"I can almost make all the posts by my self"

This is an actual quote from his site. I noticed he posts on his board using about 5 different IP addresses. They have all been added to the banned ones here.

Almost?

I'd say entirely.  If you disregard "his" posts and those of his few loyal minions, there is very little additional traffic.  I still tune in every once and a while, just for laughs.  

Love how he posts something, then posts multiple responses to his own posts.  

I still think that some day he's going to accidentally ban himself from his own forum.

Bill, he spends time on the road deligering his product. Many of the "other" IP number are from when he's on the road, out of town. Customers homes, truck stops, and where he can get a connection.

(opps sorry about that Doc, I meant to hit reply and I hit modify. All above are Doc's words)

I thought of that. All the ones I've banned are in the colorado area. He uses at least two broadband providers and a Denver dial up.  The dialups aren't worth banning for reasons probably obvious to you.  I could block thier entire range, but that might get spaman at the same time!

My brother has been reading his board....Yesterday he read some of it to me...I never knew he was so far out there he went on and on about how great business was and how....that he was up until 2:30 am placing orders with the factory and how he is so famous in fact the most famous person in this industry ...which I wondered who in there right mind ever thought about fame and selling spas ....but I must say it was entertaining and of course he mentioned some customer who surprise happen to be engineers ....

Thank God my father in law wasn't into spas when he was alive, or he might have discovered Jim and become the Midwest rep.  We are just now finishing dealing with the estate and taking dumpster after dumpster full of stuff that the man "Tim Taylor'd" into something else. I could envision the two of them hitting it off.  What a predicament that would have put me in.

It has been pretty slow...

Wonder what he's doing in Southern Cal that would take up so much of his time that he can't get online and post?

If you can talk him into going to lunch with you, I might just drop everything and drive up to join you. And buy.

Jim - if you're reading this - I would actually enjoy meeting you. No kidding, no offense, really. I'm in our Caldera store from 10 till 5 six days a week, stop by sometime when you are in Southern Cal next time.
