Well what I'll say to you is it's unimportant. Really this forum, indeed all of Forumville has been Fucked for years. Politics or otherwise, the game has always been to disagree not by taking apart another poster's argument, but by taking apart the poster himself. I guess gamblers have big egos. And since Offshore is pretty much dead there isn't much left to talk about.
Most do not know this. Even Wilheim accused ME of ghosting, and coming in here to hawk my website. If I mentioned my website 3 times in here in 15 years, ah, let's just say I'll take the UNDER. And this all was AFTER my battles in here gave Wil the idea to separate this forum from the financial forum, and retitle this room, "Political Satire, Make of it what you will." But I digress.....
In 1999 Russ Hawkins and I had a beef with Shrink over a sportsbook operator named Patrick from a con operation called Players Only. They were stiffing soccer bettors. I took Russ' side (RIP 'The Kelvinator') posting as Scott Landau. Shrink tossed us out. I laughed. Russ started Major Wager. Then in 2006 I entered this room without logging in. All the software had changed and the board redesigned. I wasn't going to even sign in. But then I saw the little faggot eek (no offense intended to actual homos, except eek) and the nazi sd2, having a blast with their Jewbashing. I tried to sign in but could not, although 'Scott Landau' is still an active poster. So I created the Username Scott L.
I've had my battles in here with the Israel haters and the jdogs, dawoofs and tiznows who think a cabal of 7 Jews pull all the financial strings in the world. I even left a couple times. But Fuck, now? Anyone can say anything to me and it wouldn't bother me. It's just a forum guys. Who cares who's who? You have to laugh with those you get along with, and not take those who disagree with you so seriously. If I can't help somebody see my side in 3 posts I just move on now.
