Ok,
since I started the interogatory, let me make a simple proposal that won't
please everyone all of the time but hopefully will be a compromise that everyone
can live with most of the time. I used to contribute moderately to RT but
unfortunately since I'm back in practice I just don't follow the markets as
closely anymore to make intelligent comments. Hopefully, that may change
again in the near future.
I do
like the idea of having those with something to 'offer' being given the chance
though on an infrequent basis. Those that don't like the idea of 'advertising'
in any area of life that comes on the internet as with any of us in any other
situation, have learned to hit that delete button mighty quickly. Most
traders who post on RT, don't do so on the weekends and especially on Saturdays,
when RT is pretty darn dead. There are preparations going on Sunday night
for traders in anticipation of the next trading day so Sunday would not be
a good day, nor would any day during the week when RT volume picks up and the
focus should be on the markets and not
elsewhere.
So my proposal is this..... ''''' 'Advertising' will be allowed on
RT on the first Saturday following the end of each month from 12:01am to
11:59pm.'''' No exceptions. Those breaking the rules will be
warned,'banished', hung at the stake etc. ie Following that plan,
advertising would be allowed Oct 1, Nov 5, Dec 3 etc. or basically just once a
month for one day, only 12 days a year....which are usually inactive RT
days anyway. Those who aren't interested in such will realize in
advance that on that particular Saturday there may be a bunch of 'deletes'
needed when they return to their screens Sunday evening. Knowing this in advance
can forewarn anyone that that's what will likely be from RT on that day, perhaps
among a few other non-advertising posts. Those who are interested in
procurring advertising/education will also realize that what they are looking
for, may in fact be advertised on that particular
day.
