scottpaine_69 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Well my reputation is at a -1 now. I've been here since 2014 when I bought my 3rd Les Paul (I have 5 now) a 2015 Gibson Les Paul Classic which was one from the line everybody Loved ( I know, I'm one of the few who liked the 2015 line)... Anyway! I think it's funny how my rep was neutral until a day ago, which was a few days after I posted about Gibson showing a 2nd Blemished guitar on their site. 1st was the chipped guitar and the 2nd was the 2018 Gibson Les Paul Traditional (Tobacco Burst) with a crack in the back of the head stock. I was simply airing my grievance about posting on the Gibson site about it and then they removed my post 2 days later. I tried posting again only to be denied. I put up the 1st post in Sept. when they posted the pick. I simply stated on the forums that instead of deleting and denying post they could have photo shopped the pic. ( I believed as of 2 days ago they fixed the pic.). Then I made a point of bringing up an article from Gear News about the same photo and Gibson deleting post. Low and behold after being in the forums since 2014 with a neutral rep. I've been busted down to -1... I wonder what our old pal Donny would have thought... For those of you that have been her for a while you know who I'm talking about. We miss you Mr. Craven... lol... Is it Gibson who controls the reputation points or the people. I wonder???

Johnny3j Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Sorry, I couldn't resist this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3THPGl-LC6k Ian I saw Thin Lizzy at Dalymount Park in Dublin in 1977 just after Bad Reputation was recorded, but not yet released. What a pleasure it was to see Robbo & Scott Gorham play live in their heyday...and on Phil's 28th birthday! Have a +1 everyone, in honour of the great band that was Thin Lizzy, long may they be remembered :) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not important to me because I'm not here for a popularity contest. I just thought it was a funny coincidence that after my post on a bad picture that Gibson posted got me a negative reputation..

Johnny3j Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I think it's Scott and Gary Moore in this video, but to be fair he's not bad Ian Yeah, Brian Robertson left the band for good in July of 1978, Gary M then joined for the August/September U.S. tour followed by Australia/NZ in October where that video is from. Incidentally, drummer Brian Downey was also not with the band for the Oz/NZ dates due to "exhaustion, and a lack of interest in seeing a stage again for a while", he was replaced by Mark Nauseef from Ian Gillan's band until December of that year. Lizzy really had started falling apart in 1978. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny3j Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 True. For me After Johnny The Fox it started to tank. Some of Bad Rep, and Black Rose and Chinatown are alright. Nightlife, Fighting, Jailbreak, Johnny The Fox and Bad Reputation do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanHenry Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I saw "Thin Lizzy" a couple of years ago (without Phil of course) and they were not good. They kept showing Phil on a big screen at the back of the stage and the singer kept "paying homage" to him. I found it a little embarrassing. Unfortunately I never saw them with Brian Robertson but I did see them with Snowy White and yes I was thinking they were a bit of a spent force, the energy had gone.

'Scales Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Guess I never offended anybody until I posted about the cracked head stock on Gibsons site.

scottpaine_69 Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 Well yes,...but that would also suggest that no one ever liked anything you posted either...probably best to just ignore these things The only reason I brought it up was because I thought it was funny that after all this time it was a post about an obvious screw up on the web site. I don't cry over such things. I'll still be here when somebody has any questions that I may be able to help with. Although I usually only answer stuff I know about or I send them to somebody I think may have the answer. Oh well! As long as we all have fun....
