I'm no psychic here but this is what I foresee:

WOW Mike not only are you a Welder but you are a Psychologist too.
I had NO idea that their was an expiration date on feelings towards a business and/or the service experienced. Just so you know ALL the facts. Ian and I have been going back and forwards about my shit paint job thru the BBB till just about a month ago. So I gave them the chance even after a year to make it right and it wasn't < this is the guy you "Kinda" work for and you are so highly defending.

I probably know Ian longer than you and know the type of person he really is and what he is capable of doing. Well thats of course unless you fixed him with one of your Physiological sessions.

You guy maybe able to erase posts from other forums and make the public thing everything is peachy, but not here brother.

I don't know you but those that do on here seem to like you so I'm going to side with them.

Like you said numerous times "its not your business". Which means you REALLY have no control of the outcome...So if Ian is not telling you EVERY thing you are defending a lie.

I'm going to miss all the threads about their mad tyte HIN showcars.

Should have spent money on a business consultant and not a bunch of cars/bikes (just to brag about them on the internets):

If you guys could have informed us of this before hand, the people who have their shit stuck in the shop right now may have not even taken shit there in the first place.

TR should be helping eachother out.

The same people that came on here and said 'Oh DC is fucking sweet', i think Faded comes to mind first, Kirk worked there and has a huge amount of nutswingers who probably brought their shit there becacuse they love his car.. They are now saying they are not a good shop afterall. These people are looked at as superior on this website, being mods, so I just don't really like that situation.

just my .02
hmm, wonder what ever happened to the "Sponsored by Driven Concepts" banner that was up in the forum topics sections??

that was a paid sponsorship that expired. We mutually agreed to not renew it. Nothing more, nothing less.
