Well, True Scouse, you say:

"But the *real* reasons for my lack of posting here are that...

- Sorry to say, but IMHO there's been a lot of fluff on this board recently. Lots of posts about stuff that's got absolutely nothing to do with the PM markets..."

I would assume you mean the friendly banter between loantech and all his friends---kidding, I know you are referring to post by guys like myself and a few others.

In as much as that comment is a self indulgent sideswipe of guys like myself, I will respond---whether you like it or not.

This is about the best thread out there for mining stock knowledge. But one does not hold a thread together with nothing but 100% posts about mining stocks. That will only work for a thread full of incurious robots and sociopaths-lol. Sort of like our present administration-lol.

The "fluff" as you call it is the social glue that holds a thread together; and there is more than enough meat posts to survive the potato's posts.

So, this "fluff" takes two main forms: "greetings and social interactions between friends" and "knowledge".

If all one can talk about is PM's my guess is that that particular person does not understand the importance of social glue and probably has little respect for general knowledge, if they discard "konwledge posts", so easily.

It sounds to me like you think everyone on this thread should post according to your desires. Sorry man, you should have laid out your criteria for posts earlier, so I and others would not upset you.

Maybe if you ask loantech he will allow you to make a list of exactly what you want everyone to post, so you will do us the great honor of posting here more often, so we can be the recipients of your great knowledge about PM's!

Where do you get off complaining about posts on a thread where you only visit once in awhile. Pretty damn presumptuous of you if you ask me.
