    There are more holes in this story than swiss cheese. I can't decide if this is entertaining or just plain stupid. This kid can't be more than 10 ... maybe we could start a pool?

    Bill - I think it's nice of you to offer your time but I fear that you might be dealing with an imposter. Seems so unorthodox for someone of his (supposed) capacity to start a thread like this. Furthermore you would think that someone of his wherewithal would have a better grasp of the english language. Then there is the matter of the IP address (his explanation being suspect). It just doesn't add up. Nevertheless we live in this great country where you are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. So far the only thing he is guilty of is poor grammar. If he is indeed an imposter then I guess we will find that out as well in due time. Or maybe he is gone for good?

    Oh so sad.

    Though, if this is lax, it's starting to appear that this has become a challenge to him which he enjoys. He tries it over and over, each time a little slicker (but not slick enough), trying to outsmart all of the moderators and the f-chat police.

    Maybe a better cure for this would be whenever the moderators sense lax, or another troll, just remove the thread and ban them before saying anything, don't give them the satisfaction.

    Then again, it may not be lax because keep in mind he did leave voluntary and he offered to "pretend to be an impostor" to just talk about cars.

    All and all, most likely is him or just another troll using a common proxy.

    Thought I'd give you all one last chance.

    I have thought about it and really would like to be a member of this forum. I would really appreciate if you let me stay. Let's pretend I am not actually looking to buy these cars, and I'm really a plumber trying to pay off my mortgage. Sound good? I updated my profile.

    Lastly, for some rock solid proof, that I was not lying, I updated my website for little bit (read the last sentence)-

    and here is the link, I am not planning on leaving it this way for too long, so it might be changed by the time you look:

    I though it was spelled purty, not perty. I laughed so hard reading this thread I had water coming out of my nose.

    I wonder if that James Dinan (the one in the pic) knows someone is using his likeness to pass themselves off as legit in an online forum :)

    Gotta give him credit for being persistent. Somehow I don't think the real James Dinan would waste his time doing this...

    James, I think you are the only "wealthy" person in history to use his real name as an online title. That might be a tip off. If Tiger Woods came on as Tiger Woods, he'd be booted. He may be a member, but we won't know. By using your name you are showing off. We are here about the product, not who we are. Why don't you hire someone to do the research for you and tell you what to get. Give Jay Leno a call, he'll tell you what to get. Sorry Jay.

    You don't know how to post an online pic, but you know how to black out your moms head? You don't know anything technical but you know more about ip addresses than I do? How is it that you are so ignorant and so intelligent at the same time.

    you've met me at a very strange point in my life. I have a buddy who is a hedge fund manager as well, I'll see if he has your contact info and I'll drop you a line.

    I think this is all ridiculous, but since you're back again maybe it's worth one more try. It's clear that you are aware of the wealth of knowledge there is to be had on this forum, and you want in. If it counts for anything, I'm probably one of only two or three people in this thread who followed your postings with little doubt from the get go. I'd like to believe you are who you say you are, but this forum brings forth a harsh crowed, especially when it comes to IP address being matched. But identity theft sucks, so how about this.

    Let's see a picture of that Aston Martin key fob, next to your Steuben golden apple, with a 'dated' sign reading "fchat rules!". If done successfully, I don't see why the mods wouldn't let you back in.
