Hello all i see there has been some confusion due to me being absent and for that i apologize to u all, so maybe this will clear things up and we can resume our lives and move foward to all my customers i apologize for the many delays , i thought i explained thoroughly in my updates periodically to u all but im sry if u didnt understand , most did and most r satisfied and wanted to wait , there seems there have been a very few that had mixed feelings and didnt feel like they could tell me that they felt they waited too long , well all i can say to that is im honestly sry publically , i wish i could have found out by u contacting me and i understand when i was a away i had internet problems but then i updated and told u all to go to my redbigjoe email account and some did read that post and it seems some didnt , then i got my old email address back up and updated that to u all and i guess some did and some didnt read that , all in all i think mostly we have only a communication problem, basically u few people simply didnt contact me correctly or maybe u should have tried a bit harder like wait two days and send another email and keep doing it for a week , im sure by then i would have answered, i know that could be a bit troublesome but at the time that is all i could handle now im back pretty good and working pretty strong and im readily available and easily found , i must say i have missed all of u guys even the little trolls , they make me laugh alot also to all moderators and administraters , i have no ill will towards u guys and i feel u r dealing with it the way u feel people want u to and that is fine as long as it sits well with u and u feel good about yourselves, thank u for giving me the oppurtunity to address the issues at hand so in closing and moving foward i would like to express one thing please, if i ever do any work for anyone on this board new or old , please please contact me when u have a problem , im sure most know im easy to talk to and if it is wrong i will do all i can to fix what ever is wrong , I STRONGLY STRONGLY GUARANTEE ALL MY WORK , remember i have done work for over two years now and i have done many LET ME STRESS MANY jobs for many people, i am not perfect i am only a human being trying to make people happy with their watches, i can make mistakes but i also can correct them if giving the chance to A short story for u all: one thing that made me feel good yesterday was this, i have a customer from two years back and i have another job to perform for him now btw, he called and said someone did some work on his watch , it came back uncorrected and he was [censored] (im not going to name any names so dont ask , i dont throw stones , cause i know everyone is not perfect ) anyway he was [censored] cause he then sent the watch back to the maker which is omega and they said it would cost alot of money to fix it and he paid and the watch is on its way back now , and u know what i asked him after he finished telling me how unhappy he was with the first person that performed the work? did u contact the guy that worked on it for u ? he said no, my answer was , then how can u be [censored] u didnt even give the man a chance to correct the problem u have with it , u should only be mad at yourself , in conclusion at that time i could have came here and tried to discredit the guy especially how i felt at the time , lol but my point is i didnt only because that would make me no better than others casting stones and i felt genuinely that he was at fault for not contacting the man that did the work in the first place , the moral is if u r not happy with the work that got performed for u by me at least and im sure this goes for all others that work on watches, please let us know so we can get the chance to help u feel satisfied , we r not god or buddha or who or whatever u worship , we r merely people who share your same passion for watches please live life to its fullest and dont let anyone walk over u , if u dont stand your ground of what u know to be true then u r a coward and this world has too many of them that hide in sheeps clothing thank u for lending me your ears, now lets get busy on some new watches, it seems there have been many better quality items floating around since i have been absent, i just ordered me about three, i will do some nice breakdowns for u guys on this again this is not a thread for stones to be thrown or for the trolls to take stabbs at me(which i know will) some new guy has already started on my typing/writing skills but most of the people know me and can understand i type fast and state what is on my mind and type it and yes my sentences do run on lmao, i only wrote this because this is how i feel about things , theres no blacklist , i dont believe in those things i dont have time to go check and see if he is on a list or something , lol thanks joe

ok i will ignore them from now on, but can u at least delete the hijacks? and go ahead and delete anything u see that i said was not necessary to thanks for your input and explanation joe
-
hey that is fine by me but the people i am pointing out responses r not needed either, i have done no work for any of the ones i pointed out so to me they r steering as well, all i ask is to fix that and u can delete all of my responses because i feel i was made to respond to them and if u look its not as many as u act like , where r all these peoople at ? supposedly upset so bad that i done them wrong? please tell them to respond to me , i would never know they were the ones talking with u guys if they simply respond to me how would i , all they have to say is i just saw all this stuff and i felt whatever they feel, or if these fantasy people do infact have a problem then email me personally i assure u i will help to fix the problem as i always have, the thing is i dont get these complaints that u keep talking about , so u tell me how can i fix them if i dont know about them? i have to go to dinner when i get back i will respond if need be ok thanks also for letting me know something thanks joe

