Don't flatter yourself. I've only interacted with you a hand full of times. Such as the thread about the stolen and tortured calf. You know, the one you jumped in and decided to call everyone a hypocrite that eats red meat? Or the multiple times you've called me a wife beater, even though I'm not, nor have ever been, married. You're a troll and everyone knows it.

this is exactly what I found strange as well .. shouldn't he be doing this already ? like every day ?

so what is my going back for a freebie and Beauxnes standing over Willie at the microwave to make sure he keys in "4:00 .. Start" this time going to prove ? if he's using me as a "teaching" experience, then he obviously hasn't paid attention to detail either and is a big part of the problem

bullshite .. it's more than a "handful" of times .. and no, it isn't flattery .. just a fact .. go back and read your own post history if you don't believe me ... i laugh at it because i've never specifically chased people around this board into threads and hijacked them to exact some goofy internet message board revenge ..
the first time i did it was after some other poster with "crimson" in their screen name had just started a thread about beating his wife on the OT .. after you pointed out that it wasn't you, i jokingly did it after that and you even understood it was a joke with
emoticons in your posts ... it was pretty obvious ... then, all of a sudden you decided to be some internet billy mcbadass ..
you do know what a messageboard troll is .. right ?? a troll rarely starts threads, a troll rarely discusses topics .. a troll chases individual posters around the board for either perverted reasons or to just flame them .. i don't do either of those ... out of you and i .. based on what is here in this thread alone .. i wouldn't be throwing the "troll" term around ...

As far as you directing it towards beauxnes vs restaurant owners, here is what happened:
Someone asked you in your opinion what you thought he should have done. You responded with this:
So when you say these guys, are you referring to every other restaurant owner in BR besides Beauxnes?
So you intended it to mean owners in general, not just Beauxnes. I get this. But he is still included in your statement.
LSU fans need to watch the bowl game.
Rag is an LSU fan.
Rag needs to watch the bowl game.
Nobody called you up and said, "Rag, you need to watch the bowl game." But follow the argument, and the same outcome is reached.
I think that is why people are seeing you as coming on here more to call him out and be an instigator, because you simply could have talked to him at the restaurant. Then come on this site and say, "I had a horrible time at such and such location. I talked to the owner after and let him know what happened. I will likely not go to said location anymore. Hopefully by talking to him he will start to change some things."
When you continually keep saying "he needs to do this," "he needs to do that," "he is likely part of a bigger problem," you really expect the person you are talking about to not defend himself/or at least talk about the situation?

Just because he tried to give you some form of repayment, does not mean that he is totally ignoring what goes on in the kitchen. Is he not allowed to take your criticism, try to fix things back in the kitchen by correcting some methods right away (not only when you come in for your free meal), and at the same time offering you some sort of "repayment" ? For some people, a free meal might totally rectify the problem for them.
most loyal customers aren't in it to have their individual situation rectified, but to point out to the owner a problem that they have that needs to be corrected so as to not damage their business in the future with other customers ... in a lot of cases, they have lost that customer anyway ..
quote:So what was your point in coming to this public message board and airing grievances for everyone to hear about, if you simply wanted to point out to the owner a problem? What more could this have possibly accomplished that simply asking for the owner at the restaurant could not have?

just to clarify.. you think Beauxnes
- may be genuine
- may be a smart arse
- may be part of the problem

sorry .. you are going around in circles now and playing semantics for your own benefit now .. if you can't take that comment as a general comment not directed exclusively at beauxnes when i clearly cite an incident completely independent of this thread .. then i don't know what else i can tell you ...
when i say this:
what exactly do you get out of that that doesn't point out to you that i was NOT directly referring to beauxnes in the comment .. especially when i say "beauxnes has never done this on here before" ?
yes, and i stand by the obvious generality that restaurant owners would be best served to stay out of these threads because more times than not i have seen at least three of them -- NOT BEAUXNES -- please note !! -- did far more harm than good in the situation ... i posted my email in this thread to kim jong .. beauxnes is more than welcome to email me there .. any poster i have had terse discussions with on this board that has chosen to email me can attest i answer and we always seem to hash things out ..
i NEVER said i didn't include beauxnes in the generality .. i said i didn't say it directly to and exclusively about him .. come on, man ... get real ..
uhhh .. that is because this is among the many subjects, topics, and uses that this board is for ??? peruse back about 10 pages and get back with me if you find no other threads critiquing restaurants and/or their performances on given evenings or afternoons ..
seriously .. do you know how many people out of say 20 dissatisfied customers EVER comment at the time of a meal to a manager ? maybe 2 or 3 .. the rest just either choose not to come back and tell about 20 of their friends about it ... and exactly where in the thread did i say i didn't mention anything about the cold ribs to anyone at the restaurant last night ??

- may be genuine -- from what i can tell from what i have seen him post on this board, yes, he does SEEM to be genuine.
- may be a smart arse -- no, made a comment that could have been perceived as smart arse .. not everyone that makes a smart arse comment is a smart arse in general, no ... posters such as cash, will cover, and kim jong make valid points that the specific comment in question was probably not intended to be a smart arse one .. but, as a few posters also said, it was a strange comment ..
- may be part of the problem -- any of us that own businesses are part of the problem, part of the solution, part of the success, and part of the failure because the buck generally stops with us ... if my business fails to execute on multiple occassions and it has been brought to my attention, yet it happens again, yes, i am part of the problem .. fair or unfair ..

Well next time you start a thread about a specific restaurant, name the owner in your original post (name screen name, of course), then start saying "he should do this" and "he might be part of the problem," don't expect people to say "O, he surely must not be talking about him."
I understand that you did not say it to him directly. But when you ARE directly talking about him in numerous other posts, then jump to general statements about groups, which he is included in, you can't start backtracking and saying you weren't talking about him.
I also understand that you never did use Beauxnes as an example. I never said you did.
Whether or not others talk to a manager/owner at a bad meal has nothing to do with you. If you have a bad meal, make a decisiono on what you should do about it. But then when you come make a post attacking a restaurant and an owner, who in turn tries to help you out, dont start criticizing him for doing so.
Again, can you explain the point of starting your thread, besides just saying "Well, that is what the board is here for." ? Yes, I know that. Cars are here to drive, but people buy them for numerous reasons.
Whether or not you said it directly, the end result was "Beauxnes should not come into this thread."
For clarification, do you think Beauxnes should have come into this thread and post the few times that he did?

Hopefully you really are a disgruntled customer, and didn't start this thread for "shits and giggles". Cause I don't think Beauxnes sees the humor in it.

i personally think it is not a good idea for any restaurant owner to get in these threads .. no .. but that is my opinion ... like i said, i have just seen it go wrong too many times for the owner ... also, as i said earlier, there is that delicate line between advertising and not advertising ...

i am going to go ahead and guess she was not referring to beauxnes .. but a few others, present company included .. but that is because i have this strange skill called deduction that i picked up on in middle school ..
