My personal theory is that some people enjoy being jerks from behind a keyboard and that these same people would NEVER have the ballz to speak as they do in person. Over the last couple years the tone on Pelican has gone more negative. There are a lot of new people in the hobby and they don't give a s&*t that this is a small and special community of car people. I've met so many people in the years I've been in the hobby (I got my first parts from Pelican way back in the day) who I now call friend that I treasure and appreciate how important it is to treat everyone 'right' b/c how you help and treat a fellow P-car guy will contribute to your reputation, etc.
So in general, I just ignore these rude folks and try and deal with the nice ones. I can't even imagine how tough it is to be a vendor in this community because there are some VERY picky people who are also pretty tight ;-)
thanks Wayne for giving us this great resource.
