I use MySQL, Postgres, Informix, DB2, Oracle, etc.

I don't consider writing sql statements programming, but DBA's are hardly underpaid. What's your point again? ah, forgot. just another useless comment

definitely C.

Oh, THAT's why you know him (you're playing stupid here)... and again, over a year later. So you didn't know the guy you tried to buy the the interceptor x was the same guy getting the 20b conversion and the owner of the car you've seen dozens of times while trolling around mazsports shop? :icon_bs:

:icon_bs:

Try days. That whole 20b thread fiasco happened towards the end of december, you started this thread on January 1st.

I can almost guarantee I will never owe you money.

The only way I could see that happening is if:
1) you grow some balls and decide to drag race me
2) you decide to make it interesting by making a friendly wager
3) you actually win

So like I said, I will never owe you money.

Yes. Clearly you have no idea how many people I chat with or how many items I've bought and sold. I haven't gone to a local car meet that I haven't seen a fellow RX-8 owner with parts that used to be installed on my car.

Remember, when I was buying the int-x, John was not known for the 20b swap. He was a nobody and had few posts to his name. I had no reason to recall him as the guy who owed me money later on.


What happened to your claim of having nothing to prove? It sounds like you have something to prove despite your constant claim otherwise. Of course it's easy for you to bring it up constantly after I said I had no desire to damage my new transmission. You have less to worry about, after all you're not even in the same league as my car. Maybe *I* have nothing to prove to you. But let's conveniently ignore that and bring it up a few more times in exactly the same way as before and repeat it over and over in this thread.

btw, I looked up the dates, it looks like there was a 2 week period between me asking Stick for the money and him putting me off then pretending he couldn't read my posts, till this thread was created.

Still, it wasn't till after exhausting my options privately did I create the thread.

Very hard to swallow, especially when you can't tell the difference between two weeks and several months. From several months to two weeks... big difference. I'd still go with option C.

Much of those two weeks were during the holidays, which you probably didn't log in/post much since you probably weren't "working." As for the "nothing to prove. I never said that, and it doesn't even apply here. You're doing a good enough job twisting your own words, quit trying to twist mine.

where's the trainwreck smilie when you need it ...

Nice. So now my work is in quotes. I guess you're right, maybe I don't work at all.

I must admit, I get some satisfaction in knowing how much of your time has been wasted endlessly posting here without any rhyme or reason. Lucky for me I type really quickly and don't need to brood over my words.

Let's see what else you come up with.

Well, you did say earlier you post on here while you're working, right? I wonder how many thousands of dollars have been spent by your employer so you can get up near 9000 posts? hmm...

As for your satisfaction: Ignorance is bliss...

Yet I'm also the most productive programmer in my team :)

I produce more than double the lines of code than anyone else here and also the least amount of bugs.

Go figure.

Because they're probably playing World of WarCraft instead of posting on some forum. ;)

That means absolutely nothing coming from someone who confuses "several months" with "2 weeks."

:boring:

Only the sysadmins play WoW.

I'm not attacking either of you two. Cut the crap and take it to PM please. I just want mysql101 to get his money back. Although this is entertaining, it is pointless for both of you. I'm not partial to either of you, but like I said earlier, I just want mysql to get his money.

I'm all for it :)

I just haven't figured out how to make Bastage shut up yet. So I'm seeing if I can make him buffer overflow when I make irresistible posts he MUST reply to.

See diagram for details: https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...5&d=1203524341

Consider it done.:)

...sigh....how hard is it to just pay the man, seriously.

Charles has taken it upon himself to try to broker a deal. I think it's a waste of his time to get involved, but we'll see where it leads.

...and if John doesn't come through at least you will have an objective person who can vouch for your perspective. Not that it matters but voyeurs will be curious just the same.

