This thread is dedicated to ALL the market talk regulars. You all know who you are.
As of right now, I am VERY close to not only shutting down Market Talk in it's entirety, but banning everyone involved in the repeated personal attacks. All of you pick at the "other side", and I am sick of it . Either all of you grow the eff up and stop slinging barbs at each other, or you and the board are gone. I don't want to hear some stupid bullshit about who starts it either. You ALL start it.
You don't think I'll do it? WATCH ME.

Move the DAY TRADER thread to another spot and shut it down Moon.
I think everyone would be a lot happier. No traffic on here anymore anyway.

Moon, I like seeing what people have to say here. Don't shut it down, I'll be a lot happier. I wish people would not think for me.

Totally bogus and empty threat, there is no way moonbeam would shut down part of the site.

If you think that she is going to fall for this pathetic attempt at reverse psychology, I think you're sorely mistaken and may even end up paying a price you didn't expect for trying it. Apology to Virgil (mod of MT) for straying from my self-imposed exile in Puppies & Dividends, but the obviousness (new word?) of the quoted post really annoyed me. |

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

Your first post at the top of the board with its foul language is a giant cankersore on this forum, so I reported it. You certainly could have made a firm point without being so offensive. And I merely said that I didn't think you would shut down a part of the site. You don't have to get all huffy. |

If you check the CoC you will note that profanity is allowed. Piss me off and I use it.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

You accused the owner of this board of a "totally bogus and empty threat" and stated what that board owner would not do. Since you don't have a clue what someone will, or will not do, you stepped way out of line on that one. You were offensive, which rather negates your right to accuse anyone else of being offensive, I'd say. |

What could we have possibly done to bother anyone on these boards? We keep to ourselves and post only in our thread. Many people have benefited from our posts and we are a very nice group of people that have fun chatting every day. I find it discouraging that someone would have something negative to say about us. |

For your information,
Moon has produced a new board here (Investing Perspectives )and was the driving power behind the associated board know as Super Fed-Watch ( dedicated interest in money and the market). We owe her a lot for her effort.
Everyone should find most of this problem solved. If you want to join Super Fed-Watch PM Moon, Ahamberg or me.
Just a thought,

Wow a lot of threats and ill will. What ever has happened to market talk this year? Even though I have been quite absent of late, I would miss it.

Not that my opinion counts much, but I'm one of those that says, if you don't like a particular forum, change the channel. No one is forcing you to be in this one. As an Admin at a few other forums, I can also see moonbeams side. Crap does get old. Running forums is a lot of work, much of it behind the scenes that no one really sees. It's easily a full time job. Please take that into consideration before giving the admins a hard time.
