+1 ....... I don't know where drownpruf gets his ideas from ..... His writing style is very similar to Atticus, that's why I think drownpruf = Atticus


EDIT: I see drownpruf is online now. That's another one of Atticus's habits, hanging around for hours after his last post. :)



And your habit, your f*cking POS, is to stalk people by placing them on your buddy list and sending death threats to their kids. Also, your "tell" is to use too many periods. All of his subsequent, and banned aliases, did it as well.

fxforex contacted Jack Larkin in an attempt to contact me, at which time I clued him in to your perversions. Why not off yourself and save me the trouble. And no, I didn't know this asshole from Adam, but I do now. Hide shopster, you pathetic worm and continue to deny the obvious.

The sick mofo also just recently started a thread about me.

You should be using a proxy, but I've been quiet about your alias as I expect that you neglected to do so and will therefore match to your shopster IP.

Run, mofo. Run.

Looks like Atticus/drownpruf has gone over the deep end. :)
 
Quote from EPrado:

He had to go. He might be a good guy outside of here.....but the "persona" on here was a huge problem. Deterred many real traders from posting here.....

Baron gave him a zillion chances....

This is completely false. He drove away the best educator on here and lurks in trading forums without such colorful history. He'll be back in aliai and far from honorable purposes.

Proflogic deserves to be back way more than marketsurfer ever should, but Goodboy screwed that up by obtaining his programs for demo without prof's permission so if that's still going on I can understand why not but the bravado wasn't about whether anyone can be a trader but whether the one's who need to have such automation can be identified as needing to do so and if they have white papers obviously more legitimate than anything I've seen posted so regardless folks like the alias Kevin Schmidt, Atticus and others in the over trading options forums had better realize there are people who share code snippets with journaling on here and that's how most of the valuable content is generated.

I hope marketsurfer never comes back to berate those of us that analyze according to hoil.
 
Let me tell you the skill that is non-existent amongst all these guys like marketsurfer, proflogic, and many others; and it's the lack of this skill that ends up getting them all banned:

The ability to ignore.

I'm not talking about using an ignore "feature". I'm talking about the actual human ability of ignoring, or simply put, not responding.

See, a man who can't ignore another man always feels compelled to respond when challenged. In other words, he always has the urge to get the last word in, no matter how many times the same subject been hashed out before. Perhaps this "need to always be right" stems from internal issues like low self-esteem. I'm not sure. But the reality is that this behavior always leads to the kind of narcissistic drama we see repeatedly on derailed threads all the time.

When faced with a troll, a typical person eventually says to himself, "This guy is never going to stop. I'm not responding to him any more."

But these guys that get banned never even consider this type of mental action. It's like the master DNA switch that causes a person to have the ability to ignore is completely turned off.
 
Brought to my attention by an independent thinker active till recently on ET,

<i><b>Richard Branson: Yes Men? No Thanks!</b>

It’s nice when people agree, but if everyone thought along the same lines all the time, nothing would ever change. Every company needs mavericks.

Independence of thinking should be celebrated and encouraged. This starts from the earliest of ages and continues for the rest of our lives. Schools are all about being able to fit in. Many businesses then follow suit and encourage people to toe the line.

The people who really make a difference are often those who don’t quite fit in. The ones who don’t act in the same way as everyone else and take risks rather than following the status quo. Of course, if you had a company solely made up of mavericks, very little would ever get organised! So it is important to get the right mixture, and to delegate tasks to people with the correct skills sets.

That doesn’t mean you should limit people's possibilities. The worst culture you can ingrain within a business is an atmosphere of saying yes to everything. When you are debating a new idea, those who disagree are crucial to getting the right result in the end. Yes men will only ever get so far.

Virgin has always had the occasional maverick embedded in every company. A business needs the occasional difficult, oblique, awkward creative person in the mix. Without a little sand in the oyster precious things never get made. As Coco Chanel said: “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.”</i>

Quote from R. Raskolnikov:

I really think comparing this "person" to Richard Branson is incredibly arrogant. The former is not even in the same galaxy as RB.

Surf was surreal and his alter Alias's had to be himself or related (thus making his banning all the more important) because no one could be that crazy...his calls all wrong and toward the end wild reaches..

Having posts, page views does not justify ridiculous behaviors that demean a career many of us endeavor to earn in.

"his calls all wrong and toward the end wild reaches.."

if stupidity or cluelessness was a criteria 50%+ of the posters on this thread should be banned.

you ask: why do you care.

to repeat:

objectively speaking..if you read my post you would never have asked that question.

additionally; i feel he went too far in everything, it was all a game to him. also, yes there are many here who as i put it "demean" trading. those who are scammers, fake, phonies, losers etc..still seem to know when to pull back in their rhetoric so as to just stay just below the radar.
