    Re: 80 pound 8 foot (really)female Water monitor

    The lesson is a bit more complex than that. It has to do more with baiting a trap (in this case with something that is more than likely true) and then watching people bicker and fight over whether or not the bait exists.
    Sort of like you are doing now with suggestions about his identity, and his motives for posting what he did?

    I'm going to get the popcorn and brew...carry on!

    Suggestions? Wake up - he's already admitted that not only does he know people mistake him for Golli but that he was doing nothing but stirring the pot when he started this thread.

    I subtly pointed it out on this very thread and have "discussed" it with his Greatness on others.

    There were a few forums he would frequent, sadly he doesn't do much of that anymore.

    To the uninitiated, he would often make outrageous claims.

    To those who knew who he was, those claims were perfectly believable.

    One of his favorite pot-stirring tactics was to start a thread about an outrageously rare or large animal in his collection.

    For weeks upon end he would let people call him out, express their doubts and accuse him of lying - all while making jokes and increasing the doubt. Those of us who knew him well were warned privately to not ruin the joke....to let those who have been taught by the Almighty Care Sheet or who have drunk from the Trough of Internet Regurgitation whip out their pitchforks and torches.

    Then when the stew was spiced just right he'd provide the proof and make a lot of people look like judgmental idiots. Case in point - all of you knuckle-heads who think the third person affectation is serious need to pull your heads out of your asses.

    Now, I have never met Big Gunns and I have no idea what amazing animals he keeps.....but I've seen this played out before.

    Keep in mind folks - some people have nothing to prove to you.............except maybe to gently point out how much you really don't know.

    ....or maybe Big Gunns is a big bag of wind. I guess we'll find out when he decides everything is spiced just right.

    Suggestions? Yeah right.

    I got no beef with Big Gunn Neil. I find what he does amusing and his information is spot on.

    But don't suggest that I am suggesting anything. Everything I've brought up Mr. BG has openly admitted to. Got it?

    Well...I feel that I will use the Ignore feature FINALLY for ONCE on this site.

    I am honestly flabberghasted at how the Admin/mod team sits back and lets all this crap happen.

    So becuase he has Candies...and because he....sorta answers noob questions.....we ALL have to put up with this nonsense.....

    Utterly ridiculous.

    Mods...check my positive feedback to see what all of your other "vet" members think of BG

    I'm trying to find where BG broke the TOS. I can't seem to find it, but I'll keep looking. The staff isn't putting up with anything. The guy just isn't breaking the rules. Most of the recent posts in this thread have done nothing but feed the very thing you all seem to have issue with.
