Mind you - that Novo, after a glass or two of vino collapso, he can be pretty rough on the newbies. :p

In vino veritas, ann.

With I could remember her posting name. I'd like to go back and read some of her posts again.

Robin(The Gadget Family)?

Tony the Pilot was a bit of a kn*b jockey.

UltraRunner was going through a rough patch and took it out here resulting in a ban.

Bazzz was nothing special.

No, not them - they def didn't get PR in 3 to 4 months. They took years to finally get where they wanted - I've rarely seen such patience!

Did they get a positive result in the end?

I felt bad a few people who applied similar time as I did really were given a run around by CIC before having their money refunded and process cancelled.

By the way it is my 8 year anniversary in a couple of weeks.

You are all welcome!

Fur sure, UR had some, um, interesting family dynamics to work through, and some of what he posted probably reflected that. But not all, by any means: he was quite seriously rude and obnoxious on many occasions that had nothing to do with his personal situation. And he was an inveterate (and unapologetic) plagiarist, which really didn't help his cause.

Agreed on Tony the Pilot, though: knob jockey of Grand Cru quality.

Yes, the Gadgets are on Vancouver Island now, aren't they? Took them over six years from beginning to end of the process.

No, he was scary. Very manipulative and creepy.
