I used to spam RB, but I have never spammed iHub. I could care less about RB, but when it comes to iHub, I hate iHub spammers because I know this is a semi-high quality place to post.
Spam RB good, Spam iHub Bad.

Joe,
Could you please clarify your position on Spam?
I am somewhat puzzled by your apparent contradictory statements on the issue.
For Example:
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=271370
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=272388
In the first you claim to be a purveyor of canned meat products and seem to pat yourself on the back for circumventing efforts to stop you from spewing said canned meat products.
In the second (and in several other messages) you appear to be vehemently opposed to the distribution of canned meat products as practiced by other competing purveyors of canned meat products.
Please state for the record your real stand on this issue. Unless of course your stand is that it is OK for you but not anyone else.

ALready got one thing resolved. All I wanted is a response from matt for the spam - and I got one.
When another issues comes up. This board will come to use.
Joemoney
Joe. You must be bored out of your mind to start this board.
What is Matts board for?
You get responses from both Matt and Bob to solve problems.
You don't like the outcome so you start this? Hmmmmmmm.
Next excuse is we will need the board as the site grows bigger.
Is that so? Most of the time Matt does a fine job of picking out the trouble makers in the community.
Key word there is most.

Satanic colony isn't setting up shop here
Well, there go two of my planned boards.
My TOSes and complaining have gone ignored.
I have raised three wonderful children to adulthood.
We had several ironclad rules.
One was: if you whine, you don't get it.
Even if you could have had it if you had asked nicely, once you whine about it, that's it.
Cured the whining problem completely and immediately.
If you don't see the relevance of this post to your thread, others will.
Thanks.
You spoke my mind.
management has been unresponsive to many requests myself and others have
complained about.
Matt and Bob answer all requests.
Sometimes the answer is no.
No is an answer.
Live with it.
When people have individual issues and can't get the administration to listen,
A null set.

I aim to please.
Hey, this thread is getting something done and we only have one rep so far, lol!
I'm very happy with your response to my issue.
Thank You,
Joemoney
Make sure you read the edit to my post.
I find it incredibly annoying. And he knows that the disease better not spread outside of his "OK boards" to post it on.

I still think it's spam, and the moderators might not have a problem with it, but other members do! We've discussed it on the Jail thread a while back ago.
Just imagine how many people are not saying anything, yet still find it annoying.
Joemoney
Joe,
The issue you are talking about has been resolved. A while ago. I took it up with all the boards he "spams" and the board moderators didn't have a problem with it. So, that's peachy with me.
I believe in a community of very different communities. One might operate totally different from its neighbor. Not all the boards on this site go by the same rulebook. Some evolve into their own commuities and thrive with their own culture. So I let that roll. As long as a nudist or Satanic colony isn't setting up shop here, I'm a pretty flexible dood.
Now if he were posting that to public stock boards (my playground), he'd be spending a longtime sweeping the floors of my jail. Because, personally, I don't like it. But, the stock boards he frequents apparently do.
Kapeesh?

Wow! The "disappearing Edit window" bug just hit me. Didn't know if that was still happening since some recent tweaks, but when I clicked to edit my previous message, the page reloaded, and I couldn't edit the message.
That's a bizarre one. And since it's so infrequent that it happens, it's going to be a bugger to track down.
Well, that's a Matt call. I'm still curious, though. Can you be more specific? By PM, if you prefer?
I try not to influence Matt very much because, frankly, I think he does the Admin thing extremely well. I absolutely do NOT over-ride him, but I do offer my opinions when I feel I should.
That said, I've always said (and wouldn't be surprised if Matt feels the same way) that the Admin role isn't really about "punishment". It's about getting people to comply with the site's rules now and in the future.
In fact, I'm pretty sure that statement was the quote of mine that's been printed in the largest font. Was in a WSJ article about me a long time ago. Appropriately so. I think it's one of the most important things for an Admin to understand.
So, in my opinion, if someone is spamming, it's not "punishment" I'd look for. If I could get them to quit spamming, then I've done my job.
Are you saying you've reported a spammer (and they really were "spamming") and they continue to do so to this day?
When I TOS a certain member for SPAM, he gets no punishment and continues to SPAM.

