Tonka97's Five Scenarios for John Chatterton

[ffestpirate]

Hey Tonka. I enjoy reading what John has to say. If you have an axe to grind, can you do it in a friendly matter? I would hate for him to quit posting because you are foaming at the mouth over unresolved Oedipus issues. Thank you

Hey, better question is tonka anywhere close to doing the dives JC does? NOT

 

[shoredivr]

No kidding, rigdiver.

Underseabumblebee, I bow before your superior nettiquet. I hope you do get John Chatterton to enjoy a barbeque with the Divas. Way more enjoyable than jousting, throwing down the gauntlet, so 12th century.

Maybe if everyone else would keep their busy little fingers out of it JC and Tonka could have an actual discussion. Considering his actual life/diving experiences I don't think Mr. Chatterton needs you all to come to his defense.

Sounds like you might be starting to tonk a bit yourself.

Tonka has been on the site several times the last couple of days. He certainly has done some rapid fire posting in past thread where SD has been discussed. He was pretty active in this very thread until JC showed up and posted. Then poof! He posts one really vague question and is MIA--well not really--like I said he has been logging on.

The reason you see so many post taunting the tonster is that he has been so vocal in the past about wanting to get a hold of JC and call him out on some stuff. He is being called out on his past behavior compared to how he is now responding or lack of responding in this thread.

Seems he was pretty bold with his post in the past and many of them were so over the top they had to be deleted over and over again. Well, now he has a chance and the mods are cutting him some slack and he isn't taking advantage of it.

So the real question now is, does he really want answers to the big five questions?? Or does he really just like bad mouthing SD and the divers associated with it and also really like posting about how great GG is? I suspect the latter.

I fully agree. Mr. Chatterton needs no one to come to his defense. I think the point you may be overlooking is that Tonka is not seeking a discussion. Someone or something rubbed him the wrong way. Tonka is looking for a confrontation. If it is a war of wits he seeks, I encourage him to PM me or stop by MOF for a spirited discussion. I have a lot of time to entertain his quest The point that people are trying to make here, is that JC has had a very interesting and storied career. Some of us would like to hear about his ventures and ask some questions about situations that
most of us will only read about in books. I can't imagine for a moment that John will continue to waste his time posting, only to be met with hostility and a need to defend himself from someone who obviously needs a life and/or a restraining order. If Tonka has an undying, self serving need for answers to the ghosts that haunt his mind, perhaps he should reserve those for PM's to John. Then John could answer him or more likely place him on ignore. Mr. Chatterton has chosen to join our humble little forum of 85,000 members only to be assaulted by one person who probably feels the need to compensate for his life's shortcomings by driving a really expensive, fast car.
Having said that, I would like to apologize to John. The majority of us really would like you to continue to interact with us. Please do not be deterred by people with personal agendas. We welcome you and are avidly looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Chris

Good luck with the SUDS program John, SUDS Diving Home Our hometown here in Idaho (Sun Valley) also has a history of helping vets in a similar way but with skiing, it's rewarding to be a part of such an endeavor.

Watch for SUDS and Mrs Chatterton making it over to :sblogo: in the not too distant future! We believe in helping servants.

:yelclap: Great, great stuff.

Doc, I was thinking perhaps this thread could be broken off?? This way John, if he chooses, can answer some questions from the members This way the negative BS can be left behind and we can get a fantastic thread going. Should Tonka ever choose to respectfully address Mr. Chatterton - this thread would still be open.

Just a thought.

Hey now, starting this thread is my only claim to fame. You wouldn't want to take that away would you?

Let me ask John's permission first! Thanks for your patience!
