  1. I think it could be either way.

    I didn't find anything in the announcements, but barron posted this in chit chat...

    Due to the negative feedback about the new version of ET that appeared last week, and unexpected software problems from third party vendors that was completely out of my control, I had no choice but to roll back to the old ET for the time being. I discovered that the importing software I acquired to transfer data from the old message board to the new one had a critical bug, which caused a ton of threads and posts to vanish on the new site.

    And honestly, once I did the upgrade, I was shocked at how many members expressed how they loved the old ET just like it was.

    Yes, I want to upgrade the site eventually, but I want to do it in a way that's a much softer rollout next time, with better explanation in advance of the changes and new features to come, so it's not so much of a shock factor.

    The biggest downside to this debacle means that last week's posts went into a black hole. There's no point in me even trying to stitch that content back into this format because it would just cause way more downtime and aggravation for all of us. The bright side of course is that one week is nothing compared to the 1 million+ thread and posts I discovered that were missing on the site upgrade (those are all in tact on this site now).

    This has been the toughest month of my life... period. I kid you not when I say that I have slept about one night for every three days this past month trying to get this migration done. Considering the outcome, I regret having to put you guys (and my family) through this. ET is my life and I appreciate every one of you who takes the time to participate here. Always have. I tried so hard to move us forward, by my effort didn't work out like I hoped, so I fell short, and for that I'm truly sorry.

  3. Thanks for pointing this out. This russian man or lady has been harassing posters on this board for quite a long while. Sometimes I get posts within seconds of posting something from the Russian personage and the posts are generally quite negative. what this person's purpose or function is on this board seems to be only to cause problems. I am surprised they have not been banned for adding no value and continually harassing the productive members. surf

    I think you mean restart his thread. The original is gone. And given the fact that he has not quit this website like he promised to do if his thread could not be recovered, it seems a restart is likely.

    Yes, I am trying to recover the pages from it now. It might take time. I have sent the email to baron; we shall see what I can salvage.

  8. When I've tried and talk TA setups, with specific entry/exit and stop/reverse prices, you just bitch and moan. You find no value in things you don't agree with. That's not really my problem now is it?

    Bingo. Surf has an awful habit of ignoring or ridiculing reasonable questions that he doesn't want to deal with. It's his problem, not the problem of his critics.

    :D

    funniest shit EVER.


    Now that surfer won't be talking about 'price drivers', he's going to spend more of his time on fresh new anti-TA threads.

    classic example of someone using "exclusivity", usually by saying "No this is a private thing now, PLEASE DON'T DISCUSS WITH ME ANYMORE", to lure idiots in.

    Hrmm.. sounds familiar, where have I seen this kind of behavior before... Oh thats right
