I'm 'new' but I've been reading ZH since shortly after its inception. I'm sure the people who have been booted are still around under different names.

I was going to post under "Band Camp", but maybe next time. I think the ABC MEDIA part of ZEROHEDGE has taken over the comments, and maybe some of the content too.

I;m posting just to see if it says new next to my name also.  I think this is likely the 5th time I have ever posted.  I'm a wimp I guess....

Weird.  So after I post all the other comments are marked as read, even though I have not read them and my own comment says new.

 

I forgot the new referred to unread.....  Duh

I left this message for you elsewhere so that you can check it out for yourself:

Pssst, from Tyler in a post about the most popular posts in 2015:

"We thank all of our readers for making this website - which has never seen one dollar of outside funding and has never spent one dollar on marketing - a small (or not so small) part of your daily routine!"

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-12-31/2015-greatest-hits-presenting-m...

from Tyler on the same post:

ABC Media has nothing to do with American Broadcasting Corporation. Also read in the post where it says that Zero Hedge has never received a dollar of outside funding.

Be good. We know him when we see him. Let him be, or create an account in order to kill it.

Now Travis777 was epic. You don't need to agree with him to admire his show.

Nope, you're not. According to my user page I'm at 5 years 46 weeks on this one. I know there's a few here that beat this by a decent margin, I stayed in lurk mode for a while after ZH moved from the blog site to its own domain so that lost me a few months.

Shit, it took me two years to catch up, and/or stop laughing sometimes. I think I have been on almost 5 years.

The information on this site, once screened, has been invaluable for me. Thank you very much.

5 years + myself.  Terrified to post at first.  Spent a year at least just reading before I dared.  Back then it was a real fistfight on most subjects.  I sort of miss it.  But, really, I think most people who are here now - even new - have already gotten over the initial hurdle of disbelief/shock.  More shock for me... I always harbored a deep cognative dissonance for the world I was told to believe.  It just smelled like bullshit from the get-go - but no one seemed to want to say anything.  ZH broke that silence pretty squarely.

Lots of good people here.

I don't remember her name but there was a woman a while back who posted nudes of herself. She got talked to a great deal before she was banned. I think she came back as at least one, or maybe 2 other reincarnations. 

Edit: I think she knew some posters' real identities (she would offer to meet them) and she attempted to out them with their family/employers and that was why she actally got banned (I may be making your point for you!).

The nudes would be her screen pic (more than once)! But also links to private pics too. She even posted nudes of her daughter, her and her daughter. TMI. I wondered if she was a troll, but then others were very pissed about her trying to out them, She would tease them here on line about outing them. Said she was wealthy, bored, divorced, NOT very savvy about economics or markets at all (not that I am, but she was quite lost, or maybe played lost to get men to talk to her).

I should back track, she would come on line and say that Tyler had warned her about this, told her not to do that, etc. Maybe they never did and she was quite fictional! But other posters worried about her outing them, unless she was all of them too...

I know who you're talking about... your description is correct, but she wasn't divorced, and she had given out enough information that she could be identified if you were marginally clever with google. She was trolling a bit, but from what I could tell she used her "real" identity to do so. Definitely one of the odd ones.

And then, lest we forget... Marla got banned, too.

Wow! Hope she trolls us from time to time. There is no way to prevent it.

She was part of the success of this place, no doubt. Man those were the days.

Great DJ.

I just edited a whole bunch in the interests of confidentiality. If you knew, you knew. Got walked into a few fun things back in the day.

Thanks, that took me back.

Oh the power of shaming! Is this the key to female empowerment? Does seem rather flimsy in reality.

What I notice is when things start looking crashy, the oldtimers will show themselves. Many of us lurk, but don't post for a while, then come out when things start to get really weird. 

Things are weird enough to start seeing real old timers around.

"What I notice is when things start looking crashy, the oldtimers will show themselves."

Sometimes you just gotta take a break from all of the doom.  Then, when they slip and let on about the real condition of the economy in the MSM, you know where to come for a little dose of reality.

Of course, you used to be able to get insight from real insiders - back then.  Sure miss Orly, Cheeky-Bastard, Robot Trader and such.  Why is it that we never see Marla (in her cave, smoking) or hear from her any more?  Oh, and what was that Canadian retirement account investor so enamored with Chinese Solars?  He was a lot of fun too!

 

Just for Grits and Shins - found this new media darling broadcasting from one of our local stations - Taylor Durden!

Orly- miss her too, she kept it classy, don't know about her.

Cheeky Bastard- heard he was ill, had cancer. Have read speculation he passed, do not know if it is true.

Robot Trader- Heard RT was banned/ alternate story left butt hurt from the mocking. Thought we were all tards. Our projections of doom did not pan out, he probably did well. 

Marla- Seek above says she was banned. I thought she had left of her own accord. I seem to remember them making a big announcement that she would be moving on and not be around any more. My memory says it was tense but amicable.

Canadian retirement account investor so enamored with Chinese Solars?  He left in a big butt hurt huff. Laughing stock of the website.

Miles Kendig I met, he was a sweetie, pretty intense. He showed me around the joint in ways I did not know existed. 

Project Mayhem fell off the face of earth, abandoned his column, I knew him from other websites, everyone was worried about him. Assumed he passed. The joke was his garage may have blown up because of all the gas he stored as a prepper. That or the black helicopters came for him.

Taylor Durden probably gets some interesting grief ;-) I'd work it if I was her.

$325 for two years, (EVERY TWO YEARS), here in Kalifornia. Assuming you can show "good cause" and "good moral character".

I would think that if you cannot open carry (California stupidly banned it), and you cannot carry concealed without paying, that's infringement.

full day training, several hundred $, pages of forms, notarized, taken to local PD, months to wait.....

 

just to have the CHANCE to practice the RIGHT to own a gun. 

 

oh, and Ammo requires a separate license, too.

Huh? License for ammo? Whut? You mean to carry a loaded concealed, not just ammo ownership, right?

I would think the words "Shall not be infringed" would be very clear on that matter. Additional tax on a guaranteed right is infringement.

If I recall correctly - I'm not in the mood to look it up - poll taxes (essentially charging people to vote) were declared illegal on just such grounds.

And while they were at it, they redefined "infringe" to mean "put a fringe on something."

Looks kind of like the Ruger Mini 14 I just sent back.  Thought they had everything sorted out, NOPE can't hold center!  Got a Henry rifle instead.

Henry is an excellent choice.  I got 3 of them.

The frontier is my favorite .22.  I put a Marbel Arms Tang sight on it and a new Globe front sight.  Looks like its right out of 1890s.  Accurate too.

Yes, not sure they're built quite as well as a pre-64 Winchester but they're still very good by any measure.  Mine is a .44 Mag "Big Boy" (kinda gay name) but shoots good.  What's funny is I seem to have more luck with $300 Savage rifles than $1000 "quality" competitors these days.
