Condescension (as with many other traits) can be misconstrued online.
It can be considered disrespectful if you are a person that can't take criticism.

Being a blatant ass is considered disrespectful and fortunately I can take criticism. People should respect the differing views of others when they are put calmly, clearly, and with a view to discussion. Which I do my utmost to achieve and always have done.

Do you see me throwing the 1st stone on here? Hardly ever.
Do you see me following forum members to other threads to continue disrespecting them because of the views they have? No.

I have been to Yorkshire and yes it is beautiful, I said I would not go anywhere with TM and TP not up north.

Andy. I'm leaving it at this.

If you had any ounce of respect for me at all you would have contributed something, if that being a tenner, to me and Szymon Nieborak ages ago for all the photos and writing we've done FREE for you.

Fair play my writing might not be that of a journalist but Szymon's photo are incredible and myself and others have taken the hit for getting Szymon to come along so he can provide your magazine with content. Not only is Szymon such a nice guy but he's an incredible photographer. We have supplied you with GOOD if not great content so people buy and read your mag.

And don't for one minute start ranting on about how you make no money from it. I don't wanna hear that crap. We've never asked for £400. These projects/photos/articles don't make them selves Andy.

Sure you might think it's some self imposed goal for me to get Fixeh Famous. Please. Give me a break.

What I've heard in the last week or so is just pure and utter egotistical scrotum wrenching non-sense.

I write because I want to inspire others to ride... and you produce Fixed Gear Mag for what? We see your passion by producing a Death to all roadies T-shirt and a magazine where the contributors practically have to pay you to put there content in???

You can take those 'opportunities' and stick them in the deep deep depths of your own clunge.

You've only spoken to me once on facebook FFS to pester me for the first article I did.

Now then. I wish you all the best in the future Andy but quite frankly I think i'll be okay with out your huge opportunities and ultimately colossal respect.

... And back to slaves
