<<I would say it's because you mocked and ridiculed other>> I did in fact lower myself and only responded to personal attacks and ridicule directed at me. To my knowledge I never initiate any attack. I'm not proud of my lack of discipline and allowing myself to have such low standard. As I understand the history, my recommendations were met w/ personal attack of character. I was only responding to those. I won't allow myself to drop to that low standard again. Thanks for the feedback.

I find your comment interesting. "I personally want diverse opinions. Mockery and disdain I will not tolerate. I can get that at the primate exhibit at my zoo" If you are not happy with another JUST IGNORE HIM with indifference. Not by using an ignore button. I find your use of the word TOLERATE of interest. Having been in a few dog and pony shows in my life I'd hate to see what would happen if there was some magic button to just click when one didn't care for the disdain or mockery that was presented. As a specific ex I sat in on a meeting with one of the Seven Sisters execs and a friend of mine said to one of the execs. " you don't know what the #$#$# you are talking about" I remembering wincing as I heard it but thought he's right the Seven Sisters exec is very wrong. In fact his stupidity cost the company some 100 M and eventually his job. Yet my friend told him the truth. The exec had so much disdain from my friend he attempted to have him fired but x was too protected. Maybe the exec should have listened. There's a whole bunch out there making decisions that should be listening and TOLERATING others. Even if the criticism is not what one wants to hear or contemplate. Maybe if we had more people using mockery and disdain in front of cameras and other we wouldn't be subjected to the stupidity of many decisions that affect us in our daily lives. How about a hmm you didn't read the bill yet you passed it? Are you brain dead? NO such thing as NAKED SHORT SELLING? Excuse me Senator. R U serious. I've lived in a few countries where they don't TOLERATE things. They show up in a caravan and remove you from an area to put you in jail. They lock you up if you are caught wearing a crucifix, lock you up and flog you before deporting you.. They spray paint a female if she shows her arms. THEY WILL NOT TOLERATE SUCH. HMMM They will kill you if you don't share their belief. YUP they are not tolerating such. They cut the pages out of magazines if the word or a map or Israel is contained. Or the black out the word Christmas. YUP they are not going to TOLERATE SUCH. ME? I don't put anyone on IGNORE. I'm a big boy and can just skip over a poster or read the posts that mock me, show disdain, put up a picture and attempt to provoke. BOO HOO.. MOM someone is picking on me. NAH, say what you want, write what you want in the end it all comes down to if one has talent or doesn't. ZINCMAN is GIFTED. PERIOD! Just saying. Now don't push the button and send me to the sharks ala a Bond Movie. Smile Fintas

The value of this place is that we bringing in good investment ideas either long or short trades. We come here to make money, but not alone. This is not a social club if one can't bring good stuffs please just stay as a lurker. I put people on ignore, not because we had difference but because those people frequently wasted my time to read their arguments without seeing constructive ideas. Believe they are nice people trying to make a living, but please don't waste everyone's time. We can clearly see many longs brought charts and fundamental analyses to the thread and shared their views and trading ideas. But, I don't see the shorts did the same sharing, or far from the same contribution.
