Quote from hapaboy:
RS7/Error should not have divulged his personal info to someone on a public chat board, especially to someone who always questions the integrity of his posts. I have a lot of personal affinity for RS/Error (despite our political differences!) and my opinion is that he's a decent guy who made a naive mistake by breaking the cardinal rule of revealing personal info on the Net, including the selling price of his home.
Being "pussywhipped" has nothing to do with this issue; the bottom line is that Mrs. RS is scared so he's doing the prudent thing in taking a leave of absence from ET and returning later in a different incarnation. Optional777's and others' criticism for him doing so only reflects their bitterness and personal scars from their own failed relationships and marriages - I hope you're not taking their comments to heart, RS.
Now, IF Max401 went so far as to research the details of RS7 selling his home, that's disturbing. Frankly I'm surprised, Max. Your posts that I have read seemed to reflect a relatively normal person, so if you did indeed feel the need to investigate the minutiae of RS7's real estate dealings, I'm disappointed to say the least.
And RS, if I were you I'd take Max up on his offer to share his own personal data with you and the missus as it may alleviate some of her fears.
As for the FPC issue - when you come back in your new form, RS, just put him on Ignore.
Agree with the PW comment.
As to "investigating," the guy posted his sales price and the new asking price and said the buyer did a huge amount of remodeling. I simply asked him how this could be? There would be hardly any profit left. So after several RS7 attack posts, he puts up the phone number of the buyer/remodeler.
Now, just so we know what's going on. What have we got so far? I factually put his bragging half-million sales price in dispute.
Instead of instantly knowing what he says
later is a "typo," it's post after post of his adamant insistence that his numbers are all correct and he got the coinstruction estimates, I'm a stalker, I'm obsessed. Ok, stop right there... Who gives a shit? No one. But this is just another RS7 scenario and I just sit there and ask a question and he does all the rest, and as usually occurs, he blows both his feet off.
Now, if you want to come to me and say, "Don't be so mean to RS7," that has a lot more validity then all this other crap. Hey! It's chit chat, so whatta ya want from me?
BTW, here's the EXCUSE (like all the others, similar in theme), but he produces it only AFTER I discover the actual sales figure:
"I made a typo and said I sold my home for "approximately $500K". When in fact it was closer to $400k. I then went on to talk about how my wife and I were looking to move with a budget of about $500K. Whether I was thinking about the 500 budget when I meant to type the 400, and that caused the error, or if it was just a simple typo and nothing more...I honestly don't know. It was a mistake pure and simple."
