Hey Turkey Boy (aka brooksdara): You made a lot of threats in your email to me after I objected to your rather brusque reply to my request for information. I tried to contact the policeman whom you named in your threatening email to me. Nobody knows who he is. I tried to reach the telephone number that appears on the Village Idiot webpage. Not a working number. I called two schools in the area where this outfit supposedly operates. Nobody knows anything about your school. I called a Chinese colleague who works for Toshiba and asked her to gather some information on your school. Guess what? No info.

I called SAFEA. Ditto.

You seem not to understand how the world works. Intelligent people don't send out information to unknown organizations. (Sorry, but a multipage website does not constitute an organization). Furthermore, people don't send out personal information to people who insult them.

And despite all your threats about the local police tracing my ip address, no one has contacted me. I left contact information to everyone to whom I spoke in Shandong province, but it has been two weeks now, but nobody has contacted me.

Your website at http://ilvtaian.x10.mx/ indicates that your li'l village has been in existence for less than a year.My guess is that you're involved in the business end of an English mill franchise, but you have no idea how to market it. That isn't good. Do you know what happens when you alienate people with your sh*tty attitude? In the world of TEFL, one is blacklisted. People complain about you and spread the word that you're a shady outfit.

I know nothing about your school, but I've learned more than enough about you to NOT want to have anything to do with your school.

You're taking the opportunity to represent yourself as a knowledgeable person, yet I first became aware of you on Dave's ESL Frappe when you asked how to hire summer help. You REALLY sound like an expert. You dispense bad/incomplete/fabricated information in an attempt to elevate your status. Guess what, son? In the working world, one gains respect from peers not by putting people down but by helping people up and out.

You have done neither.

Then you proceeded to insult people on the same forum.

Not Good, Kimosabe.

Start doing searches on your li'l village. I'm sure somebody will become fed up with your BS and put your school's name on a blacklist.

Have you thought about attending charm school? It might help.
