erm... if you say so champ - But if you are going to try and bait a reaction... you have to be a better master at it... learn from Malcy...

Nah... Its a bit of a laugh... which is why I haven't got Malcy on ignore... I think he's quite amusing - but he's clearly a master at baiting people... and sometimes, when I can be bothered, I take the bait and go with it...

Why is that, did he invite himself over to your house for dinner unannounced? He has previously admitted to "keeping a file" on certain individuals and strategically using that information as ammunition in future disputes. Take this example: I was once on a flight with my son (about 5 at the time). A few hours in, after the meal service had concluded, he had fallen asleep on my lap. My wife was also asleep beside us. I politely asked a flight attendant for a beer, having had just one earlier with my meal. Rather than a courteous response, the attendant was abrupt and dismissive, telling me to get it myself. I raised the issue with the purser, who brought me a beer without hesitation. MalcolmB later twisted this entirely benign incident, stripping it of context and turning it into something else entirely – which is typical of his behaviour, reframing this in future debates accusing me of: - Causing problems on a flight - Being a disruptive drinker while travelling - An irresponsible father under the influence with children in tow Another example: A young motorcyclist, perhaps 12-14 years old, pulled out of a side street and collided with the rear side of my motorbike, bending the number plate. The bike itself wasn’t damaged, and I was able to straighten the plate then and there. The lad apologised, and we left it at that – no harm done, no hostility, no report needed. Again, MalcolmB seized on this trivial event I'd described in a thread involving motorcycling, distorted the details, and in a different thread spun it into accusations such as: - Causing trouble with locals - Casing in traffic incidents - Lacking the skill to ride safely This is his pattern: take innocuous moments, warp the truth, and use them maliciously. It's calculated, dishonest, and entirely characteristic of him... And this is precisely how he 'weaponises personal information' as Trans highlighted, I've seen him do exactly the same with other posters. It doesn’t particularly bother me – it’s tit-for-tat when we’re trading verbal blows on the forum – but let’s be honest: it’s dishonest. That said, I won’t pretend to be above it all. I’ve also used information he’s shared to make a point. His repeated admissions of drink-driving, often after consuming 14 beers or more, have been referenced to highlight what I see as a glaring lack of moral character. We’ve both played the game. The difference is, I don’t need to twist the truth to land a punch.

That is some spectacular Thai Bureaucratic shyithousery right there !!!!

Keep at it – all it takes is a single video clip to hit critical mass, go viral, and before you know it, you’ll be able to afford a driver. Your content honestly couldn’t be any worse than most of the other boomers wandering around noodle shops, shopping malls, and Beach Road, deciding they’re YouTubers or TikTokers. I’m sure you’d be far more entertaining – and who knows, I might even agree with some of your points if you articulate them better than you write them.

To be fair... he may have mentioned Bar-girls and Prozzies as often as you mention MG and BEV !!!! Nevertheless - your information on the EV threads has been extremely useful, as has all the input (ignoring the ICE trolls) - I'm sure the information on those threads has allowed forum members to make informed better decisions)

Who wouldn't? You... I'm quite certain you'd be the first to rush in, and delay by frantically correcting the onomatopoeic grunts and rogue punctuation erupting from that little fudge-socket you're so both eagerly poised to french-dart....

Did you go through each thread to compare how many comments they had ? ... 'come-on'... Call yourself an 'influencer'... you deserve the title... Your threads bring in a significant % of revenue !!!! I'm quite sure you are very very familiar with emptiness... empty tables, empty rooms, empty beds, empty mind, empty memories apparently...(below)....

As an American you can not miss any of what he has to say. Oh I can... No it wont... Speaking of yourself ?? - I'm not from any country within the continents of North or South America, or from the United States of America....

Way to go 'you award winner you' !!! You've had the most liked content 1 day... Proud of you fella, you should go ahead and make another poll about bar-girls.... ... Surely the next one in your list is about whether BG's actually like a punter or not...

Pure ego. Malcolm is an easy target. Myself far too advanced for him. Through sheer curiosity - no doubt a momentary lapse in judgement following my recent comment, I opened your post..... Amusingly, you’ve once again confirmed that you're not even worth the effort of taking aim at.... ... At least Malcy pings the radar now and then. You, by contrast, drift anonymously beneath it... undetected, undistinguished... a kind of flat, inept nothingness. Just a complete waste of page space. ... With your comments hidden, it's not some grand statement - it's simply less scrolling. You're not offensive. You're just not there.

What about yagoda made you ignore him? I don't see you in any of the political threads You're not going to put your neck on the line for the others ??? .... Inanity !!... (I don't read the political posts - they're all sullied by sour septics)... that said, I've just taken him off ignore... I'll see if he's evolved beyond 'inane one liners'...

There’s a certain psychology with such sensitivity, especially when one can easily step out of the way. But no, an obsessive disorder seems to be in control. I'm sure the irony of you pausing to type that little gem - rather than “easily stepping out of the way” yourself - has sailed clean over your head. But do carry on diagnosing obsessive disorders while compulsively replying. It’s unintentionally amusing, and frankly, an to stay on topic... a textbook example of why engaging with certain minds feels like diddling a malfunctioning kettle: all hiss, no substance and too much dribbling....

You're welcome to step out of the way - you are not interesting enough to spar or discuss with.... Apologies.

Richard doesn’t come to the forum to discuss the topics. 90% of his comments are big noting himself or trying to belittle others. It is a worn out record. Indeed, I find myself teetering on the brink of contributing to such a vital topic. That said, I did leave it a few pages before dipping in – mostly to see who you’d attempted to troll and provoke this time. You’re still clinging to the usual tricks, I see – entirely predictable, but I’ll admit this thread has offered a few entertaining replies amidst the rubbish... Truth be told, Malcy, I think I might be slowly softening to your particular flavour of trolling... I imagine rather like a bad case of oral herpes – you learn to live with the occasional tingle, accept its unwelcome persistence, and lower your expectations accordingly...
