    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bill Leverton SCAMMER beware

Would it be too much to ask at this point that this thread be locked....even if bill does come back, he said he was leaving, therefore no need to keep this thread going,
Right?????

Stayed away from the computer for a couple of hours ..

Came back in, and had to run like hell to catch up! Have joked in PM's these past few days about how every time the tires on this thread start to get bald, Bill comes back and retreads them for another run around the block. Can't say much of anything that hasn't been said, but one line from Bill today did get get me thinking:

I can't say that I know how much respect Bill would have retained had he chosen to give Lee $1G, but if the fix had occurred plain and simple in the first few pages of this thread, I believe significantly more respect would have been retained than has been since lost.

As quoted often in this thread, Nixon will always be best known for saying "I am not a crook". But analysis of his misdeeds gave everlasting mileage to the adage:
It's not the crime ... It's the cover-up

Generally speaking, we don't lock threads unless they need to be locked. At this point there is no need to lock this thread. For the most part people heeded the earlier warning about the frivolous posting just to try to get a rise out of Bill (and a few warning points were given out to those who didn't heed the warning). As long as people refrain from further "piling on" then the thread will remain unlocked.

When this thread started Everybody was like Oh Bill we had all this respect for you B.S where were you people in the way of e-mails or phone calls.... No where A bigger name Popped on the the scene and like sheep you followed ...Figures... But thats ok got to show your loyalities dont want to burn bridges oh no thats a Big Herp sin....
Click to expand...

Loyalties to whom? Hmmm? I have never made a purchase from any of the vocal people on the site... and who knows if I ever will. How am I a sheep following? You admitted you are a thief and a liar. You admitted that you dont care. You stated its business as usual. I have no vendetta against you.... but there is no reason for you to have my respect.
 
Just borrowing this post Jim, this is not aimed at you or any one person.

What a sad, pathetic little man.

Seems Bill names the tune and everyone here jumps up to dance. I'm no mind reader but sure does look like he's playing with you folks. I don't know maybe he wants the longest thread record or? Every time this thread seems to be dying down some Bill gets you guys all fired up again and doesn't seem to have much of a problem doing it.

Maybe he's trying to get the boot?
Wants to go out with a Bang?
Sure seems to be getting warning points handed out to himself and others. Guess he wants to try and take a few of you with him? seems to be working.

I guess you could say that when you play with Bill" Play at your own Risk" ;)

I'm going to have to point out that there is a significant preponderance of thought that believes that it is Bill being baited back into the ring, not the other way around, and if I read the posts correctly, who was "fired up"?

I've got to agree, 2 weeks ago there were some people here who doubted that Bill would be capable of such lies and theft, I think Bill has finally removed even the slightest bit of doubt.
I think that Bill has been played like a fiddle.
The BOI works! If this thread had remained "locked" the real Bill would not have "emerged"
 
Tanner, Did you read the thread? I would suggest that you do. I would also suggest that you brush up on your photo ID skills while you are at it. At the age of 13, I would imagine that your experience in that department would be very little to none. Obviously, you have no control over your age, but hopefully you can learn the valuable lesson of looking before you leap. Now go read the thread.

Perhaps in the future you would do well to have some hint of a clue about what you are talking about BEFORE you post.
 
DAND said:
Obviosly another reason why the paid participant and higher membership to post on the BOI should be reinstated.

A.) This is some uninformed child.

B.) This is some one trying to keep the thread going even longer.

C. ) All the above.

What about a sanity check? That would eliminate Scolaro.
