List your Squelchers here so constructive dialogue can be improved.     

Prophet - 06 Apr 2003 20:35

Name & Shame. Surely the squelch function is supposed to remove any trace of an individual who's views you no longer wish to hear?

Share your black list with a few other frustrated souls here and perhaps the overall quality of the boards can be improved.




MightyMicro - 07 Apr 2003 00:03 - 2 of 52

Prophet: surely "squelchees" -- i.e., persons you have squelched?

Prophet - 07 Apr 2003 17:50 - 3 of 52

I stand corrected.

little woman - 07 Apr 2003 19:03 - 4 of 52

My list currently consists of: "fugitive", "gravy", "shagnasty", "goodfella" and "ainsoph foot fungus".

It's great - I no longer have to trawl through the uninteresting slagging off this group seem to enjoy.

Limpsfield - 07 Apr 2003 19:32 - 5 of 52

If you are squelching those (bad choice imo) you may want to make the target of their "slagging" a squelchee too.

I don't squelch anyone - the entertainment you could miss out on just isn't worth the risk. The TAD thread is soon to get it's own mini series on UK Living so I hear.

rofl Fugitive. That's brought tears to my eyes.

Haystack - 07 Apr 2003 22:11 - 8 of 52

I have never felt the need the squelch anyone. There is such a thing as will power. It works far better. Squelching and posting abuse against people always seems a bit Mary Whitehouse to me.

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 00:21 - 9 of 52

excellent choices little woman ...... not sure I have ever seen a constructive or interesting post from any of them. May be we should be able to vote peeps off a thread

Northern Soul - 08 Apr 2003 08:46 - 10 of 52

i don't have an axe to grind with anyone (life's too short and all that) but i do believe goodfella to be genuine in his fundamental analysis comments, i suppose it's just human nature to take the michael when the opportunity presents itself:-)...i support mnu and so get it all the time :-)

NS

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 08:54 - 11 of 52

I find goodfella extremely childish and his forecasts on many shares have become a joke. I also note he is apt to mislead peeps by altering official news releases ..... but everyone to their own - I guess

jeffmack - 08 Apr 2003 08:57 - 12 of 52

Dont get involved, you only cause trouble for yourself

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 08:59 - 13 of 52

A credit card deposit would prevent unwanted people from coming here, and would dissuade the sad ones from posting, e.g. those banned from other bulletin boards for nefarious reasons, those with another alias etc.

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 09:05 - 14 of 52

jeffmack

I do as I please and goodfella doesnt frighten me - just saying it as I see it.

Beau62 - 08 Apr 2003 09:11 - 15 of 52

Nas....people using more than one alias should really be stopped from doing so. I'm no techie, but I assume most people post either using their home or work pc (or possibly both). You would think that technology these days would be able to identify the IP address of their respective kit and anyone trying to use the detected pc's with a name not registered to that address would not be able to post. Surely that would limit the number of people screwing the system the way they do. Obviously it would be harder to grab those who have a vista of kit to choose from in an office, particularly market related companies, but in the main the majority would be detected and prevented from ruining boards and misleading others in the way that they clearly do.

I welcome any such future security initiatives because I only post using one password on all sites and have absolutely nothing to hide. Others, I would suggest, would not be as forthcoming as me as hidden agendas and more sinister reasons for posting seems to be the norm these days.

If I wanted to, and I don't, I could quite easily log in under a new name and start spouting nonsense. Sites, such as these, seem to make it easy for people to do this, which is of course, why they do.

I welcome any comment from the MoneyAM team to confirm or refute my comments.

Rant over.

Beau

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 09:21 - 16 of 52

seems to me that the peeps using multiple aliases have mostly been the gang from advfn and they seem to be openly boasting of the situation ...... I was happy to give moneyam my details - maybe they should insist everyone else does .....



guru 1 1/4 - 08 Apr 2003 09:23 - 17 of 52

Beau62
The only person that has admitted to using multiple aliases is one of your co-conspirators on advfn-neo, don't see you attacking him though, for convenience he even listed his aliases.
Guru

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 09:24 - 18 of 52

Here here,ainsoph,
anyone posting here after being banned from advfn, or using a multiple alias is not welcome

IanT(MoneyAM) - 08 Apr 2003 09:26 - 19 of 52

Beau,

With regard to disabling certain IP addresses so that a banned user cannot re register and access the site.

We are currently developing this and hope to have it enabled in the near future.

