Power Kite Forum

Kite Lines ebay, are we flying neighbors?

shehatesmyhobbies - 25-4-2011 at 05:46 AM

So would the kite lines ebay guy like to meet up?

If your location is where you say it is, then we are local to each other. If you are a kite enthusiast, I would really like to meet you and fly together!

Send me a u2u or post up on this thread

Seem like spam ...:ticking: with the number of post all at once.

Seanny - 25-4-2011 at 07:17 AM

Hmmm, I'm not so sure. He posts quite frequently, and they're more like comments than anything that would contribute to the topic... however, it's all kite-related, it's not annoying yet, and he's not exploiting his business or any others. I'd let it slide for now, just as long as he doesn't actually start spamming or gives a lot of bad advice. Just my 2c.

where in NY...?

van - 25-4-2011 at 08:55 AM

Cool .. glad you're for real. You didn't make it to the recent WWB event? I was getting worry with all the posting. We get alot of spam on the forum once in a while from new members without proper introduction. Welcome to the forum. Rich (shehatesmyhobbies) is the coolest ... hook up with him when you get a chance.

Puts ya in snowkite country!(in season,of course) Do you buggy/landboard? :dunno: Not sure where you can go on that side of the state, but if ever between Tug Hill, Lake Ontario, I'd be happy to show you Southwick Beach on Lake Ontario for buggin, and Tug Hill for snowkiting. There's other members in your area, too. Welcome.

That's about an hour north of me. But you will have bigben as a neighbor.

WIllardTheGrey - 25-4-2011 at 01:27 PM

I smell a rat. Or a spam sandwich not sure.

rocfighter - 25-4-2011 at 02:18 PM

I don't like SPAM, too slimey for me.

acampbell - 25-4-2011 at 03:07 PM

posts are careless and disingenuous- only used to broadcast his e-bay link. Smells like Jonesband

van - 25-4-2011 at 03:50 PM

That was my original thought so we'll have to wait if Rich can meet up with him and let us know.

SPAM is good if you slice them up thin and fried em up nice and crunchy :lol:

shehatesmyhobbies - 25-4-2011 at 03:50 PM

I was seeing if I could actually reel him. I guess he is real, and I would not mind meeting him. I will be flying Saturday at Big Oak park in Smyrna. If you want to catch up short me an email. Send your number and I will call you.

Seanny - 25-4-2011 at 04:00 PM

I'm beginning to get more and more annoyed. I didn't think Jonesband would have the nerve to return to this forum? Guess we'll wait and see.

Oh. And another thing. Of all places to spam (in general), I really want to know why the hell THIS FORUM is a target. We're such a small, centralized group of people... I mean I can understand if you own a business in the kite industry and you're spamming your site all over, but what about the people who just post random senseless #@%$#! as many times as they can? Are they just users who got pissed at an earlier date and want vengeance or something? Most people don't even know what a power kite is... why would you search for a random cult forum to do this to?

Chicks Auto in Guam gives you (or used to) a whole trunk full of spam when you buy a new car................I ate alot of spam in Guam (pre internet spam):singing::lol::lol::duh::duh:

I did not mean to say he is Jonesband; just reeks the same. He is peppering posts with comments indicating a lack of knowledge and context. Clearly just trying to spam his E-bay link.

Even his e-bay products do not make sense. Very odd combos of strength/ test.

PHREERIDER - 25-4-2011 at 04:47 PM

what is 900/900 . apparently dimensionless index

Seanny - 25-4-2011 at 05:07 PM

Some of them are measured in lbs, but the rest I have noooo idea.......

shehatesmyhobbies - 25-4-2011 at 05:52 PM

Well I think he is scared off for now! I am not sure if he really does live five minutes from me or not, I saw his post first thing this morning and could not resist looking on his link, once I saw his location is right where I live and grew up, I had to see for myself! He did send me an email through the ebay posting, I just had to find out if there really was another kiter in my area, heck there is only three of us now! He only had a few things for sale, not even worth running around junking up a great place like PKF!

Seanny when you google almost anything about kites, this site pops up in the list of places about kites, it is always a target for spam, heck even for stuff not about kites at all! It is amazing to me sometimes!

Seanny - 25-4-2011 at 05:58 PM

It IS amazing. If I was going to spam (which I wouldn't... but this is theoretical...), the first thing I WOULDN'T do is search for KITE FORUMS. WTF.

Anyway... :rolleyes:

I really do hope you find someone in your area to ride with. I know what it's like to go solo for a while.

rocfighter - 25-4-2011 at 06:02 PM

Van we used to have spam a lot (not Spamalot) years ago. Every morning in our eggs! Or grilled up nice and crispy.

shehatesmyhobbies - 25-4-2011 at 06:10 PM

I don't ride solo to much Seanny, I fly with Rian, who is 15 min away, and the rest of the ECKS crew does come to see us and viseversa! I was just surprised when I clicked on his ebay account and saw the info on there!

One day you will get to make it out here and join us for a WBB , you have to make sure Adam is going to be there then you can knock out two birds with one stone!

kiteetik - 26-4-2011 at 01:19 PM

im feelin kind of guilty about buying the spam at a grocery store--arent there any spam dealers on this forum that i could buy from and "keep it in the family"?? lol

rocfighter - 26-4-2011 at 04:19 PM

I'm glad I live so far from any stores. I don't need to get back into the habbit of Something Posing As Meat.
