Thread: Brand new an have a strop/hone question.

I thought I had acted as a quest! I was polite an thanked everyone for their reply up until I was insulted by an admin for no reason whatsoever ( an admin who should be held to a higher standard than the rest because he is an admin!!!) insinuating I was stupid an didn't get the answers I needed or wanted when in all actuality I had how was he to know what I had gotten?!

My attitude changed for this reason an this reason alone being a quest in someone's house doesn't mean putting up with being treated as a second class citizen!!!!

And with that it is like you are guest's in Lynn's house & Gugi was appointed by someone above him or by Lynn & has the qualifications to be an administrator. Gigi was trying to explain to you to at least try & did so previously so if you don't at least try someone else's advice, it might not work out for you as you expect it to so if you don't at least TRY, then how do you know whether or not it will work? It is a privelege to be a member here & the proper respect needs to be shown instead of acting immature, especially since the help has been attempted by Gugi on several occasions & he has tried to be patient in this situation. If you want help here, please show consideration & respect & you will get the help & knowledge you need.

You're right I asked for help an he offered it, but he also got angry when I told him that I had recieved the answers I was looking for an insulted me an my intelligence without being provoked in my opinion! So please explain to me what I did wrong to provoke this kind of treatment! I also feel that he insulted me In His very first post to me in which he mentioned " spoon feeding " as though I am an invulid or child! This was uncalled for!!!!!

That being said Zemke stated this. " an most know how to be a proper host, in post #16&18 Gugi has failed as a host seeing this happen again I'll go back to lurking" this quote leads me to believe this is not the first time that Gugi or another admin has treated a guest in this manner! An that is sad! What is also sad, is that you all condone his behavior an shun mine as though I am supposed to put up with this treatment simply because I am a new member or because he is an admin! If being in charge gives people that right, then we should just blindly follow the government an throw away the constitution and amendments!! Like I stated before! "totalitarian society" All hail the new world order!!!

Oh, please, you still at trolling and now you are escalating your lies? There is a saying when you are in a hole one thing you do is stop digging.

Let me put the record straight. Before I posted one word in this thread you had already shown you're here to provoke and to lie.

I understand what you've said an I would just prefer to be blocked from your sight!!

..........

That being said this may very well be a family sight, I for one don't see how as adults shave an any minor who may shave is a teen an is most likely a bit immature an wouldn't care about a few 4 letter words as for the adults they are adults they've heard these words before an have most likely used them an if offended should act like adults not cry like children!!

It's sad to live in a world where everyone is offended by everything an no one can say anything for fear that the will upset someone who acts like a toddler whining an crying about everything That's being said that they don't personally like/believe in block me like I asked or don't I will not be censored in any form of the word!!!!!! An saying that people can't use 4 letter words for fear that the will upset a child is censorship!!!!!!!!!!

You were given the benefit of the doubt of making a 'mistake' as you like to call them. But instead of accepting that you need to watch your language, something you already agreed to when you registered, you chose to lecture us on censorship and justify yourself for continuing to use offensive language?
Nobody mentioned anything about banning, but your first word is to ask for it?

To continue with the guest analogy, when decent people get themselves into a venue not to their liking they turn around and get out of the door. When somebody keeps challenging the bouncers to throw them out it means they have come to make a scene.

And right after that PM you went back on posting here and telling people they're 'thinking one-directional'. In context with your past posts and your exchange with the staff, that's trolling.

I didn't ban you outright and instead decided to engage you a bit further on the matter you claim you're here for and your choices in that tell the story and confirm my suspicions.

Lastly, I didn't imply you were stupid, at most that you are lazy for refusing to put in any work yourself. However you seem to have a sore spot about it for some reason because you keep bringing it up.

If you think your posts might cause people to think you are stupid, you should reconsider what and how you post.

Yes, Birnando is right & when you said this in your post 13, "it seems that you all think a bit one directional. Now the reason I say this is you all assume that I mean to strop the same direction as I hone I am a little smarter than a cave man", that was a bit of sarcasm so Gugi responded appropriately. You don't think an administrator is going to take that on here do you? Rather than taking it like a man, you seem to be a bit foul mouthed & want to argue also & now that Birnando has stepped in, I will go about my own business. I am not any type of administrator or moderator on here so I will move on, I have better things to do.
Happy New Years everyone!

In an attempt to bring this back on topic, if one remains, I will make the following suggestion.

Do a search of threads on "back honing." That will give you a lot more to consider, as this, like many subjects here, has been discussed many times before.

The third post in THIS thread seemed like a very good explanation:

I'm not a pro at honing what so ever, but my brother-in-law is a metallurgist at Northern Illinois University and I've posed a few questions to him that pertain to honing and steel make up. One of our conversations had to do with something of this nature. He said basically if you are drawing an abrasive plane across a piece of metal that the bur will always form if two planes of surface form a point and the abrasion is being pulled away from the point (in a back hone stroke). What he said is happening is the material from the thicker side of the plane is sliding across the stone toward the thinner point and forcing it upward. When you give it a traditional honing stroke you force it back onto it self and actually make more work for yourself. What would happen is if you kept the blade on the same side or flipped it you would be leaving bigger pieces of metal on the stone that could damage the blade and the nature of cutting the bur off can serrate the edge ever so slightly. Kind of like when you bend a piece of sheet metal repeatedly and it snaps. It never breaks off smoothly, its always jagged. Then he said that if the stone were course enough that you might not even know it happened but on a high grit stone you might be scoring it, because the high grit stone particles are so much smaller than lower grit stones they wont take the bur off as quickly, and these score lines would result in raised areas in the blade which would cause further damage to the stone. One thing he said is this is all relative to the type and hardness of the metal.
