Hi Blue, Carolyn of course Blue speaks the truth and yep me too, we were embarassed and made to feel like we were posting filth or lies by these people. While at the same time what was filth and lies on other boards was left alone. Our real thoughtcrime was to start posting on another empty subject area when we left the board we used to be on (that's another story but ties in to this too, some people from that board came to make trouble on ours to call negative attention to it). Anyway, I was censured and insulted directly by an Obergruppenwebmeistress and a certain McIdiot for my "Off Topic" post in the finance section....which by the way first talked about the market and then gave a recipe for chile rellenos to celebrate the way it was moving. Unfit for their high standards. Let someone say if it's not the truth, I've got the printouts. So now they'll be in charge of Motley Fool which were always better boards than AOL/PF anyway...always, that is, I guess til now. Anyone ever notice and wonder why such a huge subscriber base ISP like AOL has so few posts in their finance section compared to SI, Motley Fool, etc.? If so, now you know. Yer pal, Joan |
