Did I mention you by name? If you read what I said "don't let one person or a couple of people get you down"
BLANKET like you say it was just a blanket comment. If you feel it was directed at you personally that is your problem. Like you say it was just a blanket opinion. But like OP response to you it made no sense to his question. He didn't asked who got the true dedicated skills. If you want to be technical anyone that's got the money and space can build a 10,000 gallon tank. Try to stick to the topic next time.
You don't need to mention me by name. I made the comment about money, and this was your reply:

the one idiot who thinks money can buy any collection

So tell me, who were you talking about? Sounds pretty direct to me, and not a blanket opinion. As for the topic at hand, the OP asked:

Was wondering who c.r.e.a.m. thought has the sickest cichla collection and set up?

To which I replied, JohnPTC, because of his set up and monster cichla. If that's not on-topic, then I don't know what is. How in the hell does that not make any sense to the thread topic? I suppose I should have let the 'lemming effect' take over and say 'zomg Don has xingus he pwns!!!!11" like everybody else, and I could have avoided all this ignoramus garbage
 
Cichla people are pitbull people. We take our fish just as seriously and hard nosed as we take the rest of our lives. If you think youre gonna call out a cichla keeper and not take a few shots across the bow youre crazy. Everything we own bites, and they all learned it from US muahahaha! With that in mind, I know alot of these other guys feel the same way and wont take any lip from anybody. Dealing with c.r.e.a.m members is very much like dealing with an alpha dog. Lose your place and you might get bit back in line. GRRRRRRRRRRRR rawr rawr rawr BEOTCH! :ROFL:

R1,Dmack.. R1 had a much better collection, Dmack had a very sick set up.. so if i cant vote for myself Joey gets collection, Dmack gets set up..

thanks to all of you who gave me my deserving props, Joey aka R1 my hommie ;), and everyone else who gave me my respect and props, but i will speak on this one time and once only, I will no longer share my collection with MFK nor post pictures or videos... I put so much time money dedication into the upkeep of my Expensive and very Rare cichla collection to accept criticism and rude remarks from anyone who doesnt know me or what it took for me to achieve this level of fishkeeping i have reached, I have had them all if you dont believe me do a search on me Intermedia, pinima, all except fogo.. so as far as having best collection not to toot my own horn but toot toot lol i do think i have the sickest or best collection how ever you guys put it.. I feed my fish the best food out there, i do water changes 100% every 2 days, i have them housed in a 1000gallon tank, i have all south american fish housed together.. i am a dedicated fish hobbyst to the fullest.. i take this $h!t very serious and am dissapointed to be called a person with money.. as oposed to a die hard or hard core cichla collector.. Thanks to Li aka Neo for making a wonderful place for fish people to meet chat and share things.. but its obvious its my time to go.. i will miss all that were cool and sorry to let you guys down that loved my collection but this is the end...

Don..:(

:( sucks sorry some annoying member(s) just has nothing good say. Good luck to you.

Well if you read my first response to you I stated I didn't know you were the one who stated about money that I had to go back and look. So when I made my first post it was not directed at anyone specific you were not even on my mind, but a blanket comment like you say.

But enough about your excuses. When almost every single post previous to yours was voting don having the sickest collection then your post says you vote for John cause anyone with a few dollars can buy fish but true skills and dedication is building a 10K tank.

Sorry for not being a lemming. Now I know how I should behave in order to avoid conflict. :thumbsdow

Who were they? In what posts? Do me a favor and point him/them out. Seems like people got a lot on their minds about my comment, so let's not beat around the bush anymore. Lets just lay it out on the table, once and for all.

That's why you still don't get it. Nothing wrong with your comment for voting for JohnPTC. Its your comment that anyone with a few dollars can buy fish is why you vote for John.
Oh no I get it, trust me. Is that a personal attack? How so? "if you got the money, you can buy any fish". Seems like an accurate statement to me. Not backed by opinion, or hate, or jealousy.

And that's the problem with the forum discussion. People try to dissect statements with microscopic detail. Folks try to read in between the lines too much. Had this discussion taken place in person, none of this would have happened because written and spoken communication is so different. You guys need to put down your fine-tooth comb, and have a Coke and a smile.

For anyone who took offense to what I said, and took it as a personal attack...you need to find some happiness in your life because I pity how meaningless your existence must be to seriously get your feelings hurt over something as pety as this. :)

I believe I'm done here unless I see a reason to respond. As a wiseman once said, I now leave this field of battle to the crows.
