Stan, Bravo. As you know I used to be a member of A@P, and he is the King of the pump and dumpers. He is so obvious in the pandering of his site and advice that he even uses serious threads (such as all, yes all of the JFK, JR., Kosovo Crisis and Mark Barton threads). He doesn't even bother being original, just copies and pastes the same message, trying to eek out some credibility in refering to havng known intimately the person, situation whatever.
IMHO, if he needs to prove he's expert so much, he just plain isn't. I know I played his pure plays, and never, ever made any money. Credit to another famous former SI-er, I have made money on Tokyo Joe. Credit where credit is due. I for one don't blame SI, and you put it so well when you said
"SI will live on and prosper. It's not dependent on a handful of highly visible posters and gurus, whether they be self proclaimed or anointed by supporters.
It's dependent on the still large and thriving group of "little guys" that come together, start threads, share information freely with mutual respect and the desire to succeed."
Bravo Stan. You are 100 times the Guru he'll ever be. And in contrast, you really know what you're doing. I wonder how many dart boards A@P's replaced.(gg) |
