He is up again, Rob. Now he is Vern, and is accusing you and Dave of worshipping Satan. This is too much. |

>>Whose going to order the t-shirt? Dr. Tax,you volunteered?<< Hey man, I'm a working stiff today, and tomorrow, and day after tomorrow, and probably the day after that... I was just pointing out an opportunity for the younger entrepreneurial types out there. Heck, maybe JR could do it to make some money to offset his server costs, ha!

OK, I think the guy is down for the count. I've moved on, unless he gets back up again. |

Tom, all I will say is my opinion: I believe that he has pissed off so many customers, and chased so many out of his shop, telling them never to return, that he has very few left. It's like a snowball: it starts out small & slow, but as it picks up mass, it also picks up velocity...eventually becoming a rolling locomotive that will stop at nothing as it travels at 300 mph & accelerating. That is what I believe has happened/is happening with his business. So few people have any interest in doing business with him that the outflow of money has long exceeded the inflow. And his pathetic, offensive, borderline criminal, Napoleonesque attitude and behavior sure ain't attracting any new customers.All IMHO, of course. Good luck with your venture. I think success is actually not difficult in that business: treat customers like the gold they are, and turn the other cheek if they ever bother you, and you will stand out in the crowd & prevail! |

Well I know about the previouis battles on this site with him (in fact I took part in few). I would just like to know how he has lost so much in a short period of time it seems. Maybe to much exahust fumes over the years, I don't know. The reason I'm interested I because I'm very close to opening my open exotic car repair shop, and I want to make sure I don't make the same mistakes. I will try to search through the archives and try to find out were all this began. |

Sorry, man, not really going to dredge it all up. Lots of unpleasantness unleashed by him on essentially anyone taller than he is (which means EVERYONE). Please do a search of this site & archives if you're really interested. |

Tom...I think it is safe to say that Little Johnny does NOT have a "good heart"... |

Seems like an unfortunate situation. JRV does seem to be a good tech with a loyal following. This strikes really close to home for me because the shop I used work work for is in the same situation as JRV appears to be in. The owner pissed to many people off and lost his loyal mechanics,and the mechanic's took all his clientel. The man had a good heart but made lousy business choices. I hope this is not true for JRV as I hate to see anybody lose want they have worked for. |

Right now. I say he is gone by January 1. Already, creditors are calling daily. He has other trolls answering the phone & claiming that they "can't find the owner". This can only go on for another month or so. Then vendors will appear to repossess stuff. Then a few of them may put liens on customers' cars. And then it will all be over. |

I prefer "I'VE BEEN BANNED BY LITTLE JOHNNY" on my T-shirt. I think it is MUCH more descriptive. Earlier today, I saw 2 posts on Talk from Ric Rainbolt, asking a nice question about the little troll's allegations of a "vast conspiracy" to "hurt" the Running of the Bullshit event. Both posts complimented the Talk site...yet were removed anyway. They were both deleted within 15 minutes by (to use Ric's exasperated word) Stalin... It sure is easy, but unsportsmanlike, to have a battle of wits & words with such a woefully unarmed opponent as Little Johnny. The first 3 are for the little no-load troll. The 4th os for everyone else who has had to put up with his schit:

I might have be banned also Those sites like www.anonymizer.com are great because you can just keep switching and get new IP addresses. Some of the free ones even alow you to post on websites like F-Talk |
