    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Yep. That's it. And I hope your solution works out. And speaking of solutions, will the max size for uploads ever be increased? I'd just as soon not have to keep providing links outside ET.

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    As I said, I have no problem with dissenting opinions IF the person expressing that opinion has at least read the material. Otherwise it's just hijacking. There are many people here trading in ways that have nothing to do with PA, but I don't travel from thread to thread to thread as BS does...

    Is that what that sticky stuff is? I was wondering.

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    The purpose of the TWS thread was to attack the SLA and those who were attempting to implement it, so it should come as no surprise that those of us who are using it would defend it, particularly since the OP never even bothered to read the material. And since he put everyone who was a SLAyer on...

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    On TL, back before the founder sold it (for tons of money), there were weekly and monthly tallies of the Most-Thanked posts (Post of the Week, Post of the Month), and those who "won" got Amazon gift certificates. I thought -- though I have nothing to support this other than an impression -- that...

    You also make posts of value, even though I don't always agree with what you say. Some other vendors, on the other hand . . . :)

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    When it comes right down to it, I've never really seen the point in the Likes thing anyway. Before Facebook, people could "thank" someone for having posted something, and the Likes were just redundant. But the Facebook culture has now taken over everything. It would be perfectly okay by me to...

    Even artemstreb (or whatever his name was)?

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Depends on the reason for the dislike. BS, for example, has gone on for 1200 posts attacking the SLA and everyone who is interested in it even though he's never even read it. This is not a sufficient reason for posting a "dislike".

    If such a thread is deemed necessary and desirable, it can be opened by a moderator. Or by the owner.

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Now we're going back into ancient history :) The problem with Jack stemmed largely from the claims he made, particularly the claim that he made three times the daily range. And given that he invented his own language, not unlike Tolkien and the Middle Earth languages, the situation was ripe for...

    And if one isn't interested, why post to the thread? Much less go on and on and on about how everyone is wasting their time (if they are) and how useless it is (if it is) and how the true path may be found elsewhere (if it can). If there were nothing to it and people made no money off of it...

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Agree, though "constructively critical" may need a bit of definition. For example, claiming that indicators are worthless doesn't mean much unless one knows how the indicators are created and, preferably, why. Insisting that a system or method is useless doesn't go far if one has no idea what...

    Big Mike's Trading. Experienced internet maven that you are, I'm sure you've heard of it.

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    No reason to assume the worst. I don't know of anyone offhand who objects to reasoned and rational disagreement (at least up here). The problem is those whose sole purpose is to disrupt and hijack the thread. If it doesn't work, it's simple enough to backtrack it. It's at least worth a try...

    If you mean the ACD Maverick, he's back. As for riskarb, probably not.

    I do, but I'm done for the day. Wound up? No. Just out of patience.

    There's always BMT. Except for the fact that you'd last maybe five minutes. Guess you'll have to pony up those advertising dollars.
