Hotcopper down

Jump to new
I had a dig the other day at HC, this was mainly because of the CNP threads, heres how it went:

"Never goto hotcopper unless you want to be told yes I am right or no damnit I was wrong - they are all a bunch of back slapping on the UP and moaning whiney bitches on the down) and NO I don't work or am affiliated to aussiestockforums. Its just that with Aussiestockforums there is a bit of analysis, postings of announcements, and informed debate basically. Intelligence (ASF) instead of chat (HC)"
 
anyone having trouble getting into HC?

It was working about 10 min ago but now I cant connect

Tell me about it, when I post any thing about GDN/CVI I get moderated. You can ONLY post positive on the Hot Whoppers forum.
 
IMO you'd be ignorant not to check HC - it's usually very quick on posts when an announcement comes out and the mods have been coming down hard on excessiveness.

Of course (as with all forums) you have to disect the good info from the bad but to outright dismiss it would not serve your best interests
 
I also would like to know if he is still posting, if you used his name on Hot Whoppers you was banned for life.

there's a bit of that that's crept in here over the last few years as well ;)

I wasn't being specific towards anyone in my post either - just saying it would be stubborn to ignore it :D
 
Who cares

Post No 1 : It would appear that our friend Dub who is a Hotcopper Moderator is very sensitive towards the issue of Vimax being a paid sponsor of Hotcopper . Several months ago I was temporarily banned from Hotcopper for publicly questioning the Moderators decision to use Vimax as a paid sponsor and my question to Dub is why ?
Hotcopper in conjunction with Vimax the penis extension people engage in offensive and irresponsible advertising on a public communilty forum which is primarily structured towards financial and social discussion . So this is how the Moderators at Hotcopper have decided to generate revenue in quiet times by lowering the bar and promoting explicit products that incite sexual desire . This advertising scurge has permeated all four corners of the internet and even public forums with no definable age criteria like Hotcopper are immune from the lucrative partnership . Well the ASX has also taken up a sponsorship arrangement and the mushrooms continue to spread through cyberspace .
Dub referred to my last post as insane and inflaming but I guess the truth and a dose of reality does hit a nerve .
The question is will you bar me this time and if so could you please provide a logical reason for doing so .

Post No 2 : This post has been moderated on 13/03/09 01:21 (Other)
Comments: Gazelle ... I just realised that it is highly probable that Dub wont see this post in the obscure ASX General forum ... if you really want to persist with this you need to either repost in Feedback or preferably email HC Admin with your concerns ... a point of fact, HC Mods have no input over advertising so again, you best direct your concerns to them via email ... PD
What is your reasoning for deleting my post and what is your position at Hotcopper . My post is both imformative and based on factual imformation and if you are so sensitive about discussing the product that you publicly advertise and endorse then why seek a sponsorship arrangement in the first place if it creates a case sensitive issue . Dont try and backdoor me into a private email discussion with Dub as I would like to open up a public dialogue on this issue where all participating forum members can view the points raised and make an individually informed decision on the facts presented .
I have tried to be amicable and resonable on this issue and it is well within your capabilities as a forum moderator to inform Dub in due course that a topic has been opened up in the General Forum and he is welcome to contribute his opinion and in turn answer the questions that have been presented . Censoring my post is analagous to conveniently sweeping the issue under the carpet out of public view which is an arcane decision especially when you are operating and facilitaing discussion on a public level . Using force to supress public opinion is like a two edged sword . I am happy to wait for Dubs response and anyone in the public domain who would like to contribute .

.
Post No 3 : Perhaps you should open your eyes Zeta . It literally pops out at you . Now that you have distinguished the role between the duties of a moderator and administration the picture becomes clearer although that doesnt excuse the fact that hotcopper has resorted to peddling this sleazy and offensive line of material in what is supposed to be a community based financial forum . Contacting Administration privately via email is a pointless task . They have entered into a commercial marketing arrangement with vimax the penis extension people which has significantly lowered the standards at hotcopper .
Now I can count my blessings as a priviledged member of hotcopper . Thankyou for taking time to address my concerns

Since this time my questions have been answered and I have also subsequently been barred from the site for the reasons of the above posts .
I am so upset I cant sleep properly .

I hope this is a joke.
 
I find the threads on ASF much easier to read than HC.

The only reason I look at HC is for further information that may not be available here.

But ASF is always my first stop.
 
just wondering...do you all use the same nick on both sites...or a different nick
or do you just read and not a member
