Homes are on the average selling at 104% of asking. Average price per square foot is a whopping $1138. The trolls were claiming the median for this zip is $1.1M. Take a look for yourself and see who is way off.

I think generally you need to learn to be more receptive to criticisms, and more tolerant of different opinions.

Madhaus,

As another reader pointed out, the term “trolling” involves irrelevant, off-topic, or time wasting stuff. That description fits Pralay perfectly, and you’re a close second. Stop making baseless accusations. You have the same problem as Pralay in that you cannot accept a different point of view even though that position is shown to have more validity than your own opinion.

Exactly. That’s why I need to grab as much space as available so that I don’t get Priced Out Forever.

You don’t have to do what I suggest, though. It’s a free country and you can keep watering the lawns on each quote in separate posts if you wish. Your neighbors can then put up eight foot privacy fences to keep you off their lawns.

Multiple replies in the same topic makes little sense without threading, so it’s just taking up more space. And we all know they aren’t making any more space.

BTW Madhaus,
I don’t see much off-topic comment in this specific thread, until post #11 posted.

There are many ways to complain, including emailing to Burbed.

Yes sir!
Regarding multiple comments, I think that’s just a my habit which was developed in other forums to quote specific line/comment I am trying to address/respond.

This one is funny one.

Yes, we should discuss about real estate. We are not doing it for quite long time. Let RenterBob start the discussion. Guys, ready?

My take on it is that RE says a lot of things which, might appear genial, but in context are provocative, even mean, and Pralay reacts the quickest, the most often, and usually in the strongest language. P also posts 4-5 times in a row in the same topic, which makes all these arguments snowball more.

I agree that an “ignore this poster” option would make for a much more enjoyable site.

Pralay and RE:

In order for me to NOT click that option on you:

Pralay – combine your comments into one post at a time (per topic thread), stop feeding the troll, and stop reacting to the troll. While I agree with you, I still shudder each time you lose your cool.

RE – stop being the troll. Your little game of making claims you can’t support while demanding endless cites from others is tiresome. You’re usually not amusing and you’re rarely informative.

Both of you: stick to the properties under discussion like Aaron mentioned above.

This has been a public service message from the land of million dollar shacks.

Of course, what is the point of complaining about something which is not shoved upon you? It’s not telemarketer ringing your phone constantly at your dinner time. You can always ignore comments. I can complain about 100 things about other Burbed visitors (probably including you). But I don’t see any point for that.

Hahahhah. Written without a hint of irony.

People complaining when they don’t like something! On the internet!!! How dare they. lol

How about YOU not being silent? The problem with people like you is that you liked to be entertained but start whining when something you don’t like. Well, you freedom to post whatever you like, as long as Burbed (the host) finds it okay. But interestingly you don’t do it. And you also have freedom to ignore any posts (and not reading them). But interestingly you don’t do it either.

It’s not that their ‘banter’ isn’t interesting, but it always goes straight off-topic and I just end up wading through it to see anyone else discuss the postings.

Your comments sections are just their little sparring ground, and I want to put them somewhere else. I guess they’d just use other names and come back.

Say, Pralay & RealEstater, how about you both take a 1 week “cease-fire”. No posting until May 1st, what do you think? (I’ll take silence as consent

Yes, I used propertyshark.

remember in 12/06 they were asking $639K. What do you think the knifecatchers would pay for it today?

And I am sure his first loan with variable rate is resetting soon (or already did).

x-svl, what a great idea. Guess this one is too tame for ya, eh?

Pralay this is not a high crime area. The only crime is that someone bought this house for $628K and that a bank gave him 100% financing. That’s a (cough cough) $240K haircut to the widows and orphans in Iceland.

But I say Bah! I won’t buy in the BA until they offer me a house painted like the bus in The Partridge Family.
