YOU PEOPLE need to start posting this crap privately...we do not wish to hear this stuff. Additionally, as we all think we are incognito here on the net, you never know who is who, and you never know who is lurking around. I promise you folks...you do not know the full deal with posting on this, and other threads. Those of you that misuse this site and others, will soon be in for a very real rude awakening. You can laugh at this, or you can take it seriously. I would imagine the people here on this thread for the right reasons understand and agree with me, while the others are currently laughing and will continue to do what they do. Trust me..a lesson will be learned by one and all. Good luck to all the serious folks out there.......we are all in this midland fiasco together and hopefully the storm will be ending soon. As for the rest of you people.....take heed in what I say.......you are not as anonymous and unknown as you think.
