I realize you weren't being serious.
It's a consistency issue. A comment from one of your detractors: "I say Frank Q needs his butt beat down.", violates the CoC. It gets deleted even if it was made in anger or jest. The same applies to everyone.

Thanks wxyz, Frank. Tough week, board-wise. I suspect much of the drama we've seen lately is related to balance. People need reinforcement of their views as well as debate. When Como and neoh left, I think Mid felt pressured to pick up the slack. When he was banned, it was left to Decoy, VL, and myself. That wore some of us down the rest of the way, it would seem. Attacks on you gentlemen were/are inappropriate, but that kind of hostility breeds in lopsided environment. I think we should respect the fact that Decoy and VL recognized the hostility and chose to leave of their own volition (if, in fact, Decoy has left--I still haven't heard from him). Maybe sunrnr, his bony-arse dragon and I can hold up "team reality" for now.

Virgil do not feel like you are alone. There are many here that respect you and your opinion. I for one. I have tried to start discussions on some of the issues rather than engage in the loud name calling that goes on here. Decoy has offered a broad overview of what he sees as problems. The only market related post I have found of value was from The Virginian. The day trader thread is probably of value to day traders. Most of the rest is just noise.

Itstippy, I still have the post in my saved file. Just send the bank account info to me, along with all of your cash, and I'll see that it gets deposited in my the proper accounts.

I am a long term stock, real estate and collectibles investor, however I am 70 years old so my long term is probably shorter than your long term. Have a good day and a better tomorrow.

Looks to me that both the Decoy409 and decoy409 accounts are still active. There was a decoy409 post a few hours ago on his sticky thread.
I think that Virgil may have started the wake before the preliminaries were completed.

And a good life it is too. Sure a lot of these dialogs degrade or digress into paranoid rants. Sure there are irrational histrionic tantrums when the tipping point is reached. Sure it is fun to read and even ridicule the downward spiraling insanity that manifests here often and... I forgot the point I was trying to make here. Oh yes fun. That is the point. It is fun to read. Fun to post. Fun to recall. Often it brings a smile to my face to recall some of the insanity and I am grateful for it. Thanks mods, members and all. {exalt} x 4 for MOON and 4 for rovo & virgil soon.

Heck Virg, I work 4 jobs, #1 Go to the Bank and make a deposit, #2 Play golf, #3 Fix supper, #4 Make sure the Wife is Happy. It's all I can do in a Day and I wonder how in the Hell I can get by.

Give it a few more months, Ty, you'll find that a) the BLS considers you a part of the labour force, and b) your little admission lets them add +4 to the June NFP number.

Whoops! Duffminster Times is where they are moving to. For those unaware,Duff broke the NEWS as to the manipulation of Gold & Silver by JPM and how the players all nestled together in SHAM WoW Fantasy Island. As this NEWS became to be TRUTHFUL,Duffs Thread as to this clown act was like magic and MSN MT barred it by making it disapear. After a short but lengthy dispute went on,the post reappeared! Old & Gray was the leader of solid perspective and discussion,however he was shown the door by others deciding it was easier to let him know this by hacking his computer and in turn making it worrisome for him to continue posting as he needed no more than to express and share what he knew. But others simply did not like TRUTH being discussed and helped him to leave. Have a look around at Duffs. You will find a good lock as to why some are not allowed over there.

Well now that most of the "clowns" are gone, we can all move on.
