I can't believe the mess I just had to clean up. Some of you need to grow the hell up.
Bans have been issued.
Sticky Notes!
From the brilliant keyboard of MEATLOAF comes a new feature.....Sticky Notes.
How it works:
- They are added/removed by Mods, Assistants, and Admin
- Up to 3 sticky notes per board
- A sticky is a post that is selected to be featured/stuck at the top of the message list -- it doesn't scroll and is highlighted in yellow (my favorite color) until the Mod/Assist/Admin removes it.
- To be used to highlight important announcements, brilliant posts, or in the case of Admin - important board announcements when you crazy people get out of control.
- Admin-issued stickies will also have red font.
To post a sticky, a Mod/Assist just needs the post # (not msg#), go to Manage, then Manage StickyNotes.
I've made THIS message a sticky on the Q&A board... #board-504
Enjoy!
I just pinged the Master of the Feeds...I'll let you know what shakes.
Can you create it in shockwave/flash?
Upload it somewhere and send me the link.
I'll take a look at it, then you can post it around here where relevant; then if it's something you want to do on a regular basis, we'll see you up with access to the video upload system like Clay and others use.
Tsk tsk, Jamaica. Bugger off, now.
>>Hi Matt,
Don't know what happened but the top 15 boards on the homepage is messed up this morning. Many of the boards listed don't even have a message posted today. Some have only a few messages posted all week. Definitely not the "TOP 15". Hope you can get this fixed quickly.
Trader
The system resets at midnight on whatever fancy formula Bob/MEATNIBBLETS came up with. So, at 5:30am, there isn't much data for it to work with. You'll notice as it gets close to gametime - 9:30am - it works everything out....
Please send me some links to what you're suggesting is a problem.
crashman,
I understand you're well-entrenched in the history and your opinion of Winning Brands, so it's likely pointless to have this conversation. However, my fingers are feeling rather energized this morning.
The ad was a direct sale by our team in London. I have no details on how it was sold, how much, or who contacted who. Quite frankly, I don't care.
Here's the ad - very harmless.
http://usas1.advfn.com/oasis/oasisi.php?s=520&c=758&cb=777441545
The landing page when clicking:
http://www.winningbrandscorporation.com/
When going to that page, to my surprise, I don't even see the ticker or any pitch to push me their stock. Very cool.
There's no disclosure needed. No conspiracy going on. Move on.
Site updates:
1) The Buzz Cloud has been changed a bit. It now has 10 font size levels to indicate 'buzz' versus the previous 5 levels.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/tcloud.aspx
2) Added a chart/quote graphic next to the Quote link when reading messages; should stand out better
3) Working on something super secret and ultra groovy with Meatloaf that can't be talked about outside the walls of Boogerville.
4) I had some fabulous beef tips & sliced turkey for lunch
Quick survey:
If we were to add a quote insert for the stock you're posting about when you're writing on GENERAL board (ie Penny haven, SwingStraddle, OTCBB Alerts, etc), would you rather it be
-a quote stamp (inserts and freezes quote data for when you post it)
OR
- a live quote that shows the latest price based on when the user views it
MerchFM on the RPDM is calling people names, how can I become a mod on the board to delete this stuff?? I have see people go to IHUB JAIL for less.
We've suspended that user and I've made you an Assistant there.
Not watching anything. They're making me work here. Bastages.
I be all cash in the portfolio - looking like a good thing.
I've actually just updated this board with the new ticker, that way all the old posts stay here...
Went to this joint today:

