LG, Septic tank regulars. Yea, me, heinz, ike, George, Earlie; yea, septic tank. I think Luc is a lunatic, but he is decent enough to make public who has been moderated and has even suggested that moderation require a vote. I asked long ago that you make your list public and you referred to me as a disruptive influence. Still read MDD. Cheers. --Allan

<<<<<All I can say is...what a bunch of hypocrites. lg you --------. many people have people bookmarked that post occasionally on your thread. so, they may respond to them right there, its convenient and on topic. no point saying to poster x, you posted such and such on the mdd thread but i'll reply to you on ANOTHER thread. thats just nuts. i posted very infrequently on your thread, and i do not believe you had a reason for booting me, and i believe you excluded a few of 'the guys' who never even posted on your thread, simply because they play for the other team. the people that are banned on the clown thread were posting incessantly. you can check that for yourself. its not necessary to tell people hourly to buy index funds, although it might be prudent to tell them once. and this evening i pm'ed luc about reinstating one of the four fellers banned. as i said, its all documented on the clown thread if you'd bother to look. let's see how fast i get suspended for calling you an --------(twice!)

LG, you banned me from the MDD thread and I've never posted to you in my life. The only reason, as far as I can see, is that I post on the Clown thread. The first time I tried to post there, to Heinz, I found out I was excluded. I never disrupted your thread because I never posted there. You speak with forked tongue.

What I find interesting is some of the folks that stopped posting on MDD (that were not excluded from MDD) because they objected to a moderated thread post regularly on the Clown Thread. Now it seems "for them" it is OK to exclude as long as they agree with who is being excluded and as long as the exclusions take place on the Clown thread. And, of course as long as it is not one of them...because they are one of the guys... Actually your selective memory is not surprising. You initiated an "exclusion process on your MDD thread because people did not agree with your direction of the market, or were unable or unwilling to spend time drawing pretty graphs of their theories. When anyone proposed a possible bull outcome to the shortterm bear, they were assaulted with numerous graphs showing they were wrong. Then when the market did start to turn into a bull, the "herd of you" decided that really this was a "bear trap", then when it didn't turn into a bear trap, it became a "delay in the second phase of a bear market. Your thread is a harbinger of bears who have no interest in bullish indicators, your attempts to "impose your will" on those that don't agree is blatantly obvious. I attempted to "predict" the outcome of the next ensuing weeks. When I did not support the theory with the appropriate number of graphs you "banished me from your moderated thread". Many of the people that were part of your thread that now no longer post are "bulls" because your thread is now known for market analysis "as long as it conforms to the bear theory". So it was obvious that when others were banished from your thread, that they would likely retaliate. You insist that is a support of your theory of "moderation", that in fact others are now practicing what they opposed. What complete an utter crap!! People are retaliating because of the process "you started"! Congratulations! Right after you moderated me right out of the MDD thread. I started one of my own. The whole idea of market analysis results is a "theory". That theory may be derived by astrological reading, tea reading, tarot cards, dung reading, ear wax reading, pond scum reading, chart reading, fundamentals, or corner of your eye sleep goo reading, etc etc. I personally tend to dung reading, hence the name of the thread. You have chosen an approach that proliferates an "attitude", that quite frankly people feel a poor environment to expressing their opinion. I don't question your right to moderate a thread, but please change the name to what it truly represents "MDD Market Direction Discussion....as long as its Bearish and you like drawing coloured charts" By the way I have "excluded you from the Market Direction Predictions and BS thread" You are the only exclusion! Tit for Tat, Childish I know...but thats what all this is about! Subject 34630 You may submit a three page request by PM if you wish and I'll consider allowing you back in! In the meantime no-one needs a harvard education or 30 years experience in chart development to just "guess" what the markets are doing on my thread. Don't ever confuse your many many charts and graphs as anything else but a guess, and so far with all the supporting graphs that I have seen so far, you guys have been 100% wrong, so I'll stick to dung reading....it appears to be more accurate!! In fact I'm heading out to an EMU ranch this morning...every indication is that EMU dung has an uncanny ability of predicting Greenspans future biases and interest rate philosophy! That coupled with Buffalo dung, which is widely recognized as a huge predictor of PPI among other "tools" that will go unmentioned here(we have our secrets)...make our predictions far better than your thread. Something that my thread does that yours consistently fails to do is say "I was wrong". I have never seen anyone be wrong on your thread? Which in itself proliferates the "attitude"! the Chief
