I would like to sincerely apologize to Greg, Loudoo, Coastiejoe, and Dr. Honda and anyone else offended by this whole mess.

My name is Gene, my brother and myself posted here sometimes under thor409 since that was an account that we shared here. About 6 months ago my brother came to live with me, I was raised by grandmother and he was raised by my mother. We hadn't seen each other in years, so when i was asked to help him, i jumped at the chance to have a brother, and at first all was well.

But all was not well with my brother and soon we started to see problems with moods, problems getting along with people, and exploding over things that we considered insignificant. That behavior spilled into my life. I was naive and thinking that i wanted him to feel trusted and at home, you know part of the family i trusted him with my computers, opened emails so we could share on forums, joined forums together etc. I bought a jetski thinking that it would be cool to rebuild it and work on it, go to the beach together and play, hey i had another brother and i wanted to know him. It turned out to be a nightmare and painful.

I am here because of what happened here on a thread and in another forum where my brother wrote a whole thread insulting seadooforum.com because he wanted his part of the money that he had paid for the membership. I tried to cover for my brother but it just got to be too much. I was apologizing constantly, it was embarrassing and humiliating and there were times when i just simply had to lied because the situations were incredible and difficult to deal with, intense. I never got to read the exchanges that took place with Loudoo and Coastiejoe and Dr. Honda, i got pieces from my wife, and pieces from another member here whom i am not going to mention out of respect and decorum.
But i was told that it was bad.

He even got into problems with minnetonka4me because he was not happy with the prices that Nick had charged us for the carb kits. I checked the prices myself, i asked around, but i was stupid, a doormat, everybody took advantage of me and on and on the accusations went on. So he took the carb kits and asked around and someone told him a price that was way lower than what Nick had charged us and WW3 went off. The bottom line was that he made a mistake in how he asked for the prices. It took an act of congress to explain to him that the parts were OEM and what he had asked was for aftermarket parts and the prices were very different. But it was never ending, everybody was a thieve, everybody was trying to rip us off, everybody was lying and everybody was bad and that kind of behavior tends to turn into a self fullfilling prophesy and it did. Nick prices were fine, i priced a carb kit Mikuni at 53 bucks and Nick sold it to me for 50 shipped and i thought that was fair, all the prices were very fair. But by the time my brother was done with Nick, he had even placed a hold on money owed to Nick on Paypal and i had to go into my paypal account and call paypal personally and tell them to ignore the hold and allowed Nick to have his money. I couldn't believe it, and to Nick bro, i am sorry and embarrased and sad that you were treated like that after all the info you were giving us. I am truly sorry Nick!

At pwctoday.com i had to ask them to please take down that awful thread about seadooforum.com and thank god that they did.

I want to say here that iam very sorry for the insults, threats, and the disrespect that my brother showed the administrators here.

This last weekend the shit hit the fan and i was sick and tired of the whole situation and it came to a head and my brother was removed from my house and he is living with another brother now. I have changed all the passwords and even changed emails because i am embarrassed and i feel bad.

I want to apologize to everyone for what happened, i am very sorry, because i like people and i don't like confrontation and strife and i like to be liked and have fun.

Please accept my most sincere apologies and i hope that i can be part of this great community and i can prove to everyone that i am not my brother, not even in the least.

Sincerely
Gene

We all get screwed over bad at least once by trying to be generous and trusting. Good to hear you have shed the load, keep on trucking forward.

Hey Rod, Thanks! This was like a shovel to the head! But i think i am going to keep on sedooing:cheers: Take care and have a great weekend!!! :cheers:
 
Lifes hard and lifes harder with family issues like that. Keep your head up and keep on trucking... or dooing in this case
 
The reason I haven't responded is this has pretty much been handled through PM's. Gene is a really good guy who got put in a bad situation through no fault of his own. I know I sometimes maybe many times get into trouble just speaking out of turn by myself, so I can imagine when others speak for you it just compounds the problem.

I do accept Gene's sincere apology and as I told him in the PM's Tony (Dr Honda), erased the bad posts in the thread, mine included, so lets just move on and pretend it didn't happen. Forgive and forget on both sides, I think I speak for everyone involved.

Thanks Nike1200, i am 56 years old, also an Army Veteran, and i can tell you that nothing hurts like family and nothing hurts you like family can.

But, i did my best and i sleep on that. Some people just can be help because they wrap their life around your neck and take you down with them.

Thanks buddy! I hope that you are having a seadoo wonderful day. Thanks!!:cheers:
 
Like Lou, I didn't reply to this post as contact was made via PM's and all is good. Just didn't want you to feel I was ignoring this post

Thank you.

Thank you LouDoo! But according to my wife and other members who brought me up to date as to what was said, you did nothing wrong LouDoo! Come on, to go on a rant, insulting everybody and making enemies over being told that perhaps it was cheaper to buy one than to fix it? That's ridiculous, my brother is just a rude asshole who can't get along with anyone and that's the problem in his life. You didn't speak out of turn, you just posted your opinion and anyone else would not see a problem with that. I would had said, hey, you are right but i did it because i thought i wanted to see if it worked and if i could do it, but you are right it is much easier to just buy one, i agree with you and i would had left it at that.

I can not apologized enough for all the craziness of my brother, and i am sorry to be in this position myself, embarrassed and humiliated. Just crazy!

I have never felt so used and manipulated!

Thank you LouDoo, thank you, you did nothing wrong! but thank you for being so understanding and i certainly appreciated it.:cheers:

Thank you Coastiejoe, I appreciate it very much. Thank you very much. I don't believe i have had to apologized so much in my entire life! But, please accept my most sincere apologies! Thank you very much!!:cheers:
 
Let's hope when your brother logs in here and elsewhere under another account that admin can contain the poison without too much trouble.

He has no jetski and he is far from me. No jetski=no reason to come here and afterall the crap, i am sorry, but we are not in talking terms.

"Some people you just can't reach" A line said in the movie; Cool hand Luke. :cheers:
 
Hope he doesn't show up just to rebuke your public claims.

In that case i will let the community deal with him and i am sure the administrators will certainly deal with him and i hope they block him from coming here and bringing his negative self around. I almost doused the GTX with gas and burned it to the ground, such was the pain in this situation.

Anyways, i hope that you are having a wonderful seadoo day!!:cheers: Time to go and work on the seadoo, i am not as good mechanically, but i am doing this, i am getting it started! :willy_nilly:

I just wanted to say thank you very much for your concerns and responses. Indeed you are all a bunch of good guys, thank you. :cheers:
 
Hi Gene,

Since I'm married to a Catholic I know all about guilt, and I think there's plenty to go around, so since this is your thread, and if you have no objections I think it best to close it. If you would like it re-opened PM me and I will gladly do it.

I just think it's time to move on.

Lou