Had Burnt Ends & BBQ pork....yummmmmy!
Allan,
I'm expecting news alerts to be in place within 2 weeks. The news feed guy is doing my task list this week & next. To the right on the streamer, where the news feed is, it'll show a # when a press release has come out. A much-needed feature. It'll also include DJ news around the same time - very useful for big cap stocks.
As for the locking up/java issues - it does affect some users; some folks it's flawless for. I, however, am taking responsiblity for getting it re-written in Silverlight or Flash - I think it will make a huge difference and JAVA repulses me.
PM if your credit issue isn't resolved.
Figures. Came right back down, too. Geez.
In Boogerville this week. It's cold here, dude. How do you people do it?
If you need to add features/exchanges, let me know.
If you need to change credit cards, cancel, etc there's information in the email sent to you when you signed up; or feel free to email help@advfn.com or call 1-888-99-ADVFN.
Any discussion of Washington Mutual itself is fine; however any stock-related discussion (ie level 2, trades, technical analysis) on this board needs to be only about the equity WAMUQ.
Membership Drive Competition!
I'm quite excited to announce our latest contest. The last time we did this was in 2002. It went quite well, so we're giving it another shot and upping the stakes...so read closely! [$1-$5 per registered user!]
The idea is to get the word out on iHub to your friends, family, co-workers that you think would be interested in the site; create a friendly competition (we know everybody likes those!); and spend our marketing budget on the community instead of conventional advertising/marketers.
All of the details are here, most important thing is your MDC link:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/mdcexpl.aspx
Also, you'll note today, the mail icons on messages:
...and boards.
Feel free to use these to email your friends specific messages or boards they should check out - the link in the email will credit your MDC count.
Important details:
$1 per registered user that posts
$5 per premium subscriber
Contest runs 11/7/08 to 1/15/2009
Have fun, guys!

Took a whoopin'. Out at 9.33. One for the Tax Loss file!
That 'under new management' logo in the ibox cracked me up. Good stuff.
If it weren't for you guys, this board...and the rest of iHub would be dead.
Aha. So, I WAS missing something.
Sprint/Alltel killed some of their business with the co. Still looks WAY overdone considering the comments in the article. Mr. DJIA, give me a rally in the morning!!!

Glad to see you've taken over this board and run with it; board looks great last few days!
ADVFN (here), BigCharts.com, and Yahoo seem iHub-embedding friendly...
I don't recall that data ever being on iHub - I think you're talking about OTCBB.com, under Trading Activity?
Few more signed up:

and I've sent out PMs to quite a few more that I might have to beat up. .....
RE: Getting logged out for no reason
I think I've managed to run into what's causing some folks to get logged out. I wrote this via PM to a subscriber, but will provide it here for others benefit.
OK, thanks to you, I've managed to see what's causing so many people to get logged out.
If you're logged in to streamer/level2/etc with one browser - say IE and then you view iHub in another one - say Firefox, you'll get logged out of the streamer/Level2.
The reason for this is because of seats - you're only allowed to access one seat at a time per account - you can have as many windows/tabs open as you like viewing iHub/ADVFN content, streamers, message boards, whatever....but they all need to be the same browser.
What happens is when you have IE open and you're viewing the streamer, it's obviously using the 'seat' to pull down the quotes. THEN when you log in to iHub via Firefox and start hitting boards or pulling quotes -- all in real time now -- it tries to grab your seat for your account - and ends up taking it away from the streamer/level 2 and thus logging you out.
I certainly understand why they do this and the logic behind it, let me see if there's an obvious workaround from the boys with the funny accents.....
Went to gym and market gets pummeled; dangit. Let's hope for a final hour rally and bounce in the AM. I'm sleeping with my SVR tonight. She's just too cute.

Nice. Went to 10.90. I'm gonna hold for a bit; if the DOW gets back around -150 or better, this lil piggy will rock a bit higher it looks like.
Bot SVR 10.20. Showed up on whacked list; don't understand why it's down so much on this news...revs/profits rock; miss the estimate and get punished by 45%? Eh?
http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/081105/earns_syniverse_holdings.html?.v=2
I'm probably missing something, but what the hell. Right around 10 looks like ze bottom....for now.
You seem to be on the ball lately (am I drunk?)....what do you think of CEGE?
I tried to buy some at .29 a few days ago; didn't fill. Went to .44 yesterday; back at .36ish now.
Hmmm...he's there on my screen...
12x25
Out at 2.46. Man I was sweating that one. Done trading for the day. Fk this!
I say it goes much higher by EOM - over 3, but I am not capable of holding that long. I do NOT have the size cajones Tina does.
PHMB was one last night; I'll save the next one I get for you so you can see what's going on with it..
Level 2 Video Tutorial will be in the top right of the Level 2 page in the next few days - probably Monday morning.
It's quite groovy.
Fixed; DAVE, you noodlehead, if you read this, need to run that space trimmer on the tickers; I'm running into more that your crap query didn't hit. If you can't figure it out, I'll ask SONYA to write the code.
I'm not confessing to what I did at the close. Nope, not doing it.
