Just to add to spyder's comment. I have two crews of people dealing with claim substantiation and disclaimers. If you have any doubts about them doing thier jobs get with it and volunteer for either group. You have my permission, of course. The person who are doubters and the others who have genuine questions do need to be protected as we all know. Protecting them has been a thing that has been in effect for eons. The people in charge of this two things have a standard practice of recruiting helpers. Their recruiting standards are legion. Furthermore, they have rapid response recruiters all over the place. If you keep the same name for a while you will find that you can rise in their ranks quite rapidly. they originated the post count as a gating mechanism for graduating from one level to another. You may just be under the radar so far.
Now, this post makes sense. I can certainly understand how both Jack and his detractors can spiral a thread way off topic and out of control. However, since the responsibility for such an action falls on both parties involved (Jack for posting off topic and detractors for responding), clicking the complain button also provides the solution. 'Off-topic posts' irrespective of who creates them, often adversely effects a discussion. Hold everyone to the same standard, and I doubt you'll hear any complaints from this side of the discussion. - Spydertrader
225 is going to pm you each time I post in a thread that will be of interest to you to avoid. he will do it just after he lofts his first criticism of me into the punchbowl.
Still can't bring yourself to add me to your ignore list? Something compels you to respond? Must be those terrorists. - Spydertrader <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1411326>
I have no problem with Jack Hershey and his gang. I usually read first couple of lines of his post and decide whether it's worth my time. If I feel that he's just babbling along, then I just ignore. I rarely find anything useful to read in his posts, but sometimes I do pick up some good stuff. People should just put him on ignore instead of creating a new thread about how Jack Hershey this or Jack Hershey that.... This is an open forum after all....
banning someone from free speech? that's so un-American. put him on "Ignore". you don't need the moderator's permission to use the ignore button.
He's still looking. He's sqinting too. ursa has a good point about the serious contribuants (potential is what he means), though. They are are getting scared away.
gotcha..... spyder did you see this one coming??? I'm doing the rolling thing... it was too easy. And this guy is a serious contribuant.
