SE get rid of somewhereelse.

I like SWE, even if she is annoying. Sometimes she has smart things to say, other time smarmy, but what can you do?

I find the writing style headache inducing, but swe talks about real estate and posts unique information.

hey I'm just pointing out to SE on how they are losing out. It's for their own benefit to get rid of these bullies. Bullies are bad for business.

This is exactly why appointing vigilantes to vote off posters on easy street is a bad idea

AR, how much other unique information are we missing out on due to other people who don't post b/c of SWE.

RS, Again, I'm just letting SE know that She's bad for business.

steveF, is July 30th Backwards Day?

Nobody likes a cheerleader.

SWE, on the other hand, posts lots of valuable information and perspective.

i butt heads with SWE often, but I don't think its right for her to be banned - from my end i've never had her call me nasty names or use overly crude language, etc. she'll get a little over worked up, but who doesn't?

if you don't like her, use 'ignore'. that's what i do for w67, and its made my streeteasy experience substantially more pleasant.

"THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

THEN THEY CAME for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

THEN THEY CAME for me
and by that time no one was left to speak up."

Riversider, they should have come for you first.

can't call a cheerleader a BULLY though. Streeteasy knows exactly what I'm talking about and I'm sure has had meeting and meetings about what to do with cyberbullies. SE is losing out on the bucks though.

And, knowing your extreme prudishness, I didn't mean that in a dirty way, just a nasty way.

Riversider, they should have come for you first.
I know, I saw your website.

ah, lmfao.

printer, ignore is useless. Again how many message board commenters(hits) are non existant b/c of swe. Sucks for SE is all I'm sayin!

who said they'd appoint vigilantes?

Yes, steveF, SE is losing out on the bucks because of YOU.

Because people who want to sell, buy or rent housing in NY come to these boards for useful information, not rah-rah cheerleading, and then they're turned off by the useless drivel and useless re-posted drivel you provide ... which they can easily get from the glossy magazines that each brokerage produces and litters the NYT with.

who said they'd appoint vigilantes?

Who else would take the job?

"I know, I saw your website."

I'm glad you provided a major credit card and certified that you're over 18 years old.

is this the website where you sell your $93/lb tomatoes?

Dude, this is the name you've chosen..
http://www.alanhart.net/about-alan-hart/

you have so little regard for people, rs.

Riversider, what of it?

How does it make you feel?

Are there curse-words on the site?

What non-sense are you spewing now?

alanhart looks a lot like Golda Meir. I'd work on that if I were him.

lol, Bu what is a.r. spewing about now?

Is non-sense different from nonsense?

alan-hart might be different from alanhart

You have trouble with simple analysis and synthesis ... no wonder you're always so confused.

you think only a vigilante would be willing to take the time and volunteer. you don't think highly of people.

Thanks for all the support, guys.

But, just as I said in the other post, its the biggest sinners who generally cast the first stones.

SteveF really starting threads about *others* who should be banned. Thats classic.

you think only a vigilante would be willing to take the time and volunteer. you don't think highly of people.

yea, I pretty much stand behind that. Give a guy a whistle.....

I have a warning that seems tailored specifically for you, steveF, found it on msnbc.com:

"On Thursday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning that children who are inadvertently exposed to an estrogen spray to ease hot flashes can develop an upsetting reaction – premature puberty."

Read about it here:

http://bodyodd.msnbc.msn.com/

and watch out who you hang around with.

Where would he go if not somewhereelse?

Now, sense is being made. Nothing wrong with somewhereelse. You don't like him, ya don't read him.

You don't like w67th, ya don't have to read his comments.

If you have to get rid of people , it should people who want to get rid of people.

Huh? People are intimidated by somewhereelse?

intelligence is intimidating?
beats me. this was so out of left field.

steveF is a crybaby - it's the estrogen spray. Worse than locoweed.

apparently so.

out of left field? you must be joking. someone needs to dig up the SteveF thread where he told se that he would leave if such a thing didn't occur and they'd be sorry because people come to se because of steveF. and then he went off in a huff. but came back. ud didn't always agree with him.

I think steveF just lives to have people tell him how stupid he is. Some weird bop-bag pathology. Takes all kinds.

Riversider, I hate the fact that using Hitler and the Holocaust are so fashionable now. Yes, use Hitler/Holocaust on anything that irritates you. Don't like the president's health plan, he must be Hitler. Frappaccino from Starbucks has too much Frap and not enough cino, yes, Hitler must have been behind the counter with an apron on. Unlimited 30 day Metropass, now only 90 trips..Hitler. Do you really need to quote Niemoller here? SteveF and SWE obviously have a crush on each other and like 6 year olds in love, they must now punch each other to profess their love, but let's old off on the Third Reich references until they're warranted.

Depends on the use.

Tallisman, but I understand you in part. When everything is compared to the Holocaust, the term loses its meaning. And movies about Nazi German more often than not weaken the meaning of what occurred, but not every reference is done this way...

Somewhereelse is a girl!? That's news indeed. Anyway, people who start new threads calling for others' ouster should definitely be banned. Ba-bye, ShtieveF !

