I guess you're not much on reading comprehension yourself, since Skelso made it clear he did this professionally when he wrote "If you called that many shops in Texas and none offered maroon, perhaps that will help others understand why those of us that do keep the mix to ourselves."1990AG said:
I guess you're not much on reading comprehension. Go back and read the first sentence you quoted of mine above.

Hard to tell if serious....
No way he's serious right? If so, wow
He's a pro.
Like i said originally. If he's a pro and wants to protect it, so be it. I don't quarrel with that.
After today, I wish I wouldn't have asked the question

He has also gave way more advice than almost anyone else would in his position. Eyeguy even chimed in and said the same. Noticeable he is also a professional and did not provide anything additional. ( I dont blame him.) I think it is funny how you pick and choose who you attack. People like you are the reason most of the good advice has left the board and now you get a crap load of bad information and no one to call it out.
Same people that think they should be paid to hunt hogs on someone else's land.
Partner. You are a new level of stupid.

Would you like to expand on that? I would appreciate the education.
No beans!!!
Apologies for the attack. You caught me at the height of Aggie basketball angst.CTGilley said:1990AG said:

However, I don't think I can make it any more clear.
I stated very succinctly above that if he's a pro and wants to protect it, so be it. I don't quarrel with that.
There is no reason for you to say that I am the reason most good advice has left the internet or that I think I should be paid to hunt hogs on someone else's land. {this was what caused me to say you were stupid}. You might also check your grammar, but I'm not an English teacher.
Again...apologies for calling you stupid.
This has been a fun blast from the past...
If you use the search feature you will find I used to offer a lot of help, discounts, etc to folks in here. That dropped off some years ago. Your specific post is not the reason I quit offering so much help to people in here. That would mean I care far more about what you think that I actually do. However, the repetative entitlement similar to your post is what broke me. You, nor anyone else, is entitled to anything I've worked to achieve without an exchange of compensation.
While you are searching, you will find that I ran an outfitter business for many years as well. My bread and butter was thermal and night vision pig and predator hunts. Several people over the years offered to "do me a favor" and come shoot them for free or bashed me for charging a fee, or stated I should be paying the hunters...
So, nope - Gilley is not stupid, he's just one of us that knows the history around this place and doesn't like what it's become.

I agree with you....I cannot for the life of me understand how you guys cannot understand
- if he's a pro and wants to protect it, so be it. I don't quarrel with that.
Kelso... I don't know you. I didn't search before I made the very mundane original post ages ago. You say above you don't care what I think. Super! You and some others obviously have a bone to pick with some on the OB. I'm just not one of them.
It has been established that I am a professional coater so you can drop the IF. The line you keep referring to proves my point about entitlement. The rest of that original reply basically says if I wasn't a pro, I should give my info out to the masses. Funny thing to me is you have no idea what you are talking about. As I stated previously, the paint mix is a fraction of tbe battle. There's a lot more that goes into the final outcome.
I don't have a bone to pick with this place. Just certain people in here who have taken advantage of my generosity over the years and people like YOU who feel they are entitled to what I have.

Skelso clearly said he was a professional. If you had lurked on this board for any length of time, you would have known that he is an FFL that has helped many on this board in numerous ways.
Instead of being grateful for the headstart he gave you, you bagged on him for not giving you the full recipe that he worked hard to perfect. He didn't have to give you the information he did give you. He certainly didn't deserve your response.
Posters with your attitude have certainly ran off a lot of great posters. There are many that either rarely or no longer post that I wish I heard more from.
Edit: autocorrect changed headstart to headscarf and Skelso to Skelton
I'm not going to spend much more time on this...but if you guys will set the torches and pitchforks down for a minute....
You guys can take whatever away from that you want to, but those are the facts and this is the last I'll post on it....while shaking my head....
- I've been on TA for almost 20 years...16% of my time is on the OB
- I don't know Kelso and he doesn't know me
- I did NOT know he was a pro. That was clear in my initial post
- I have never asked for, nor received anything from Keslo. Not sure what a headscarf is
- I did not bag on him for not giving the full recipe.
- I never said(nor insinuated) I, nor anyone else, was entitled to anything
- I completely agree with him not giving it out as he developed it to sell

If you are a pro and selling your mix, I get that you don't give it away.
If not, I can't think of a more miserable stance than you needing everyone else to have to go through the grief just because you did.
You didn't ask for my color mix but you sure as hell dogged on the fact I didn't give out a formula. The above should help you remember.
No pichforks and torches here, just separating fact from fiction.
edit: correct bold so you don't get lost...
