Quote from dgabriel:
Gordo, I have always smiled on you fondly, and will continue to do so. But you and several others are not in possession of the facts regarding Mr. Hershey.
Hershey started a fight with me in my forum (TA) because I deleted a personal attack he made on another member. Irate at the deletion, he then directed his attack at me, which I deleted. He became ever more insensed and continue his barrage, some of which I was forced to delete.
The circumstances of his expulsion are unknown to me but I gather he harrassed too many members.
My personal feeling is he is full of shit, that he preys upon lost youngsters who have failed at trading (not unlike yourself), and presents himself as the steady raft in the turbulent sea.
I don't know whether his specific trading methods are effective or not, as he has bever been able to explain them. This he says is the fault of the reader, not him. He speaks in tongues, commands you to free your mind (or miss the money train) and follow his pied piper rantings. By the time the lost soul should discover what Jack is about, he is in too deep to and exists in a state of denial. He has become a Happy Jackster.
Jack is a power trip, and unlike most trading gurus who spout a method, he spouts a psuedo Zen frame of mind. Sort of like a Marxist, he says that if you understand him, you can only accept him.
I understand him, I reject him.
He is nasty, mean, immature, bullying. He uses threats whenever someone challenges him and he has done so now, in his alias as Grob109, telling Baron to delete this thread or he will get his gang to badmouth the site to Barrons.
All are free to go strum the chords of Happy Jack.