You know, talking about the Holocaust really does put a damper on this otherwise mirthful thread.

Can we please return to making fun of steveF - it's good sport, and a lot more fun.

sorry, stevejhx, have to chat with maly about swe. I posed the same question ages ago, and was told that swe, at the time 10022, I believe, was male. maybe metrosexual?

jhx, if you really want the mirth, help me find that earlier thread. sadly I think se may have gotten rid of it.

I thought that swe said that her husband was a high-powered lawyer and that she spent her afternoons watching reruns of Sally Jesse Rafael, but maybe I'm wrong.

See that other thread. No problems. For the most part,very civil.

Anybody on here that had family members murdered, or rounded-up and sent to concentration camps, other than me?

Stop being such posers.

and was told that swe, at the time 10022, I believe, was male. maybe metrosexual?

Do you realize how offensive statements like this are? I have to react because there are people out there
who believe a college degree makes one "enlightened"

sorry, can't turn an anti-person thread in such a direction. was just curious.

damn it all to hell where is that stevef thread?

An understandable point of view, stevef.

rs, get that stick out. I was making a joke, I seem to recall swe making some comments that would be consistent with the term which is but a term. If I was wrong, so sorry to swe. swe, did I offend you, and if so, sorry.

I don't even know if swe is a he or a she. clearly it couldn't have been personal.

WIth the crazy that's on StreetEasy-At-Night (it's like a whole other show here at night), I'm waiting for self-immolation of a persona:

Hi. I'm xxxx, and I'd like to be banned. Please ban me.

Or, that one group where, if you don't pay your debt back to them, they will kill one of their own:

If you don't leave, I'll ban myself.

"But, just as I said in the other post, its the biggest sinners who generally cast the first stones."

So it follows that (s)he who complains first, loudest and most often about straw men must be the biggest straw man artist of them all. Just sayin'...

is there a straw woman?

Does anyone else here besides me miss Sally Jesse Rafael? Aren't we sick of Oprah and other hangers-on, like steveF?

"is there a straw woman?" Good question. Ask swe, (s)he's the straw man expert.

NB: Politically correct, inclusive term would be straw person, of course

I never watched Sally Jesse jhx. now because of the kid I'm rather enamored of cake boss, or some such.

Never did the cake boss, but I do like The First 48. Watched it last night till the William Shatner show showed up, & I fell asleep on the couch.

I like the Spanish word for "straw man": "testaferro," which is literally, "ironhead."

steveF, your thoughts?

SkinnyNsweet: Always good to hear from you, you have a good sense of humor.

The overnight party swings into Sunday, when the mentally disturbed come on hard and fast. On Monday, they act as if Sunday never happened.

"Monday morning,
you sure look fine..." ("Monday Morning", Fleetwood Mac )

no no no,

there is only one character on streeteasy who should be banned, remember?

Personally, I think it is the person who suggested that the mother who killed her 4 kids is ok because the real estate industry is to blame. I think he lives on west 67th street.

Is the term metrosexual offensive? I don't get it.

swe is a he.

steveF just doesn't like to be right about anything, that's all.

A number of posters insist on calling male posters women. Very sophmoric.

jm I'm not sure rs knows the meaning of the word.

conradcounty: New here? That's O.K. It took me 6 months to figure all the players out.

W67th has his own unique writing style. Either you get it, or you don't. It's O.K., I don't know what comment you are writing about.

Do you really believe that a woman would kill her children, and then herself; if she was not mentally unstable?

Truth! Are you completely nuts?

who is swe? how do people know if swe is a he or a she?

Julia, swe is somewhereelse. clearly there is some confusion as to gender.

He posted a very funny comment, several months ago. In reference to an R.E. listing, online with video action camera.

He is a he. He has a wife. He has a kid.

About ready is making bad jokes. She likes her men emasculated. What ever?

I want some of whatever truth is taking.

Riversider: Do you want to vomit all night? Let her SE friends do the barfing.

She can't stay away.

She has no class.

Don't bother.

You speak Truth

Oh riversider...is this worthy of a holocaust survivor?

rs has a problem with sensitive men. ?

Riversider: Always.

"Rolling Thunder": (Speaking the Truth, in Native American language. As explained to Bob Dylan, by Chesley Millikin, see Ratso Sloman's book.)

I'm going out to the beach now.

Riversider, remember : Don't take the aboutready bait.
It's like eating garbage.

It is 9:40pm, on a Friday night. She has a husband and child.

Yet, she's on StreetEasy.

That says it all.

what do you have truth? my husband is due to arrive at 10 from a business trip and my teenaged daughter is at the movies with two friends, who will be going on vacation with us tomorrow.

why are you here at 9:40 on a Friday?

"I'm going out to the beach now."

... ocean or bay?

Swe is EddieWilson remember? Do you know any chicks named Eddie?

Short for Edwina, Edwige, Edcetera?

But swe is a guy. That's all, folks.

East Hampton. Ocean. My boyfriend's house. In the car, not "Here".
I own my Condo. Paid for it with cash.

