Go for it. Read every post I've ever written. Of course, if you use anything short of "call the police now!" as a standard for being positive, you'll be skewing the odds. Then again, you once went after me for suggesting people file a complaint with the UK authorities, so I guess I must have been endorsing that broker by suggesting going through legal channels instead of visiting their offices and personally attacking them. So, if you are going to post statistics, each of your claimed "positive" and "negative" posts will need to name the broker, state why you feel it's a scam broker or not (since you seem to have little knowledge of the FPA's system of declaring a broker to be scam), a quote of what I said, and a link back to the original post here in the FPA's forums (both so everyone can see if the statement was truly positive or negative and so that people can verify if the quote is accurate and in context). I'd personally be fascinated to see what you come up with.
I do wonder if you are mentally capable of determining positive vs. negative posts. From what I can tell in this thread, you wanted me to wholeheartedly endorse a chargeback with zero information on whether such a complaint was justified legally or ethically. This desire seems based solely on your personal dislike of the broker without regard to any of the facts of what did or did not happen. My statement in post #3 above would be considered neutral by any rational observer.
Even on some of the worst brokers out there (where the owners are facing criminal charges), I often try to ask a few questions first to gain a full understanding of the situation, unlike some people who prefer to open fire before confirming the proper target.
I'll also make you a deal. If you can find one post anywhere inside the FPA where I wholeheartedly endorse traders opening accounts with any one broker (as opposed to saying "you may consider testing them with a small amount of money"), I'll happily pay you $1000. (Note: I do believe once or twice I've sarcastically told someone to go open an account at a known scam - anyone with any shred of intelligence will be able to tell that was not a real endorsement). If you can find me posting an IB link to a broker anywhere inside the FPA (other than quoting someone else who may have used an IB link - typically to show they have been using an IB link), I'll pay you $5000. I don't have any IB links inside or outside the FPA, but I know of one broker employee who misused my name on another forum, so I'm not going to pay because of something some scumbag said while impersonating me elsewhere. Obviously, I'm most well know here, so if I wanted to make money this way, I'd do the endorsements here if I ever was going to do them.
Will 10 days be sufficient for you to prove your theory how evil I am or else to give me a well deserved apology for acting like a spoiled child when the world doesn't bend to his will? Please let me know. Otherwise, if I've seen no proper response in 10 days, I'll have to assume your research proved me innocent, but you were too embarrassed by your shameful behavior to step forward and admit it.
