Ziv is subtle enough in his posts to avoid prosecution or law suits. He does his best to maintain a plausible veil of innocence all the while slightly tipping his cards to let you know his hidden meanings. Think of it as subliminal advertising Dave, you sense what he is saying (and threatening) without his putting anything to print specifically outlining his plans or actions.
Ziv has no intention of doing anything good. He lies even when the truth would serve him just as well. Even if he could make just as much money honestly he would CHOOSE the path where he hurts and dominates others or puts one over on the establishment, it feeds his delusion of superiority and his criminal mentality. I have seen his kind in the offline world all too often, I guess it was inevitable that a few of these snakes would infest the online world too.
Remember Eve and the Serpant every time you communicate with him. You may be seeking a resolution he is seeking to destroy you. He will hiss the things he thinks you want to hear. Thats as good as it will get with him. I hiss back when he flickers his tongue in my direction and that seems to work, he doesnt find me too interesting and he suspects he has met another serpant and this unsettles him. Truth be known his instincts are correct, my only goal when speaking with him is to seek HIS weaknesses and to figure out a way to drive him out of the garden.
