He was in a hurry for a post I made there of NS Victoria... For several
days there were requests about a post/flood, so I completed his set 38
(I think), sent to him a couple of fills and waited for an answer. I had
it: many thanks for the fills, I was unaware of them. I answered: YAW, it
can happens when someone doesn't post a gallery for a while... (LOL), and
I started looking around for the set 150 he only miss to *complete his
collection*. It took five days but I found it, so I posted it in newstar
saying in the subject just "newstar your missing set 150". And I started
waiting... Obviously I was hoping (me and others) on a full post of the
collection now complete, but I never clearly asked for it, just I made
the above... pressure on him (by completing is collection!).
At that point I was conscious that him, for unknown reasons, was not
happy to post his collection and I was curious to see his further actions.
The situation was very embarrassing to him, I thought.
Well, nothing. I waited for an answer for some days but nothing. He got from
me a lot of fills, with set 150 he completed his collection then... he
completely disappeared!
At that point I was very angry - as a poster I am a newby, my English has
many... lacunae in the grammar part, and I didn't understood what happened,
so I wrote a message to YAB were I have some friends saying - more or less -
that his behaviour was really unfair and that he is a *coward*. Then I gone
back to the newstar NG and I posted all WIH about NS Victoria, both to
fulfill the numberous requests there and to forget the whole thing. In my
message to YAB I wrote "You won, I loosed"...
After my post there all people that was waiting thanked me. It was at this
point that he grabbed the Ducky post and reposted there saying "now that
thats finished". He (it?) was speaking about my post... posing that it was
an annoying one.
This is the full story, in an home-made English, hope you understood it.
After Ducky intervention he is now like a child who regressed to childhood,
very pathetic indeed. I have something more of Victoria, Unfinished Sweet
posted to me, but more important I feel good now, that guy was unveiled.
Ducky, with your intervention you gave me one of the greatest satisfactions
in my life :-)
