OP needs thicker skin and to change his attitude. I hope it's just youth to blame.

You mistake thin skin with having an opinion, or newbie daring to respond (which anyone has the right to do) to SF members criticism

Oh and my attitude has been perfectly fine throughout this thread, more than can be said for many others....

I might be younger than some here but I am not the one post rude and insulting one liners or rants. Thats pretty teenage behavior if you ask me.

I deleted them due to the rude posts by a couple of members. I was going to post proper ones up tommorow taken in good light etc.. but I won't be doing that now as anything I do post will be invaded by the same few members trying to prove a point.

Edit: The criticism doesn't bother me but when a few people take it too far I don't see why I should bother anymore. The moderate folk of the forum who actually have some respect for others should get rid of these idiots.

Well, don't continue to keep the thread alive if you have lost the sack to keep the pics up. If it is a trainwreck, take the beating and learn from it.

I don't see why I should keep the pics up if i just get abuse from the same few people over and over again on every single page. They made their point, I made mine, but they can't let it go and move on to a different thread.

I don't understand why the well-dressed gentlemen on this forum (like madjbs) get so much abuse. Seriously, I think the suit looks great.

^hoping OP puts the pics back up because I didn't get to see it. I was away for a few days.

Or i think a better idea is for those people giving you the abuse to put up pics of their own perfectly fitting suits.

Exactly!

It is interesting to note that not one of them have posted any of their pieces, let alone a suit!

They can't take people questioning their opinion, god knows what would happen if someone criticized their outfit!

Having not seen the pics or read any of the posts in this thread, I think I can be a fair judge of the fit. Please post pics and send me the links. Thanks.

I swore I would avoid this thread but its so frustrating to see it constantly at the top of the first page. This is a terrible argument. Nobody MADE the OP post up pictures. At the end of the day, according to SF it wasn't a good fit, and he didn't like what he heard. So he took them down.

He Chose to post the pictures and ASKED for input. Why would anyone that was asked by the OP be required to post a picture of themselves?

The reasons I took the pictures down are stated above. It has nothing to do with not liking what I heard.

Perfect pictures of your own perfect suits would give your opinions validity for a start. It would also show that the people that love to insult are actually capable of taking as well, it appears most of them haven't ever posted anything, so what does that say! They can't take people questioning their opinion let alone their suits.
