im only speaking for myself here, and this isnt some sort of official org wide statement:
finance is super hot right now and is a central theme in my life, so i started a finance forum. some other dudes were having the similar feelings about it and we decided to pool resources and team up.
this shit between thomas/split/druff doesnt concern or interest me. i like split. ive always liked split. her opinions are her opinions. i feel like shes taking it personal when i dunk on team retard, which is odd and makes me a little sad but beyond that not really a concern of mine.
i absolutely get why druff isnt happy with some of the recent events but until my bank lets me pay off my mortgage with forum drama i really have no emotional investment in any of this.
this morning i got into two positions that i shouldnt have been in and it cost me some money. that concerns me a lot. if anyone wants to talk about that im open for business at my little finance blog lolsite.
but yeah miss me with this us vs them tribal bullshit because its not profitable.
uno bitches.

also the fed july 15 beige book just dropped and watching the market try to make sense of it while straddling spy positions is like jacking off to nuclear test footage.

Don't know what were his intentions, never met him. Interview was like 10 years ago, he said what he said and is worth north of $100M and Eazy is dead. But I get your point, but he stayed away from the feud for a reason. If the feud happened with social media back then, these guys would have been all multi-billionaires, but they all got paid a lot so they did alright. I mean every record Snoop made after 1995 was awful and he still has many millions, wild time for rap 25 years ago. Too bad the two best of all time murdered each other in 1996. They would be Hollywood kingmakers now.
btw theres a whole ass conversation to be had about the financial genius of dr dre.
that beats headphones play is literally studied in colleges.

The reason that there hasn't been any kind of productive conversation, and things have gotten worse, is because I don't believe I'm getting real sincerity here.
It would actually be a lot more refreshing if they said, "Druff, you suck, your forum sucks, you do a shitty job moderating, we have decided to move the entire party elsewhere."
Instead I repeatedly get, "We have nothing against you, we aren't trying to hurt PFA, we're just trying to have fun, etc"
Yet the actions I've been seeing contradict that.
If you cut through all the bullshit, there are two truths here:
1) There is no reason for a second PFA for a community as small as this one
2) If you create one despite #1, then you're probably trying to replace it
I understand that sonatine initially created the site for finance talk. I don't believe he had a devious plan in mind. I actually believe everything he wrote in his initial May PM to me.
I just think some things have changed since then, especially since certain third parties showed up there and decided to encourage perhaps making the site about finance AND a PFA replacement. Kind of how this site operates with the dual purpose of exposing poker scams AND continuing the old NWP community.
A lot of the attempts to copy what's going on here really makes me believe that the new site is now being viewed as a PFA replacement, not just a finance site which happens to have some membership crossover because it's run by sonatine.
If this isn't meant as a hostile act intending to take PFA's traffic, it's sure as hell coming off that way..
Additionally, it's off-putting that someone who very publicly quit PFA in April 2018 thinks there's absolutely nothing rude about attempting to start a competing forum, and then come back here for the sole purpose of promoting/spamming it.
Like, srsly.
