I am presently building a new home office space for my new job, and for the wife's after hours jewelry business. We are truly grateful for the support of those who have been so generous to our cause. I told the boys that they should be able to begin their E-Maxx truck builds next weekend, and everyone is excited.

I might have a few odds and ends around are you missing anything?

We have not started the building process yet, and there is one more box arriving tomorrow. I can only hope that we have everything required, but I will still accept spare parts for their unfortunate breakdowns and such. I will send you a PM Sir, and thank you for your help with this as we appreciate the RCM support from everyone. I had even just purchased all the parts and built up a new tranny for one of them not knowing that we would be doing a Pay it Forward thread so soon. 2009 is going to be a great year.

hey pede your looking at this thread right now, what do u have to say for your self?

[pedeboi364]

ok, im here to clear this up. that should say emaxx tranny. i got it from my uncle who had converted the truck to elec. but didnt like it. he gave it to me cuz he knew i had elec stuff and thot id like to try it. however, i cant afford a big fancy 1/8 elec. setup. my brain was on autopilot when typed it. sry 4 the scare, and im not that kind of person. jerrys case is sitting in my maxx waiting for fridays run

Well if you want to PIF I'll take it...

[_paralyzed_]

Man, I have a t-maxx that could use an alum. tranny. I got and gave one item each from this PIF thread, and now I am just pissed. I avoided it as to not seem greedy.

To say this angers me is an understatement. Not here. Not at RCM. We should start a pedeboi thread to keep the PIF thread pure.

Jerry- I am sorry this happened to you, a good hearted honest gentleman.

Pedeboi- Make this right. Now. We need pics as proof, words don't cut it anymore.

[phildogg]

what about the deans plugs,pigtails ,and series adapters Jerry gave you that were also for sale?
p.s. I agree with Paralyzed we need pics of the full trans with the case sitting beside it.

[pedeboi364]

ok guys, tell me ur munbers and ill txt u pics of the trans in my maxx. the deans fs is all my old messy stuff that im replacing with jerrys. Jerrys stuff is all shrink wrapped and mine isnt cuz im not gr8 with soldering, and i like to run in the wet but h8 down time

[_paralyzed_]

pm'd him my number.

[pedeboi364]

yup, pics will be up soon ya'll. I'm doing my HW do it'll be up at about 6:30

[_paralyzed_]

In my opinion:

1. I'm crippled and I could install a tranny in three hours. Homework or not, it takes seconds to snap a cell phone pic and create proof. He has my number and time to respond on RCM, but no time to snap a pic? Sounds fishy to me.

2. If you are accepting transmissions via pay it forward, you should be giving away any transmissions you have via pay it forward. E-, t-maxx or otherwise. If you have transmissions to sell why ask for handouts?

3. Everybody saw me go to bat for bpp because I felt what happened was wrong, and I turned out to be correct. I'm about what is right, not controversy. This doesn't seem right.

4. We will never be able to know the truth. I gave pedeboi opportunity to clear his name and he chose to do homework. I believe everybody can see this for what it is.

5. the internet isn't nearly as anonymous as it used to be(for average users) and hopefully shady characters will learn to hold themselves to higher standards because of this.

6. this is very rare here on RCM. It is taking much restraint for me to remain positive about this, but this too shall pass.

7. pedeboi thread?

[pedeboi364]

lol, my mom steals my phone while I'm doing HW and gives it back when I'm done... as for here, I popped over to see what's up while looking up the formular for the area of a circle

[JERRY2KONE]

Pedepoi you need to think about how you handle yourself on here and know that we watch out for one another like brothers. This is not a game for a lot of us. This is serious business and take what goes on here very personal. Note that if you get involved in the "PIF" threads you better stay on the up & up and do the right thing. That goes for anyone else who is reading this who may have done something a little shady through the last few weeks on the "PIF" thread. We open our hearts and our collection to give to those who may be in need of a few parts, but just cannot afford to make the purchase on their own. "PIF" is not for you to make a killing on so you can sell our stuff and buy yourself other stuff. Your choice to accept gifts from RCM members, and then post up a huge list of for sale items was surely in bad taste at the very least. If you have done nothing worng, then I apologize, but this just looks all wrong no matter how you try explain it away. We are here to try and help each other out with our problems and not deal with this kind of crap. This is not some playground for kids to do whatever they want. This is a huge very expensive buisness and we take it seriously.

If I see a pic of a t-maxx w/ an aluminum tranny in it, pedeboi's screen name next to it, and the e-maxx aluminum tranny his uncle gave him next to it, I will eat my words.

It is still in poor taste to accept more than you give, when you have alot.
