Hi David
"JJ I am still awaiting your chairty, we wouldn't want people to think you're a liar."
David, please don't suggest what other people would think of me. They all got a mind of their own, so stick to what you think. If there was: Croatia x 1 David's = nobody would be allowed to have a mind ;D
Anyway thanks for your offer, that's very much appreciated and as I said I will pm you about the details. Jan

You completely missed my point. Whether or not we are all searching for the truth (I dare say some of us aren't!)...whose truth? Yours? Mine? The guy down the pub? The creature under the rock? George Bush? He'd probably "truthfully" state that there are WMDs on here. And for what purpose? It's true that Zagreb is the capital of Croatia - if someone posts that 100 times on here, are they being anti-Cro? Pro-Croatia? Useless? Obvious? Ignorant? Helpful to someone going on holiday to Porec? Unhelpful to someone buying a house on Hvar? You said "I'd like to point out that I never used rude swear words"...that's your truth, but it's not even true! Ahem, and don't forget the crude sexual references. Do I want the truth? Imagine, just imagine, if the truth was presented in a well written, constructive way. Instead...incessant childish name-calling and crude arguments. Yep, that's really going to help Croatia. Unfortunately, your behaviour on this forum since you joined (9th November) has been dubious at times. If you can try and avoid this until 18th December, you can have your stars back. And what's written by your name (which isn't untrue, I think you'll agree will be removed.

considering discussion about "truth" ... has anyone tried to type "failure" in Google and press "I'm feeling lucky" button ?

Anna,
I know you actually love me! Its your feelings of love that brings out the hate. They are quite close you know:) I am also a hot cookie, so I am used to it.
OK, I did make refernces, but they were not rude. Women in Cuba are easier then women in Saudi Arabia. Its a fact that Scandanivian women like English guys, local guys there are seen to be introvert, closed and generally a-emotional and they like english guys because we buy drinks, say what we think and are warm blooded. That is factual. Even though there are sexual connatations it is a factual statement.
As an Englishman, it is easier to find a girlfriend in Croatia than in Aberdeen in Scotland. That is also factual, as the stats show a better f-M ratio than in Aberdeen. If i was crude and the words and depections would have been much more base and explicit.
Finally, with regards to the truth - the truth is an objective thing. It is defined (at least it was when I was at Cambridge studying PPE) as being an absolute. It is someting that does not change with time, something that is eternally constant and unchanging. Maths, logic and hopefully morality/ethics are supposed to be absolute. If we know these, we supposedly know the truth and are enlightened people.
I strive to find the truth, but I am only human and like every other person on this planet, my judgement is clouded by emotion and subjectivity. Noddy will testify to that fact. But that doesnt preclude me (or any other human) from striving to find the truth. It is a noble endevour.
With the slander you put by my name you could be fair and write "emotional, short tempered and writes unpleasent things at times". I would be happy with that as it would not be untrue. An immature or childish person would not write such well constructed and logical posts or have such a strong level of support (even with his foes like gav and croam - or with neutrals like jj and irac). Re the stars I will soon get them back via my tremendous work load and post rates on here.
Be cool and be pip - change the nasty comment by my name.
I wish you a lovely weekend and happy reading.
Peace and love - respect!
ciao - pippo - the one and only 5 star general.

historical footnote to the above:
many individuals who spoke the truth were persecuted. This is happening to me. Ill give you some examples:
- the original followers of Jesus that spread Christianity - they were wiped out by the romans
- the first proponents that the world was round - laughed at and mocked by the establishment (hmm funny ring to that one)
- those that drove for the enlightenment (hence the outlawing and persecution of the Illuminati)
Just goes to show that this situation is not the first time in history.

A better one would be to type
"corruption and croatia"
That would be funny!

hey Anna, thanks for giving your friend dave a slap on the wrist with the quote "general bad forum behaivor" and pip and i "posts insults".
dave insulted way more than i ever did and mine was just in response to their crap cuz you weren't getting to them as fast as i was.
oh and thanks for branding us.
I'd like to remind everyone of the famous short story "the scarlet letter".
Thanks for the tatoo on my forehead and lumping me with pip and letting go of Dave with a slap on the wrist...dave your admitted friend(or business partner).
whatever.
PS don't act all high and mighty anyway...you love the extra hits to your website

I don't know Anna, and I think it is fair to say she is not very happy with me as I am the only person she has ever given a public reprimand, I just don't take it as serious as you. I'll give you one thing though, your branding is way better than mine ;D

pip: "* I didnt say anything about croams drug use or alcohol consumption that he didnt say or boast himself"
your a l liar. this is a false statement quoted from your post above.
you accused me of smuggling drugs. even if i was stupid enough to do something like that, which i am not, then i would be doubly stupid to admit it in public afterwards. I'm not that dumb. Thanks for misquoting me. If this was reality it would be called "slander."

I have issues Dave? Dave I feel sorry for you. If you are anything like the person you portray on this board then i really feel sorry for you. P.S. its 5am. shouldn't you be in sleeping next to your wife at this time of night/morning? or is arguing with your virtual enemies more exciting?

So after more than 500 posts and a few bad ones i deserve this "Engages in childish banter & posts insults Post count reset to zero Expires 18/12/05" even if you counted all my negative posts they amount to less than 1%. For less than 1% i deserve to be branded a child and insulter for a month? Your PM to me stated that this was a "warning". Clearly having that cool new tatoo on my profile is PUNISHMENT not WARNING. So you look at the bad 1% and judge me on that instead of all of the other comments i have made? real cool. Reminder: Just a few months ago I was the first one to defend your father against that maniac accusing him of being an anti-croat. I looked your father up online and quoted articles and links to his positive articles towards croatia in English newspapers. Then you give Dave a benign tatoo and make me look like the not a very nice person. thanks alot.

Hi David
After I sent you a pm yesterday giving you the details of our charity you deleted one of your own posts which I'm sure a few people here read. There you implied that people might think I'm a liar. Could you explain to me the reason(s) why you have deleted your post of yesterday where you said these words:
"JJ I am still awaiting your chairty, we wouldn't want people to think you're a liar."
My reason for bringing it up is that the charity and I as the chairman of the charity find it totally unacceptable that people for no reason at all imply that people might think that I might be a liar. It's not the profile we're trying to promote in the real or virtual world and it does nothing to support the charity or the unfortunate people we're trying to assist. Jan
