I'm doubting its him, if so we may see permaban soon. but regardless, I just figured out that it got a plug for that pathetic website.

I know he and Sapper have gotten into it on several occasions and Sapper is the one who usually bans him, IIRC. If it's really him, he's received more second chances than Darryl Strawberry, Lawrence Taylor, Dwight Gooden, John Daly and Dennis Rodman put together.

Yeah... but is a plug for a pathetic website really worth anything? I mean, are any of us gonna suggest that someone actually hire him based on what we've seen? :screwloose:

^^^ I think you are right TxengrChick

Besides you point out correctly that the website really speaks for itself - both in the layout and 'offerings'. And if that wasn't bad enough there is that very unflattering poster of the guy floating around the internet. It is hard to offset bad PR like that.

Until you have your own website for a burgeoning private practice, it's not appropriate for you to comment about ours. While we admit it's still a work in progress, your comment is obviously made out of jealousy.

While we're at it, let's outlaw alcohol because some people who are stressed and depressed and tired, who would normally not drink and drive other than the destress period of the few days after the exam...
Oh, sorry, wrong topic.

LOL. Chill out. Using your logic, why even outlaw drinking and driving? Just wait until they kill someone, then arrest them for murder? Think before you post dude. I'm glad you decided to become an engineer and not a politician!

Or pity.

^^^ I feel like there should be a big bouncey smiley face rolling back prices like the one at Walmart.
Yeah .. I can see it now ...

Okay, okay...where is my reference. I might have to call the plagarism police!

Dude, my post was tongue-in-cheek and related to another thread that maybe you missed. It wasn't nice of you to accuse me of not thinking. And, no... you can't make me turn this thread off-topic. Unh-uh!

Even worse is once you sit through the intro and get the stupid "McKeon Engineering" following your pointer... I wonder if he actually gets any business off from that site? Most people I know who are looking for engineering services are looking for a professional webpage... not something that has a bunch of cutesy bells and whistles. Oh well, not my problem

That cursor thing is annoying, it gave me a headache just watching it!

Back to the original question: I would just do would you have always done and shut it down for a few days, maybe the weekend. Idiots will be idiots - can't do anything about it.

Then - too much TMcK talk -- making my head hurt

 

[jfusilloPE]

I agree with shutting it down for a few days like the other times. This will give me a chance to do some yard work over the weekend instead of spam eb.com

That's not totally true! I think most of us can tell a decent website when we see one, and for the record, I don't really care how great an engineer you think you are, unless you're capable of working well with others, you will never be able to achieve much success in this business, and from the attitude I read from most of your posts, you probably don't work very well with other's.

BTW....what was the original topic about?

 

[NCcarguy]

oh yea....shutting the site down.

Keep that to a minimum, it's like the Darwin awards......sometimes there are ways to eliminate the dumb ones!

That's a very good point. I run across a few people who believe they ARE the one man show. I have always found a little humility and a little humor go a lot further than casting aspersions.

I have always suspected Big Daddy T'Mack never grew out of the "doesn't play well with others" designation.
