He just lurks, like the true coward that he is. You don't have to be signed on to actually scan through any or all Acaeum threads.

Interesting that he still reads every single word here, though. Don't you, Diamond Dave? Image

+++++

Actually, today is one of those rare days where I feel bad for Cougie. No, wait! Hear me out ...

Check this thread here:

http://www.acaeum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6009&start=0

... where Acaeum members at GenCon discuss their weekends. What's the overall theme of the posts? They talk about their purchases, sure ... but that's not it. The biggest themes are camaraderie, friendship, being helpful, generosity, nostalgia, and, of course, just generally trying to have some fun without spoiling anybody else's fun.

And all of those are things that Cougie will just never, ever get.

In Cougie's world, it's all about buying S2's for $1.10 and selling them for $1.11, it's all about being the biggest (even though he fails in every single statistical comparison) and the best (yeah, insert your own joke here) "D&D seller in the world," it's about using every possible loophole to rip off every possible penny from every possible buyer, and it's about constantly lying (three houses ... whatever you say, Dave) and dealing with an incredibly poor self-image (don't need an advanced degree to figure that out) on a day-to-day basis.

So, yes, on rare days, I actually feel bad for the guy. Not only does he not get what D&D collecting should be about (again, read the other thread), but he also doesn't have a single clue as to what life should be about.

And that's sort of sad.

If it all wasn't self-inflicted, I might actually fell bad for him too.  Alas, its not, so I am just waiting for the inevitable Karma strike that is destined to hit....

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'll definitely get over it.  :)

But, really, reading the GenCon thread and this thread back-to-back is enough to make you wonder how a person could just not get it on such an extreme level.

But, at the end of the day, Dave is (chronologically, at least) an adult who has made his choices. His misery is entirely self-inflicted; no argument there.

Speaking of Coug, check out this win for him:




** expired/removed eBay auction **




8O



I would have put this in the "Silliest Auction Price" thread, but why clutter that theead up Dave's crap. :wink:

I think he's forgotten that I'm not "Xaxaxe" on eBay. He's emailed me before, using eBay, but he's either forgotten my user ID or never put two plus two together ...

Pssssst! Hey, Diamond Dave!

If you want to give poor Brian a break, feel free to hit me at [email protected]. I'll be sure to turn off my spelling and grammar filters ...

Dave since for whatever reason Ebay blocked my response, I will direct 3 things here since you are obviously reading:


1)  I have never interfered one bit with your auctions.  Unless of course you consider my decrying here the steamrollering of your very own buyers and the sellers that you have stolen from as "interference"

2)  I didn't ask you a single question, not here or through Ebay.

3)  Most importantly, if you really aren't bothered by the postings here, then why the unsolictied emails through Ebay....

Oh, one last thing, Xaxaxe is not Badmike either.

Jeez! Now I feel kinda off, and somewhat bad. Although I DO NOT want him bidding on my materials, I also don't want to think of him tooling around his house in a fit... :roll:  8O

Sorry for all the emails bclarkie (as I resurrected the thread with my "he's blocked" post).

Oh, not to worry.  :)  I have actually been laughing my ass off here.  My GF thinks that I am going nuts here laughing hysterically all by myself for apparently no reason. :wink:

I used to doubt that Dave really read the Acaeum strands....

And then he mentioned the Acaeum in his auction and specifically spurned a call for him to clean up his act and join the community.

He could only have known that if he had read the Acaeum posts.

One interesting thing about Dave is that he does not feel the need to log on here and defend himself.  A number of other guys have done that.

I keep on expecting that he'll show up with Dr. Evil as his avatar and say something really evil/funny.

Unfortunately, the dialogue is unlikely to stay funny for long.  :(  

Too bad.

Is this the thread that linked the "retarded cougar" Ebay auction a while back? That image just killed me :lol:

thanks for the listing. but i am afraid that you did do yourself out of over $100 as I DO bid more than thew average as i sell the stuff, I dont care if you believe me or that you listen to the liars cheats & thieves, or that you place personal messages on public sites, you HAVE lost out and could determine that if you viewed my previous bids, your loss, not mine, each time the idiots get another beluver it costs them money, your case well over $100 WELL DONE, now run alone and report to the fools like a good puppet

What is his screen name here? He clearly follows this thread.



After coming home from Gencon...and reading this...ahhhh, sweet cherry on the top of the sundae!

You've gotta be kidding me.

Maybe he really is dyslexic...or something.
