Debate House Prices

    The more house prices fall the more rubbish sleazy Sibley posts on this forum. There's got to be a link between the two.


    I agree. The sleazy village idiot is getting worried judging by the number of rubbish posts he is making

    I'm sorry you feel like that. I don't feel twisted at all. I thought the idea of message boards was to have a little debate. No harm intended from me. I like a giggle as well but some of here only like things serious. Gloomy won the poll anyway.




    I never started. My wifes Thai remember. She could crack my skull in I reckon.:rotfl:

    So you are married yet only a few weeks ago you were boasting about sleeping with loads of women in Thailand?

    Look back at the last page of posts, and ask who the desperate pathetic one is again.

    You're all as bad as each other.

    On the contrary Joe. I've found people on here to be fundamentally decent as a whole, but they do resent being taken for idiots by - frankly - idiots and Sibley is one of those.

    He paints a picture of his life which is illusory. He could get away with it before, because he assumed people wouldnt know the reality. I know the reality of the expat community over there and his life is a sham.

    Which is fine so long as you don't try lording it over people like he does.

    Nobody would give him a hard time generally; he brings it on himself.

    If all the usual suspects stopped rising to his bait would he continue posting?

    doire. I think we should start a collection to get Sibley somewhere decent to live. It really can't be nice for him having to live in a slum.


    Just think of his neighbours having to put up with him :eek:

    I, like you it seems, really wish people would stop posting it and stating how you can see where we are in the cycle. Yes, I personally think we will see a second fall. However if prices stagnate now we'll have seen a cookie cutter one step drop, there is absolutely nothing about the graph that 'proves' we will see further falls, or about the market so far that proves the graph fits the current paradigm.

    As each one fail we will end up with the graph stretching back to sometime like 1783 :)
