Rob
Why have you not posted the pics of you in the Knightcon men's thongs that you emailed me?
My wife would like for me to have a set!
lol!

Sun Feb 20, 2011 11:30 am

Pointless e-mailing as i e-mailed Rob and recieved NO reply.
i've changed my mind now.
Not very good service at all.

Sorry ..................Kev

Sun Feb 20, 2011 4:54 pm

Kev, not received any emails from you, i will check my spam to see if it has landed there. I would guess that to state "Not very good service" you have emailed me servral times without response? and obviously sent me PM here?? here you?

Rob

Sun Feb 20, 2011 5:45 pm

Rob
I was told by Steve to e-mail your private address which i did.
i also asked Steve for one.
I think it's about three times now. (this board,Steve and yourself = three times.)

(Some don't respond to or like being PM'd)

Sun Feb 20, 2011 5:56 pm

Kev, i found your email (and a few others) in my spam which i appologise for not seeing, to which i have now responded.

and as Steve does not personally order the t-shirts, i would appreciate if dont brand him as you are me with the "Not very good service" Tag

Kev, i appologise for not responding to you "one" email

Rob

Sun Feb 20, 2011 6:22 pm

Rob
I was NOT 'branding Steve' to anything.
You have made that suggestion.

You are now making accusations by highlighting 'one' e-mail
I have made enquiries on this site, also to Steve and you by e-mail.
Over a month later nothing.
So in my opinion a not very good service......(From yourself i might add.)
Maybe your spam filter is too restrictive?
I am a busy guy and i recieve questions for help and advice every day and i respond every day.
My 'spam' is very small ( two or three a day) and every other contact i get, get's through.

Thought i should point this out.
Thanks for your response.
A pity it was'nt sooner.........Kevin

Sun Feb 20, 2011 6:33 pm

kev

i did highlight one email, as you only sent one email.

by the way, thanks for the final nail...

Rob

Sun Feb 20, 2011 7:35 pm

You're welcome.

(Read into it what you like).
Critisism is good it helps us to improve.

Thu Feb 24, 2011 10:07 am

I might be over stepping the line a bit, but Kev - Do one would you!?

Thu Feb 24, 2011 10:12 am

In fact - Hell why not just get right to the point.

Kev - you have stated you 'keep missing these events' which really gives you no right whatsoever to have a dig at Steve, Rob or anyone else that worked their ass off for these shows.

Its ungreatful, moany, crybaby gits like you that have canned the future of Knightcon.

Oh boohoo over a freaking email. Oh and for the record, Rob always replies to PM's on here - yeah maybe you SHOULD have tried PM'ing him.

He said sorry for missing your email - deal with it and move on.

Thu Feb 24, 2011 11:39 am

Wow showing your true colours.
This has NOTHING to do with you does it.
I've noticed too how YOU always make negative remarks about no Knightrider movie ever being made.
Keep your nose out of what does'nt concern you.
With members like you on here, i'm glad now i hav'nt attended any Knightcon event.

Oh and for the record i hav'nt accused,slandered or made comments about Steve on here at all.
In fact the guy responded and gave me Rob's info the next day or so ,so get your facts straight before spouting your venom.
(Can i also recommend anger management).

I'll keep my concerns and comments private from now on.
Seeing how you jump down peoples throats or get involved in messages that don't concern you i suggest you do the same.

My comments were valid , i could afford the items when i asked , i'm unable to now and my e-mail would've remained unoticed if i had'nt made those comments.
I also pointed out Rob's spam filter was probably too restrictive.
I also like the way some 'read other things' into my messages to stir things up here.
Pretty childish.

Anyone else like to take a punch?

.............feel free.

Thu Feb 24, 2011 11:57 am

What was 'pretty childish' was taking a swing at Rob IN PUBLIC in the first place. That should have been sorted between the pair of you, not on here.

BTW - Kiss my ass, I'm so past caring about what you or anyone else thinks about my comments. This crazy community is full of selfish ba*stards more interested in complaining about people actually doing something positive or story telling rather than actually doing something productive themselves. I can count on one hand maybe two that amount of people I've come across actually genuine and decent enough to do some good.

Sugarcoat it all you like - FACT is you had a dig at Rob and he didn't deserve it. I'm shocked he's actually bothered enough to carry on supplying T-Shirts after the way people were during KC!

First things first I'm tired of listening people spatting on KC. The event itself was great! Everyone got signed every single piece they brought with them and for free, you don't get that on some other events. You can only be sorry that you weren't there.

Regarding spam filters I have mine on pretty high level too because there is to much shit on internet and I don't want to catch anything.

And btw thanks Rob for sending me the mug and hoodie all the way to Croatia, they came in one piece. Love them.

Knight2, do yourself a favor and just ignore chris. He's not worth getting into a dispute with.

