The original 2-week temporary ban for user arafg, that was scheduled to be lifted on Dec 9, has been extended to a permanent ban. This is due to his actions in creating a duplicate account, again being rude in posts, and using an anonymous proxy -- all against forum policy.
I hope you will consider his actions when reading his posts, and to better understand his true motivations for posting.

I hope you guys can see how just one troll user (rwbil) can create drama by pretending to be multiple people. One of his duplicate accounts was around for a couple years, a failure on my part to catch him until today.
I look after Al's trading course website and put up an "Ask Al" extract from Al's trading room every Sunday. Already 88 such posts using either video or audio clips to answer trader questions at end of the day's trading. They have proved to be very popular as they cover a lot of diverse price action and trading topics. Anybody wanting a good insight into Al's methodology can watch/listen to/read these posts.
Certainly not. With the high number of unstable folk around these days, and it you live in the US, make that gun-toting unstable folk, I would not want anyone to know if I was making good money trading. Plenty of lottery winners around who have destroyed their lives disclosing their wealth, and being harassed wherever they go, worrying about their kids at school being bullied or even kidnapped, etc... Not worth the risk. Life is too valuable.
Privacy in this day and age is important. So how about you Susan? If you were making a very good living from trading, would you want others to know how much, and then worry about your own and families safety? I would hope not.

I listened to incomplete answers and noted how he moved things along so there would be no follow up, turned off the video and made myself a peanut butter rice cake, without thinking further about it.
