    It would be nice to see some feature that would curtail this practice of cutting and pasting entire articles.

    I disagree with this suggestion. Many articles are inaccessible to other members due to paywalls, and as a courtesy to others, members will post said article. People who are not afraid of reading will appreciate it. Those who hate reading can just scroll through said articles.

    After all, who's trading without information?

    So, you are asking Baron to condone theft/unauthorized redistribution?
     

  5. Why not? Your ES thread is outright fraud.

    I dunno, are you asking Baron to condone censorship of fact based articles to spare people's feelings?

    Would suggest that postings be limited to a certain number of words----maybe 150 or 200. I realize folks will just start taking screenshots of articles to get around it, but there must be someway to make the postings more concise so you don't have to scroll for 10 seconds to get to the next posting.

    I don't have a problem with long posts. But rather than enacting some sort of ban; putting them between quote tags is a better option. For example:

    It is user unfriendly when you can't get from posting to posting quickly.

    Agreed.I don't want to click to another site full of ads,videos,pop ups etc when I can read the content here and not have to deal with all that.
