It is becoming harder and harder to manage ASF with the limited manpower we have and as a result people will sometimes not be notified about post deletions. Sadly, they are simply becoming too frequent. However, there are a few things people can do to ensure that we can keep post deletions to a minimum:
1. Do not verbally attack or abuse other ASF members.
2. Do not ramp/downramp stocks. Always provide some reasoning/analysis to back up your assertions.
3. When posting in stock threads ensure all your posts contain some meaningful content.
4. Please report any posts that do not abide by the above three rules to myself or one of the moderators via the 'report a post' feature. (That's the little '
' symbol you see at the top right of each post)
I will lay it on the line here. There is absolutely no way I am going to let ASF degenerate to the level of some other stock forums. The more difficult it becomes to manage ASF the harsher the measures the moderation team and I will need to adopt to maintain standards here. Up until now we have tried the diplomatic approach but unfortunately that isn't having the desired results. We are now on the verge of suspending a number of ASF accounts, so please, if you have been contacted by myself or one of the moderators recently about ramping it would really be appreciated if you could adapt your posting style to abide by the first three rules outlined above.
I would like to point out that the vast majority of ASF members continue to contribute valuable/meaningful content to the forums and these remarks (apart from the reporting posts part) do not apply to them.
