what a boring menial pitiful exsistence you must lead when you have nothing better to do, than stalk a fellow member of stw! you seem to have some weird obsession about me and i am a bit worried about your mental capabilities to tell you the truth! maybe with a name like bethel you may be in need of some divine intervention, and to be brought into the real world instead of being a coward and hiding behind a computer screen! regards michael!

Firstly sunshine, you are not a fellow member of STW.

Secondly…no one wants your shit.

and finally…if you think I am hiding….

Smells like irony, sounds like irony, feels like irony – is it irony?

It all get a bit 'serial killer' when they start emailing you & taking it all seriously

I've had them in the past – the best thing to do is simply ignore them

You need to also post what this guy is responding to!
Seems very easy here to de-pick or segment info then
asking for peoples responce as to oppose the whole thing.

i am a bit worried about your mental capabilities to tell you the truth!

I'd say he has that bit spot on.

Never had you down as a hider* though. Maybe invite him out for a "ride". 😉

*if that's even a word

no probs. Here is what I wrote:

Brilliant, I have been living in a cave for a few weeks and haven't seen anything like this before.

Could you email me some pics to:

classifieds_abuser@shitbikes.com

Cheers

in response to his endless ads.

manwell

Remember pedalthreads Inbred? This is even worse. At least pedalthread used the main forum, whereas the only time manwells has ventured over was to slag someone off for not using a lock after their bike was nicked, and to slag off a bike shop (thread subsequently closed)

With the multitide of posts on here talking about classifieds scammers or abusers….**** him.

Ok Barry Yep point taken there LOL

Yep, he can get lost really.

Can we have a 50's style Teddy boy fight with rusty bike chains please !

oh what a tangled web he weaves when bethel ventures to decieve!

decieve?

I'm the one keeping it all above board sonny jim.

manwells.

Maybe if you dropped the price a bit instead of keep posting the same add you might sell it instead of just p1ssing some folks off?

This is absolutely pathetic boys – you should be ashamed of yourselves

I before E except after C

didn't you go to school?

who needs sky tv when this row will go on forever between me and thee! lol lmao happy new year barry!

Manwells, have you ever considered a career in PR or marketing?
🙂

Well spotted Uplink.

Gotta say I'm starting to agree with manwells.

So he doesn't use the forum as a "community" and appears to have posted the same advert a few times, he also made a mistake in the ron spencer saga.

But (isn't there always a but) you are coming across as an internet bully barry and if there is one thing worse than a internet hardman it is an internet bully.

barry, why are you pished with him mate…..
is he a shop selling on classifieds??
if so a banning should be in order i think.

omg at this rate we will have 100 posts for midnight i am more popular than gordon brown! lol

sometimes this forum makes me ashamed to be a mtb, sometimes it makes me wonder what the point of evolution is for if this is what it will all comes to.
My view Manwell lower your price or Ebay it but your right to keep posting it at whatever price you wish.
BB – what did you expect with that as an opening e-mail? Then a thread on it WHY?

There are worse classifieds abusers than Manwells. Perhaps Barry could get all Equalizer on them?

^ It wasn't my email! it was from him to me!

You mailed him in an attempt to provoke a response then started a thread about his reply. Or am I confused?

ok this comment – my error not an e-mail you posted this in the forum then?
did you expect him to be nice to you as a result?

instead of the equalizer, i was thinking "Dexter".

have the classified rules been broken in some way? if so use the report post link.

the reason my bikes are for sale is because me and my family were involved in a very serious rta and i am unable to ride again so i suppose this puts all this stupidity into context really! as for bethells comments about shit bikes i think most folk would agree that the stumpjumper and rockhopper are already in the mountain bike hall of fame as two of the best bikes ever! i rest my case i only wish that bethel would have been in my shoes for one day and felt the pain of my injuries!

i agree wholeheartedly with what junkyard said ❗

I love his choice of language here towards you.
You did well not to reply Manwells.
Barry seems to be such a nice guy.

lol. You're all welcome to him.

# No reposting an ad for 24 hours after it was first posted.

Looks like there is a possibility this rule has been broken, with at least 2 posts repeated in the same day.

(Of course a mod would need to check the post times properly)
