Paphitis speaks for himself.

Mostly though, he tends to talk about ongoing or future events. In his own inimitable style. Not so easy to "substantiate". His talk about what's been happening in and around Bakhmut - a struggle which has been ongoing for over 9 months, resulting in many thousands of deaths (has Prigozhin got over his hissy-fit about pulling out, unless supported more yet? :roll: ) - gets glossed over with the usual crap. Despite all the effort and losses Stalingrad though has yet to fall it seems.

The past, such as there being differing views on the Nord Stream incident, is less problematic. Despite your absolute faith in an 86 year old (Happy Birthday today Semond!) guy that works from an office in Chicago, reliant upon "undisclosed sources" and looking to rediscover his long-past glories, there actually isn't any credible, conclusive proof of who carried out the sabotage. You can adopt the usual bully-boy, piss-taking mode but that's the way it is. I have no idea who did it or why, just like most.

Like a lot of folk with your shade of views, you tend to adopt certain "sources", promoting them as founts of truth, when in reality it amounts to nothing more than confirmation bias. IE - you find somebody whose output fits your agenda.

BTW. On a forum where there can't be much more than half a dozen regular posters, what sort of person has a "list" of those he wants to get rid of? :roll: It certainly can't be a very long one. Moreover, what exactly is your aim? What are you looking to end up with? Take a while to think about it.

Well, I imagine you think that comes across as very clever. In reality though, it's just a juvenile way of avoiding addressing awkward issues and I think, anybody, other than committed "team" members would realise it's that. You clearly don't have valid answers.

You mention "assumptions". In this particular case your assumption that Mr Hersch is absolutely, always, right is just that. I'm not sure what "spins" you're on about. Nor the "over and over". :?

A simple question. Would you like me to leave this forum? I've gotten the distinct impression for some time that it's your earnest desire to reduce it to a very small group of like-minded people who can exchange material which reinforces each others views. Very small being 4, it seems. How that makes a "discussion" platform beats me. I imagine it gives you some sort of feeling that you've in some way "won" though. In which case I will be happy to help out.

If you do, then - despite 7 years and 5000 post - I will oblige.

Otherwise, I would ask you to cut out all the bully-boy shite and discuss matters in a reasonable way. Answering points raised with reasonable (capital R) counter views. Just like any civilised discussion forum.

Not a lot to ask I think.

I'll take a "Who cares, please yourself" as an implicit foxtrot oscar.

What's your pleasure?

Try not to answer looking through the bottom of a bottle/glass. :wink:

Why is every post about you and your hurt feelings ..... and rarely about the thread content itself? :?

That's because poor LR is suffering. These are his symptoms:


Being overly boastful, exaggerating one’s own achievements
Pretending to be superior to others
Lack of empathy for others
Looking down on others as inferior
Monopolising conversations
Impatient, angry, unhappy, depressed or has mood swings when criticized
Easily disappointed when expected importance is not given
Always craves for “the best” in everything
Has a very fragile self-esteem


Once you understand what goes on in his mind it all makes sense.

Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental health condition in which people have an unreasonably high sense of their own importance. They need and seek too much attention and want people to admire them. People with this disorder may lack the ability to understand or care about the feelings of others

I am afraid for cure he will have to go to a quack and pay for it.

More assumptions. I don't drink AT ALL.
btw that's the only thing I 've read from your post, and even that, by accident, probably because it was the last line. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I personally can't figure what's the matter with LondonRocky.
But judging from what he says, he sure has a lot of things in common with our resident Nato General.
No1 is their causing vexation, combined with wasting everyone's time.

I have had it from good authority he does suffer and show all the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder.
