    STRing in 2007 was a bad move?
    Please explain.

    See if you can answer this first: What has been achieved by selling to rent 4 years ago?

    Fascinating addition to the thread.
    Is it really required?

    That said I only went back three ages and none of the posts seem to be on topic.

    This board really has dropped in quality.
    No wonder it's hidden

    Yes it was required.

    Sibley and all his other sad little identities are completely full of 5hit, so to me he is just a knob ed who is around to have the pi55 taken out of him.

    What i sad to him in that post is what i would have said to him in real life.

    I don't think there is much danger of anyone thinking that you are geneer, your quoted post above is all the evidence that is required to prove otherwise. Rather than coming back arguementively which you could have chosen to do so, you came back with a simple reflective response, sticking to the point 100%.

    :rotfl:Looks like our champion chess player is still managing some top notch ignoring.

    Check and mate to geneer I think.

    Why then lower yourself to their level?
    If you truly believe that of them (him) better not to let them (him) wind you up

    This speaks volumes.
    Sometimes in life you have to consider if this sort of actions is really worth it.
    What does it achieve?

    I can understand that sometimes you can get drawn in / dragged down to the common denominator, however it is nothing better than primary school responses.

    Then again, saying one thing and doing another is something you've demonstrated You're good at.

    Now now, these meaningless averages doesn't tell the full story.
    Who has sold at peak in their local area?

    nice one, you made me have a wry smile.

    I think we can agree that the number of Mr Who's who capitalised on selling at peak and in an area that has seen falls (not all areas have) is so minute that you have to wonder why it's worth discussing.

    I think we can agree that STR isn't really worth discussing at all.

    I did hope we could agree that someone selling at the peak of a bubble maximised the sale price of their asset, but apparently thats not to be.