Ian

guru 1 1/4 - 08 Apr 2003 09:28 - 20 of 52

Ian
That would be very refreshing and would stop people using multiple aliases from the same computer.
Unfortunately it might not stop posters who have access to more than one computer but will certainly limit many posters ability.
Thanks
Guru

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 09:33 - 21 of 52

yes , lets hope that banned fugitives from other bb`s are soon found out.

Beau62 - 08 Apr 2003 09:34 - 22 of 52

Guru, your attack on me is totally unfounded and I shall treat your remarks with the contempt they richly deserve. I conspire with no-one. I enjoy the banter and the soap opera like saga, yes, and merely feel that those taking a hiding bring most of it on themselves anyway, and by golly, I do laugh at many of the comments.

If I felt the need to attack anyone, I would do so in defence of a particular disagreement I may have at any given time.

My comments were based on people using more than one alias, regardless of whether they are pro or anti ainsoph or, for that matter, pro or anti neo. Clearly I can see where you are coming from.

To even further ridicule your comments, only last week I was classified a clone of ainsoph on advfn.

It would be a good idea to actually get your facts right before jumping to ludicrous conclusions and making yourself look a right lemon.

Beau

Beau62 - 08 Apr 2003 09:36 - 23 of 52

Ian

Thank you. I welcome that effort and wish you every success.

Beau

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 09:55 - 24 of 52

Beau62

I think it's always interesting to see the company that people keep and I think it would be fair to say you tend to support the loonies most of the time who admit they use multiple aliases ...... and yet you come on here and say you want to stop multiple aliases.

As for people bringing things on themselves and you laughing at the situation - seems rather odd in light of your other comments ....

Anyway never mind .......

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 10:01 - 25 of 52

here here ainsoph, anyone who uses more than one alias, here or on any other bb is a charlatan , why I know of one person posting here with one alias and blatantly admitting he is another alias on iii, what a loser that guy is,

gravy - 08 Apr 2003 10:25 - 26 of 52

Webmaster (ian) :

You can see the unrest that just one person on here causes and
if you really think one person is responsible, well that's laughable.
Wether or not he will do it on here it has been proven that ainsoph
has uses masses of multiple handles to push shares on other sites.
He was still using 2 names on iii yesterday (rtshed and tt) so just
keep your eye out.

Also webby : Ainsoph got me banned from iii because I posted my view
that Tadpole would issue a profit's warning and this is when the share
price was 18p, the profit warning happened and the price is now 3.5,
I hope you are not going to adopt the same attitude when I make a correct call ??

Gravy

guru 1 1/4 - 08 Apr 2003 10:30 - 27 of 52

Gravy
no website is going to ban you for making a prediction, as usual you are economical with the truth and go into overdrive when hounding someone.
Guru
Beau62
Your posts on other websites have supported posters using mulitiple aliases if you have defended people such as ainsoph and are generally neutral then I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

gravy - 08 Apr 2003 10:33 - 28 of 52

I find it amazing that anybody would want to support ainsoph
when he has been encouraging people to buy Tadpole shares from
prices all the way down from 80p+ and now they are 3.75p, and
he is still pushing it now !!!
What would you lot say to him if they went bust, it could happen.

"I've lost everything but well done ainsoph anyway !!"

LOL !!

Gravy

Beau62 - 08 Apr 2003 10:36 - 29 of 52

Ains, if you use iii, advfn and MoneyAm you will know that I have raised the issue of IP addresses and multiple aliases a number of times before, going way back actually.

One thing has nothing to do with another.

Just because you clash with various posters, that does not mean I have to. I admit that I enjoy the banter and have a damn good laugh at your expense, read bearish and bullish posts with interest and make my own decisions whether they are right or wrong.

I share polite and respectful posts with just about everyone. That does not mean I would follow the lead sheep and jump off the cliff as you seem to suggest.

Beau

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 11:28 - 30 of 52

Beau62 ..... you clearly have an odd sense of humour but guess that's not a criminal offence.

I also laugh at the antics of the bits and pieces and highly amused at the dreamer peeps and his childish attempts to portray himself as a player.

I don't use advfn but occasionally post on iii and rarely see anyone either laughing or slagging me off on there.

Personally I would never put myself forward as someone to follow but note I seem to be the main topic of conversation/discussion regardless of whether I post or not post .... I therefore assume you guys see me as being more significant than most.

