Re: The SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight
Forrest: Kestrel's reminder was nothing but polite, especially as you have been asked to keep that in mind on several occasions already. You are free to leave if you wish. If you choose to stay, please be mindful of the need to stay on topic, or start a new thread on your desired topic, per Kestrel's post. Thank you.
PS: It's Dr. Matthews.
The post read to me as condescending. Not the first time from staff. Definitely a first for Kestrel, he's a good dude.
You sent me one message with a happy face to be good. Im not even sure of the post or if any feathers were even ruffled. I do remeber the subject of the inquiry was rather benign. Either way I believe my response was "Yes Sir." The only other recent instance I can think of is that Bill recommended me not to post in the Titan thread. My reply was "Done". Yes, I am aware of the good doctors name, he is a hero of mine. Just remembered....Scouts24 post in the thread that shall not be mentioned as it's a disservice to the hobby.... OP directly insulted me and
I was asked not do what the uninformed and incorrect OP did to me. I think you guys do a fine job regardless. But Scout24 has me wrong (on that point) in that thread. I did however instantly omit 1 word that was a complete stretch to be considered an insult. To be fair, I did send him a PM of that post should anything need to be changed.
I confess to being rather impressed at the detailed analysis above considering that this post begins with citing the
'reflector' in the EB1 - this model series has had a
TIR optic for at least the last half-dozen years.

Please desist with postings that go off-topic
but then conclude with a statement that attempts to excuse the OT posting & close off the discussion. *** Instead, if an off-topic discussion is desired, please do so in a separate thread and then the summary statements that attempt to close down the OT conversation can then be omitted.
Best regards,
It's an absolute travesty the few mistypes I had in that post. Not to mention my super crafted one liner from a movie to stifle discussion. Looks like I need to be publicly patronized.
Kerstel ( my favorite mod that I've literally have had nothing but positive interactions with ) it's not even you but a cumulative biased culture that is blatantly obvious. This was just bad timing. I've reached that point. The thin skinned and misinformed that like to personally attack me are never held to the same standard ( research it ). They all have one thing in common. Imagine that. This isn't a forum, it's a sales add and last I recall I haven't seen any checks in the mail. I may not be the picture perfect poster, but I back up the info I share 100% It's a good thing I don't spend countless hours obtaining new information and even more to make sure of it's accuracy. Then I get spit on by people who have no idea what they are talking about or any inclination to use google before running their mouth. Yet any time a mod points out something that I might need to edit I do so almost instantaneously. How many times do I have to tell you people
I don't do disrespect? It almost seems like a hobby for a minority of posters and some of the staff.
Do us both a favor and make it permanent. Some things are just more important than simply being apart of a "forum". Thank you and the CPF family for your time and knowledge. I have indeed learned a lot and I do owe that to CPF and it's contributors.
Sincerely,
- Forrest
