bosco Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I just want to apologize to any members here that are also on the KG. I don't even own a KK yet and see how any post that is made becomes an instant debate. I am not sure why it happens... but I too have been guilty of it in the past as well. I applaud you all for not ripping my head off when I went at you. I have my reasons to believe it happens, but will keep it to myself. I will say when you own the best.... the claws come out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 No need to apologize. Those of us who have been guru members for any length of time sort of figured that was going to happen when you let the cat out of the bag. There are many people who will never understand the desire to own the very best for the things we love to do. I know for you, this leap to KK was not done on a whim after being a diehard KJ user. Like you, most of us spent hours and hours researching KK's and the decision to outlay this kind of cash for a kamado was not done lightly. There will always be some resentment by others. Don't let that get you down. Once they arrive you will truly realize what a great purchase you made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'm with ckreef. Once you get the kk, you truly understand that we're not just fanboys trying to justify spending the dollars on a kk. They truly are cooking art, there's nothing like them. If you have one, you get it, if you don't, well.... Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStick Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Bosco is THE reason I'm over here salivating at the opportunity to save and purchase a KK all the while continuing to do my research AND hold back the force. There is zero reason to apologize Bosco. Zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosco Posted September 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I have always been a part of the cool kids so to speak lol on that forum owning KJ. I am just shocked at all the attacks people make whenever they have the chance. It is really sad... but I don't care!!! I can't wait to get my new guys. I just wanted to say sorry to those of you that I directed any negativity towards over the years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedStick Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I for one hope you continue to post on the KG AND KK forums. Your cooks need to be shared. Your unveiling of the new KK's may very well implode the KG forum. It will be epic. I just know it, and I for one can't wait to read all about it. Keep doing your thing.

tomahawk66 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'm new to the whole ceramic oven scene so I am surprised to hear and don't really understand the resentment of which you speak... Can someone explain?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even own a KK yet and see how any post that is made becomes an instant debate. Was there a particular thread over on KG that prompted this?

Poochie Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 There's a tasteless saying about arguing on the internet...and of course I know it: Arguing on the internet is like the special olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded.

GoFrogs91 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Bosco, I too am on the KG site. There does seem to be a bit of a feeding frenzy at times. I haven't seen that here. Enjoy the serenity and don't bring the infection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 bosceaux - there is certainly no need to apologize for anything here! Thanks for being here; you may not be cute, but your damned good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryan Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 As they saw "Its Your Money Spend it where You Want To" It's hard to knock sucess! I am looking foreward to your Komodo Kamado cooks. In almost 8 years as an owner I have yet to hear a customer complaint about the units or the designer/owner Dennis Linkletter. I also can recall no pissing contest on this forum. Sounds to me like you should have been here years ago. Welcome to our world. "Komodo Kamado Owners" The best of all worlds. No brag just fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosco Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 This site is so chill and no anger or animosity. I really love it here guys!!! I love the guru .... My first love. I just need to adjust not cooking in the main stream.... But now the best!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFrogs91 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Bosco, several KK users go back and forth with no issues. We all love our KKs and tend to gush on them at times. Unfortunately, that sometimes is interpreted as the grilling equivalent of telling a group of loyal Chevy owners why you love your Porsche. A KK is an aspirational purchase and it isn't for everyone for a variety of different reasons, which is fine. Sadly, KK'ers and their enthusiasm for their grills is misinterpreted at times as rubbing others' noses in it. When I saw your post on the guru site announcing that you bought, not one, but two KKs I thought, "Oh boy. The long knives will be coming out." With your historic passion for your KJs and your prolific posting on the site, there are bound to be some that see you as some sort of traitor. Don't sweat it. It is what it is. You're definitely welcome here. And by the way........l won't believe you bought two of them until they are placed at the Bosco palace. With no pictures, it didn't really happen.😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 This site is so chill and no anger or animosity. I really love it here guys!!! A few years back when I first joined guru it was very much like this forum - one big happy family. Over time as guru grew in size, anger and animosity slowly crept in. On a couple of occasions I was even the culprit. Now I try my best to not comment much in the questionable threads. Mostly now I just post cooking threads and comment on the same. Even some of the help threads can turn sour with so many different opinions so I usually just let others help. I too really like the laid back nature of this forum and it's still small enough I can read all new posts daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I remember when I was first looking at ceramic cookers and I signed on to view the Green one. I didn't know a thing about ceramic cooking and was looking for a friendly place where I could get some help if I needed it. WOW, talk about a place I didn't want to be. That was end of me getting a green cooker. It's no fun with the nasty stuff. That's where mods can come in handy if need be. I'm sure that future buyers will look at the connected forum to the product they are researching and it can have a big effect on what they purchase.
