Needs non-Maxima Friends Last Activity: 11-16-2005 12:22 AM :wall: |
darn i was hoping he was banned. :hide:
|
Scandinavian winter set in?
|
probably still a little bitter about the brake thread where Matt owned him.
|
I miss his wit and knowledge. Last time I remember him here he was in a flaming match with someone who didn't read much and wanted the answers given to them. I bet he's reading:gotme:
|
i hope he is ok...... seems weird to just disappear like that.... i hope he is ok:noes:
|
I got a Christmass card from him. Just emailed him... I hope he's alright.
|
I have to admit he's an acquired taste, but his presence is definately missed...
|
his cardomain was updated yesterday so we can be sure he's not dead.
|
thats good to know.. probably taking a break from the forums for a little
|
"one who not knows that thou i know shall not be spoken to like thy person"

He hasn't been around since a few days after our little brake thread....
He had a ton of useful info, but some rather strange concepts about certain things... we agreed for the most part and everything we didn't agree on was simply a difference in opinion, but his "you don't need rear brakes" posts just couldn't be ignored and I had to say what I said. If that ran him off, then my apologies to him for being thin-skinned... but you simply can't tell a forum of several thousand people that it's okay to disable your rear brakes because rally drivers don't use them (when in fact they use them more than the fronts).. Anyway, I'd like to see him back.. I like picking and nagging at him over trivial things. :) |
did that guy ever figure out whether or not to swap his rear brakes?
..........oh and, candiman, candiman, candiman........what now. |
I never understood why the guy never tried to improve his translator program or what ever it was that had made it a mission to comprehend each of his posts. There were others like Phatsta from the same part of the world, and spoke just fine with his own type of translator. After I tried helping Wiking out about it(since his info was good, but not his english) all I got was an obnoxious, childish, hard headed reply one after another.
|
i miss reading his witty replies :(
|
i'll drink 2 to the man.....helped me fix my 4th gen and the ex's 3rd gen. elec. guru he is and all.
|
Here's to ya, Wiking!

I could never understand the guy although I think that there was nothing wrong with his english...99% of his replies were very short and very weird:bustrun: I hope he sticks around though-he seems like a guy who knows a few things about electronics...and it will a shame if he gave up on the org just because of a small arguement...
|
yeah I was wondering the same thing? what happen to him. I started to make apost about him too. He know a lot and posted a lot each day. But dam his sayings are hard to interpert some times though.

his comments weren't exactly hard to understand, you just had to think about what he said and interpret some of the language barrier.
Then again, his english and grammar were better than half the idjits that were born here. |

At first I was like WTF are you taking about, until I remember what I wrote. One mistake, that should be 5 times not 3. Candyman was a movie back in the early 90's of a killer who would appear out of no where if you said his name 5 times. Two other sequels were made after the original https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...6/Candyman.jpg Now back to Wiking |
in response to "i caught a fish and its green, can you tell me what it is?"
wiking: "no you see, my father was a fisherman and that is what we call, the WEED." lol wikings the man |
Yeah, I was wondering about him too. As for his english skills, cut the man some slack. How many people here would bother going to a foreign language forum and fully participating in the discussion?? I missed the brake thread, so I dont know what was said, but maybe he took things the wrong way. I'm just sayin'.
