Poll Description:
Hello, friends,
I have just spoken to Avery (TheRumpledOne) and he told me that starting today (now), he is banned from the Tradestation forums.
First, I thought it was a bad joke, but it turned out to be a (surreal enough) reality. So starting today, there won't be any new posts by TheRumpledOne, one the most valuable forums contributor. Can't you believe? Me neither..
The reason is not quite clear to me, it seems that the problem was with the contact information Avery posted along with his code in the forums.
Dear Tradestation guys, could you please explain to us what has happened? Could you please restore TheRumpledOne's access to the forums? Thanks in advance.
So the question for this poll is obvious:
Do you vote for restoring TheRumpledOne's access to the Tradestation forums??

Either I am too dumb to figure how to vote VERY IMPORTANT or that functionality has been blocked. I imagine it is a short time before all this is gone from view so if you where working on something get it backed up right now. Someone confirm either situation please. Dan

The person that says the effect would be negative....Do you have the courage to explain that vote. Also if this TRO created and contribution driven forum has a negative effect how is it that you where a primary respondent? Anyone tracking that logic?

Any of you have the courage to even attempt it? Negative effect....my posterior! I want to hear your logic and review your public contributions. Any explanation of why you are reviewing a negative forum on a regular basis? Anything that would reflect your true character would be appreciated.

Tro has my vote. He has certainly helped me with learning how to write EL which isn't that easy. It's crazy that someone can get banned just because of putting some contact info in a code?! Oh well. Hope I don't get banned....

I think he was banned for starting a separate discussion group on Yahoo. There was a link yesterday at the end of the MTC thread. I think his plan is to post code there freely without concern about the board police.
Too bad, I subscribed to RadarScreen just so I could use some of Avery's indicators. You would think TS would take a more thoughtful long term strategic view. TRO has been more help to me in learning to program in TS than all the TS stuff combined. I signed up over at Yahoo so I could continue to have access to Avery's ideas.

Dear Forum Members,
Thank you for your support of the forums. I appreciate the support you have all shown TRO, however, I cannot discuss the details of why he has been banned since that is a private matter. I can, however, inform you of the numerous opportunities provided to TRO to stay within the forum guidelines.
The forums are the property of TradeStation Securities, Inc. and they need to reflect the standards in which we do business. I thank you for everyone's feedback on this matter.
Thank you,
