KJC is shortly going to have a new home, at http://www.kjc-corporation.com. We are slowly switching over to our new host, as part of our new company revamp, and WILL NO LONGER BE PART OF SILLYDOG. All customers must use our current forum, at http://kjcomputers.serveftp.net/forum

It has come to our attention that more of our customers are coming here, and this was not expected, so we are using our company forum only, as we have no control over SillyDog.

Thankyou for your attention.

That, my friend, is one of our offices, NOT A SHOP! It's actually my friend Greg's house, he's our web designer, we use it as a base for admin stuff, and it's where our server is currently. He registered the domain for us, he's the web guy

You can use this address to drop your Tiny laptop off to, if you get a new one, and know where Whitefield is.

Antony, take this bastard Cautioned badge off me, it doesn't look good to customers!

I mean it, do it, NOW! KJC's Director says so!

You're lucky he hasn't given you a Cautioned X2 label. I probably would have.

This whole thing is bizarre. Tidus, you use a somewhat sexually provocative avatar (after all... you are a male, correct?) and you make some inappropriate comments relating to sexual preference and still have the nerve to insist he remove the Caution note from your name? Why should he do that... because you apologized? Maybe you have to earn that right and this can only come after a period of time. Commanding someone to do something generally does not bring results. Just a passing observation.

Yes, i am a guy. I don't see anything wrong with my avatar, there's nothing provocative about it at all. At least it's better than Tweety Pie! You big girl!

and you make some inappropriate comments relating to sexual preference and still have the nerve to insist he remove the Caution note from your name? Why should he do that... because you apologized?

Yes, i apologized, and he's nitpicked my apology, like a cocky smug little bastard, and refused to accept it. He knows KJC is a company, and having one of his silly little badges to make me look bad in front of my customers is his way of laughing at me, the little ar#ehole.

Maybe you have to earn that right and this can only come after a period of time. Commanding someone to do something generally does not bring results. Just a passing observation.

Until i ask you, sunshine, keep your passing observations to yourself. You have never ever taken part in my threads, nor even welcomed me to SillyDog, so, your opinion, is not accepted. You have only posted to take the piss. So piss right off yourself. And i don't care how old you are, i say what i think. And if you don't like it, as i say to Antony......it's just tough! I don't care!

I said something out of line, and apologized. He refused it, so as far as i'm concerned, he can take a run.....off a cliff somewhere.

Fine. But just another small observation if I might.

For someone who claims to be a CEO in a company (on which I'm hard-pressed to get a handle), your language and behavior seems inappropriate. In short, I'm beginning to have a hard time believing who you claim to be.

Nevertheless, I don't care for your tone and therefore I'm disengaging myself from any further discussion with you. I've been a member here on SillyDog701 far longer than you and I've appreciated the help this community has offered me, the camaraderie and the leadership that Antony has provided over the years. You've done little but nit-pick, complain and make rather outrageous claims. In short, I no longer completely trust you.

Good-bye.

Tidus, your continued use of profanity and continued personal attacks against forum members here cannot be tolerated. I must warn you that if this continues you could face severe disciplinary actions, possibly even a permanent removal of your access to the SD701 Message Centre.

That's fair enough. I was out of line, and i shouldn't have been. That row was between myself and Antony, and had nothing to do with James, but he still stuck his nose in.

From now on, i will be communicating with customers only, and with NO other members of SillyDog.

And, James, for the record, as Antony likes to say, even though no one ever keeps the record, i am not CEO any more. You cannot say i have not maintained a professional and friendly attitude towards my customers, because i have, and unlike you guys, i am not here for leisure, i help people here as part of my job, and now Antony has blown our argument out of proportion, and everyone seems to be getting involved, and it is affecting my professional image.

I know i've been using profanity, but i work hard, and have had a bad few days, and have been rather pissed off, and then i come home to these silly arguments. I don't need them, and wish i hadn't said anything about Antony's obsessions now. There were a few niggles about him that got on my nerves, i felt i had to say something, and look where it got me.

I overreacted, and am sorry for any trouble, it wasn't meant to get this bad. I should have took it up with him in a PM, privately, i wasn't thinking straight!

Sorry everyone, James, Antony, Mandrake. I really am. You don't have to accept my apology, but i am sincerely sorry, i have a habit of flying off at things that i shouldn't.

Wrong. When you post on this public forum we ALL have a right to express our opinions. If you wanted it kept between you and Antony, you should have pm'd Antony and kept it just that: private.

And, James, for the record, as Antony likes to say, even though no one ever keeps the record, i am not CEO any more. You cannot say i have not maintained a professional and friendly attitude towards my customers, because i have, and unlike you guys, i am not here for leisure, i help people here as part of my job, and now Antony has blown our argument out of proportion, and everyone seems to be getting involved, and it is affecting my professional image.

I have not said this so please do not put words in my mouth. I've said your behavior on THIS BOARD was inappropriate and I've every right to express that opinion. Additionally, who says we are all here for leisure? Many members come here to sort out problems with their operating systems, browsers, email clients and so forth. It's a mixed bag as it were. Antony has not blown anything out of proportion and continuing to harp on this makes your apology meaningless. In fact, it seriously jeopardizes your so-called "professional image".

I know i've been using profanity, but i work hard, and have had a bad few days, and have been rather pissed off, and then i come home to these silly arguments. I don't need them, and wish i hadn't said anything about Antony's obsessions now. There were a few niggles about him that got on my nerves, i felt i had to say something, and look where it got me.

Stop making excuses and be man enough to own up to your inadequacies. Few of us see the obsessions you see. All I can see right now is your inability to deal with being called on the carpet for your ill-behavior.

Sorry everyone, James, Antony, Mandrake. I really am. You don't have to accept my apology, but i am sincerely sorry, i have a habit of flying off at things that i shouldn't.

Had you only included this last paragraph rather than the preceding, your apology might have been more effective. As it now stands, it seems to me to be entirely insincere.

I've a suggestion for you. You need to seek some counsel in anger management. I'm not trying to be offensive or insulting but helpful in this. If you don't learn to curb your "flying off the handle" and "speaking your mind", you're going to find life to be very hard on you.

James, you've just said what a few people have said. I do need anger management, i know i have had a history in overreacting. I'm not arrogant, or at least i try not to be, i have been trying my hardest to control it. I've had a few people i held close and trusted let me down in a bad way recently, and my personal life has affected my work, and things have become stressful, and i've taken it out on the wrong people.

I really am sorry. Now that i've read through what i've been saying, i am shocked. I have calmed down a bit tonight, and have realised how stupid and unprofessional my attitude has been over this past week.

Please accept my apology, all of you, i can't begin to tell you how awful i feel. It's going to take a while for you all to begin to trust me again, i know, but i'm willing and ready to make it up to you all.

I promise you, this will never happen again. I will work as hard as i can to gain your trust.

I admit, my job is very stressful at times, i get awkward customers all the time, but i don't fly off at them, i keep it inside. But my temper gets the better of me, and i end up releasing the stress at others, who i shouldn't.

I am deeply sorry, and will use my brain in future, before opening my mouth.

Heck, i've got another telling off coming, once Rikku sees what's been going on, she's going to go spare at me, for my silly unprofessional attitude. I may even lose my job, and it is my own silly fault!
