Dan,
 
I agree wholeheartedly and I did 
likewise.
Is there something wrong with what I said or the 
way I said it?
I merely reminded him that he has the right to 
unsubscribe as we all do, what's wrong with that?
It is advice that I myself would take and have 
taken on other lists if I did not like the way the list is/was being 
managed.
If my totally neutral comment offended you in any 
way, excuse me.
 
God Bless and best wishes in all your future 
endeavors,Tom

      I would like to see posting privs for people who violate this rule 
      suspended just as much or more than I would like to see 
      people who occassionally attack others get booted off the 
      list.  "Me toos" and "thank yous" take up far more 
      bandwidth and are substantially worth less than some attacks.

      This is the big area of contention.  What a lot of people 
      don't know is that some people will post market calls or will 
      make subtle references to some magic method they use and then 
      when people (mostly newbies) on the list approach them 
      privately, the poster will try to sell them something.  Many 
      of you don't appreciate the fact that this is what Mark Brown was 
      trying to expose.  You all just get so frosted that he 
      made a personal attack.  You never consider the reason 
      for the attack.  Mark has shown me some of the stuff 
      that vendors ON THIS LIST tried to sell him when he contacted them 
      privately under an alias. 
      And let's consider the phrase "give each member's post the respect 
      it deserves".  Does a post deserve respect just because 
      a member of this list made it?  I submit the answer is 
      "No".  When someone posts "the market will go up and the 
      market will go down over the next few days", that is wholly 
      deserving of ridicule.  Compare profitok's posts to Hohn 
      Capello's.  Ben is very specific, Capello is very 
      vague.  Membership of this list can be broken down into 
      2 categories: the experienced and the inexperienced.  I believe 
      that when the experienced members of this list take the time to 
      ridicule worthless posts, they are doing a service to the 
      inexperienced.  How about you?  They are also 
      BENEFITTING all members of the list because the object of 
      ridicule will consider his or her posts more carefully.  If the 
      person being ridiculed is actually a spammer pretending to 
      make real market calls, that person will be more likely to 
      move on in search of more spammable pastures.  I don't 
      know about you, but I would like to be on a list where people 
      who put REAL MONEY behind their trades are the on people posting to 
      the list.  Not a list where anyone with an email account 
      tosses out completely hypothetical crap about what the market 
      may or may not do over a hypothetical timeframe.  How 
      about you?  I'm not interested in the fact that Mars is 
      up Uranus.  I want to know what that means for the market.  
      How about 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 
      attacks someone, the more sensitive members on the list could 
      think about whether or not 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 is 
      paramount.*** 
      I would like professionalism to be paramount.  Professionalism 
      does not mean politeness.  The respect or lack of 
      respect I get from this list has zero effect on my ego.  
      Zero.  If I were to post some crap and get hammered for 
      it, 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 Traders acted like Klingons who just won the 
      Soccer World Cup than I would like to belong to a list where 
      faux traders treat each other with respect and courtesy. 

      If you had to be on a list with Dic Migrains or Mark Browns, which 
      would you choose?
