Marie explained the difference to me this way, lynette. On those other message boards, members spend all day finding excuses not to post auctions or complete sales, and constantly check with other message board members to make sure no one else is getting anything done either.

Member A: Boy, I feel miserable today. I'm not getting anything sold on eBay today I'm sure.
Member B: Me neither, it's hot as blazes here in Texas, I'm going to sit inside and cool off.
Member C: Count me in, I'm just going to watch this message board and chat with my friends. EBay makes enough money as it is, they don't need my listing fees today.
Member A: All right, I'm glad to see it's not just me.

On the PeSA Message Board, I think the greatest thrill any of us feel is when another member does well. I mean, I really got excited when select-cars-online did well with those no-reserve sales. That's really cool. I felt good for him and for our marketplace. I take pride in what we've accomplished as sellers, and as a group and as a message board. I truly feel that this board can serve as a guide for other message boards, and will ultimately show that it is possible to have spirited debate between members, often members competing in the very same categories, that is both productive and civil at all times.

Wow!

That's not the "Marie" (attitude) that I remember at OTWA.

Things sure have changed since Jay started helping Marie with her business, eh?

Truthfully, it's all my fault. I apologize. After lurking for many years, I've gotten braver and braver and started posting more.

I fear that my posts have thrown the world off-kilter and it's now spinning out of control.

It's my fault that Marie has become a snoot and Jay has become even more pompous.

Forgive me?!?

Just think she probably has to have sex with it too. I wonder if he wears his hat while they are doing it?

(yeah, I'm a deadbeat, not listin' any auctions, checkin' with my boardies and wonderin' if Jay screws with his hat on)

Hat AND socks would be my guess.

A real PESA stud muffin. :1headspin

gogamerscom, a PESA defender, tells RM a thing or two!:


Thanks! I am better than you. *sarcasm*. Stop applying such a generic blanket sterotypes to groups, in the long run, how funny it is will be outweighed by the toes you step on.


RM says:


Uh....yeah, okay. I never stopped to worry about the laugh factor being overshadowed by the smashed toe factor. What a fool I've been!

You da man!
