Yipper provides excellent entertainment but he has no idea he does as self awareness is not exactly his forte either.
Any entertainment value was short lived imo. Funny to start but now I just feel quite sorry for him/it. Its gone on so long now, people are wised up to the made up nonsense and the conviction with which his posts read in the main, so it's just all a little bit sad and desperate.

Agreed. It’s mostly just “well phrased” trolling now.

His/her/it's approach is quite clever.

Post something at the borderline of the posting rules. Never being rude.

But clearly provocative and with intention to agitate/troll. Some posts are remarkably constructive. But the rest seem to be him/her/it picking a random thread and seeing how best to stir and get a reaction.

Sad, really.

Oh, and if it's not a returning banned poster then, in the words of Paddy Ashdown in 2015, I'll eat my hat.

Has any Ferrari, lambo or porsche dealership got four brand new cars for sale.
Yep, plenty and even more parked round the back that they are not even allowed to advertise.
I'm in and out of dealerships everyday of the week and maybe have access and contacts that others don't.
Tell me what you want and I'll have it delivered next week

McLaren global sales growth has crashed from roughly 99% to 2% in recent months, so there may be growing pressure for dealers to get out there and get promoting harder.

Anyone else wondering if 'Stairdominator' is the same person?

Same desperate attention seeking MO but more passive aggressive.

Indeed - very similar posting style and the same passive-aggressive provocation.

There really are some strange (in this case I think, slightly sad) folk in this world - but I guess we need wierdos to calibrate 'normal'.

And a returning banned poster at a guess.

I reckon there's a fair few. All seem to share the same sort of viewpoints too.

He's got a friend that works for Peugeot now hehe

Yipper said:
Know someone who works for Peugeot in Paris and the benefits they get are incredible. Free food, heavily subsidized holidays and weekend breaks, big car discounts, etc. Renault workers in Paris also get similar and even better deals.

That's probably true, I bet the component and manufacturing cost of a Peugeot 208 is well under £5k

To a guy who's clearly in huge turmoil, has been suffering from depression, and who's partner has just announced that their relationship is over, and is threatening to move three hours travelling distance away and take their two very young children (aged 2 and 4) with her.

Yipper said:
Just let her go. Move on. No stress.
Seriously, what does this child have to write before something is done about him?

It probably is true, French workers in highly unionised roles have a lot of benefits.

But what value does it add? every time "it" posts something such as this people comment saying it is probably true even though it's from Yipper, that's pretty obvious.

If i posted that most cars also have round wheels in a car related thread it doesn't add any value to the thread does it?

And Yipper doesn't know anyone that works for Peugeot, just as he doesn't have millionaire friends next door or just like he doesn't watch people fawn over Jeff Bezos when at meetings at the Amazon head office and that he hasn't actually been to any of the places he recommends people on here to visit etc. To do so would require one of two things, either for his mum to open his bedroom curtains or that he no longer continues to be a BOT.

It's an odd mix though. Some of his/her/its posts are lucid and constructive.

I'm guessing a bot most of the time and then occasionally a human will post in order to appear normal and avoid the possibility of a ban.
