Now ainsoph would like us to believe she has friends in high
places and is a big player on the social scene.
That is why at 1.30 am this morning she was pasting rubbish
all over this site.
Very sad indeed.

NICE ONE !

Ainsoph

You are sad and pathetic. Why would anyone know why an e-mail addressed TO them would be posted on a BB? Even if it was posted here. You have tried to make a big issue of it but there is simply nothing to discuss, may be if it was an e-mail from them but even then, but then what the sender/recipient does with their mail is their affair.

Don't you have better things to do at one o'clock in the morning other rthan revel in your conspiracy theories and persecution complex?

LOL!

I've had enough of all this from everyone.

I believe that posting with multiple alias' is wrong and almost bordering on illegal (but I'm no lawyer).

As a minimum it is irresponsible and should be stopped. Multiple alias' create a false representation of shares and maybe is deception (again I'm no lawyer).

I am happy to put my name to any list which stops this.

Before you bark Ainsoph, this is not aimed at you specifically - just the fact that it may or may not happen. Maybe you could add your name as a supporter?

Remember the outbreak of impersonations? One of the techniques was to put an extra space in the name. It only worked with names of more than one word. ADVFN have subsequently changed their software to make this impossible. You can see the extra space by clicking on View, Source in the Explorer toolbar at the top of the screen.

Now I do not know for certain who created the second of these threads, but I have about a 99% belief it was Ashley. He was certainly posting into the small hours on that particular weekend. "Boo Hoo" is a phrase he has used before. It is only circumstantial, I admit.

Genuine


Impersonation


And then there was "Aunt Agony" on the Is CER in Trouble thread, who seemed very concerned to argue Ashley's case.

I have filtered Ashley himself. He is a hard habit to break in some ways, but one must try, I think.

[torturedsoul] 19/7/2002 23:54

add me to the list please, not the ainsoph alias list, the other one ;-)

Your posting style is very similar to Ainsoph and it is well known that he uses multiple aliases.

Could you direct me to some of your other posts which contain intelligent comment and obviously if they are intelligent in nature then you simply cannot be Ainsoph and will be removed with an apology

[david2000] 19/7/2002 23:41

Has anyone asked ADVFN if they can collate a list, fairly easily of multiple posters from there database. And if so is there anything legally to stop them having a reference section for all to view? Cant see anything dodgy about publishing blocks of nicknames that are linked. No other details are required.

[donpablo] 19/7/2002 23:35

I'd like to know what I've done to wind goodfella up so much as to make it onto his hitlist though!

[2deano] 19/7/2002 23:32

OK donpablo, I have removed you from the header as the last thing I want is for innocent people to be associated as an alias of ainsoph.

I also agree re: advfn moderation and stopping this practice by identifying them at source, as Ashley suggested earlier.

I am going to try a different approach, but rest assured I won't stop until something is done about this. It just shouldn't be allowed and the power of advfn community ( with a list of people voicing their concern ) will help to put an end to it once and for all.

Best Regards.

2Deano
I don't see what difference it makes whether 2 or 200 people think anyone is operating under aliases. It surely ain't difficult for advfn to stop anyone posting under aliases and then chuck them out. The fact however, that you with some confidence asserted that I was one of ainsoph's aliases and then as soon as I argued my case d-d agreed I wasn't - well, it hardly makes you look like a particularly astute judge, does it?

[david2000] 19/7/2002 23:23

day dreamer, why have you to be wary of me. I have asked you 2 investment related opinions on 2 stocks this week. You have not answered them. I suggest people should be wary of your motives. 2 Deano has removed my name from the introduction of the thread after we discussed it. He graciously appologied and we agreed on no hard feelings. His motives are honourable and as I said to him, in principle I agree with what is trying to be done here, as far as multiple postings. But can you please stop using me as an example, just because I have my own opinions. Which sometimes agree or dis agree with ainsoph. Also where can you direct me to where you give sensible views of stocks you hold, or trade. All I ever see is you mooching around with a bee in your bonnet about other posters. When will we get an answer to investment related questions. Which is why were all supposed to be here in the first place.

[2deano] 19/7/2002 23:23

Incidentally who would be willing to verify that they think ainsoph is operating under multiple aliases. It would be interesting to have a long list of usernames with which to approach advfn moderators. If we had, say, a list of 50 or so people that thought he was using aliases, then there would be some 'circumstantial evidence' and resulting weight with which to get advfn to look further into how this individual is operating?

Good idea? bad idea? indifferent?

At least it would be a start. I'm fed up with this individual having free reign on advfn fbb operating under, in my opinion, many different aliases and ramping small cap stocks.

Thoughts?

[day_dreamer] 19/7/2002 23:00

Right I'm out for the rest of the afternoon !!!

Wonder if ainsoph will email me by then !!!

[2deano] 19/7/2002 22:34

Yes it does appear that way re: moderation, palawrence.

Thanks for your post. I know the one you are talking about re: KDC.

If this thread helps out even one investor and makes them aware of ainsoph's exploits, then it's worthwhile.

You never know, something may even end up being done about it all. Stranger things have happened at sea.

Cheers.
