Sloate is on a roll today, even allowing for his one Seinfeld post!! Change in breakfast cereals?

Well, I hope you put some sugar on it or what's the point?

We'll all miss Crazy Glenn Willrich. He of the $40 card sales and Klonopin prescription.

This is the same guy that posted "I'll take it" in a sale thread of mine and then decided to renegotiate the deal with me and then ultimately backed out. Then followed up with threats in PMs. All class - all the time.

I believe that was the last time I posted something for sale on the BST. So, he's got that going for him, which is nice.

Joey is on an official break from the board (banned). He sent me an email last night asking to be banned and I obliged. We get a lot of guys on the board with situations and I think he really needs some help. I don't think he's that bad of a guy and has a medical issue he needs to be treated for. I could be wrong on that..... But please don't ask him questions or go on and on about him as he won't be able to respond now. I have no idea if he will be allowed or want to come back in the future. It won't be for a quite a while, at least. As for Glenn, I don't see him ever being allowed on the board again. He might sneak back in and if he does I hope someone alerts me as they usually do. Carry on....

Has one thread ever resulted in TWO people being banned before? This could be Net 54 history right here!

Joey was banned from the fruit market for trying to return a bad peach.

Guy is having a rough week.

So if he's banned is he allowed to log in just not respond?? He's logged in as I type this!

No he isn't logged in. A banned member can't login.

I should add that it is probably a caching issue on your computer. It happens frequently to me.

Leon, it was a good idea.

I met Joey Saturday for the first time - had coffee and a long pleasant conversation. Since I only live 20 minutes away from him, it seemed like a good idea. I hadn't planned to post anything about it, and won't respond to questions about him, but here are a few thoughts.

I agreed with Leon's post above before I talked with Joey, and I still agree with it after having met him. I have no idea if Joey really got robbed or not - the subject didn't cross my mind until he was gone. But I know that this forum, being the community where he's made a bunch of hobby friends and had a lot of fun, is important to him. Now that he has said that he had everything but a few items stolen, re-selling said stolen items by himself would be pretty much impossible. So they might as well be stolen. I bought the Jackson painting. I had mixed thoughts about it, since by buying it I was allowing Joey to succeed at circumventing his B/S/T ban. But I actually wanted the painting and thought it should be off the market ASAP - it had already been on ebay briefly, which seemed wrong. So now that part of the drama is done with.

So now Joey no longer has anything that he can sell other than a few basketball photos that he said were inexpensive. Knowing self-control was going to be a problem, he asked to be banned, and he has been. Not making excuses for him, but not sure what else we can do here to make ourselves feel any better.

What eBay name did he use this time?
