JohnnyBlaze Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 I've met Hatchet Pete. He's a legend.Met the banned Cozy Toes/NikkiSlikk at a couple of gigs and occasional poster Slim.I bet Cozy isn't even 10% the bastard that he was on here. Nick's a good guy.I don't doubt it. But he was highly successful at being a bastard on here.I wouldn't doubt it either. All we had to go on was how he treated people here, and regardless of the different monikers he was using that aspect was always consistent. One thing is clear, some of the closest friends I've made from the board started out at odds with me because of their ability to rattle the cage. No one should judge a person based on how they're perceived online.Yeah, for the most part, I can agree with that. It's also why I first said "...isn't even 10%...". But on the other hand, if someone represents themselves in a certain way, what other conclusion can readers come to? Agreed. I've never understood how or why if is that people 'present' themselves as a certain kind of personality if that's not really how they are. Just...be who you are. Right? Agreed. I'd like to think that I'm no different on this board than I am in real life. I'm sure TX_Rush, WCM, or LiX can confirm that. Well, not LiX. He's a lying bastard.

OldRUSHfan Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I've met Hatchet Pete. He's a legend.Met the banned Cozy Toes/NikkiSlikk at a couple of gigs and occasional poster Slim. Hatchet Pete? Sounds like he was born to be a TRFer. My kind of guy! Not if he's the only 'Pete' I've ever known from Message boards, A teacher from NYC, who was banned from CP once or twice after making 'sock-puppets' and rejoining....as for Slim and NikkiSlikk, they're both harmless! They are long standing members at CP and wouldn't be if they were any trouble....trust me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldRUSHfan Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 oh, and even though I've found out about a few TRFers that live close, haven't met any yet. That WILL change after the snow leaves for good! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMCXII Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I met one girl off here at a rush show and introduced myself.. she had no interest in chatting at all though and seemed a bit of a princess lol. I also met pixie at a vancouver show years back which was nice and I remember meeting snowdog2112 and his son at the Edmonton show Rushtour banner pre-show meet up.
