I've said it before but anyone can say anything on here, especially things like Im on new stuff blah de blah and there's no way of proving them wrong, that said it comes across as those people are desperate to be respected, give their massive ego a boost or just try and wind other people up. The irony is that infact it just makes them look a lying twat, either that or a twat with a massive ego problem.

Most of the thread's on here these days are just arguments between these types which descend into stupidity and the same issues been debated time and again. BORING.
Believe me, I'm not oblivious to the fact I am garnering absolutely no respect here. Most of these revelations are only coming out as a result of me defending my original argument. If people keep poking me, prodding me; constantly asking me to defend my position...well I really have no choice but to tell it as I see it. When I first came on to the site, I didn't even want people to know who I was. Trying to cut me down as just self-absorbed is just another way of diverting the topic. However it seems to have more than ran its course.

I really have nothing to add, 11 pages full of pointless rubbish, including my own where I just argue for sense but even I know my arguing is futile.

There is nothing wrong in owning a push bike. I own one and I ride it mainly to keep some semblance of fitness about me. I hate this veneer of superiority that some people have. "Ooooh can't be seen riding a push bike, he must be a pauper" since when have we become a nation of snobbish sneering canutes? Who honestly cares if that's all he could afford?

Ruler - training individuals up is fundamentally wrong in the greater scheme of things. It is essentially creating competition and contributing to the saturation point. Anything in life whether it be various forms of gambling, start up business, stocks and shares, innovation, trading, once an edge disappears and more and more people join the party it becomes less and less profitable to the point where it fails. I've been playing fruit machines 15 years and the only person I have got involved is my surveillance man who I am 100% certain is not going to be responsible for bringing others onto the scene in any significant way. The realisation that I should not bring others onto the scene was present almost straight away for me and has always been something I've practiced no matter how friendly I am with someone or how much I'd like to do someone a favour. If I'd gone down that route I wouldn't be in the position I am today.

The same problem arises with fruit machine methods, I'd say around 85% of the playing population can be deemed as the 'wrong hands' as it will normally lead to a flow of information that will mean the whole playing population will get to know about it in a short space of time. A good thing I've noticed in the last 12 months is that good information is been kept under wraps and I think a couple of information chains that were middle tier have possibly had their supply line cut. This is contrary to the previous 18 months where there were good tricks getting leaked well before their sell by date. We like to get around 18 months out of our methods so we go to great lengths to stop any potential breach. This isn't selfish, we work hard at what we do and get good rewards for it, it's simply business and I wish everyone out there well but creating new players is something I'll never agree with.

Glendale - I don't the exact details of individuals but I just know that these lads were based around that Chester area near Durham. The figure being branded about at the time was around 20 extra individuals had come on the scene. These lads were actually providing info so they were 'allowed' to play in certain areas and they were basically going about mouthing off to anybody they came across about what they did. Like I say, it was fairly common knowledge in that area that new pockets of players were starting off all over the place because of these youngsters. Whoever they are, they are of course going to deny it but as far as I know the situation was known to be fact.

The Chief is part of my operation now as a player after spending around 5 years as full time surveillance. His footprint will go unoticed by 99.99% of players.

Regards, Sir Linesman