-
kenmc i dont want u banned i think u add character to the place actually ,lol i just dont think u should be allowed to post on a post that your opinion was not asked , thats all thanks joe
-
ok so im wrong in asking u to do to those guys what u have done to me ?u told me hijacking a thread is against the rules , r these rules only set for certain people or everybody? i guess i dont get it but i do see one thing that is perfectly clear now and i'm glad many others do as well , i used to be proud to have helped with getting this new rwg started but now i cant say that i will drop it now but i cant stand by and let someone take cheap shots on me on threads that didnt ask them that ok to me and many others it is called double standards now im really done see u around guys , no hard feelings towards u two tone joe
-
when did u become a moderator or is it u still cant read? this is for mods and admin, not u , so please refrain from your smart comments man moderating is a job , i think u guys should get a salary for this , i have been doing it just today and im beat , lol thanks joe
-
now we have kenmc hijacking on ubiquitous's thread about outstanding orders, what he said does not pertain to the thread and i got suspended for this same reason , so please attend to that one as well and delete thanks joe
-
Kenmc hijacking will get u suspended please delete this moderators after u r done with his u can also delete this for me as well , lol nothing has changed for kenmc he is still a loud mouth , and has been now for two years now another suckup is all i and many see from u joe
-

but the thing is when i was sick i still slowly was producing the stuff that was easy to do, and i sold a few things on ebay so what that is none of your business, lol i was not dead just sick alot and sometimes i felt good enough to do some work on watches but i couldnt do the tidious stuff but its not so hard to snap a picture of a old golf club or a old pair of shoes and sale it on ebay and it didnt take much time either(for the most part when im sick i get bored and that is the real reason i sold a few things on ebay) , it wasnt like i was managing a store , i simply sold a few of my personal items at that time , whats the big deal , lol oh its always a big deal with u guys that i have done no work for , just as i read hens cackling over nothing , oh well i knew someone would stick there nose in this business as well, IF U READ [censored] TRACEY I WAS TALKING SPECIFICALLY TO MODERATORS AND OR ADMIN. S, AND IT DIDNT SEEM TO TAKE THEM TOO LONG TO SUSPEND ME OVER SOMETHING LESS THAN WHAT IM ASKING THEM TO LOOK AT ,,AGAIN THIS THREAD IS FOR THEM AND THEM ONLY NOT U , OK thanks joe
-
i have seen two mods read this and still no action,when i was said to have hijacked a thread u were on me like flies on stinky , lol this is a shameless bump
-
i will bump with u my old netherland friend, at least u made me smile , well ok i laughed , lmao
-
its funny how i get suspended for explaining things to people when randy started his thread , u called it hijacking a thread, but i felt it wasnt cause my name is in the thread , so anyway u guys explained after the fact and i was fine with it,well sort of well now if i can get into trouble over that crap ,then why is archibald allowed to go on a thread started by enative and take away from the thread , i dont think enative or anyone asked him about a past problem that occured , and what he said is not the whole truth, so please delete it and manuel is doing the same thing, to be truthfull , there r so many views on the thread manuel points out , i think most have read it fine so no one asked him on enatives thread for that , so all i ask is treat enatives thread as u have treated ubiquitous(randy's) thread and delete all things not pertaining to the subject matter , i have seen two moderators and one admin. reading it and they did nothing , if this is equality forum then lets see it be ran like one that is fair and impartial by not letting someone hijack a thread thank u for your attention to this matter, i am not really asking for a reply back here (just want to be treated fairly as i have all my customers) but i did pm three people on the team and they were looking at the thread and no action was taken so this is why i am posting this thread a good moderator cannot be biased, u have to be fair to everyone, u cant reprimand one guy and not the other for the same thing also i cant get work done if i have to tend to this childish stuff all the time thanks for lending me your ear joe
-
thanks for finally telling the whole truth , that is all i ask, if u have a problem just talk to me as u stated im easy to talk to so why not just talk to me period? anyway even if it had to be on the forum im glad u finally told the truth and at least people can see the whole truth and not just partial truth , i would never take anything that didnt belong to me my integrity is everything to me , i cant say that about others and i dont care about the jealous people of this board but all i can say is im extremely honest and would break my back into to make someone happy or at least satisfied , looking foward to your email manuel thanks joe
-
