The Story of Tommy
A couple of days ago Poster Tommy had a little altercation with Poster RTV in a discussion under one of Tommy’s Posts (SCO)
The comment to RTV was abusive .EagleSeagle ( an Editor ) at this site commented to Tommy that his rude remarks were innapropriate. The post remained up and next day when Eagle went to check it to see if there was any fallout…he noticed that his own comment was completely altered…Still under his byline ..his comment now read in the discussion as follows:

Hi Tommy
I don’t know my ass from a hole in the ground.
Could you explain that pattern to me please?

Now I read this and thought…geez that’s so unlike our Eagle…I wonder what made him upset with RTV who clearly was wanting to understand Tommys Chart
Eagle later deleted this post as he was suspicious Tommy had altered his and RTVs comments .
I didn’t believe this was possible because Authors cannot edit anybody’s posts except their own, while Editors can.
Fast Forward to another Post made by Tommy yesterday (GDX) …I wanted to see if Tommy would perhaps repeat this behavior . So I called him out on his post and told him it was bunk. (I actually think it was nonsense but that’s beside the point.)
The thread went on all day today with several other posters chiming in that I was too harsh with poor Tommy and my “attack” on his work was unwarranted.
Anyhow finally tonight I posted a comment to Argentaurus on that thread regarding Tommys attitude:
…………………………………………………………………
“See the interaction below to see why I am not impressed with this guy.
Karl asks him to please clarify his posts. Tommy responds with ridicule of Karl’s posting style.
I agree with Karl . These charts are difficult to read the indicators are not named nor explained and the message is always past tense.
He never makes a bad trade ..in hindsight.
Kindergarden Report Card..” Does not play well with others.”

This comment was promptly changed ( under my byline still) to read:
“Tommy is a good poster and I am an idiot.”
So that’s the Story of Tommy.
He is now an ex poster…I am sure some of you will miss his charts . Unfortunately messing with other peoples comments like this is a capitol offense. And whats worse is it took all day to figure out how he as an author was able to do it.
I hate this sh!t

Bloody hell – intrigue and espionage in the tent. What have I walked into ? I doubt I’d ever post anything worth altering though lol.
Fully
Thank you for keeping the site at a level that provides valuable information
Even good people have bad days. But agreeing changing someone else’s work isn’t just a bad day it’s unethical
To be honest I never understood tommys work
Most of what’s posted here by so many with much to agree is greatly appreciated by me
Regards
Haha, for the record he did not change my post!! Anyway that was said tongue I cheek I’m done with the arguing I just wanna focus on making money.
Yes. Lets make money And thanks for your work as well. Appreciated
Great detective work, Fully. Thanks for the work you do to keep this forum on the straight and narrow.
How was he even able to alter someone’s post? I hope that bug has been fixed fully?
Me too !
Audept is Working on it !
I always wondered if any authors had abused the edit button by the time stamp. Walk the plank.
Ty sir fully for the first rate forum and for all those that contribute here and are so generous with there time!!
Thank you, Fully and Audept.
I agree fully with Fully’s last comment – I couldn’t get by without all your good work – even though I am a rank amateur I appreciate
the “pro’s” that post here – thanks
thanks fully i seem to have misread this guy.
Wow, lots of drama! I hope eagle still not mad at me for ‘that RIC guy taking a dump comment.. I better be careful. 🙂
Fully, you have a successful, quirky and great web site. It’s all good.
