funking hell, I love this place again.

 

I love that there are pleas to the mods to close this thread down. Frankly, I quite enjoy a public flogging!

1. This is the hub. We are judge, jury, executioner and keyboard warrior, uncannily in synch with one another. Its a supremely satisfying experience. Summary Judgment is entrenched into our civil procedure.

2. This is not the ICC. So, I don't think the government would want to unsubscribe. They should have brought Al Bashir to us, our jurisdiction extends to any IP address. Much to Mr Lauer's "funking" chagrin.

3. You say the thread will not end well. You forget that it did not begin well - an innocent guy is €600 down. Multiply by 13 to translate that into localized pain. Your "version is just a version" shpiel is, with respect, lacking in merit. Mr Swen has seen the thread. He has elected not to give a contrary version. Ergo - he does not dispute the facts. These facts do not do him credit.

3. 1 & 2 are in jest. (Another defense to a defamation suit.)

Missed your posts lately, Harry as always love your work ;)

Let me restate that. Who WAS Swen Lauer ?

At least on here.

Hahaha. Proof of the Hubs undisputed, unchallenged and undeniable powers on them interwebs.

 

Go see if you can find those okes who sold chinarellos in the same location in "Fourways". Not to be. Mr. Swen has to find himself a new market on another planet. No apes here.

 

Kiekiekiekieeeee.....

Guys, seriously?

Notwithstanding the gripes of the OP but the direction this has taken is idiotic. The reason behind this mishap may be trivial and not everybody is constantly online...

Honestly OP, you should have stopped that long time ago.

JMHO.

I wonder if W2W and Full Sus magazine are going to be looking for a new training coach. Not good for your brand image to be associated with a character with dubious ethics

Hey SCD. I also think Swen has had ample opportunity to come forward and make good on his misdeamenour. Whether he did it here on the forum or in a private email..it does not matter. But that would have been the honouable thing to do. I'm guessing he has been keeping tabs on whats happening here. Its poor and an admission of guilt in my books.

V12man mentioned SARS but I do not understand why the OP paid in Euros for the program.

 

I am not a South African Exchange Control Regulation expert but I am sure that a South African based person / company may not charge a fellow South African in Euros for services rendered.

 

According to Sven's website http://swenlauer.com/contact/ he is based in Stellenbosh, South Africa.

The pricing on his website is in ZAR. http://swenlauer.com/services/coaching/overview/

I would contact the Reserve Bank to investigate.

The direction has been strange, from Swen that is. Any of these replies from him would have defused the situation:

 

- The OP is misrepresenting the facts but I can't comment about it here

- Sorry guys life was hell the last while and I dropped the ball but I'll make it up

 

People are reasonable but if you choose to let things spiral they will.

If you cannot commit to 6 weeks of email replies and coaching then don't take the mans money. No correspondence, no mention to the guy. I am sorry, but without comment you are accepting the facts as correct.

If this clown was in a position to send a mail to the OP threatening him with some funky language, he had the opportunity to respond to this thread or at least do a transfer.

 

I had a little sympathy for him when I heard about his series of accidents, but that disappeared when I found he was fit enough to send a few mails to the OP. I'm tired of 'service providers' trying to rob me around every corner, name and shame the lot of them. The EasyBike thread on this very forum is a prime example of this.

 

Having seen them fix the problem, I'll continue to consider them as an option in future! Not this clown!

Sorry, Harry, not a schpiel just a hypothetical. If the OP was wronged in the manner stated, I wish him all the best. And if the Swan oke has 'elected' alternative, valid means of action, then I hope things turn out well,or at least not end up in additional hassle. Having been through a similar thing where I had paid for a report from a very limited supplier of the particular expertise, I was also given a massive runaround. So I understand the OP's frustration.

The best option for Accused #1 would have been a very calm response stating either his version of events or an apology. Matter resolved. He didn't which leads me to believe either:

 

1) Challenged EQ

2) Serious interwebz naivety

3) Guilty

4) Combination of the above

 

Either way, 1 000 000 internet points deducted from the Swenster.

As said a few times above,,a simple explanation post and an eft would have cleared up the possibility of a simple " ball dropping" situation to what could be a very costly escalation ,,, me personally I would pay the EUROs even If I wasn't at fault and I would have legally destroyed the OP if he is out of line(I am on the OP side of the fence) as thing stands, until the "gent" makes an appearance but I don't see that happening
