"disappointed- Rickie
Call me guilty, I try to ignore certain comments, but some get the best of me. There's a number of different marine electronic manufacturers out there. If you don't like one, buy another. I like different features of different products. I buy the one that closes fits my needs. You don't like the donut, buy another product. You don't like planned obsolescence, buy another product. You don't like buttons, buy a touch screen. A manufacturer did you wrong, get over it. Make my product X do what product Y does, get over it. :banghead
Rickie, don't give up. There are a few folks that can get over brand loyalty. I enjoy the discussions and I , like Shellback, like some features of all brands.
Keep posting, Rickie, and I will keep reading and posting a few pictures along the way.
Now, what was the name of that new rod that I wanted?:yikes:yikes
Don't let em get to you Rickie. I appreciate all the info and conversation you post. I learn something every time you post up.
Rickie keep posting! I personally ignore the people your talking about! I try to just sift through for the actual data. I haven't seen a perfect brand yet. They all have pieces that are superior in my mind!
None of the manufs are your best friend. They just want yo money. Their concerns ends at 4pm daily. Just facts, not cynicism.
Rickie, you are one of the main one,s that I rely on ,keep up the good work ,many rely on your knowledge,and thanks.
Just keep doing what your doing.
now I'm getting depressed
Rickie I am not a hummingbird guy but I do read alot of your post and appreciate them. Dont let some get to ya just keep doing what you seem to enjoy, helping others understand and enjoy their investment. I have nothing bad to say about the Birds just prefer another, seems the regular sonar is clearer to me and is all I use. Each of us have needs and should buy the unit that fits our needs the best. The name on the unit really has nothing to do with whether it fits you or not.
remember ........There are those that can not sleep at night unless they strive with others
Ricky, keep up the good work, no matter what units you use and post on. I get so tired of seeing a potentially informative post get taken over by the flamers, but I still wade through all that cr@p hoping to spot a little tidbit that will help me. Guess we need a special mod to monitor this forum and delete all flame posts. Thanks for your help

They'll eventually get the idea that what they say ain't getting under your skin, and they're just flappin their gums for naught.

Myself I thoroughly enjoy your posts, and your falling into there trap they figure the more they beat you up the less information you will put out there. Some just cannot except facts as truth`s. Just ask any woman...ducking for cover after that one.Quote:
