I'm not sure what the purposes are in starting this thread, but it has convinced me that I would never deal with you. I would bet that I am not alone in this response. Congratulations!

So are you accusing Ben North of not being Ben North and Leon not catching a fake name?

Defaming: are you saying ben's remarkes about you are false?

I should be able to know who my 'accuser' is right ? all real names must be used here, right ?
so shouldn't I be able to ask who is ben north ?

the truth can always be questioned --- 30+ responses to this thread NOT ONE person knows him

I'm sure hes a good guy just seems odd no one knows him at all ---all the big players come to Chicago etc right? why never come to a show Ben ?

PLEASE re-consider and do business with us OLDJUDGE please please !?

Jay, as you know, I've been on here since before we were on N54 and I agree with you 100%. These threads get so tiring and serve no useful purpose other than to be aware of who to avoid.

does anyone know the omnipresent 'Ben' in the "real world" ?

I googled it, but after dilligently searching I could not find a single 'Ben' on any of the decades worth of seasons of MTV's Real World.

I don't get why it's so critical to know someone in the real world.

When I joined, I "knew" some of the members from seeing their names ages ago, but I'm pretty sure I haven't met them.
Between budget, other hobbies and recently kids, I don't get to many shows. Maybe 2-3 a year when I was more active, a couple years I went to more, but was helping the show promoters.

One thing I think a lot of new people miss is that most of the regular posters are people with strong personalities and opinions. And little tolerance for games that aren't sports. They're also generally good people too. Of course we have some strenuous disagreements, that's people. (Anyone saying they never disagree with someone is either lying, or really has no opinion of their own)

never said it was 'critical'. just wondering. it is seriously amazing how people love to twist threads I love it flame on!

how it is such a problem to wonder WHO someone is since this forum is 100% no fake names --there is zero tolerance for it

so since ben n.orth is so well known HOW is it no one has met him ?

I get 60+ responders and nothing but people saying I'm trouble? for asking WHO is defaming me ? I'm not entitled to know who is posting since this forum is all transparent?

seems opaque to me.

and for those saying 'let it go' --that's what we are doing over here; but we need Ben and any other detractors to have a chance to voice their feelings towards TOPPSAHOLIC

thanks to those who sent cool polite PM saying they like us (both of you)

This is the exact response I had and kept wondering why the OP even cared about a defunct MTV show that was filled with a bunch of self centered sex fiends.

But to each their own!

Say what you will about Toppsaholic, but the man is an optimist. He dares to dream.

To be fair, Ben lives in South Dakota, and nobody knows anyone in South Dakota.

It is amazing how true that is. It also has amazed me how many adults don't even know where SD is on a map.

When I lived about an hour away from Dan in Clinton, I had everyone there convinced we still rode horses and used covered wagons. That was in the 80's though.
