I'm starting to get suspicious...

The kharma on this board is simply too good. And everybody's having way too good a time. I have a theory that the forum only has 5 members (4 excluding me), and a man using a "JJ" alias has 10 other aliases with whom he regularly converses. In other words, JJ is talking to himself in order to keep the thread and post count high (>19,000 of his "own"), which in turn keeps the forum AND the Rolex brand credible.

I also have it good authority that JJ gets a kick-back for every Rolex sold to TRF members. How Rolex keeps track of this is beyond me, but what would I know.

Just a hunch (or two).

On a (slightly) more serious note: this forum reminds me of one of my other favourites - paneristi.com.

Yeah, Nick, this place is special. It seems, sometimes, that watches are secondary around here. It's the people we come here for

Hi, this is JJ, I mean Dave and I agree with Arthur 110%. On RARE occassion I've posted on one of the "other" Rolex sites and I've always found those people pompous and ready to start an argument or find a tiny flaw in any comment that's made. They all think that they're experts, though they're not.

Instead of taking information that's provided and using it or not using it, they love to criticize and critique. I believe that their underwear is a little too tight over there and they all need a little action on the side.....if you know what I mean.

I guess they don't have sheep where they come from!!

Hi, Yes JJ is the life of this TRF, its his second home or should I say 1st.
hats off to Zamina for her endurance (JJ talks of rolexs & counts his sheep in his sleep).
I repeat again that its he who has introduced me to rolex forum for which I shall always show my gratitude.
I, till date have not met JJ in person , but his flowery posts always makes me feel that I have been with him for years.

I will say this once and once only.

I AM NOT JJ
I do not like sheep. But I like my rack of lamb cooked medium (only slightly pink). Other racks I like raw and bare. (Again this is further proof I am not the BKL.)
