    Ironic? Or not.

    That's funny, your description the of picture sounded so familiar so I clicked on it and its the same picture I saw on a posterboard ad yesterday for some wireless company local to me. I didn't understand what she had to do with the cell phone they were selling either. Apparently these stock...

    Mbtrading site navigator and site down!!!

    On chat they said the cause was an electrical switch failure that took out power to the whole building and it also took down the phones :eek: No matter how many precautions you take there are always going to be rare but vulnerable single points of failure.

    MBT chat is back up (actually it looks like everything came back at the same time, including the web site)

    Mbtrading site navigator and site down!!!

    The fact that not only is their trading infrastructre hosed but you can't even get to the home page of their web site (not talking about logging in here) certainly makes it seem like something major got screwed up, maybe network problems. You would think by now they could have at least put up...

    I'm sure they are answering the phone as fast as they can, the call volume must be huge. There is no recourse - that's the risk of online trading. The smart thing to do is have a backup broker account so you can make offsetting trades. At best they may offer us some free or discounted...

    Although in reviewing cajunboy's previous posts it sure looks like he has no love for MBT. Got to respect the willpower of someone who has just 12 posts in 3 1/2 years though.

    Really, what symbol? ER2 fine for me now. [Edit: LOL, spoke too soon. Navigator just lost all connections again as of 11:26]

    I dunno....I think you need to lighten up - it seemed obvious to me it was a joke

    All quote feeds back at 11:19, web site still down. [ET Mods your server timestamps are way off - it says I posted this post at 11:16 (my timezone) even though it was closer to 11:21. Not the first time this has been reported - How hard is it to run an NTP client on your servers to keep...

    Also no level 1 quotes (last quote still frozen from 10:39), just level 2 working (at least for ER2). I wouldnt dare place any trades right now.

    Has it? Sure looks like they are still having problems to me even though the Navigator is back up. No T&S quotes; When I try to connect to their web site I get this:

    Using real names on message boards

    Holy cow. I just meant it didnt jive because I saw only two possible sequences and neither made sense to me: (1) You had credit card fraud occur against you personally but you did nothing and then you heard about the court case and then you started following your credit card everywhere...

    Using real names on message boards

    Yes, and so? If you were to constantly worry and/or take action about every possible negative thing that could happen in your life then (1) you could never enjoy life and (2) you would spend all your time and energy trying to prevent something that may or may not ever happen. [B] Funny...

    Using real names on message boards

    I know you are half joking but from your reply you obviously missed my point. Allowing one person at random (the person I was replying to BTW, who was not you) to have your credit card number has a very low chance of causing anything bad to happen Posting your credit card on the internet...

    Using real names on message boards

    Frankly I wouldn't worry at all and if you were standing next to me now I would be happy to let you copy everything you want from my credit card. What are the odds that the individuals you are dealing with (waiter, random table that the card visits) are in the business of identity theft? And...

    Using real names on message boards

    I don't think its stalking but I do think its hilarious. What happens when the waiter/waitress doesnt take the check & credit card directly to a pay station but makes a stop at another table and/or does some other routine duties? Does Mark just hover? And while the odds that you will end...

    Using real names on message boards

    I don't really understand your point here. You are saying that your name is not something that you can freely give out because using just your name someone can steal your identity? People's names are not secret and they are freely available from a number of public sources. Are you...
