Michael, I have no idea as to your intent and purpose at this time (maybe remorse), but like I mentioned in post #11, Ms Lo banned me for no apparent reason other than I was not paying...either homage or donations. I posted nothing disruptive. I guess that as I said earlier, Ms Lo's past precedes her.
I have no association with jenna, Gems, or Pristine and had only recently posted to her thread after lurking and profiting for many years.
The amusing thing is that the folks on the real "Ask Us..." thread were just going about our business, day in, day out and had nothing to do with the initiation of any of the ensuing debate.
"amusing, yes, but not the read I got from the disruptive posts by; Teresa, Lola, Dave(somebody), and others.
"going about our business," yes on Teresa's thread, but it was not that way on "Intraday Updates", or previous MarketGem related threads.
Fortunately the web is a self-documenting medium. Anyone that decides to take the time and objectively read the posts and comments put forth by anyone associated with Intelligent Speculator...
"self-documenting medium", could not agree more.
If you get time you should review
Subject 50942, Subject 14123, Subject 37181 that way you will have a grasp on the subject at hand.
Jenna has left a paper trail that any normal person might be woefully ashamed of
Quite true, but so have many others, we already know that don't we, so I will not bring it up again, until you do your research and get back with me on that subject.
I can relate with you for defending employee's/co-workers gone awry, I have had to do the same, but it will never right, wrong doing.
As a long time SI member, having experienced the past and present, I can say that it is not as good as it used to be, as far as the content of posts and posters. There are still good posters here, don't get me wrong, just not like it used to be. Why, you might ask? Many have moved on to the greener pastures of commercial sites, you and Ms Lo included. Teresa's links and now your's, are just as blatantly commercial as any other commercially oriented poster here.
I agree with your coming forward as you stated,
As the controversy built its own head of steam, Jenna lashed out everywhere, even to me, and I've never posted to her thread or made an untoward comment of any kind. I suggested she take a step back and calm down.
And no doubt you were there with your one post ("and I've never posted to her thread") as are here now, obviously running damage control for Ms Lo., you are no doubt a leader that Ms Lo should pay closer attention to.
My take on all this is from what I witnessed and experienced personally from Ms Lo and her followers, maybe you got yours at the supper table.
I see no cause to discuss this point further with you, I was only addressing the wrongful way I was not allowed into Ms Lo's and now I see your's, "Ask Us..." thread for absolutely no substantiated reason what so ever. Which neither you, nor your counterpart have been willing to address, thus far.
Once one views the link you provided to me ( intelligentspeculator.com )in your post they will see the truth and what the intent and purpose all this is about...business and now damage control.
For those that don't get it, it was one business running off a competitor, nothing more, nothing less. Simple rule of unethical business practice is to associate yourself with a successful business so you, the lesser, will appear to be as successful as the mentor. Then swiftly get rid of them so the unknowing comes to the lesser, the "winner".
I have no doubt been picking winners much longer than you, so in this instance, and with all due respect, I will have to stick with what my take on this matter is.
Mike, I sincerely wish you luck in you associations you have chosen, you seem like an intelligent person, hopefully you will be successful in your life...no doubt changes will aid you in your success.
Will I see you at the Masters next month?
What I seen through the "discovery" process, probably not, get out there and make money.
Best of luck to you, the best advice I can offer you is, change.
