Some of us lost millions and whine too. This is as good a place to express our feelings as anywhere. Freeus

<<KG4! The people that are reading your whining posts lost Millions Yes! Millions in the spring and never whined on this board.>> I suggest you go back and take a look at the posts. there was plenty of whining going on....even by you. It just seems that certain people are held to certain standards on this board and others are not.... and that is that. Today alone, I heard venkie mention extr is killing his portfolio, I watch freeus freak out in every other post she writes, I see nichols mentioning that as soon as he bought, extr tanked and etc, etc....that was all just in the last hour or so. Yet, I make a comment, and.......... <<No we are not a tad bit on edge just tired of people who are and think we want to hear about it.>> SI has a neat feature...it's called an ignore feature. You choose not to use it on me, yet you choose to attack me constantly when I am not even posting to you......I see plenty of folks making plenty of similar posts as me and I see plenty of folks that got there ass whooped by this market and have let it be known on this thread, yet you choose to single me out. Dealer, I have nothing against you, but I do take offense that no matter if I post to Bob, Jim, Paul, Mary, Sue, John, Dick or harry......YOU always seem to come back and respond for that person. You seem to think you speak for everybody, yet for every post today from someone that thinks I am whinning, I get PM's frm folks that are feeling the same things and public posts responding to me in kind. Yet you feel it is your duty to follow me around and comment on every single post I make. <<Make you own decisions and take responsibility. No one is here to be your individual broker. They can be obtained for a price but not on this board.>> Oh give me a break...I do make my own decisions and I do take responsibility for my own actions. I am not looking for a broker on this thread. I ask the same questions as others, yet you persecute me for it. Not only am I not looking for a broker on this thread I am also not looking for somebody that is going to respond to my every post, no matter who it is posted to and no matter what is said, and then look to engage me in some useless battle. If somebody does not want me posting dircetly to them, then they can tell me and I wont...YOU do not need to follow me around, responding to every thing I say looking to engage me in battle....why dont you do us both a favor and just ignore me. I really am a tad bit ticked off right now...I went back and just now looked at my posts today, as well as everybody elses. I see nothing wrong with what I said....jeepers, I have a stock down $15 ....am I not allowed to comment on it like others have??? I didnt make a zillion whining posts....I made a comment that itwas disheartening to see my extr calls so diminished which it was. What the hell was so bad about that.....I see plenty of folks saying similar things and just as regularly, yet you choose to single me out?? I will say this....it is plainly obvious that there is a hieracrchy on this porch. As I said, certain folks are allowed to do and say as they please and others do not. I love freeus to death, but let me tell you something...she posts far more often and is twice as freaked out as I am most of the time, yet she is welcomed with open arms. There are other examples as well. Tom, who I respect greatly has said he will hunt me down and find me if I ever leave the porch. Yet you dealer, find it necessary to follow me around and be the voice for everybody. Yes, I am sure there are a few people that may think I whine, and may not want to listen to it...well babe, there are also plenty of folks that feel for me...feel for what I am going thru because they too are going thru it....some post, some do not...the point is, I am trying to figure out who died and made you queen and the voice for one and all. It also pisses me off that I have to spend the time defending myself to you constantly, when most of the time I am not even talking to you. Again, was I gone the day that somebody died and voted you the queen voice on this thread. Would youlike to see the posts I get from people that are thrilled I post what I do....just because there are a few people that feel acertain way does not mean that everybody feels the same way and it is not right for you to assume that what you and a few other people feel, is what everybody feels and thinks. Jesus...I make a comment, as we all do, and look at the $hit it starts.
