Subject: Re: O/T: An Injustice
philmordun, first of all, thanks for your post. Now let's see how much my computer skills have grown, since I'm not on my cell.

" (One or two literally fight to the death. "Ghu" comes to mind.)"
You hit a nerve there, ghu and I chatted privately very often. He was older than me, so I assume he passed. He was a very sweet guy and was abused and disrespected by the usual clowns in fools Ville. RIP if he passed.

I know for a fact that on the old yahoo and fools boards several wise guys used at least 5 IDS EACH or more to rec their own posts and even comment themselves on their own posts. I have no idea if that is policed on this board or if the usual suspects, can still use multiple IDS.

Many years ago, Jim aka mungo was kind enough to warn me that a group on the fools board was acting in concert to have me removed from the Fools boards if I kept questioning Buffett and his actions etc. Back then I was pounding the table for Buffett to make shareholder friendly moves. I wanted the stock split, buybacks authorized at material discounts to IV, brk to acquire the right of first refusal on all GATES F sales etc. You might remember better than me what other suggestions I had back then.

Just so you know, I never left the Fools board, jim was correct, the gang had the Fools take away my posting privileges and I was banned from the Fools boards. Even today I'm still in private contact with many of the sharpest old posters who refuse to post on the boards they weren't banned, they left voluntarily. At one point the gang got so out of line I went to the local police and friends at the FBI. There are certain things you shouldn't do or say on these sites. A few of the old gang are very active on the US Policy board. If you want a few good laughs go check out the brka yahoo board. There are a few guys on that board who still use many IDS to pollute that board, they have been doing it for over 20 years. Seriously. In 2009 an old friend who took serious abuse on the old gaming boards passed away, unhappy and very depressed, a few old timers here know who he was. He posted mainly on the AZR board before AZR was taken over. I'll leave it at that.

My gfriend forced me to learn how to type and use the computer in like 2000, prior to that I dictated to her, secretaries I had over the years etc. I never claimed to have great secretarial skills, lol. Feel free to contact me privately if you wish, I can fill in some of the spaces. To be honest I thought the FOOLs might get sued one day and I was hoping to add value to the lawyers representing the class but to my knowledge lawsuits never happened. I hope our gracious host has some type of disclaimer that we all sign off on that he is not responsible for the content, behavior, actions resulting from posts on these boards etc. I must have 10 people on ignore so who knows what children might post that I don't see. I know how to ignore others but if there is a way to prevent others from seeing my posts, it's above my paygrade. I better send this before I accidently delete it, take care, and thanks for the kind thoughts.