Sorry you had issues with your KC merchandise from Rob. I think Rob is a great guy with a lot of heart and for whatever faults people had with Knightcon 2010, he still put on a show with Steve Fawcett and created another moment in Knight Rider history.

I know Catherine Hickland, Rebecca Holden, and Michael Scheffe greatly enjoyed their experiences there and that says a lot. I think people like Rob are rare and their passion speaks volumes. Sometimes in that passion, you make choices other people don't exactly agree with but at the end of the day the intention is still something noble and it takes a lot of courage to do what he's done for the fans across the pond.

He will always have my respect for taking those risks. As a vendor myself, I can understand the frustrations with a customer trying to acquire merchandise but if you really want something bad enough, you'll wait out the time it takes to get it. It's unfortunate that you can no longer afford to purchase his fantastic design work, but try to see things from his perspective - he's trying to do the best he can to meet the demands of people who value his products.

He's got a wonderful family and a busy job, - I'm sure he's not intentionally neglecting your needs. Cut him a little slack.

Perhaps instead of publically chastising him for not being there when you needed him for things - you might try asking him to set aside your KC products and maybe be able to work out a layaway of sorts to pay off the costs over time? If you really want to acquire his merchandise, you'll find a compromise.

As they say, "We attract more bees with honey than with vinegar."

That's just my stance on it.

Fri Feb 25, 2011 8:13 am

Wow someone changed their tune!? Fickle to the extreme! Again another classic example of why I dumped this 'hobby'.

Fri Feb 25, 2011 7:29 pm

I think Rob deserves respect for taking risks to keep the spirit of Knight Rider alive. To put yourself into debt for the enjoyment of others is a commendable sacrafice that I know about first hand and can respect.

I think in taking those risks as an event producer, choices were made that I and others didn't necessarily agree with - so no, I have not changed my stance as far as last year's event is concerned.

That was 2010, this is 2011. I'm all about moving forward.

I've always considered Rob O a sharp guy with talent and a lot of heart. The last two days in England spent with him and Steve (as well as Cat, Rebecca, Scheffe, Stuart) were fond memories I will always cherish despite how circumstances or people may choose to change in the future.

I feel the tone taken towards Rob regarding his role as a vendor was inappropriate. I think there are better ways to express a valid concern.

I don't change my tune, I refine it.

Well, my order arrived today, and I'm well chuffed with the T shirt & mug I ordered for myself, and Karen is really pleased with her KC10 "Hoodie" too Very Happy

Mine was also one of those unlucky emails trapped in Rob's Spam filter, but these things happen even to the best of us, and these items were definetly worth the wait.

Thanks again Rob, and remember to put me down for a DVD when you do it.

Cheers,
Tony

Sat Feb 26, 2011 8:53 am

I am waiting with baited breath, as my mother is visiting today and it had been delivered to her house as I am never in.

So I can't wait.

Me too for the DVD Rob.

Thanks Again

Hi Vik
Yes you are probably right and thanks for the diplomacy.
It's just that i enquired way back on October on the board and in January and still recieved no prices or positive response.
I will PM now in the future.
I too think Rob does an awsome job with Knightcon from what i've seen.
I bought the 2010 DVD for which we had to wait for.I waited with everyone else and loved it.
I am busy a lot too and it just 'seemed' that my request was ignored.
i know otherwise now.
Can i suggest too if people have these restrictive SPAM FILTERS they check them frequently?
Also most don't know my private circumstances as to WHY i am unable to attend.
I would appreciate some not seeing that as NOT SUPPORTING Knightcon.
I would if i could.............
Thanks Vik and if i came over in any other way to Rob other than being diplomatic , it was not my intention.

Time to move on.........................Kev

Sat Feb 26, 2011 4:01 pm

Everything arrived today at it's fantastic,

and as an added bonus I am in the crowd, in the picture on the 4th page of the KnightCon guide.

Sat Feb 26, 2011 5:20 pm

Tony, Mike,

Really happy you like your Knightcon Merchandise!! and i hope you like the extra goodies i put in for you both! to help make up for the wait Wink

Rob

Sat Feb 26, 2011 6:07 pm

Yes, I did mate, thanks.

I would have thanked you for those in my previous message, but you told me not to tell anyone about the extras... D'oh, You slipped up lol!

Tony

Sat Feb 26, 2011 7:54 pm

Yes thank you very much.

They are in my Knight Rider display.

Mike

Sat Feb 26, 2011 8:05 pm

Sat Feb 26, 2011 9:03 pm

Hey Scott, the KC mugs are great...

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I now use the AIRFIX mug when I'm making models, and the KC mug when I'm doing Knight Rider stuff lol!

Don't know which one I'm gonna use when I finally get around to building a model of the FLAG semi in 1/25 scale though scratch