no problem and that thread u graciously tried to show , has over 1200 views now i think by now most have read it , and again what is your point, three have posted that r long overdue but there is a reason why which i call (SPECIAL PROJECT, NEW THINGS OR LOST WATCH, which im replacing even before the post office refunds me, so he doesnt have to wait anymore i might add) so again i havent wrong these people , i asked randy three days ago i believe did he still want me to continue the work on his watch cause i was confused with his thread, he replied how much longer do i think it would be and i told him and he said he would let me know that same night , well here we r a few day later and he still hasnt answered me , point being that same day he could've gotten his watch back and his money minus shipping, but another three or could be two days have gone by and still no answer, but next week i will get accused of a long delay , lmao come on guys lets get real here , it seems im supposed to be punctual but u r not , is this the case?
-
this is all fine with me , now again why not just ask me directly ? i have our emails and u made it seem like u might being something else, so i figured u just have a credit with me is fine, also i did spend a little time with your watch like check on things fitting and such and talking with u about your project via email and over the phone ,so i guess u r saying my time because u changed your mind on a project is worthless? u changed your mind u said because a freind was going to buy your parts from u and u couldnt pass this up , soon as u asked i mailed it three days out so whats the problem again? just email me what u think is a fair refund , dont forget your shipping charges please , thanks this is not hijacking because he asked me a question directly , thanks joe
-
manuel same thing , he didnt ask that , so why hijack the thread and get on the bandwagon bro reember tenative is no newbie he joined when this forum started , im sure he has seen that crap thread , dont u ? hell it has had more view hits than most on this board in only a few days running , lmao and im sure the reason he started this thread is because he knows the truth , so let it be for what it is , i never did u any harm so please it is not your affair mods please delete, its not sticking with the thread topic it sucks when i get moderated on and now i have to moderate for myself, lol thanks joe
-
if this is not hijacking a thread i dont know what is, i wasnt going to get on this thread and let the people answer tenatives reply and his thread archibald, there r no facts on your accusation on a botched watch for 600usd , it was explained , the guy that owned the watch posted how nice and much he loved it 3 months ago , if that isnt proof enough then im sry but its none of your business so keep out, as for shipping charges u r referring to how childish r u ? if i charged someone 25 for a 4 dollar shipping then im not aware of it (standard shipping/handling is 10 bucks and usually cost 7 bucks with 100 dollar insurance attached ) and my ebay sales is none of your business either thank u guys for your support and im glad u r happy , same as anybody all u have to do if u have a problem is just call me and or email me so i can help correct the problem , if i dont know then how can i fix it is my point, on a full mod job u should know immediately if something is wrong , so please contact me if there is and even it goes down the road i will help u , keep that in mind , im not a fortune teller and i am human i can make mistakes , cant u? i usually dont make many but i can , lol mods please delete archibald , it has no merit and is not pertaining to this thread, it is making accusations and starting trouble and taking away from this thread all together, thanks u joe

that is neat as hek
-
it would be more like 3/64 , the ones i use resist heat to 1100*F of heat i use no oil , i used to with those cheap bits however, bosch has it numbered co4130 btw and yes those cheap openers suck especially the t-handle ones joe
-
i probably have about 4 that r over due and have a right to be sort of ill or like randy said meh , keep in mind it was not purposely and they all know why , i call them special projects, like make a brevet crown from a mold (and make that mold) , plate gold and silver like screws on a audemar piquet watch or a two tone bracelets endlinks ,wait for michael young to send a hand made dial or figure out ways to make a unfinished datewheel or etc. just simply experimental stuff that i or noone else has done but i like the challenge , but they still want me to finish the job, so i am doing as im asked and most havent complained , most of my complaints r from people i dont owe anything to or done any work for , so that is really all i can think of that could be ill or antsy , i wish ones that r would let me know (so i can do as i always have and look after them)(whether send them there watch back and there money if they sent some , doesnt matter me just as long as there happy) cause u guys seem to think there r alot of people mad but really it is not to the best of my knowledge , while i was sick i didnt take any orders in and when i got better i took some , thats all basically that i know , hope this helps u pug wash and others thanks joe

yes crystal, thanks joe
