What's a forum without people posting, some friendly banter and opposing views. By MAMs decision to remove the above posters we now have less views and these forums have lost their humour and rich content. I say bring back GF and DB immediately.

Please post your support if you agree?

a bit harsh Shortie, though i very much hope the management will listen

cynic - stop being an ald woman and shut up for five seconds, give posters a chance to vote.

Harry,

Simply.

I had a skirmish or two over my observations on some threads.

One thread I initiated on "Palestine and Israel" and another on "McCanns", I thought some posters were being deliberately offensive and after a while found it easier to use the squelch button rather being tempted to respond at the level they considered appropriate.

Can't say I missed their posts.

I think if posters don't gets the response which rewards them then they may change.

If the remarks are libellous and thought to serious enough to warrant action, then it is up to the individual.

But an old lawyer's advice is that "it is better to ignore the insults and avoid the courts when possible".

We are all entitled to our own opinions and craziness and to "voice them".

If that's really the case Harry then I'll spend my time posting my research elsewhere with other like minded individuals.

Its time consuming enough with all the generic crap posted on these forums, filtering out the good stuff, without losing those people that contribute worthwhile ideas in the first place.

Two posters I have always got on very well with. I do not post on other Boards, so not my problem what goes on, on them. Very far from pleasant what has been said on some of the threads on moneyam . I would hope DB and GF read the Foxtons (FOXT) thread and hope they would agree some pretty distasteful/disgusting words have been said and pictures placed on the thread, do serious investors want to read these abusive arguments and should they have too ? Yes I would like to see them posting the good and sensible posts we are used to on here. Do not know the way forward ?

"...with all the generic crap posted on these forums." That's the difference between Traders and Investors, surely? Some people want a 15 min price chart, some want a 1 year chart. Maybe the two don't mix on the same Forum then?

Maybe a cool down period is required of say 48hrs in these cases then.

It would seam more appropriate to me.

Some people seem to be willing to put up with abuse on here so that they can copy trade goldie, thats ok but come out and say it , don't hide behind your willingness to have him back is not to make money

Democracy rules, ok! Ok? Um.............,well maybe! :o)

you're not allowed to vote twice ..... electoral fraud!

As Shortie says it seems to be one rule for some and not others, so suggest from now on that all people who post abusive posts against other posters get "a warning" and are then banned for a month if they transgress.

Once back if they transgress again it's a two month ban and so on... that will sort them out.

All in favour say yes.

Shortie

RE -There will be no further charts or technical analysis posted from me until this is concluded to the benefit of MAM members.

What is good for you maybe NOT good for others, but my experience says "do not understimate your opponent", so no threats

10 days for starters ..... but "abuse" within reason is ok and if it dies quickly - ie no more than handbagging

Trust Alf to find something wrong with it -):

So who's broadly in favour of my suggestion?

My time reading of threads from " Goldfinger " is not good as he goes over the TOP and if necesary will hunt you down with "LIES" to get other believe his point ( I have prove )

Worse yet at "ADVFN" where his antics are really out of order and going on for years

So the conclution is not only one off, in this case is very difficut to change your long term behaviour


"Doodlebug " I do not have so much to go by, though I think is more a "piss taker" than anything else mainly directed to the other GF were as far as I see comes from arguments mainly at other places

thats 4 neys 3 ayes, and 2 don't knows and 1 mediator (stan)

an interesting observation indeed from mentor!

How do you work that out BB, only 3 including yourself have commented since my post.

AYE AYE AYE

YES YES YES YES


That make 10/4 + Stan's
