Just went through the first thread, and half-way through the second. There SHOULD be some way to nail these characters and send them somewhere they cannot cheat people. It is one thing to just spam a forum advertising something, and another to actually cheat people of thousands of $$. But boy, you guys are awesome! No wonder, you sent jamesbikerblog packing off so fast!

So far Helmut and his aliases are three for three.
I could never recreate anything close to that. I've tried a couple times, but that's my magnum opus. I'm a one-hit wonder on an obscure forum that follows an obscure sport. I know a little of how Carl Douglas feels.

Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoooooo.

Great thread there helmut. I especially like the reference to being the voice over for Spock (actually Charlie Murphy). That was an entertaining 15 minutes of reading. BRAVO!

They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It's an ancient Chineese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip

They don't write 'em like that anymore.

For money, Caesar. He tells me he wants to die rich.

And so he shall. Give him this sack of gold and then strangle him.

One of this forums more amusing members was Boudreax, it was a sad day when we lost him.
a selection of his crusty wisdom

There is alot of blather here that does not float the hooey barge.

A seatpost makes no friggin difference as to how you arse feels, assuming you put a saddle on top of it. The frame is actually aluminum alloy with a tiny % of Sc fairy dust.

You can tell it's winter.The muppets and BS'ers hang up their riding gear and start pontificating on the bike forums. The bigger shovel and hip boots are ready..

the funniest thing is he posted mostly in the techinical forums and could still stir it up

He was a pisser. I'm surprised he didn't call anyone a 'carpet smoker' in that post.
