He's not under any obligation to help me, no. But I definitely don't appreciate being cockteased like that. It's the equivalent of dangling the carrot in somebody's face, only to swipe it away when they reach for it.
And I don't have any desire to ask the higher ups to delete the thread either.
Well, your post supposedly requested advice and you got it but it seems that you didn't really want it. What you wanted was to complain and to try to ruin his reputation, but it backfired.
Of course when someone initiates this type of public shaming, they have already realized they are probably not going to get what they want because the only way this sort of post would help if is the person was truly unable to follow up for some reason and is also very, very nice. Many or most people would just say "screw that dude" if they were the subject of a post like this, even if they would have responded positively to a PM.
You can't really win with this post because it makes you seem vindictive. Would anyone who reads it want to get involved with any sort of interaction or deal with you in the future? No.
I won't post in this thread again and won't even say "good luck" to you. :afr:
That's mostly speculation on your part.
I was not given any advice on how to proceed from anyone that posted in this thread. All anyone ever told me was that there was nothing I could do (that I hadn't already done).
You're trying to make me out to be some type of monster when all I want was simply what was offered to me (and again, after I helped him). I mention his name because I thought there might be the possibility that someone would say something like "Oh hey, I know him and am friends with him, I'll see if I can get it for you" or something of that nature. If I was trying to attack the poster, my post would have been a lot more mean-spirited then it was. Heck, he can still send me the scene and I can request the entire thread be deleted. All I want is my scene and I'll shut up about it.
He requested help from me. I gave it. He then offered help to me, I accepted, and he clammed up. He won't send. He won't even respond to messages. That's a pretty dink thing to do.
