Just so you know Baron

It is great to see so many members coming together for the betterment of the community.

Thanks for organizing this Steve!

That (putting people on ignore) is already being done with one person in particular, Trader28.

As you may know from the Trader28 Informational Thread located in Feedback, some of us have agreed to do this in order to put a stop to the kind of posts that you refer to.

Today, with one exception (Joab), no one responded to Trader28 and therefore no one got into an argument with him either.

I believe we can make this work, if people will cooperate.

So far so good

Please feel free to join us if you wish..

Thanks
Steve

I understand your need or effort for such but it can't work in ET current state of lack of moderation that's needed to go along with such an uniform ignore effort.

All it takes is one to say I need to get one more word in to start a mudslinging fest.

All it takes is one to get the Pro-Jack folks showing up to defend their turf.

If you can get ALL (not some, not most but ALL of them) the Pro-Jack folks including Jack himself to openly say they will not respond to a single Anti-Jack message post or snip remark about the method...

You have a slim chance your uniform ignore team work will succeed.

Without those guys (Jack and Gang) on board...the uniform ignore is doomed.

Good luck and I sincerely mean it.

Well Mark

My approach is to do this "one person at a time".

Just based on today's result, we can see that there were fewer posts from Trader28. Also because some of us have agreed not to respond, there were no arguments with him.

I hope that others will see how much we depend on each other to make this a decent place and join.

Lets see what happens

Thanks for your comment

You would do well to heed your own advice. My last 3 sentences that you say prove your point were in response to YOUR reply which started with: "Since you are an instigator and your sole intention is to bash, then I'd say they (mods) are justified in their actions." Who the hell are you to judge me like that, to presume you know what my intentions are, and to say that "A-Team" misquotes of me and mod censorship of my attempts to correct it are justified? If you throw shit at someone, don't blame them for throwing it back.
Quote from The Swordsman:

You've made your point 100's of times, everyone knows how you feel. The conversation goes nowhere yet you still continue to bash people for the sole reason that they think and see things differently than you. I'm sure Romanus or Tums or even myself would not search YOU out to give you a hard time over and over and over and over and over again like you do.

The last 3 sentences of your post here just proves my point further. You are not capable of being sincere and your intentions are always clear from the get go when it comes to Hershey. If you don't like what is happening, change YOUR behavior.
 
This works BOTH ways.

It has to do with how you present yourself

If your objection is stated clearly and with respect, I think everyone will agree that you are entitled to that same respect in return.

Unfortunately, it looks to others as though your objective is not to disagree respectfully, but to disrupt, and to keep others from pursuing their own goals.

Thats why you are running into problems here.

My suggestion offered respectfully is that you re-consider how you approach posting.

Thanks

Steve
 
You are right, I made a pledge to ignore Trader28 and will now also ignore Trader666 (via ignore function).

Quote from NihabaAshi:


You and them are stuck together in a vicious circle...it's addictive for all those involved.

 
First, romanus was the one who "searched me out" but changed what I'd written to misrepresent me when he "quoted me" so you're wrong on that.

Second, as long as bizarre unproven claims like this (below) are made, you shouldn't be surprised if someone calls him on them. And if you think mods should use censorship to stop that, you don't understand the value of a free exchange of ideas.

You seem to think things should only go only one way... your way.

If i am in a trading room on the 10th floor of the MERQ, I can walk over to the screen and place my finger on a place in time and price and say by this point I will have you back to even again if you follow what I say. Then it happens. He may be down for the year with a guy in low eight digits, but if he wants to he can just begin at the moment and work out of that by trading as I suggest.
