After the initial shock of seeing hocus reinstated I decided to give it a few days and see what happens. It appears that my worst fears are being realized. Frankly, this board has become a mess since then and is only getting worse. As much as it pains me I am going to greatly limit my participation here in the future. I sincerely hope for ES that things work themselves out and that the NFB flourishes.
Periodically I get requests by NFB members to look at posts, provide data, etc. which I am happy to do if I can. If anyone has any request or needs to get in touch with me I can be found at my new h*cus-free discussion board at:
http://groups.msn.com/RaddrsEarlyRetirementandFinancialStrategySite/
I'll still be peeking in over at least the next few weeks or so but I may not be answering PM's as promptly as in the past.
Good luck to everyone!

I will point out that roughly 90% of the "mess", aka disruption, came from members other than hocus.
I've actively participated here for a week. Most of the posts are "I cant take this anymore/I'm leaving/I'm retiring". Despite the obvious fact that this feeds the very fear expressed, at this point I'm already tired of it. Leave already.

If your primary intention was to tell people where you were going, you certainly fooled me by titling your post "I cant take this anymore" and spending the first paragraph lamenting the state of affairs of this board.
I also wasnt aware there was a time limit one had to observe before expressing an opinion.
See ya later.

You'll be missed, raddr. I've actually found several interesting threads in the last days, and haven't had too much trouble avoiding the mess. |
I agree on both counts. There are more interesting threads than the few disruptive ones. And those would go away if those folks could learn what you and I already know. Avoid the mess. Perhaps we should teach a class?  |