I do my laughing on the way to the bank .... which reminds me :-)



ains

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 11:54 - 31 of 52

ainsoph,
I too post on iii, don`t see the name ainsoph there though, are you sure you have the right bb?

Moneylender - 08 Apr 2003 13:55 - 32 of 52

shag

What name do you use on 3i's then.

Dont recall the name Shagnasty there, am I mistaken?

M

inane - 08 Apr 2003 14:00 - 33 of 52

shag...

..ainslop was banned from iii and ADVFN..she uses RTShed on iii, which is obvious as she uses her other aliases to immediately recommend her posts, therefore showing an illusion of popularity....

look for RTShed and for those who recommend and you'll have your clutch of ainslop iii aliases...

Regards

inane

inane - 08 Apr 2003 14:02 - 34 of 52

PS: my squelchers are:

The quicker moneyam click onto ainsoph's antics the better imo.

Moneylender - 08 Apr 2003 14:06 - 35 of 52

you at it again?

Yet another name, why dont you use the Fraudster, it would be more apt

M

inane - 08 Apr 2003 14:10 - 36 of 52

LOL

I might use moneylender...i'd at least add some substance to an otherwise gray and uninspired poster...but then again you're ainsoph so I should have grown to expect the predictable by now...

moneyam - trace the IP addresses and you'll see how deep the ainsoph rot goes...

ainsoph - 08 Apr 2003 14:18 - 37 of 52

I wondered if he left an s out ...... insane but guess inane is also very desciptive

Moneylender - 08 Apr 2003 14:31 - 38 of 52

Moneyam

Please do as Neo suggests, then we can get back to some serious debate.

IanT(MoneyAM) - 08 Apr 2003 14:34 - 39 of 52

Guys,

We are currently working on a system to block IP addresses of people who have previously been banned from the site but are trying to re register.

This will be in place in the near future.

Ian
MoneyAM

inane - 08 Apr 2003 14:37 - 40 of 52

Ian..

What about people with firewalls that allow surfing whilst 'shrouding' the IP address...like me for instance...

And what about the massive ainsoph posting rate...is this good for the quality of your site or are you just interested in numbers, regardless of what is actually written?....

Regards.

just because you have a problem with a certain poster don't let your petty gripes cloud the real issue. this site is for people who have an interest in shares not those who have an interest in stalking an investor.
Guru

IanT(MoneyAM) - 08 Apr 2003 14:49 - 42 of 52

inane,

Obviously what we are trying to do will not be foolproof, but it will give us an effective way to stop a proportion of these people.


Ian

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 15:00 - 43 of 52

moneylender,
No I don`t use shagnasty there, so your point is??

Moneylender - 08 Apr 2003 15:44 - 44 of 52

Shag

My point is:



shagnasty - 08 Apr'03 - 10:01 - 24 of 42


here here ainsoph, anyone who uses more than one alias, here or on any other bb is a charlatan


M

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 16:25 - 45 of 52

Moneylender, have you thought of getting advice about your constant fear of being left out?
You really must try and keep up too, you not only need lessons in investment, but also in being a sleuth, not very good at it are you?
I personally don`t use shagnasty on iii, so what then is your point?
Do I guess correctly that you do agree, that anyone posting on iii with a diiferent alias to here, unless unable to use the one he chooses at either venue, is a charlatan??
Think carefully now, there is no ainsoph on iii.

Moneylender - 08 Apr 2003 16:28 - 46 of 52

Shag

What has Ainsoph got to do with this?

I am asking you.

your quote from above: anyone who uses more than one alias, here or on any other bb is a charlatan


So what name do you use on 3i's?


M

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 16:41 - 47 of 52

Moneylender, you have taken, not very honestly again, my post out of context, I said
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Here here,ainsoph,
anyone posting here after being banned from advfn, or using a multiple alias is not welcome
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
That was my question to ainsoph, ainsoph does come into it, not you.

I think ainsoph is able to take care of himself, I will come round to you after he replies, meanwhile do think on about my question regarding alias
regestration on iii, you little sleuth you.

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 16:50 - 48 of 52

I never knew that, well that`s changed a turnip into a carrot, as they say in
Rutland.

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 18:23 - 49 of 52

hello, the post I replied to has gone, what is going on?
and yet the post calling me a liar remains, very strange.

shagnasty - 08 Apr 2003 21:28 - 50 of 52

moneylender,
no reply from ainsoph then, or is he you?
Can`t comment until the man does, sorry, wouldn`t be cricket you know.
