Jim, >It's a level playing field. Made no sense to have Paul insulting everything and everybody on the mod thread when you couldn't respond in kind.
Rhetorical question: so they couldn't respond in kind because they were afraid of suspension themselves? That further emphasizes why a moderated thread is castrated. You always get one or two people that are rather "colorful". But, if they contribute to the thread technology wise, high priority in the case of these threads, or in company earnings crystal ball gazing (Paul prediction of AMD losing 3X what all analysts had them losing; reporting of Sanders and Son selling bookoo stock just before the earnings miss bomb); Paul does both of these better than anybody, maybe you find a way to put up with it? One of the great dilemmas of such a crucial modern day institution: the Internet message board and how to handle an "out of order execution" participant.
In any case, it's all swung over here. We even have some of the most critical of the way things were going on the other thread posting more here than there. Thing is, if they shut Paul out over there and don't look here, they may, make that will, miss a lot of important information/opinion.
Speaking of castrated, that other thread is more so now, IMO.
