Anyone else got a PM from treytrey saying BAS has left? - Genuine or Hoax?

eveares · 1 Aug 2016

Got a PM from the user treytrey claiming to be BAS saying he has left the forum for reasons that I will not disclose in this thread. Suffice it to say it was on one of my recent threads.

Any truth to this PM that I got, or has someone being trolling around with this account that has the same password as the name?

Hope he has departed, he was/is a ****.

Won't be missed.

So have I.
Doubtful it would be a hoax, since it would be instantly disproved if BAS posts again.

It is genuine.

He opinions were almost always sensible and correct but he was not very good at getting the message across to those who needed to be told.

His knowledge was almost 100% correct. But he was a ****.

And he really didn't see what was wrong with the way he spoke to people!

Did he go or was he shoved?

BAN'S 'people skills' were a little fraught, plenty hereabouts cannot bother to spell or punctuate, so people tend to be just people ! Worse to day with two liner #Twits, I wish my world was that simple.

Plenty of us have learned through his posts where to look, and at times how, so if he has left the room, then the Notter's will be the poorer.

BAS has left before, been to and left many a forum... Including (unrelated) sometimes waspish letters to the Independent - back in the day.

He must be getting on in years now, so maybe hanging up the keyboard...

He will return.

I've just ordered a **** load of bunting from Amazon Prime, and hope it's here later this afternoon for a massive party tonight.

The DiyNot "Complete **** of the Year" Award will finally have a different winner this year.

Misunderstood? Like Hitler, Pol Pot, Mugabe, Hussain you mean.

No, his opinions were just his opinions. Not correct, just complete bollarx.

He's the horrible know it all **** down the pub, knows everything, but knows nothing. And no friends.

Correct. Then used pedantic semantics to try and dig his way out. Morally blind too.
