Default Would you be angry? Morals of a mate?

If you had shown your best mate how you make a spare bit of cash, trusting that they wouldn't screw you over by stealing your idea, would you be pissed off if they started doing exactly the same thing, using the same company and taking away leads from you?

What someone you knew designed and produced a great ECU and then made the biggest ever pigs ear of getting it to market and then fucked over and lied to loads of people and almost got himself beaten up by lots of unhappy customers?!?!?!?!

Did your 'Friend' call it the S.U.C.S S8?

Lee,

I have resolved all my past issues and yes I made a pigs ear of marketing it but it was all my own work technically.
I had the balls to try and failed then admitted my mistakes..so fucking what..old news !

We cant all be good at everything .....if only I was as perfect as yourself then I would have someone special like Maria...Oh wait ..you dont

Perhaps if all the city traders like your self were not so fucking gready then this country would be in a better shape..

Simon, to be fair, last time someone visited you to talk to you about an ECU, your wife was apparently living with your identical twin second cousin or something, so Id say if ever anyone was in a glass house over their lovelife and shouldnt be throwing stones its you mate

Fair enough on all of the points, go for the jugular if you like on a personal level, if thats what you want..... BUT dragging Maria into it is well out of order IMHO, I don't know her or Lee, but I'm sure both parties will be hurting, so not really fair to drag someone not involved in the debate into it is it really?

I would say no, it it not the behavior or a mate, at the least I would have expected them to ask to come in on it with you.

BUT... why tell someone who to make some spare cash in this current climate - keep it to yourself ??

Errrr??? when did I say it wasn't your own work?

I said you designed and produced a great ECU?

Is that not a compliment from me? I thought it was!

No-one really ever criticised your products as far as I was concerned? just your endless bullshit, false promises and LIES UPON LIES!!!

I thought you would have seen the funny side of it! IIRC we have had a luagh about it on here before?

clearly not after your response!

Why joke about me being perfect? have I ever claimed to be?

Thought dragging Maria in was a bit nasty for her not for me to be honest!!!

and I'm not a city trader.... I'm a broker. So not only is your joke not funny... its not even remotely accurate as a don't work for a bank and therefore have NOTHING to do with the current economic crisis.

Other than that... a superb response to my little joke Simon

Lee your the one who bought it up about the ECU in the first place!! Unneccesary IMO!

People dont need to get personal over it.

Although the comment about the city traders is fair IMO but not necessarily fair directed at lee, im sure lee was following the protocol and meeting targets he was set. Its the clowns who worked in the very top levels who are to blame, not your average £75K city trader.


Anyway, back on topic, Wil, yout mate is a cunt

@ This Thread.

To the original poster - no, he is not a mate, pretty fucking shady way of conducting himself in my opinion.
