Adrian (hi Adrian) is not a troll. I think Adrian is someone who has a difficult time focusing. I believe this is Adrian-


"Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts that produce uneasiness, apprehension, fear, or worry; by repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing the associated anxiety; or by a combination of such obsessions and compulsions."

I don't think there should be a pile-on with Adrian and admittedly I was like a dog with a bone because of the flippant attitude towards reneging on auctions. The mistakes are one thing...and I have made as many or more than almost anyone on the board. But, I know they were mistakes, admitted them...paid the price and haven't done them again. I haven't "tried my best" not to do them, I haven't done them. All this said, it's another day, so let's see how it goes. Adrian is on the board but for the time being won't be participating on the BST. I can't imagine me saying I pay for 99% of my stuff and that is ok. I would be reneging on at least 5-6 deals a yr. That is unacceptable. And the quoted 99% was low anyway, from information I have (from Adrian himself).

and....I think stopping this train wreck and getting back to cards will be good.....so the lock is in order.
