It got quite silly in the end I felt that I didnt want to post here...
A couple of days a go I posted a comment on MQG, something like, Looks like its constantly up today............ You removed my post. Interestingly, no one had posted on that thread that day. After my post, someone replied, then a flutter of posts afterwards.
So you either removed my post because of the dots and my outrageous attempt to circumvent the length limitation, or because of it not "adding value". Which was clearly not the case due to it re-igniting a thread.
If you had a problem with it, why not PM me and explain what the problem was?
By the way, did you hear that a well known identity in Rose Bay has formed a partnership with a former media tycoon to develop a significant guano deposit on The Strand in Townsville, as our seagulls are better fed than anywhere else on the Eastern seaboard.
and your source is?

If you cannot work out what the problem is with a comment like that highlighted above, then I'm not sure a pm is going to help. A stock went up all day, what a fascinating insight, even if there were not a 100 character limit this should be removed anyway because it is a complete waste of space.
I feel sorry for the moderator that had to read this and then remove it, that is about 10 seconds of their life they can never get back.
LOL - thanks for your lastest post and insight that can be added to your 1214 other gems. I think you proved my latter attitude point though.
I'm sure when someone comes up to you and says, gee - hot day today, just to maybe start a conversation - you get right up them about their fascinating insight into the weather.
nomore4's,
Im a little offended by what your saying, grouping particular posters into one category...... one size fits all...
...
I suggest you go back and read my posts.....
later

There's a ton of great insight to be found when you read through old posts, and I really appreciate that you don't have to wade through tons of "OMG!!! It's gonna go through the roof!!!111" to get at it.
I picked up some shares over the last few days, averaging out at 5.2 cents after the largest chunk today at 4.3 cents. I dunno, I've got a really good feeling that these guys may be a great thing yet. I don't mind waiting a few years for it.
In trading halt now... I'm a complete noob, but have been playing with CSG stocks for the last month or so. The wrong ones, apparently... On further reading, it's for a proposed capital raising.
Well done MM - The point was about attitude, but hey, don't let the facts get in the way of your posts. Out of 14 posts, heres two with brilliant insight.
What a waste of time. And you go around buying stocks because of posts?? Real smart.
Is it ok to ramp about my car's performance on a qtr mile?
- If you state that a stock's share price is going to go up or down you MUST provide reasoning for your point of view. Posts that fail to provide any reasoning will be deleted without notice by myself or one of ASF's moderators. I understand that some will see this as 'heavy handed' moderation but the only alternative to this is to see standards of posting here drop to an unacceptable level and I am not willing to stand by and watch this happen.
- Posts that refer to some unidentified individual (a friend, a colleague or an insider) who has told you that a stock is about to move in one direction or another will be treated the same way and removed ASAP.
- Every statement you make must be able to be substantiated. For example it is not permissable to state that 'drilling results are about to be released and they will be positive' unless this statement is able to be substantiated. Posts that contain unsubstantiated statements will be removed without notice.
- Stocks are not to be recommended to others as a definite "buy" or "sell". As most of you are aware only licensed financial advisors can provide financial advice and recommending stocks to others as a "buy" or "sell" is inappropriate in a forum such as this. There are many other more appropriate terms that can be used to describe your view of a company's worth in relation to its share price such as "undervalued" and "overvalued", just to name a couple.
- All posts in a stock thread must contain some meaningful content. Bumping a stock thread by posting a smilie, a single word or an unrelated comment is not permitted and these posts will be removed without notice.
- Posting a series of posts that contain nothing more than a running commentary on a stock's intraday price action is discouraged as a single post is enough to alert others to a stock that seeing a significant move in one direction or another.
- The creation of threads asking others to recommend their 'hot stocks' or 'hot stock tips' is discouraged and these threads will be closed or deleted as they are primarily used for ramping.
I felt the same, there are a few really nice people that have kept me in it so far and the sad thing is I've actually found myself acting in the same arrogant way to try and compete. I think at the end of the day the attitude comes with the investment demographic.
