The OLIVER thread

OLIVER is a post whore. He's trying to run up his post count higher than Ron's so he can show us all that he knows more about GT40s than anyone else in the world! There was too much signal and not enough noise in this forum anyway. We've exchanged a Hershal for an OLIVER! OLIVER is bringing teh tech! He's keepin' it real! Welcome to the new gt40s.com, baby!

Re: The OLIVER thread

I must confess I’ve become a real Oliver fan.

When Oliver first started posting he got under my skin as I’m sure he has 99% of us all, at one time or another. Now I find myself gravitating to topics Oliver is posting on, kinda like passing an accident on the freeway, trying to get a look-see for some carnage. Oliver’s posts are guaranteed to rub someone the wrong way, and somebody, inevitably, gets hooked in by his comments. Be nice to the guy, he can’t help it.

In Oliver’s defense, he has toned down his personal attacks considerably since reinstated and even has offered up some helpful post as well. In the least, he’s contributing in an entertainment aspect which can’t hurt. Let’s not get too serious around here, it can be fun too.

Treat Oliver like you would any hard working whore, with a little respect, and he’ll make it a fun experience. Again, Oliver can’t help being Oliver [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/lol.gif[/img] Heck, anyone that can even save a picture of one those fat girls to their hard drive, much less broadcast that they have it, has got one on me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/driving.gif[/img]

Re: The OLIVER thread

Gee!

For a person that called me every bad word in the book even a threating Pm and swearing he will never respond to an oliver thread still tries to egg me on. Why! Because now that his "butt buddy" is under criminal investigation he needs sombody else.. "that's why". Well sorry "Waterboy" is'nt going to happen!You even go to a great length to even start this stupid threat about me.I think it is you that likes the attention. I will not be the object of your desire you have sombody else for that. Your efforts to provolk me only show that you Love ME and you want me. Going through Oliver Withdrawl perhaps?. I don't know. But that is ok.. I understand you need for attention.. As for my response to your thread...see below...

Re: The OLIVER thread

Tim,

Thanks for the kind words. I rubbed people the wrong way mostly is because i speak the truth. And the truth hurts. My threads were to those who were upset because I was asking the hard question regarding RF. Alot of people were protecting Robert and His "parts manager" like they were "Gods" Well those "GODS" and the house of worship are gone..So as for me being toned down... YES it's true.
I only want justice for the individuals that lost there hard earned money. I will continue to be vocal and out spoken to those people who have there head up there A$$ regarding robert and "THE OTHER CLOWN". As for the comment on fat chicks ..this is for you..see below

Re: The OLIVER thread

I'll stick my [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/twocents.gif[/img] worth in and say that if you go back about 1 year and read all the RF background, there was only one voice (later possibly 2) that were quite vocal in their request for solid contiguous information from RF to back up company claims. Oliver may not have the best delivery or even qualify for the Corps Diplomatique but he was the only one that consistently guessed there was something up. Call it a 6th sense, I don't know and I have to admit by September of last year I have to agree something wasn't right. He hasn't crowed about it and he seems genuinely upset on behalf of those who have lost a substantial amount of hard earned plus he got his money back in good time and still hasn't rubbed that fact in. If he was indeed a 22 carat asshole he could be having a field day right now, so Mark, live and let live and lets all be mates!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img]

Re: The OLIVER thread

Thanks keith,
You absoulutly wright. I talk the talk and walk the walk. Regarless weather I was right or wrong in my delivery. As for having a field day...Yep your right I could. But I won't. It won't do anybody any good. The pain of losing your hard earned money is enough. Now my goal is to get anserws to all the lies that are currently still going on. And belive me "THE LYING IS STILL GOING ON".

Regards
Oliver

Re: The OLIVER thread

Sorry for being a bit slow but I missed where the ‘OTHER CLOWN’ alias the parts manager came into all this. Can someone please enlighten those of us who missed where the other clown’s involvement in this debacle extended beyond the visit to SA as reported by Andre??

Hey Dennis, you invited him so he staying at your place.
While he is there you can take him up to Australia zoo. Oliver will be sure to give Steve Irwin a run for his money.

Dennis,
I'm with you on this one, we need to 'keep the Bastards honest'. Just post nicely Oliver!.- it seems you have impressed quite a few of us brits from what I am hearing.
Lets make this Forum the domain of honest people-expose the cheats. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nono.gif[/img]

Re: The OLIVER thread

Having thought this through, I now regret starting this thread because it just gives OLIVER what he really wants - attention. I'll just finish my diatribe here and bow out.

For those of you who enjoy OLIVER's antics, there are thousands of forums on the web where you can find all sorts of people who behave just like OLIVER. These, however, are not the kind of places I would want to spend my time.

In my opinion, OLIVER has contributed little if any tech or even humor to this forum. He posts multiple times in many threads without really contributing anything. On the topic of not contributing anything, note that there is no little flag next to OLIVER's name, indicating he has never contributed financially to this forum. Among his recent, post-ban, kinder, gentler OLIVER "contributions" to the forum are slanderous posts and a picture of a naked 600-pound women as his avatar, again, to draw attention to himself. His presence has driven other forum members away. Is this really the kind of guy we want around here? Meat was abrasive but at least he could string a sentence together at the 8th grade level. This forum used to have the best signal-to-noise ratio of any automotive forums I've ever read; OLIVER has single-handedly caused me to use the past tense in that statement.

As for OLIVER being prescient about the RF situation, I would file that one under "Even-A-Stopped-Clock-Is-Right-Twice-A-Day."

Oliver\'s Porn

Pete, see 14 posts above. Oliver was kind enough to include an animated photo of a young lady grabbing her breasts.

Re: Oliver\'s Porn

That's porn??? I'd figured I'd missed something that had since been deleted. Bearing in mind the number of "off" jokes on the Off Topic Section, if you were worried about that sort of thing it would probably pay not to go Off Topic with your kids. Have you been to their school recently?
