Last year on the Two Gringos site an agency owner gave his opinion of the men that were coming to use his agency. As I remember, he did not give such a rosey review for the men that were coming down.  I believe he said only 30 to 40 percent were nice and respectful.  He even gave an account were he had to punch a guy because he was grabbing a girl ass on the first date!  

I wanted to get your opinion on the types of gringos you see and please highlight anything that should be corrected.

I'm sure your response will be very enlightening!! Also will help a few too!

Tommy,

Welcome to the board.  Maybe since you are new to the board you haven't read much of the history.  In any event, to my way of thinking, Jamie's comments would have just the opposite effect.  IMO he has come across as taking the higher road plus his rebuttals to the naysayers who threw the first stones were brilliant.  What would you recommend if someone was attacking you and your business from those that know nothing about it?

I’m sorry Jamie, but your post sounded just like something you would expect from a “…classless provoker with limited intelligence”. To me it came across as just another cheap flame post from someone trying to provoke another fight. Are you sure that YOU aren’t using this forum as YOUR “playground”?

Take a break and relax… :-)

"Take a break and relax… :-)"

Probably very good advice.  I will say that I read every post the last several days and my opinion is that Jaime has shown more restraint in his postings than those taking jabs at him.   His detracters comments, have a bit more edge and bite to them IMO.   It takes two to tango for sure but it's not just Jaime who is continuing this in new threads.  Anyway, these threads are TAME compared to the good old days.  Guys would jump all over each other for the slightest of offenses.  Some of our most respected members here were quite good at going sideways down the page. lol

Ray if you look you will see in every case all attacks were initiated by others. I don’t consider it another fight but the same fight. Heat is nothing more than an inane bully and some of his followers are not much better.
But you are right I am playing around too much I got carried away squishing him.

Thanks for the input.

Ray , I have to agree with you . Jamie remarks on writing abook on every subject and quoting on every thing ....Like is trying to be the " ANN LANDERS " of latin dating agency  . It is just getting very old ............

Actually I find it rather amusing to read the discussions that involve Jamie and those few “classless provokers with limited intelligence”.   Ray made the comment that it came across as a “cheap flame post from someone trying to provoke another fight” but I respectfully disagree.  How else could you define a poster(s) who knows nothing about Jamie or his business yet continues to make biased and unsubstantiated derogatory comments, who won’t respond to him other than continued name calling?  

Not only have these recent hecklers not met Jamie or used his services, but we have at least three posters that have who recommended him and his agency.  This small group of critics does not want to recognize this which makes me believe that their disdain is more motivated from getting trounced in their sparring attempts.

I don’t know about you, but if my reputation and business were slandered by such unknowledgeable critics I would respond the same, rather than run for cover.  It’s humorous when the schoolyard bully picks on the wrong person and after the confrontation comes away with the only black eye yet keeps coming back for more.

Hi Pablo,

I thought my comments were self-explanatory, but let me explain further why I used the comment “just another cheap flame post from someone trying to provoke another fight”.

I didn’t say anything while Jamie and others were having a little war down below in another thread and I wouldn’t have said anything if he had kept it there. And I don’t begrudge anyone the opportunity to defend himself. However, he chose to post an obvious flame message in another totally unrelated thread, which only served to expand the flame war and provoke more clutter. Because he did this while at the same time complaining about the forum and the flaming by “classless provokers” that goes on here, I guess I just found that to be a little hypocritical.

Why not give the poor moderators a break and keep the flames in one thread so he doesn’t have to delete half the page to clean up :-)

Peace,

Ray

I would try and be a little more open minded.  Many women have no problem with it.  To each his own.
