There's an awful lot of disenchantment with public Forums lately.
So much so, I avoid them as much as I can. The only Forum
I support currently is Investment Tracker, a "no nonsense" Forum
that I visit daily.



I was a regular at the once popular MMG forum but in my
mind... it is not monitored closely enough. Personal attacks,
posts that are not backed up with facts, and group witch
hunts plague the threads there. Professionalism and the business
atmosphere has gone out the window these days.

Reminds me of my High School days before the Teach arrived
or had to leave for awhile. It went from question and answer
sessions, or quiet and subdued to... loud talking and noise in
60 seconds flat. Doing a mocking imitation of the Teacher
amongst laughter and suddenly realizing he is standing behind
you, puts a sudden end to that uprising ... lol

If MMG cleans up their act and the moderator(s) clamps down
on all the foolishness going on there...I'll  drop back in and see
how it's going there.

There is nothing wrong with a healthy discussion about a program
while extending general courtesy to others but grandstanding and
trying to attract attention while.. Oh hey!... look at my signature...
sign up here, cause', I think I know what I'm talking about here! ...lol
Ol' Gord has not time for that.

Investment Tracker is a relatively a new Forum and managed
correctly in my opinion. I hope it stays that way. Keeping
a reign on mutual respect can be a chore and everyone has
a right to their own opinion as long as it's not slanderous or
a personal vendetta against a person or a program Admin.

That's where the line should be drawn and action taken to first
warn and then the offender given the heave ho. "You all come
back now you hear, when you learn how to behave and have
some respect for others."
