Granted I myself am guilty of posting in topics discouraging trades, but upon further thought i think that we should let people do what they want regardless of our beliefs. I mean it is up to us whether or not we send an invite to a trader or not. I for one will not encourage trading by giving invites out to traders, but if someone else wants to I think they should be free to do so.
I also believe that if people are breaking the rules they should be subject to any ramifications that are put in place for breaking them. For example Ftn does not allow or welcome traders, so if someone gets caught trading it FTN has every right to ban them.... I have no problem with this.
Alls I am saying is that i think we should all lay off the judgemental attitude we have towaards traders. Even though we may not agree with it, people do have the right to do what hey want with there invites.
In closing I'd like to offer advice to traders.... You guys dont have to trade to get what you want, just be helpful, give, and post around here and eventually u will get the tracker you want. But if you must trade you wont have to listen to me bitch at u ne more
Let me know what u guys think....

let me ask you a question:
what about cheating? should we be allowed to discourage cheater and make statments how bad their actions are?
should we on the other hand encourage newcomers not to cheat, because cheating breaks tracker rules?
yes of course we should, because cheating is bad and it will get you banned, right?
account trading is not sooo bad, but will get you banned as well, right?
everyone agrees, traders, non traders, anti traders that cheating is bad and should not be tolerated.
so what's the difference? why should we tolerate account traders and punish cheater?
tracker owners already made their decision. they don't evaluate. they handle both the same: they
ban them.
it's not up to us to decide whether there are good rule breakers and bad rule breakers.
fact is, both (cheater and account dealer) don't care about tracker rules.
but wait, why should i care? those actions don't affect my account, so let them do what they wanna do.
wrong! you a part of the tracker community and those people try to rape it. it is your god damn right to stand up against them and convince them that their actions are bad.
both steal from the tracker. the account dealer steals accounts that does not belong to him, the cheater steals ratio that doesn't belong to him.
the fact that we move (post) in an environment (forum) that allows one way of rule breaking and blames the other, doesn't mean that we have to shut our mouth and be quiet about it.
unlike most account dealers i love my trackers and i don't want to lose any of them.
that's why i decided to play
with them - not
against them.
everyone is free to repect tracker rules and everyone is free to break them.
in the long run there will only be those who enjoy their membership and those who need to trade for another account.
i'm not an anti-cheater, anti-trader, anti-collector... i'm simply against people who break the rules of my trackers.
feel free to choose your side everyone.
