I  chose not to come here often to avoid the dram  i ran into   in  previous  years or months   in the past  .

 

I' ve been told many time i dont help  enough well yall   tune in here  and listen ot  my story  before i delete my account and leave  for no return  ever .....

 

 

If your not on VCCC and vacuum land goood luck getting help   in my case ive lived it .....

 

 

For those who say i do not help  here is why :

 

 

I chose not to talk to avoid drama  know the saying  aint got none to say  .....

 

well thats was my  idea  after some drama  ... maybe i  got to happy  for restoring my  c9  c8 and lux  zb89   and im sorry  .

 

 

But i guess   , not  replying to each tread  every day like its  a second job  , ruffle some feathers  so  i do not post  alot   .  Due to the drama that come with this site status and  vacuum  collection status  required  to get help  if you dont have  mercedes benz  or cadillac eldorado  of a vacuum   good  beep luck with getting advise parts    ....

 

 

 

For the record all my vacuum  parts brush bag filter i find on my dam own  self   thank you   ...........

 

 

maybe i was  so happy to carry the legacy  of my  uncle  grand mother god father compact c8 c9  cxl  tradition  we had since 1971  since  m y uncle and god father sold em door to door  ...

 

 

not  that it means anything  here  or ever did  or will  mean  ........

 

 

 

i just sad  and chose to leave  as i need time to recharge my battery  and   chsoe  my  own  helath  vs  helping  person  here as  i have a life job and a 68 year old mother with a bad knee to  help live and  bills to pay  i suppose having  a   job and a life is  against the law on vacuumland   .....

 

i mean  f   i cannot be on  vacuumland every singel second of the day i havea life incase yall didnt  know  ............

 

 

i consider my self  a connoisseur  or  know how on vintage hoover compact electrolux  of  consiladed  food  .....

 

 

 

so  i tend to stick  with what i know if at  aint  broke dont  fix it  kinda deal and that hurth some ppl and i got emails tread post to prove it so for my own  personal metal health it is with a heavy hearth that i  am putting  

 

 

 

 

 

the final NAIL in the coffin and closing  my  vacuum land  account for ever  i left  for a few year  for my own health some member  took that personally as me Choosing not to  help on treads .....

You will be missed,

by, me. I used to take it personally when guys were rude, or even when my posts were completely ignored. I am sure there was no concerted effort to ignore my posts. But the rudeness...? To react was giving those guys, power they don't deserve.

I loved your posts about how proud you were of your Compacts. I neglected to read all posts to have read anything those guys wrote to you. I too have been busy with life away from VL.

No matter where you go, clubs, groups, work, there are those who are bullies. Great thing is "they get theirs in the end".

To the bullies who will want to attack me, don't bother. I have developed "thick skin" from your attacks. I believe somewhere in you, is a scared child.

Go in peace.

Antoine.
I know your email and your YouTube account.
I took a long hiatus and haven't been too active on here. The problem with me was me not the board. I was rude to people and arguing etc. Keep the compact alive I still use my yellow c9 quite a bit. Thanks for your help and do what you need to.

Antoine, I am sorry to see you go. And I feel your pain. I have mental health issues as well here, and hey, what can I say, I am always working on it. As they say, "Life is a work in progress". Like you, I have also felt there are certain members on here who are snobs and think they are better than others....have seen some of my posts and comments ignored many times on here. It may also be due to my posting style and going after a few members on here in the past, who knows.

But I don't let it get to me. Why? BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW ME IN REAL LIFE! If they DID, they would find a great guy with a sense of humor, a circle of great friends, with a normal life who just so happens to have a peculiar hobby.

Look, I have always enjoyed your posts, and I think you're a great guy. We would likely be good friends if we got to know each other. I am going to leave my email address showing in my profile for the next couple of weeks, so if you want to email me to talk that way, or maybe even by other ways, you will have a way to get in touch. If I don't hear from you, I wish you the best of luck in New Brunswick with your Mom, and hope you go on to accomplish great things in your life.

After  reading yall replies    might  reconsider .....

But  i  just had  it  up to  the bag  full  light( for lack of better words ... )    With some on here saying i don't  comment enough for others well i got a life outside here .  So  i do what i can  some times i scan  through   some time i post o r replies  i tend  to stick to what  i know  if it  aint broke don't  fix  it   kinda  deal    i might give it a trial  period   so don't  delete just yet   but  if encounter rudeness,.

 

 

   il  just block ur replies   3 strikes  rule   .   to those that dont  like me  just hide my stories ur   settings  .

 

So   trial  run  for now   for me

Antoine,

Glad to hear it!
You certainly don't want to do anything that causes you emotional distress. This is supposed to be fun.
But, personally, I'm happy to hear that you're going to give it another chance.
Like you said; if someone is rude to you, just don't bother with them. Maybe that's easier said than done. But, some of us do enjoy your posts, and your passion for your Compacts.

Barry

Very wise

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

um,   have you HEARD the stuff written about ME?  :)  It USED to bother me.  Now, I, like you,  just ignore it and move on.  There are plenty of nice people in here.  I've made life-long friendships through this.  Then, again,  there have been others... it's 'life'.

 I decided, long ago, never to let anyone make me THAT upset in here.

 So, I enjoy my friends, their posts,  I post pics, stories, events ,etc.

  All anyone has to do is ignore, OR  "hide that person or persons".

Some good and bad apples in life

Yep there are some good people and bad ones too in this works and that is reality. Crazy the drama created by some but the trick is to realize this and therefore avoid and ignore those bad ones and stay focused on the good ones and only interact with the ones you enjoy. I know that there are people in life who will not like my way of life and be mean to me…but I don’t want their company or approval because I know there are plenty who will like me for who I am. So it is those people who don’t like the way I am that will lose out of knowing the wonderful person I am.

Good luck if you do move on from here and may you find places to continue to enjoy your vacuum hobby in more pleasant surroundings. I’ve moved on to brand specific Facebook groups recently with much enjoyment.

Jon
