i dont see anything wrong with someone that has like 7k posts from this forum asking this forum if they want to buy some action.

There is nothing wrong with it, except that it's been established as a rule on 2+2 that no staking requests are allowed.

i'm aware of it; i still dont see the reason for hostility for this post/or a reason to lock/delete it. Noah asking isn't the same as JohnDoe123 asking for us to send him to Monte Carlo.

It's actually worse than a newbie doing it as seeing a 7k poster (who presumably knows the rules) make that type of request leads newbies to think it's ok to make those kind of requests.

plz post pics of yourself in this thread so we can determine whether or not your a giant tellbox.

All --

Come on, guys. Noah's one of our best strategy posters and a good kid. He happened not to know a rule. Let's all take a deep breath here.

you are right ray, i did not mean to be mean. selling 1% of yourself for $180 is actually brilliant. just sell 100% of yourself and enjoy your nice vacation in monte carlo

Again, it's a 13K event. Noah's good. Do you have any idea how standard (at least approximately) $180/1% would be?

Rules like this need to be uniformly applied in order to be effective. Things like someone's post-count shouldn't matter at all, and, actually, anyone who's been around long enough to have lots of posts should have enough friends/contacts to get staked away from these boards (PM, IM, etc).

I have no problem with Noah's stake request, and don't really care about the rule too much either way (actually, I think it's good and keeps things more orderly and less BBV-ish), but whatever, rule is a rule, that's why people bugged. Also, it is probably ridiculous to expect that high of a premium for a one-off stake request, so I think people reacted badly to that.

he obviously should jump off a very large rooftop right now because he will be hunted down for the crime he has committed.

If I were to attempt to sell piece of myself in this one event, I doubt I would try to sell my action at more than 1-1. Maybe I'd ask for $140-150 for each percent (where face value is $130), but I doubt more.

Re: Selling Pieces of Myself for Monte Carlo
 

I think $140 is incredibly low for anyone expecting to have +ROI and you'd really just be screwing yourself at that #

Re: Selling Pieces of Myself for Monte Carlo
 

Shaniac, it would be incredibly silly for you to ever sell $130/1% face shares for $140/1%