You can try, but it won't erase your disgusting, vile meltdown.

alanhart: I have no problem with you. Why can't you let aboutready face the reality of her problems?

To the extent aboutready has problems, they're not the ones you're alluding to. The two of you had an offline misunderstanding, she brought it onto the boards in a manner that might have been a bit gentler but wasn't so awful, and things escalated. And now you're calling her names.

She had no "disgusting, vile meltdown", but tried in vain to get the troll (who clearly also posts under a "nice" username, which you're smart enough to realize if you put your ear to the ground and hear the rolling thunder, instead of fighting it). The troll has been disrupting this board for much longer and much more injuriously than you seem to realize, and it's not something to simply laugh off or "ignore".

Swallow your pride over that small offline misunderstanding and you will come to like and appreciate AR.

Say hi to the quahogs for me.

Wow. As someone who's received more than their fair share of bs from swe (who yes, also has appeared as EddieWilson and nyc10022), add me to the list of people who think he should definitely not be banned. Other posters past and present have the same shtick (and I would NOT qualify it as "intimidation" - that's a bit much, no?), and despite the highly arrogant writing style and (imho) extremely liberal interpretation of data and facts, nothing merits removal. I could do without some of the insults, but I've seen worse on here.

swe, I'd go so far as to tend the olive branch, but I have my doubts you'd reciprocate with much sincerity...

"(who clearly also posts under a "nice" username, which you're smart enough to realize if you put your ear to the ground and hear the rolling thunder, instead of fighting it)"

alan, sorry, I'm slow and haven't been paying much attention to it - who exactly is playing good cop?

No answer from alanhart. This is Truth's boyfriend speaking.

She was always very nice to aboutready. Until that twisted, mentally unstable woman jumped her, last Sunday.
That whacked-out piece of garbage was trying to engage Truth in an argument, earlier in the day, via e-mail. She started cursing at Truth in an e-mail. I had to step in, and advise Truth to not respond to aboutready, anymore.

Your friend, aboutready, carried her sick hatred into the evening, when she spewed it out, on SE. For all to read.

It was a meltdown that can not be denied, no matter how much you and your friend, aboutready try.

Give up, alanhart. You can't win with a friend like aboutready.

Failure is contagious. It stinks up everything and everybody who crosses its path.

What does she have, aboutready?
She has me.
She has a very successful business, with successful clients.
She earns good, honest money.
She has real friends, who love and care about her.

You have a very serious mental disorder.

Go see a shrink. I'm sure that you have medical insurance.

Truth's boyfriend?

What's your name?

Honesty?

Are you kidding?

well, I have the e-mail exchange. and she had the last word. and you definitely brought it out front and center.

it was interesting.

don't worry cc. he can buy my husband out 20 times according to truth on se. I'm sure you care.

She's still up, and on SE while her husband is home.

2:04am. Sunday morning.
Does your husband know that you identified one of his clients, in that e-mail?
I didn't ask.

Then you started cursing.

This thread should be deleted. I for one, look forward to somewhereelse, post they are the most informative on SE. I have never met and will never meet somewhereelse, but do consider swe a great person and a dear friend.

We're all as bad as each other, only in different, bizarre ways.

SWE I mostly tune out because he can't take the time to write anything that doesn't end up being a pile of slop. Overall he is boring with an underlying layer of arrogance, but hardly a remarkable trait here.

Truth and AR, what the hell? Go to the principals office or something. You guys are taking yourselves far too seriously.

And Alanhart "injuriously" ?

Now I see AR is off in a public huff. Oh well. Can we get back on subject now?

This sure debunks aboutready's idea that she is well-liked on these boards. I've always said she is one of the most disliked people here.

But streeteasy shouldn't ban her, or somewhereelse. They should be allowed to show everyone here how ridiculous are their comments.

where's spunky?

Where indeed?

wow...what is going on, i thought the hate had been banished..now who is truth, and what do you care why AR is online, it's her business and she adds so much to the RE diaglogue.

"she adds so much to the RE diaglogue."

I agree. For example, in this thread - http://streeteasy.com/nyc/talk/discussion/17818-80-carpet-rule look at all the valuable contributions to the dialogue she made:

"how the f did you take "a glimpse of their living room" without their consent?"
"how do you have a rats ass clue as to why they don't have floor coverings? "
"you're a tard. "
"btw, you're still a tard. no compassion."
"once again you're absolutely full of shit matt. absolutely. "
"maybe one day you'll have a kid with asthma. happy days!"
"do you get it now? your kid can be a fucking obnoxious loud nightmare "
"Matt, you are such an asshole. such an asshole."
"btw, you're a jerk of the highest order."
"good f'ng lord the assumptions here are crazy. maly, same for you."
"give me a f'ng break"
"and really. what an assholic thing to write"

Just remember, concensus is that only one person on streeteasy should be banned

If she could control and learn to deal with the outbursts, she could become a valuable contributor. One interesting comp posting does not negate or offset ten inappropriate outbursts.. or even one.
