The sad thing is your the first to have ever made my ignore list. I think the major reason being I don't feel like I've ever seen a positive response from you. Maybe you do respond this way but it seems you ALWAYS have to pipe in if a negative can be posted. This is common from many members on other sites but not here. On this site we are a smaller community and we all lookout for one another. Sure the bad eggs flow from time to time but for the most part it's all good people here.
One thing that is for sure is I never hold a grudge long term. One other guy has tried to be negative like this at everything I posted and he quickly learned no good could come. He recently just closed a deal with me on another site and we have both put it behind us. You can't go around questioning the integrity of guys without just cause.
As for me leaving its not you alone causing this. I'm not the type to give you that satisfaction. It's the drama as a whole. The constant rants etc. Just as I posted a few weeks ago it has no place here. I do understand the comments you made about my list being here but the fact was I was trying to use it as a final way to stop the ranting and this is where the activity is. It was contradicting though for sure.
I guess the way I see it is if the fun gets taken out of it then why continue it? I'm not having fun lately here. If I can't have fun then I don't feel it's in my best interest to continue. I had all but stopped trading anyway and was just doing the occasional deal. I was really just gonna hang around and read the forums and help where I could. I was gonna run round two for the competition and I was gonna enjoy myself but its not even looking like I can do that. So its best to move on.
For the record, I would had gotten zero satisfaction out of you leaving, it would had been the complete opposite. I already feel bad for going over board, had you left due to that (Which I understand you aren't) it would had made it worse for me.
Best of luck to you and my apologies for coming off like a dick. I am a business man as my day to day job and I deal with lots of business savvy people on daily basis. It is part of my job to analyze every little thing and make sure my company isn't being done wrong or getting ripped off, and it has become my nature to not trust blindly and to investigate things that may not appear right at first glance.
Again thank you for clarifying the things that you did, as it certainly makes you come off in a much better light... Water under the bridge as fas as I am concerned.
