I understand there are rules to this forum and that they are extremely important. When you are a "newbie" there is much reading and research to be done. I continue to read and learn on this site. I made a post recently that contained some information that is not allowed per the forum rules. I did not do this purposely. We are all human and all make mistakes ... this was my first mistake on DBG. A veteran member responded in the thread directly to me and could not have been more condescending and sarcastic. Does anyone else think this is unnecessary or am I wrong? I did not respond to the person and just openly apologized to everyone in the thread and that was that.

I think you might be referring to the comment made by myself? How can it be "that was that" if you make a separate thread wanting to discuss it?

Fact of the matter is, if I was to post exactly what I'm thinking when I see posts like the one made by yourself,  the post I did make would seem like a birthday present.

Unnecessary? I wish. I see 2E's post at the top of every vendor thread and its very clear what can be posted there and the reason why. I see PTFC having to clean up posts in the vendor threads nearly every day. Normally I ignore it, the reason I made a comment on your post is this: When I place a order with a vendor with a specific delivery day and I come into the thread with someone posting the vendor has guaranteed that day for delivery, that is so not cool you have no idea. When you draw attention to your package, you are attracting attention to mine.  

Sometimes I wish they would just let everybody post what day they are ordering, what day they expect touchdown and which shipper has their package and what the shipper says when they call concerned that tracking hasnt updated for over a hour. That way I could just order on a different day and request a different shipper.

I understand you are new here. When I was new here; it was much more wild west than it is now. I didn't even post but once or twice for at least a year because I didn't want to be chastised by the vets. And yes,  I have posted the same thing you posted before, we all have. We have also learned over the years why sharing certain information is a bad idea. I've personally had to learn the hard way. Some of us have placed hundreds of orders over the years. And we share what we have learned with you to help you have a successful order. But I'm the bad guy? I don't want you to post information that puts your, mine, or anyone else's order at additional risk than what is usual. If you really felt my comment was some sort of attack or out of line, just report the post for moderation.

The vendor thread rules are posted at the top of every page and completely ignored on the daily, even by veteran posters who know better.

So I'm sorry that you obviously (by making this thread) feel offended or whatever you feel. You might want to make a big deal about it, start a discussion, maybe the consensus will be that I am just rude a.f. to a newbie who only did the same thing 6 different people did on the same day. I don't care. We don't have a problem.  Unless you insist on it I guess.

@girlgerms I was honestly offended, yes. I appreciate your response to this thread. I may have created the thread in haste because my emotions got the better of me. Thanks for taking the time to respond and helping me to understand where you were coming from.

  12. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  13. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  15. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  16. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  18. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  20. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
