I find this galling as well as completely unfathomable. A nutcase for a moderator? Next thing you know it will be wild/msfe with their own ET turf to patrol. Sayonara to posting to chit-chat while subjected to the likes of aphexcoil in possession of censorship power. One would have to surmise that this "moderator" has no control over any real, i.e. non-chitchat, forums.
Alphie is no longer considered a nutcase. With the arrival of newer and more bizarre clinical cases... err...I mean ET members, the bar for being considered a nutcase in ET has been raised.
Max401, I closed the thread because it got into a pissing match between you and RogueTrader. If you want to do that sort of thing, then take it to PM's. Chit-Chat doesn't mean Tit for Tat, Max. If you don't want to post in chit-chat, that's your prerogative. I've been moderating Forex for awhile and do so very responsibly. You'll notice I didn't edit or delete any of your posts. As much as I'd like to, I respect your right to speak your mind. However, the topic went from why Bush went to Iraq to "WWF main event -- Max401 vs. RogueTrader" ... Have a great holiday weekend!
You're right, it wasn't nice and it was unwarranted. Consider yourself un-grouped. Edited to: "Yeah, GG and LS could be co-moderators."
Well, a pretty good and evenly written post, Mr. Aphexcoil. Maybe you have matured here on ET, however, you'll have to admit you have made some outlandish posts in the past.