Intelligent conversation regarding anything related to the markets.
I have issues with the quality of some member's posts.
Had you written that about 6 hours ago, I'd still be cleaning Bud Dry off my monitor.
BTW, it's members', not member's. :)
No, but now that your bring it up...
See, there's a difference between "unresponsive", and "didn't give me the response I wanted". BTW, you never thanked me for the computer lesson.
My TOSes and complaining have gone ignored.
There might be a reason for that.
But, I'm curious. Can you cite a recent example?
If they're administrative issues, perhaps you should clue Matt in.
If they're issues about how IH does business or are specific to the site's functionality, then you should clue me in.

Admit it. This is all about the fact that your total peoplemarks aren't showing on the Favorites page, isn't it. <g>
No, but now that your bring it up...
"Have gone unresponded to [sic]." or "They told me to stuff it in my ear." ;)

They do an excellent job, but a few issues (and I know more issues will pop up) have gone unresponded to.

Welcome AIM Guy to our committee.
AIM Guy will represent the Free Zone category. His category is rather new, but hopefully it will grow.

Perhaps the manipulation of thread headers is an issue that should be addressed....
Interesting. I'll watch this just out of curiosity, but I'm immediately struck by the intimation that you're putting together something that'll have real "power" to make changes. It doesn't.
Matt and I pay attention to what's going on and if something's wanted, and we agree that it's a good thing, it's done.
If your new thread proves to be a popular venue for a large number of the site's members to make their thoughts known to Matt and me, then you'll have accomplished something. I think the Q&A thread already accomplishes that, though, and so will some new threads Matt and I have been discussing.
I'm not sure what else you could possibly accomplish. Neither Matt or I have appointed you to speak on behalf of the community or to represent us before the community, and I don't think the community has conferred a similar appointment on you, either. So the intimation that you can somehow force changes to the site is wrong.
I'd no sooner let you walk into my house and start re-arranging the furniture.
Does this have anything to do with it now taking two clicks to find out how many people have you Peoplemarked? <g>
Edit In: This organization will work with the InvestorsHub administration as a group
That's the part of your header that drew my response. This may or may not be a good idea (open to debate), but the statement, as it stands, at this point in time, is patently inaccurate.
We recognize no such "organization" currently and prefer, instead, the more open, free-style method of just whining at us in public or PM. And I can't help but somehow resent your taking it upon yourself to declare the existence of such an "organization" and the insinuation that Matt and I are unresponsive to the community but will be responsive to your organization.
xxrayeyes, management has been unresponsive to many requests myself and others have complained about.
This thread may not come in handy right now, but as the site grows, people will have their issues. This is a thread to say "hey management, look how many people want this or that changed." By creating this, I'm not saying that Matt or Bob have been doing a poor job. They do an excellent job, but a few issues (and I know more issues will pop up) have gone unresponded to.
Joemoney
No idea what its needed for. But it is Joe, so I'm curios what it turns out to be.
I was just making sure it wasn't some board setup to cause a ruckus.
What the heck do we need a union for? Unions are organized to settle disputes between management and workers when management has become unresponsive. First off, we aren't workers and secondly you aren't unresponsive. But whatever. I guess there might be a need for some posters to voice their greivances.

So kind of like a Union.
Works for me.
This thread is going to be a HQ for a group of well known iHubers that will work together to get things done.
When people have individual issues and can't get the administration to listen, then they will come here. This might not come in handy right away, but as the sight grows and more people come, then we will need this.
I myself have a few issues and I have a few people who agree with me on those issues.
People will be elected into temporary positions on the committee soon.
