I was not banned for violating a TOU, I was banned because people who obsess over luxury watches are very touchy about what drives their obsession.

I'm posting it here so others can appreciate how berserkly defensive you got when asked about your motivation.

It's actually you who is the doozy.

You obviously don't want to talk about it, do you?

Do you?

As I mentioned, my interest in horology includes an examination of the psychology of those who obsess over luxury watches.

Your response is very on brand for the typical luxury watch devotee.

Your personal attacks unwittingly reveal you have many of the classic psychological signs of the inferiority complex that luxury watch lovers are known for.

Your attempts to demean me highlight your unmet need to be seen as a successful, sophisticated watch aficionado.

Your unwarranted attacks on me are proof of your psychological insecurity and emotional neediness and perfectly illustrate the stereotypical psychological profile attributed to people who obsess over luxury watches.

I hope you find my observations helpful in your relentless pursuit of personal excellence.

I'd be interested in any further thoughts you'd like to contribute regarding the psychology of luxury watches.

According to you, I'm not a veteran, I'm not a pilot, I'm not an A&P mechanic, I don't hold an FAA CTO certificate and I'm not someone with an IQ over 140.

I am, in fact, all of the above.

You want to know more?

I'll tell you this at the risk of seeing your head explode:

I owned and operated a commercial fishing business in Alaska for many years.

I'll let you work through this new piece of information for a while before I tell you any more.
