Why Was Marsman Stifled?

I stand corrected. He was not banned,

Yet, but give it 2-3 days... He clearly hasn't learnt anything... At least he has a Twitter account so when the inevitable happens we can still follow him...

Also he gets the prize for fastest self contradiction:

" I DON'T NEED THE MONEY OF ANYBODY. I just had offered that people profit from my high profits. "

Come on Marsman, what part of SUBTLE was hard to understand in my post #8? Stop debating mods and stuffers, just post your results. And give it at least 4-6 weeks, you haven't even traded 3 weeks live... And sorry for your first loss...
 
Let's get everybody caught up as to the marsman situation.

● At the beginning of the month he started a thread in the Trading Forum that was totally irresponsible, suggesting numerous ways to skirt the law and quasi-legally conduct illegal activities. It was removed and he was warned.

● A short while later, in the middle of the night, he got into a heated back 'n forth with Pekelo (and others) in his journal and hit the Report button 9 times complaining that there was no moderator available to immediately address his concerns. That won't get ya banned, but it was annoying.

● In the midst of that he posted this:

That also didn't get him banned, but did get him a warning.

● Later, against ET policy, he posted:

That kind of stuff will normally get ya banned, but despite the huge EGO that was mentioned earlier in this thread, it didn't.

● And at another time he posted:

Again, easily enough to ban him, but I didn't. Instead I sent him yet another warning, reminding him of our strict No Free Advertising policy and alerting him to the new Vendor Account. But to someone who was supposedly killing it in the market even that inexpensive option was too costly.

● Then he took one of my PM warnings and posted it publicly. I guess he didn't understand that the P in PM stands for PRIVATE but, once again, it was very annoying.

● Next, within his journal he started multiple posts complaining about the moderation, letting readers know that the mean ole mod said not to PM him regarding his solicitation for money (and in doing so reminding them of a non-public way to contact him outside the journal). He was warned that a trading journal wasn't the place for such complaints but he continued posting them anyway.

So while any number of things could have legitimately gotten him banned it was the accumulation of offenses... where enough was enough. I wish him success at T2W but as far as Elite Trader is concerned everybody is now up to date.


Why do people need explanations as to why a douche is booted from ET haha. He was bannable the minute he opened his mouth with his BS. Earlier banning of some other "super posters" might have kept many of us around who filled chat and various threads :).

Why do you say that? Albeit his delivery left much to be desired, the guy is up like 233% in a few weeks. Perhaps his arrogance can be attributed to his cultural upbringing. (And no... I'm not a PC Hillary accolade) .

He's gone so it is what it is.... but I for one would have rather kept him here and let him elaborate over time on what he is doing. (and I already know... many have posted their theories on this)... But he was rude to the mods so whatever. He should have spent $100/month for a vendor gig....chump change imo for what he is making.

Would I send $'s to Eastern Europe without meeting someone in person? No f****cking way. But the guy has something goin' on.

That being said... there's another guru here.... VCXTrader. And he's nice. ;) Distressed bond debt..... way beyond Zandy, but there is something there.

How do you know he is making anything....you believe the bullshit on here.... 233% in a few weeks but he came begging for money on an anonymous forum? Enjoy the Kool Aid as we say....
 
The guy was clearly soliciting money, and continues to do so on t2w looks like. Something is fishy... he's just selling mad amounts of strangles in a pile of names so he should do well in this environment. But he didn't understand a lot of basic option concepts.... which I found very strange. Something doesn't sit right with the guy but he was entertaining no doubt.

1. Why do you need an explanation about others needing an explanation?
2. Because others did the same for years and they were getting away with it.
3. Now T2W gets the clicks not ET.
4. Yes, I wanna BELIEVE!!!
5. We wanted to see what happens until the better or bitter end.
