Zach just got out of the USMC and started with us at Phoenix Weaponry a couple weeks ago. I introduced him to this forum only a few days ago. You'll see more of his posts soon.
Agree with you on the first part. He should have identified himself as being with PW, before pitching that line.
I "Believe" being an IP gets them access to the TP, since they cannot sell something w/out it.. However there are PW members who have been here longer than Zach and could contribute that info, and participate in the forums other than IP, as others do. Not making it a sales pitch.
The Great Kazoo's Feedback
"when you're happy you enjoy the melody but, when you're broken you understand the lyrics".
"Sales pitch" is a big stretch. He replied to a thread asking about local business. He is not an industry partner. The company he works for is an industry partner who has followed the guidelines of being an industry partner.
Next time you have a concern about whether other members are following the rules, use the channels provided for such concerns rather than some BS post in a thread.
Its says right there plain as day that he is an IP.
And who cares if I call his post a sales pitch or not? There seems to be agreeance with me from other members. I never mentioned any violation of the rules as I have never been an IP and do not know the regulations for it. I do know that his post was not introductory in nature (as common sense would dictate a 1st post would be), and was highlighting/selling his own work in a place other than the IP area. It's fair game for criticism as this is a forum for discussion.
either way, I dont really care. Continue on...

Poor Zach. Didn't anyone tell him that if you screw up on your first post, you have to buy everyone on the board a drink? Just let us know when and where buddy!LOL, welcome to the board!

Thanks Brian. Sorry I'm new to the whole board thing but I would have "pitched" Phoenix Weaponry when they first opened because I know the quality of the stuff they put out having been around and knowing the owners for the last several years. I can't promise you a drink but if you come down to the shop I will demonstrate the suppressors for you![]()
