Forrest Tom's Golden FBN Associate Rules of Thumb ________________________________________________ 1) Before submitting a post, ask thyself: "Am I a FBN Associate" Meaning, do I believe in the FBN Associate Mode of investing - agressively taking control of the float of a very undervalued company with great fundamentals, working as a team with a positive and caring attitude, and holding for the long term. 2) If your answer to number 1 is yes then, ask thyself: "Am I promoting teamwork to keep the MM's in their place" "Am I ignoring consistent naysayers or skeptics" "Am I resisting the temptation of pitiful personal attacks" "Am I contributing DD" or "Will my post help someone understand a concept better" or "Will it lighten the mood and create a postive atmosphere" BUT EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY 3) If your answer to number 2 is yes then, ask thyself: "Does my post help our FBNA Executive Team" by taking pressure of them by supporting them by providing basic answers to others so that they may focus on DD by keeping tensions low and promoting patience If you're doing all of this, then Congratulations. You are helping the FBNA Executive Team and yourself and are making the thread a better place. I think most everyone will agree that you are playing a key role in making us all very successful! If your answer to number 2 is "no", you are hurting the group as a whole. If your answer to number 3 is "no", as it is with many of us, IT IS CRUCIAL THAT THIS CHANGE, especially as the group grows. We can not make our TED, Janet, Mr.B, etc... dislike what they are doing, nor can we annoy them. They share with us out of their own good will. They do NOT need us to make profits, but it makes it funnier and better for everyone. PLEASE REPOST THIS. -Thanks Tom see exchange2000.com for my inspiration.