If this thread goes underground to PM's I will punch a puppy

^LOL, but seriously, I dont care about hearing it. Think about it, go to the performance section if you want to bark about who's car is faster (no judgements there either ;) ). Seriously, even there though, it's not really fun to hear the same thing over and over again. Stick, just give him his damn money! lol...

Red, it's in the works as we speak. After this I shall be referred to as "Godfather", making offers none can refuse.:lol2:

^ha lol... Im glad you could help them both. Although, in my personal opinion, stick should have just found a way besides putting it through you. thanks though, it solves a long ass thread :) well, kind of...

I was asked to help out due to a breakdown in matters. I figured wtf? The check is on the way to my house, so I am told.

let's see. i acknowledged i owed jason $50 long time ago. i offered to pay the full amount long time ago. i told him i just can't pay via paypal because i do NOT have paypal account (he sent payment to my father's account originally); yet he keeps demanding i pay via paypal. apparently the only way for jason to receive my check was via a THIRD party, so i apologize if figuring that out took some extra time. check's on the way, and he'll get his $50. i do apologize for not refunding the $50 one year ago, but you, jason, never mentioned it to me either.

while i'm still finishing my microwaveable dinner, let me answer just one more question for ya. you're again calling me a liar because if i can read and reply to your thread postings, you must not be on my ignore-list? and by that logic i must've received your pms but chose to ignore them because i didn't want to pay you back your $50? you perhaps don't know this because you're on this forum 24/7, but if you actually log-off (try it sometime), you can then see all postings by everyone even if they're on your ignore-list. go re-read my 20b thread (you obviously have the time) or ask a moderator if you still doubt that i didn't put you on my ignore list last year. I NEVER got any pms from you asking for your refund. and I acted promptly to pay you back when your pointed me to this thread in another posting in joel's thread which i enjoy following.

and for someone telling everyone, "i'm applying to law school" you lack so much logic that your claim of someday going to law school is just laughable. by the way, how's that going? it usually doesn't take 2yrs to "apply" to law school unless regurgitating such statement has been your only way of being accepted in your own little world, or you got rejected from every single 3rd tier law schools in your community last year. regardless, my suggestion is that you just keep programming. it'd save you lot of embarrassment in the courtroom. or.. better yet, how about just continue living on this forum...? continue acting like the virtual righteous lawyer in all dramas and vendor politics between 13 year old pre-puburtal boys and 40yr olds alike. and who knows? perhaps one day, just one day, on one glorious day, your dream may come true, and you may actually become a real moderator for this forum. have you thought about the endless possibilities? it'd give you even more access to people's privacy, so you can make your absurd and irrelevant points all over this forum all year long.

and to give you more reason to waste more hours on this thread, let me say it again: i wasn't sigtech, and if you still think so and want to call me a hypocrite, please go screw yourself and back up your claim.

-your sensei

ps. i'll reply to more of your questions/concerns in my next microwave dinner time. maybe tomorrow...? this wknd...? you keep writing until then.

Great to hear. If Charlies receives the check I'll gladly delete this thread.



I'm waiting till March. My employer will foot the bill for the courses. I don't need to pay a dime for it.



That's bullshit. Even after all the stuff you've been through with me, wouldn't you have realized by now that I log and store everything? That includes my outbox and inbox of PM's. I warned you before not to call me on something you can't back up. The last time this happened you claimed you didn't owe me any money. Immediately after I posted proof that you did.

So here we go again - Below you'll finds two of my PM's to you (as I said, I encourage any moderator to check my outbox to verify the validity). Clearly I asked for payment, and you ignored me till I ended up creating this thread. Even then, I Pm'ed you again and asked you to post here so this thread wouldn't be one sided.

John, save the nonsense until AFTER we get this deal done. Don't screw your representative by shooting your mouth off, no matter what anyone is saying, before I can get the check to Jason. Once he has his money and my job is done you can say whatever you like. This has the potential of making my efforts futile.

BTW, would I be the 13-year-old or 40-year-old in the previous rhetoric?:lol2:
