"This morning, as soon as dryheaves and ehofner signed in, my "goodbye" post (page 14) went from ZERO TD to 9 TD. Along with anyone's post who were supporting our fight. All within 10 minutes of them being online. Ridiculous. No conclusive proof, and I'm sure there are others, but the cumulative evidence over the weeks is compelling. "
dryheavesdaily : Comments Watchguard 1,178
ehofner : Comments Watchguard 82
Haha get'em, report and thumbs down all of their posts. Everyone left remove them from friends, this means you too LBX make it happen. PI this is a short list, more names please.
Sincerely,
High Warlord Integral

CautiousInvestor is another culprit with 406 snitches
ReplyDeleteAAAAmerican has 127
ReplyDeleteThere are several posters that have names you simply can't access because of a BUG in MW. For instance, lookup:
ReplyDelete"U.S.S.A. of China"
Click on his username on one of his posts on this page
I have no idea about this particular poster. I'm just using him/her as an example, and he is probably just a regular poster. But for anyone trying to hide their account from other users, or their points (Watchguard) and archived posts, this would be ideal. They know people can't click on them, because the same thing happens to them when they click their own avatar.
On the link above, you have to go to page 15. Sorry for the confusion.
ReplyDeleteI've even seen people with names like:
ReplyDelete"marketwatch.community/userxxx"
Seriously. I clicked on name like this and it went to the MW top stories. That person obviously knew what they were doing, and did it intentionally.
Check this cached article and look for user:
ReplyDelete"cut the emotion for once"
They eventually removed his comments because if you look at the archived article, it is gone. Anyway, you can't look him up. There are many users like this.
Here is the cached article
You can add Keep-It-Real at 166.
ReplyDeleteYou can't look him up either, because of the MW bug. To find him, google:
"Keep-It-Real" Marketwatch
Pozitive has 232.
ReplyDeleteIf everyone still on MW simply checked their friends' accounts, you could cover a lot more ground.
I think that MW only recently (in the last 6-8 months) started this Watchguard ("report abuse") system. So these people have acquired all these points (1 point = 1 report) in a very short period of time.
ReplyDeleteIntegral, don't know if you know this but PresidentObama left MW for good.
ReplyDeleteGone for good
You probably already knew this ...
Don't forget to give Jennie honorable mention on the list at 184 (last time I looked before she deleted her account).

Is anyone seeing a pattern here? I'm just following the numbers.
.
This one requires extra special mention.
ReplyDeletebobg 73 reports, and only has 28 comments (and 535 points)!!!!!!!!!!!!! For every comment he has made, he has reported 2.5 user comments. Now that is what I call contributions to the community. LMAO!
Ok this is another Jennie in the making, who had like 184 points on the back of a "SOLID" 1000 points and very very few posts (can't remember the number exactly).
.
Oh, another special mention.
ReplyDeleteArmistral has 76 reports, and only 80 comments (1460 points). About one report for every comment. Another stellar contributor. I guess anyone qualifies as a moderator.
>> INTEGRAL ALERT <<
ReplyDeleteYou need to COPY this entire web page and put it as a separate thread on here. Take a look at all the contributors. Make sure you get both pages.
Here is the link for above. Sorry about that.
ReplyDeleteROTFLMAO!
ReplyDeleteQuote from dryheaves from that thread link:
"I can foresee many threads with a majority of messages that say does not conform to marketwatch guidelines."
Gee, I wonder why he could foresee such things?
.
Integral, you have my vote to put that quote permanently in the "gadgets" column of the blog. It is just too damn funny.

"Only on MW do facts get thumbs'd down. But then I'm sure I'll get the reply that the WHO is just a liberal mouthpiece dreamed up by and run by liberals blah blah blah... this site is ridiculous. It ranks somewhere between iheartelrushbo.com and kkk.com for intelligent discussion."
Yet another one trying to throw the trail off.
