Im glad you acknowledged that all the animosity as of late has been in relation to you & the several people you have supporting your business. In case its not 100% obvious, its all been in relation to your/their presentation, attitude, arrogance & downright disrespect that you & "your boys" have approached this forum with.
Ill have to say that it wasnt really you until the past several weeks, but Your "boys" come on here with absolutely NO KNOWLEDGE of anything other than what you may have told them (and what does that amount to, I dont know, could be a lot, could be more hot air) or what they have learned in their 10 months of membership here on MFK, yet run around with threads on F0 this and F0 that, talking down to other hobbyists...not even really knowing what F0 is or even what it is they really have. Then, they want to make comments such as "I only keep F0" and "Anything less than F0 is what I feed my fish" etc etc etc..Arguing with WAY more experienced hobbyists, being disrespectful to those that have contributed A LOT to some of us, especially in emergency situations.
I challenge you to find me ONE SINGLE post by Aquamojo or Rapps (only naming them because thats who you pointed out) that is 1/100th% of the arrogance, condescension, or falsely inflated ego that any of "your boys" have run a muck on here with. You wont find a single post like that from JR or AM anywhere. They are respectful, helpful, WAY more knowledgeable than just about anyone else on here and couldnt be more humble about it. They also know that they dont have to go around dropping their personal stocklists genealogy to try to impress people or let anyone know they know what they are talking about. Their responses and cooth can tell you that better than anything.
You know why? Because they arent some immature thug punks that think they can use F0 cichlids as a GD status symbol on an online fish forum. They know that at the end of the day, jobs, families, bills, gas, electricity, personal trials and tribulations etc matter a whole hell of a lot more than some fish they personally caught in Honduras 6 months ago...and whether its F0, F1, F3, some aquarium strain someone let go in a creek or whatever. NONE of it matters at the end of the day compared to real life issues.
Hopefully, out of all this "debating" and heated discussion, you guys have learned that you get respect when you give it, and that no matter what we know or think we know, there is ALWAYS someone right next to us that knows 100x more than we do. PERIOD. We'll never be able to change that, so its best to go ahead and get over it.
