    Sponsor Shills Should Be Marked

    Actually, I don't think it's appropriate for sponsors or anybody else, to set up shill accounts in the first place. If you suspect that a sponsor is doing this, please PM me the sponsor username and the shill username(s) so I can deal with the problem. Thanks for the feedback.

    Welcome to Elite Spammer

    In light of the fact that the threads of ignored users are no longer visible on forum index pages, I think that simply putting these people on your ignore list will now be an easy way to avoid getting annoyed by their posts.

    "Subscribed" indicator

    I had that idea in the past but came to the conclusion that it was redundant because the number of replies/views are already adequate indicators of interest in a thread. I compared the number of subscribed users to the number of replies/views for a group of threads and found that all of those...

    Any way to ignore entire threads?

    This feature has now been implemented. Threads from users on your ignore list will no longer appear in the thread list for a given forum, or on the forum index page either. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

    My POLL thread asking if ZZZzzzzzzz is an asshole was deleted. Why?

    Actually, they're not ok. And since you haven't complained about them until now, they've just been deleted. Thanks.

    My POLL thread asking if ZZZzzzzzzz is an asshole was deleted. Why?

    Because threads started for the sole purpose of degrading another member are inappropriate.

    Post Time Stamp

    I got that time corrected. Does anybody know if there's a program for windows machines which keep the system clock sync'd up?

    where is the Neiderhoffer's thread? lol

    Why? Because the thread title and the first 20 pages of it contained accusations and statements that are totally untrue.

    where is the Neiderhoffer's thread? lol

    I have corresponded with reps from Manchester Trading and Matador, including Victor Niederhoffer himself, and they all say that the speculations posted in the previous thread regarding Matador's positions and liquidations, are completely false. Furthermore, Victor said "Matador is very much...

    Please "pin" this topic

    Done. If it's a really good and useful thread, I don't mind sticking it up there for a while.

    Merging threads

    We occasionally merge threads but in the case of the timmay book threads, I just deleted several of them, as I don't see the point of having that many, especially when then have similar posts.

    suggestion: a new subforum talking about Money Management

    The new forum has now been implemented. I named it a slightly more generic "Trade Management" to encompass a broader range of topics like money management, risk management, portfolio sizing and diversification, etc. Thanks so much for the suggestion.

    Any way to ignore entire threads?

    Yeah, I suppose it could be done but the reason it works like it does is because the thread that the ignored person starts may contain insightful responses from people you think are good posters.

    I think we should ban people who make YHOO style pumper posts

    If the post is clearly out-of-bounds, then we would do something about it on the first complaint. But if the post is simply controversial in some way, then we will see if any other complaints come in before we do anything.
