<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 2968095, member: 5233&quot;]You&#039;re right...and perhaps I got a little irritated and that showed in my response.&nbsp; I guess for me, there is a line between explaining what I would do and condemning someone.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As I have said, I would send them back because I believe that to be the right thing to do.&nbsp; I would probably ask for some compensation from them because my actual order has been delayed and I have to deal with shipping it back...but even if they said no I would still send it back.&nbsp; I would do it because I believe it to be the right thing to do.</p><p><br /></p><p>I feel that CT is among the best forums I have ever been a part of.&nbsp; I really enjoy it here...but I feel that whenever &quot;ethics&quot; type posts show up people tend to pile on.&nbsp; Not everybody...but enough to where the thread starts to become hostile to the OP.&nbsp; IMHO, that is not the kind of image we want here...at least I don&#039;t think so.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>FWIW, I have always thought your comments on such topics were fair and balanced.&nbsp; I really make an effort to be the same way...but I will admit that I can get a little testy and don&#039;t always achieve the balance I strive for.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>If I&#039;m perfectly honest, what I see in threads like this is sometimes things pile on to where I feel like the OP is being bullied.&nbsp; Perhaps that&#039;s the wrong way to feel...but I was picked on as a child so I get a bit defensive about that kind of thing.&nbsp; I remember when I was in the 8th grade I finally got tired of it.&nbsp; I grabbed a broom in the locker-room one day and bashed it across the face of the classmate who had harassed me for a number of years.&nbsp; I had finally had enough.&nbsp; I was suspended for it (he never was for anything)...but you know what, it stopped.&nbsp; Maybe I learned that day sometimes you have to lash out...maybe it was a bad lesson.&nbsp; Maybe that&#039;s the source of why I get defensive in these kinds of threads.&nbsp; It just bothers me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
