Default jjgold - where was your very first forum post?

Can you track it down for us?

I bet you were really nervous and shy and did not say much, something like

Hi guys, my name is jjgold I am new to the forum, just looking around hoping to meet some people. Might make a few posts but not really into the forum thing, maybe check it once every few months. I'm not really the type to check it every day or post from work or anything crazy like that. Can't believe some guys on here with 50,000 posts, don't they have anything better to do? Anyways just sayin hi. - jjgold

I bet it was just like that pal. What happened?

Here is one that goes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back and I knew stardom was coming my way

There was a report in the Costa Rican Online Record last week that there is a group called "The Butane Network" (wherever that name comes from I do not know) and it is a group of people that have profited from the fall of Camelot and Aces. They use multiple names and forum names and are from 4 different countries. They use some type of syntax manipulation to cause panic with the squares and some how benefit from this financially. They have us believing with careful wording that books are having problems and this in turn causes or appears to cause cash flow problems for the book. We all start to panic pull our money out, going on at the same time there are large transfers of money into this "Butane Network" with post up money. Then there are leaks on forums all over the world that the book is in trouble. Some squares get lucky and get paid others there money is lost and in the hands of the "Butane Network" This group has accounting experts, computer experts and for an odd reason a public relations guy. A very organized network that also has a piece in some tout service scams. They are also involved in steam plays, line manipulation and syndicate plays. Check the Best screen at around 6:50 PM at night and 7:20 PM and also 7:50 PM for some type of moves. Word is they are trying to knock out Grand Central, Pro 5, and Jazz (very hard to do). They are using a scheme called the "Terronova Pyramid" to try to accomplish this. It definately has Costa Rican influence and maybe coming from there or Dominican Republic sattellite office. Any info anyone might have post

Webber your posting style has changed a lot over the years

When did you lay off your paid posters and just post for yourself? Was one of them compactor?
