Yeah, Yeah, that's it, I'm Jealous!!!! Darn it, you caught me!!!! Hahahaha

Hmmmmmmmmm you took that as favOUrable mention???? Uhhhhh Ohhhhh Kaaaay if you say sooooooo !!!!

Paid performers shill for thinly traded securities, filling the boards with what amounts to little more than clever advertising copy.

And who is the "Queen of Copy and Paste" ?

No one here needs to get a life. Theirs is in cyberspace.

Ummmmmmm same answer as above.

Ok, so maybe I missed something and don't see that as favOUrable.... who knows??

Personally, it looks as if they are not only taking a jab at PABN and management, but those favOUrably mentioned (as you say) as well.

I'd kinda take it as insulting if someone put in print like that for all the world to see that I had no life.... but then again, that's just me.

After all, there are many more important things in life such as friends, family, children, laughter..... sunlight for goodness sake. When's the last time you just let the sun's heat caress your body and think how AWESOME life really is??? I wonder how many people have suffered in their lives for them to be shed in a "FavOUrable Light"?

If you think obsessing 24/7 posting on threads is "FavOUrable" well then I think I'll take door #2 Bob.

"...she got a favourable mention.."

Excuse me for butting in, but do you really believe that statement is accurate? Do you really believe that the "typical" reader would perceive it as such? It seems to me that a person not familiar with the "situation" and the message boards would only know that she is mentioned in connection with the following:

"..so-called "Hypesters" and "Bashers" have crawled out from underneath the rubble, back on to the Wall Street message boards,....."

"..vast numbers of anonymous players still view buying and selling stocks as an expensive and risky form of entertainment, like casino gambling or Formula 1 racing."

"Bluff and bluster reign supreme in this fantasy subculture"

"Paid performers shill for thinly traded securities,.."

"Short-sellers and obsessed instigators spend hours each day conducting their own investigations, posting facts and disinformation, all the while flaming their enemies. No one here needs to get a life. Theirs is in cyberspace.
"

I could go on, but you get the idea I'm sure. So let's look at the actual mention (highlights are mine):

Log on and experience the absurdity firsthand by punching the letters P-A-B-N into your search window. Welcome to the financial soap opera that is PanAmerican BanCorp, ranked by Raging Bull as one of the nation's most bookmarked financial message boards. Each day, BigBertha, PatP, termin8r, colleenb and dozens of other regulars joust with each other..."

In other words, it seems to me (IMHO) it would be difficult for that typical reader to perceive that Ms B or anyone else received a "favourable" mention.

I know that was my impression when I first read it....so much so that I reread it, but refrained from mentioning it. That is until you brought it up.

BTW, do you have a new "story" assignment yet?
