Change in online policy at Stihl?

[Peter]

Steve. You run a great website and I applaud your charitable giving efforts. But, it was obvious to all that you sided with stihls position and that was against your members interests.

I can't say it any other way- we all need a check now and then:001_rolleyes:

 

Whatever your smoking, I want some.

What on earth? I sided with no one, as far as in concerned it's their business and they can do what they like. What does my members interests have to do with my own opinion on matters?

 

Got to agree with Steve on this, I watched the thread develop and Steve only pointed out as above

 

Some however were so outraged that they couldn't see that or much else

Didn't mean to upset- forget it and my apologies. My comments on meglomania still stand. If you ever watched Rome on TV you'll empathise. It's political.

You haven't upset me, you've just made yourself look stupid that's all

Well it cost them a sale on an MS150 because I couldnt get one online, bought an Echo Cs260TES instead and am well happy!!

Also the fact that stihl products have become successively poo er. Funny thing Is there own dealers were selling to unqualified operators ms201ts. I know this for a fact as my mate brought one all they did was show him the saw.

Sounds like either the policy was found to be illegal or their sales fell off a cliff, we didn't see that one coming did we:001_rolleyes:

 

Lets say goodbye to this arrogant policy:thumbup:

 

+1, agreed

Stevie B has to walk that line between his sponsors - thats the guys whose money goes to keeping this site alive and kicking .........and us, the unwashed joe public fanatics that make it what it is through our posts.

 

I think his position often gets lost and for one, have no issues with the way he runs the site - it is a fine line to tread!
