POLL: ET Over the last 6 months - better or worse?

Quote from Mr. Bollinger:

We've got Gordon Gekko running the show nowadays, what do you expect?

Absolutely unbelievable. He's turning this entire site into his own personal pissing litterbox.
 
...I don't get it. I generally stick to what I think of as the "serious" forums, TA and Strategy Trading and Index Futures, and I don't see him. IMO absolutely the most trenchant questions that cut to the heart of successful trading generate the fewest numbers of posts. Contrarily, it is the least informative threads by the BS boasters that attract the most traffic.
 
ET is ALL F*CKED UP!

Can't even have a decent journal around here anymore without some troll spamming you every day. it makes it hard for people to find your post because they have to wade through all the BS first to get to it!

F*CK ET!
:mad:

Sadly true.
 
Quote from karabugla:

There are still some really interesting threads,
but one's gotta look more carefully to find em.
The development I dislike the most is that great
threads get interrupted by dissing, bashing etc....and
this happens a lot more than 6 months ago.

Partial Quote from seisan on ARogueTrader=Scientist thread:

Whoever they are, there always seems to be that underlying tone of an unhappy, angry soul lashing out against the world...coming out of nowhere to trash and crap out threads with no thought but their own small-minded, destructive interests...

Sad and inexcusable.

Baron and the Moderators should tighten down the parameters
of being off-topic on threads - even here in Chit-Chat -
and shovel the crappers right into the poop heap when they're obviously just into their own little crap 'n trash games.

ET continues to lose too many better contributors and readers
due to the same characters who insist on remaining junior-high jerks!


It is sad that all of us put up with these totally inconsiderate losers time after time, either by continuing to wade through their scattered-about crap, or just tuning out from fully reading threads because the crap's too deep to waste our time with, or worse, to see a decent thread thought or discussion abruptly come to an end because readers just became too turned off to post after another spate of hit-and-run trashing.

Actually, the ET parameters have already been tightened, we just don't take the time to utilize the mechanisms often enough to help rid ourselves of the lowlifes once and for all.

If that offending individual is not already on your Ignore List, then click on "Complain" at the lower right hand border of that particular post which brings up the following:

Report this Post to a Moderator
Logged in user:
Reason:
(Just type a few words in the Reason box why that particular post should be deleted by the Moderator)

This is ONLY to be used to
report spam, advertising
messages, and problematic
(harassment, fighting, or rude)
posts.


(Then just click on the boxed Send Report Now!


Now, a lot of us have already been aware of the Complain function - we just need to utilize it as often as necessary, and as fast as we want to be rid of all rude behavior. The Moderators need our help to let them know as soon as a spammer or pooper hits - they can't catch all the stuff all of the time.

So let's get after it, and clean up ET once and for all. Until that's accomplished, Elite Trader can't fully be the best site YOU want it to be. :)

Spread the word!
 
It seems these 2 guys don't like GG 'cause he questions their
sacred religion in Chat. I guess that is just too much for someone
like "Mr. Bollinger." Look at the true motives here for apecoil etc.......

This type of folks used to set fire to guys like GG for this stuff.
I guess the mob banning and "shutting up" is what they try to do
nowadays.

The more sheep the better, I suppose..for the few wolves like me.:)

I don't belong to any sacred religion. I think GG could show a little more respect to others though. What's the point of him preaching atheism? It would be just as annoying if someone were to start preaching christianity or islam by starting a bunch of threads. I don't really care though, not my site to run. I just responded to the original question, "Et over the last 6 months - better or worse?"...and I stated my opinion. I didn't start a thread to bash GG.
