More bullshit than you can fit in a vw beetle.

Its funny that you and Joesho are just here to promote world peace, yet you find time to do threads like this, and call people out... If Gonzo was ever in doubt about the motives of these two, then I will would like to repost a fairy tale (names have been changed to protect the innocent)

Once upon a time, there lived an board owner who was quite an average fairy tale ruler, with one exception: he cared much about his clothes. One day he heard from two swindlers named Rhetoricol and Joesha that they could make the finest suit of clothes from the most beautiful cloth. This cloth, they said, also had the special capability that it was invisible to anyone who was either stupid or not fit for his position.

Being a bit nervous about whether he himself would be able to see the cloth, the board owner first sent two of his trusted men to see it, Toba and Rcourto. Of course, neither would admit that they could not see the cloth and so praised it. All the townspeople had also heard of the cloth and were interested to learn how stupid their neighbors were.

The board owner then allowed himself to be dressed in the clothes for a procession through town, never admitting that he was too unfit and stupid to see what he was wearing. For he was afraid that the other people would think that he was stupid.

Of course, all the townspeople wildly praised the magnificent clothes of the board owner, afraid to admit that they could not see them, until a boy said:

"But he has nothing on"!

This was whispered from person to person until everyone in the crowd was shouting that the board owner had nothing on. The board owner heard it and felt that they were correct, but held his head high and finished the procession. Rhetoricol and Joesha escaped during the procession when they realized they had been found out.

The End

Rolo, I gotta say, that was sooooooo unoriginal. I have seen that cut and paste about so many people on so many boards. Your creativity is boundless. Your wit, stupendous. Duh.. Oh yeah, like I said...blah blah...yadda yadda..emprorers new clothes...blah blah...puppetmaster...yadda yadda.

Rolo, wtf is wrong with you. Why are you so angry? bTW, still no update on your success and why anyone should listen to you. Oh yeah. Everyone was a surfer before they were webmasters. Get over it. It is just the way it works. Listen up grasshopper.

All I have seen in this business, when it comes to boards anyway, is smoke and mirrors. I learned a long time ago, believe half of what you see with your own two eyes and nothing of what you hear. To any newbie reading this...that is the best single piece of advice I could give you. Don't believe the hype. Unless you personally see it with your own eyes, (and even then have your doubts) don't believe it, don't trust it, don't pay it any mind. You may just find yourself chasing shadows and ghosts.

That being said, as long as my bills are paid, my wife is happy, my business associates are satisfied with my work and my kids get what they want for christmas...I could give a rats ass what any of ya do. That is an ethic that has eluded many in this business me thinks. I subscribe to the "my own backyard" rule first and foremost.

It's like any other business though I suppose. Hell, when I was in lowly construction, one of the main topics of conversation amongst the workers was always what someone else was earning and the fact that they didn't deserve that kind of money, as opposed to conversations about what they could do as individuals to increase their own revenue. I guess it probably transcends every job in every market place.

Lemme see if I got this straight - you are accusing someone who is responding to rhetorical of spewing bullshit?

That is classic. Truly fucking classic.

leave him alone PD... we need to respect his vision of what oprano should be... a place where he can be an idiot and an asshole without fear of someone calling him on it. he dared to dream a dream. it has never been closer to becoming reality than it has in the last month.

rhetorical wants peace and love too. afterall, thats what he was saying again and again while he was getting beat into the ground. he even started a thread saying how nice it was that things died down. a casual observer might have noticed the peace and quiet and thought this was a nice place to be. of course, it only took a couple days before Joe and Graham had to start trying to start shit again. i am forced to give them the benefit of the doubt as presumably, their constant attempts at baiting people and starting fights is somehow in the best interest of gonzo's vision and consistent with their own self professed intentions of creating a constructive environment where learning and helping others is THE central focus of the board.

I call this collection of Joesho quotes:
