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?

Dear Mike/Bullshare,

I have been reading the various posts by you and other posters on the “Bring back Goldfinger and Doodlebug” thread on Moneyam and since you have let Goldfinger respond on that thread perhaps you will also give me the courtesy of a right to reply and post this email.

Since you made the decision to ban Goldfinger and me from posting on Moneyam you know that I have made no attempt to contact you, or any other member of staff at Moneyam. I agree with you that no one poster or contributor is bigger than the sum of all the different parts and if the management decide that the team effort is being eroded by a disruptive individual or individuals then the management have the right to act.

You say that you had a yellow card/red card system in place, perhaps you did but I can’t remember getting a yellow card, whereas I know that Goldfinger was on a least one yellow card! If we are going to use football parlance, then I feel like a member of a football team who has been fouled constantly by one member of the opposition for about 85 minutes - without any support from the referee - then decided enough was enough and was promptly sent off for retaliation!

Since I started posting on the Moneyam bulletin board a few years ago I have, on occasions, contacted Ian and asked him to remove posts by Goldfinger on your forum which referred to me as “scum”, “pleb”,” thug” – apart from some other derogatory comments which I decided to let stand without complaint. When you intervened on one thread last year and asked everyone to calm down, Chris Carson and I both agreed to let matters rest, but Goldfinger continued his goading and abuse. I was also subjected to a constant stream of abusive posts by Goldfinger last year where he spammed various threads accusing me of being a poster on ADVFN referred to as “Stigologist” and who I believed at the time was the subject of a court case. Again I was forced to ask Ian to have these posts removed and they were then only removed in part.

At the start of 2015 I was prepared to let bygones be bygones, but Goldfinger started making derogatory comments on ADVFN and then on Moneyam referring to me as a “bankrupt” and saying I had lost all my money on FLYB. It is very easy for other posters to pass comments saying that I should just have ignored it, but it’s not so easy to ignore when you are the poster being subjected to unfounded and unwarranted abuse on a daily basis.

There is no doubt that Goldfinger did contribute a great deal to the various threads on Moneyam, particularly the chart thread, but I personally found his constant abuse of myself and Chris Carson unacceptable. Surely one poster has a right to disagree with another poster on a public forum without being subjected to various forms of foul-mouthed abuse, including speculation about their sexual preferences? If you read the posts on the FOXT thread you will understand what I am referring to, and that is just one example.

I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to air my views on your public forum and if you see fit to edit any part of what I have said then that is your prerogative. I apologise for all the aggravation and extra work this issue has undoubtedly caused you and your staff at Moneyam.

Kind regards,

if DB is banned, how come he is allowed to post through the backdoor?

cynic -Wake up, top of Max's post states clearly copied and pasted and from ADVFN.

i am aware of that, but my comment stands

OK, pg 4 post 69 (Goldfingers reply) was posted by Shortie..(not GF)

MaxK 131 (DB4's reply) was posted by him not DB.

What part of that don't you understand? With respect. For Gods sake cynic stop acting like Miss Marple and let this matter rest.

moi?
et toi?

Chris

I don't think he was acting like Miss Maple , Miss Maple would have understood stright away even at her advanced age

Any mention of goldfinger and up pop's cynic

cynic.

I don't know DB4 or gf other than as handles on a free bb.


There is nothing sinister going on, I would just like to see both reinstated.

Thanks for that Max. If I had posted DB's reply no doubt I would have been accused of being biased. :0)

No problimos Chris.

One point I would add is having looked through the FOXT thread there was sadly at no point any intervention by moneyam . I'm not here to take sides with db4 or goldfinger or indeed moneyam. BUT the problems experienced in my view sadly could of been nipped in the bud a lot earlier and just may of been a different end result. A warning on the likes of one more post in the manner of post ------ then moneyam will have no option but to ban you. End of then, the poster takes his/her choice . Also there will not be the are buts after the event, SIMPLES.

Thanks db4.

Nice to have read the reply, but sadly not going to change the result. So perhaps time moneyam shut down this thread.

Maybe it was thought that they were given enough rope to hang themselves if indeed they have, Who knows?

Why close this thread as opposed to any others?

Cause its not achieving anything now Stan. imhoo , :-))
