You do with the thread as you please - you've already made up your mind. It is startling how censoring the most benign of topics is deemed not worthy of the internet. Roll on decentralised internet...
I'm pondering whether to remove the term 'advice' from your title (you must have thought that to have been a bit of a hoot at the time ), or just keep your jokiness there for all to see.
There have been complaints about this thread from people who want us to remove it, but we are not into censoring just for the fun of it.
And you may be happier on 4chan - I believe that is the archetypal decentralised internet."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

Perhaps I'll start a thread on the debate of enforced lawful pronouns. Get caught saying something that offends a minority? Hang em!!"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Either cUK is hacked or there's an abuse of power at play. Obviously the latter."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

I can assure you that I did not add "highly unreliable investment advice" to the title of this thread that contains highly unreliable investment advice.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Originally posted by scooterscot View PostI'm sorry to hear that, really I am. Who what where when or is it just speculation? It is a highly volatile asset class and you don't expose yourself with more than you can afford to lose. Remarkable folks have lost money since the lows of 2017, all you need to do is hold. 98% of investors will fail at this first hurdle.
I know folks that have lost money following the AMD thread.. point is people are losing money all the time because of financial illiteracy & emotion, you can't blame others for your mistakes.
The cryptocurrency thread is intended to be about the wonderful technology that is blockchain, not about price speculation, even if that pops up time and again by myself or others, which is fun. Blockchain tech will transform the internet and IT services throughout the next 10 years, we're about to enter an entrepreneur boom over the next ten years.
I'm very aware people like you exist in the investing world, so far up their own bums they can't see daylight anymore. The ones that produce the spammy websites to buy their books or subscribe to their almost evangelical musings but never had to suffer one to this extent. Gotta say it doesn't paint you in a good light at all. Your delusion of grandeur, misguided passions and blinkered single minded approach is pretty eye opening, but not in a good way.
We already have a crypto thread which contains exactly the bollox that is going on in here so why do we need another?Last edited by northernladuk; 4 May 2020, 10:58.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment
