Long, long story short, but I didn’t even get banned from SS. I got my account(s) permanently suspended by reddit. (side note, reddit does not like if you overwrite and delete your account history every evening, just an fyi) Jsmar was the last decent SS mod. What happened to Half_dane, btw? Disappeared one day and that was it? He was probably a Rensole alt as best as I can figure.

There’s probably nobody here that remembers who I was over my main/alt accounts, but I kept track and still keep track of users through RES and take notes. Every day, for years. I’m not going to go so far as to say ALL of the mods are plants at this point, but it’s pretty close. SS sub is mostly spam accounts/bots/planted accounts/15-year-olds at this point. I have them all tagged and update my records when they do spam/bot things. There’s almost no posters/commenters at this point that I haven’t tagged, and I was suspended the day before thanksgiving last year. TL;DR There’s not a lot of new users that comment in SS over the last year.

At any rate, hello. Nice to have a voice again.

I have some other devices I still downvote and report that stupid fucking starfish with every morning. The running 7.41 guy, and the dtcc comment guy. Then after market close I hit the sideways trading guy and the fucking “tomorrow” spammer.

None of those have anything to do with GME, all violate rule 2, and the mods certainly don’t care to enforce the sub rules unless it hurts their personal feelers.

And as a final “hello” because this is a DRS GME sub. All my shit is DRSd, and I still don’t believe it will actually do anything even if 200% of the outstanding shares are locked up in CS. There’s bigger problems in the system and they’re not gonna let their profit center collapse just because some retail folks bought up all the shares on paper. But they might, so I’m watching on the sidelines with the rest of you.

    Welcome! Happy to have you here.

    I miss Jsmar too. He was last seen in the meltdown sub showing disappointment that the mods were defending their latest addition who drew hentai of canonically underage characters.

    Half Dane is still on haitus I think. Not sure if they’re going to come back from it or not at this point. Things definitely relaxed for a bit after they went. Didn’t last though unfortunately.

    I’d be very curious to see how you’ve labelled us as well as others in this database! Could be a good learning moment for how we come across within the community. Is it something you’ve considered sharing, or would it give the game away to bad actors?

      I have tags on most of the users here that I recognize their names from ss. Mostly just little things like “daily chat poster” or “Plane tracker guy”

      Lots of tags with simply “moron” I keep tabs on a lot of people who jump from stock to stock to push sentiment. LOTS of people spam SS/AMC/BBBY subs

      Some tags that I make note of when someone accidentally reveals a little too much about themselves.

      I’ll see if I can get the data out of RES one of these days. It’s more for my own personal reference though rather than any attempt at scientific data or reasoning.

        Haha, I wonder how often you have to bust out the “moron” tag XD

        Honestly it’s a good idea, it’s so hard to keep track of the hundreds of thousands of usernames! I’m terrible at remembering if I’ve spoken to someone before or not.

      I have you at 5 downvotes. You probably said some stupid shit early on. I actually don’t have you tagged on RES. In my informal record keeping you’re basically a decent person lol

        Haha there’s a good chance. Before I got into the broker guides I didn’t have much value to add to conversations. Even after I got into them I’m sure ii has some moments!
