Sale over.

Gg jdawg you have my support bro !

Why would that matter to me? I have no idea what they thought, nor is it my concern. In case you didn't know, I didn't infract any of them.

But no, it doesn't strike me as the least bit odd. They have no idea that jdawg has a list of user notes about these different issues a mile long (I'm not saying that's all bad - much of it is a documenting of PMs exchange about this), that he has applied for Marketplace Approval more than once and been denied.

This has, however, given me pause for thought about this statement I made: "those of you left in suspense for the next few days, this is what happens when you buy stakes somewhere you should've known it wasn't permitted to sell them". Given how widespread this practice has apparently become, that statement probably wasn't fair, and I apologize for that.

It didn't occur to you that maybe I had done exactly that? I'm not known for making snap decision to ban people on these forums, and I find it somewhat insulting that you'd assume I did it on a whim.

Yes, today. I found out he was selling shares here, circumventing the marketplace rules, so I gave him a warning - 30 points and a tempban, as it was what I'd consider a fairly serious offence.

You seem to be treating this as some kind of major consequence. He's not permabanned. He got 30 points and 3 days off, and if he feels that is unduly harsh, he's welcome to email me (address can be found in my profile), and I'd certainly consider reducing the ban.

Surely, you'd be wrong. I've never seen any of those posts, nor have I seen a report of any of them. But you seem to still be missing a very key element that makes this situation unique. jdawg has applied for Marketplace Approval before and been denied. Posting to sell shares elsewhere in these forums is a direct circumvention of the Marketplace rules. If that's happened before, the same consequences would face those posters if I was aware of it. There is no bias, and jdawg isn't being intentionally singled out.

LOL, really? The fact that jdawg himself has posted even more information about the issues than I have didn't close this issue for you?

Boy, you sure have developed some kind of angry mod profile for me from one incident, haven't you? I don't think I've ever banned someone merely for insulting me.

I don't think there's really a need, but go ahead if you like. At this point, I expect that we'll discuss general policy around this in the mod forum, and as I said, jdawg's welcome to email me about the ban.

I'm not sure what relevance that has to this issue, but what forum rules are you concerned about? That thread, and a thread in the high stakes forum, are the only threads where P2P transfers are supposed to go, and the Marketplace actually doesn't allow P2P transfers.

I just want to add, I'm not passing judgement on whether jdawg is a good or bad guy, or a good or bad investment. From everything I've heard so far, he sounds like a good guy, and I haven't had any personal issues with him.

This is a very simple issue of having been denied Marketplace Approval, and then circumventing the rules by trying to sell elsewhere. I posted about it in this thread as I knew people who were following their investment here would be asking what happened anyway, and also so people would know this kind of thing wasn't allowed.

I say lets push this staking stuff aside and start posting boobs <3

Super NOM.

Thread has AIDS.

Will take 20% of boob action.

NOM

^^ +1

Not sure about that nom. People might mistakenly think this is Ozi's policy.

Mondays suck balls.

This alot. On the upside i think ive decided on my gift for secret santa

Yup me too. Now I just have to get off my lazy ass and go and get it.

I wonder if I can start selling action on women I can't afford. Or I can just start dating that girl who apparently doesn't eat.

Well it will be cheap taking her out for dinner imo

I'm done already - shopping done, purchased, wrapped, packaged, signed , sealed, shipped, imminent delivery.

Obv slackers ITT

Isn't it? Oh, dear......

I'm not sure how long I'll be able to resist going to Atf to see if there is a thread there. Is it sadism or masochism when you want to be put in pain?

It's hard to be whipped when the dominatrix has no arms.

pfffttt...this from an obviously *****whipped married man. LOL

reserve 69% pls, thx.

Wat! OK, so Bee has 20%, spliff has 69% (sounds sneaky)...*counting on fingers, carry the one....*

OK, I will take the other 11% women he can't afford action on TBob.

Wait, Bee has boob action? Or TBob women boob action? Can we get some clarification in here? How much action does TBob have left? Will TBob even get any women action? I believe he is solid tho, so whatever is left after spliff buys, I will take the rest TBob.

Xfer on Frederick's of Hollywood acct is fine?

BS

I can and do. Not sure how the forum software can force me to take notice of posts.

Idea for people's Xmas Pressie?
