Fastest pick

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

I think shoes could have worded that better. i basically got about 15 emails with useless responses in threads. i PMed the guy to see if i got a respond assuming some kind of spam "bot" wouldn't respond. If ide had no response i would have PMed a mod with the user name explaining i thought it was spam.

I did NOT pretend to be a Mod or Admin. i didn't even present my self that way. i cant remember what i said exactly but i basically said "hi, hows it going just got about 15 emails from threads uve posted on"

the guy was just bored and messing about. he didn't realize people would be bombarded with emails. then we exchanged a few messages either way about picking.

I can see how you would have misunderstood that but i do not, and never will try and do the mods jobs.

sorry for the misunderstanding.

yeah, was going to say, no one was nasty or warning to the fellow, we just wanted to know what was up with his very random postings.

Can certainly understand how a newbie finding this old thread would misinterpret this as vigilante justice, though, so good to have the air cleared about it.

Though I'll admit, for a minute there I didn't take into account when this thread was from (just read your new message quoting me) and thought "...but I am a moderator..." :?

hehe, took me a second to figure out what the hell was going on. :P

Can you pull your swang out in complete darkness while buzzed and take a leak without soiling mommie´s carpet? Of course you can cause you´ve done it a million times. The same with anything....practice and visualize your way to perfection.

did I just read this?


Yes you did. And to make matters worse, I've been practicing pulling out my swang in complete darkness since that post.

Getting better.

I advise no further advice until this is explain satisfactory,

A non picker wanting to pick locks fast usually means up to no good,


Sounds like someone wants into a locker or something pretty bad. Maybe you should get written permission from Mom before you even get an answer from DB or Shrub.
Always looking for the next best lock; never disappointed!

I thought that lockpicking was about getting the lock open at a reasonable pace.

I can only see you being about to open cheap, low amount of pins locks ( like cheap padlocks ) and thats with a rake pick.

YEAH sounds like trouble to me...

If im practising indoors i never do anything fast i just practise new skills.

And if you were a locksmith you would feel at ease , because of the fact that your not doing anything bad , your just doing your job.

someone trying steal something out of a garage or something like that would want a fast picking lockpick. The high speed comes from years of practise ( of which i lack :oops: )

i don't know what's wrong if you'd like to open lock fast...ok im complete newbe, but i thought it's not only that you open a lock, but that you open it in short time...and yeah there is a possibility that berky is up to no good but,as some other guys said maybe he just wanted to show off...you could be little more gentle with us newbies
