Here it is... http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=170724&highlight=goldman I never bothered reading that one before, but you're right, it's friggen hilarious!
Obama's Business Blind Spot In a real departure from history, the current cabinet has almost no private- sector experience. http://www.forbes.com/2009/11/24/michael-cembalest-obama-business-beltway-cabinet.html
How would an ET member know that? Oh yes, now we have a moderator who has a particular political bent who is revealing private information... Isn't life grand when personal politics rears its ugly head...
It was 377OHMS who posted that he was from Calgary. I revealed nothing about the OP or anyone else to 377OHMS. Nothing at all. I know you're desperate to find something on me, but your desperation will have to hold on just a bit more. So whine elsewhere. If I had to guess, and maybe 377OHMS can tell us why he said Calgary, that - if someone was to be in the energy industry in Canada - it would be in Calgary.
I only asked because if there is someone (else) posting here, from Calgary, who is in the energy industry, that is an interesting coincidence.
You have revealed personal information, in a thread based on your review of IP addresses, something that is private on this site... There was a snafu (supposedly) once and the IP's were listed for each poster... So the information is available, could be shown to everyone...but it is kept private. Since we know you look at IP addresses to see where they are, and if someone claimed so and so was in some place, and since you are only about the truth (LOL!!!) you could have said, "No, he is not in Calgary, or at least his IP address isn't." So if someone knows, and then knows of a false claim and says nothing.... Well, the logic plays itself out.
...and you know because you are looking at the IP address and determining where people are...then using that information to moderate? Too funny...
Do you actually believe the crap you spew? Do you act like this in real life with people? I'm betting there's no way, as there would be absolutely zero people that would want to be in the same zip code with you. I revealed no personal information on anyone - unless they first said so themselves (to confirm). I look at IP addresses all the time. Just two minutes ago, I confirmed that the same spammer (from the Philippines, who has been spamming here day after day) was again logging on to spam the stocks forum. Once confirmed, I was able to act on his posts. Looking at IPs and their locations is part of my job, and there is no stipulation on when I am allowed to look at them. Don't like it? Don't Log On. In your case, I think 99% of the site would cheer.
