@jay yeah I don't see how people are making money from it tbh. There must be lots losing out

@jay why can't they earn divs?

@Milnerman kinda stuff started by random people where they update daily and conversations start up and you become more like friends.
For instance I might start one saying my target is 3k by August to pay for xxxx and I just chat on it, update it daily etc.
I certainly think it needs to be member led

I like diary/challenge type threads. I like reading articles but find they are nearly always written in the opinion of the writer, and don't take into account both sides etc.
I especially feel strongly we don't do enough to make it a happy place for newbies.

@ScouseSte I agree and i don't have a problem with the post, it could be a very good debate. Just the name being there (I will continue to be vocal about it, I feel very strongly about it, even with all the slagging off I get on Facebook for it). The name adds nothing to the debate, it just doesn't need to be there but could have negative results.

Try and remember, when profits dry up due to saturation, bad trades from others will be where you make your money. So it is rather important that people lose with a smile, rather than think they are being looked down on.
Not just the guy in the post but another 100 newbies could be watching this post, and wondering if they will be the next subject of a name and shame, and this could put them off too.
It's just about being a bit respectful.

On that note my feelings have been made clear on this thread so I will leave it now and head down to the pool. Enjoy your day guys, and I hope rashford scores a hat trick!

@Vespasian32 yeah with the risk of getting closed too I guess.

@Vespasian32 that's a nice deal!

@MickTurbo it isn't constructive. Even the thread title basically says 'wow look how bad this guy is'

Simply covering his name would easily solve this problem and we could have had a proper debate about it.

@MickTurbo no, don't do it because the person is entitled to use his money in any way he seems fit without fear of ridicule.

@ScouseSte
It isn't irrelevant because the guy could browse the forum, read this thread, think you are taking the piss out of him and leave again, even leaving fi.
It doesn't matter whether we can identify him as much as whether he can identify himself. And it's putting on a public forum 'you are bad'.
It is similar in poker when people out hands up to dissect and it was quickly universally agreed to cover up people's nicknames. It needs to be the same here imo.
