Then he later published something to his LinkedIn profile. I cannot see it, as I am not a member of any of those sites. His profile is here:

Brian Padgett | LinkedIn

I was made aware of the defamatory post he made by a friend who manages a large LinkedIn traders group who sent me an email.

A snippet out of LinkedIn here:



Could make sense to subscribe to LinkedIn for making some cross-checks on persons affiliated with companies
as most of these connected do have a profile there...

Any comments on the main reasons why people are banned here?

I handle the majority of banning. Users are banned if they do not follow forum rules and guidelines.

True.

Unfortunately, Molly, my six year old female yellow lab, is scheduled for emergency surgery in a few hours for a herniated or ruptured disc. She is in some pain. Also painful for me to watch, plus at my limit right now with just 13 days until I leave the country. Not to mention Amp's lawsuit against the site having to deal with.

Wish us both luck.

Mike

Very sorry to hear that about Molly, if I recall she's the one with occasional seizures as well.
I hope all goes well and wish a speedy recovery !
That being said, I wish you well too BM...it will all work out.

Another thread:


Recently raised the question about nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) being a scam due to some other websites filled with reports from banned nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) members (mostly vendors who were caught lying). So I wanted to share some numbers:



That report shows the number of "chargebacks" on nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) since the site opened June 2009. Basically it shows the number of times an Elite Membership was cancelled because the buyer disputed the charge.

It's something like 25 times over 6 years. And there are over 10,000 nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) Elite Members (out of 70,000 members total). That's 0.002%.

Before you try and do the math, keep in mind a lot of these people paid only $25, even more paid $50, far less have paid the current $100. There is another thread that discusses why the price goes up, but short version is to maintain quality of the site by keeping the majority of non-serious people away.

Last thing I want to say -- some people are jealous of nexusfi.com (formerly BMT)'s success, which causes them to respond negatively or say false things about nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) or me. Some of these people claim I only make money off the site and not trading. I've proven this to be false, I shared many months of real-time live trades, daily statements, broker statements, trading statistics and etc in my thread that clearly show I make far more trading than I do off nexusfi.com (formerly BMT). The facts speak for themselves.

As of today, there are 505k posts on the site.

79% of these posts are contributed by Elite Members.
14% are from Market Wizards (which are Elite Members, but I broke this out separately).
7% of these posts are contributed by non-Elite Members.

It is important to note that this is determined by whether they are Elite right now. They could have been non-Elite at time of post, then later became Elite. If so, they are included in the Elite group number. Same for Market Wizard, it's as of right now.

I include my posts and @sam028's in with Elite.

So for all the post content you see on the site, 93% of it is courtesy Elite Members. Only 7% is non-Elite Members.

At Mike's request, cross posted from the other thread:

"And to compare that to ... what % of members are Elite? Do I recall you saying once before it was about 6,000 ie about 9% of members.

So, .... 9% of members contributed collectively 93% of the posts.

Sound about right???"
