  >Please keep posts to the point and on the subject

  like to see posting privs for people who violate this rule suspendedjust 
  as much or more than I would like to see people who occassionallyattack 
  others get booted off the list.  "Me toos" and "thank yous" take 
  upfar more bandwidth and are substantially worth less than some 
  attacks.>Also, please give each member's post the respect it

  kind of messages will be>removed immediately.This is the big 
  area of contention.  What a lot of people don't know is thatsome 
  people will post market calls or will make subtle references to somemagic 
  method they use and then when people (mostly newbies) on the listapproach 
  them privately, the poster will try to sell them something.  Manyof 
  you don't appreciate the fact that this is what Mark Brown was trying 
  toexpose.  You all just get so frosted that he made a personal 
  attack.  Younever consider the reason for the attack.  Mark has 
  shown me some of thestuff that vendors ON THIS LIST tried to sell him when 
  he contacted themprivately under an alias.And let's consider the 
  phrase "give each member's post the respect itdeserves".  Does a post 
  deserve respect just because a member of this listmade it?  I submit 
  the answer is "No".  When someone posts "the market willgo up and the 
  market will go down over the next few days", that is whollydeserving of 
  ridicule.  Compare profitok's posts to Hohn Capello's.  Ben 
  isvery specific, Capello is very vague.  Membership of this list can 
  be brokendown into 2 categories: the experienced and the 
  inexperienced.  I believethat when the experienced members of this 
  list take the time to ridiculeworthless posts, they are doing a service to 
  the inexperienced.  How aboutyou?  They are also BENEFITTING all 
  members of the list because the objectof ridicule will consider his or her 
  posts more carefully.  If the personbeing ridiculed is actually a 
  spammer pretending to make real market calls,that person will be more 
  likely to move on in search of more spammablepastures.  I don't know 
  about you, but I would like to be on a list wherepeople who put REAL MONEY 
  behind their trades are the on people posting tothe list.  Not a list 
  where anyone with an email account tosses outcompletely hypothetical crap 
  about what the market may or may not do over ahypothetical 
  timeframe.  How about you?  I'm not interested in the fact 
  thatMars is up Uranus.  I want to know what that means for the 
  market.  Howabout you?>New membership to the 
  Realtraders forum is by invitation only, with the>exception of existing 
  members who are changing email addresses.I would like Mark Brown to be 
  reinstated.  And perhaps when he attackssomeone, the more sensitive 
  members on the list could think about whether ornot he has a point rather 
  than just getting your panties in a wad.>***Membership in 
  Realtraders is open to anyone who wishes to learn and>share information 
  in a professional environment where courtesy and respect>of one another

  Professionalism does not meanpoliteness.  The respect or lack of 
  respect I get from this list has zeroeffect on my ego.  Zero.  
  If I were to post some crap and get hammered forit, I would reconsider the 
  crap that I posted, not whine to the moderator.And I would much rather 
  belong to a Real Traders list where Real Tradersacted like Klingons who 
  just won the Soccer World Cup than I would like tobelong to a list where 
  faux traders treat each other with respect andcourtesy.If you had 
  to be on a list with Dic Migrains or Mark Browns, which would 
  youchoose?KentTo
