Hi guys/girls,
I'm here. Been lurking and trying to see if the admins will unban my old account but it looks like they are refusing. I PM'd proof to multiple admins (screenshots of PMs from badbaseball) of him admitting to deliberately trolling /r/stocks "because it's fun" and also admitting to using multiple user accounts while complaining to me about the very thing that he lied to the admins about which got me banned (that someone is "targeting him" and downvoting all his posts), and him apologizing to me for trolling, in an attempt to get them to see the truth but I guess they believe his lies. I'm not going to get into a debate over what's true/not true because I just don't have the time or really care what he does anymore but I will say to those of you who trust me that I only ever downvoted posts that I believed were providing faulty information based on my 10+ years of trading experience, posts that I felt could cost people money if they followed the advice or posts that I knew were straight up lies (for example him saying that he shorted this or that when I know the broker he uses and know for a fact that they didn't have shares to borrow because I have accounts with the same broker). It's not my fault if that was basically every post he made. As we can see in other threads, even without me here his posts are still getting downvoted so it clearly is not just me and I do not have multiple accounts, never did and never will (well, except now since I am forced to, lol). Anyway I believe that most people know who to trust at this point so I will leave it at that, and since apparently we are not allowed to upvote/downvote to ensure that quality content is posted here without getting banned, I will no longer upvote or downvote anything.
It really sucks that I've lost multiple years of work on my real account, building it up in terms of credibility, doing AMAs and building tons of karma by posting quality content all because of a big lie (or maybe simple misbelief/misunderstanding) by one user who showed up here just a few months ago, but I did it once and I will do it again so whatever. Of course since I just created this new account and am admitting that it's me there's a chance this account will also be banned, so I'm gonna tell everyone now that if they want to continue to follow my watchlists/trading ideas they can do so at my website at www(dot)greenbartrading(dot)com(slash)blog. You can also follow me on Twitter at www(dot)twitter(dot)com(slash)ckz8780 and I'd encourage you to do that as I post my watchlists there every night and also provide updates/trading ideas during the day while the market is open. Additionally I'm going to make this account a moderator over at my other subreddit /r/1krobinhoodproject so I can keep that alive. I tried to post my updates from the last couple days from my greenbartrading account but apparently I am shadowbanned or something and it's Reddit-wide so I can't update it from that account anymore. I will try to do it from this one.
In the future I may create my own subreddit if there continues to be animosity in this one, but honestly if this is going to become a problem I will probably just stop using Reddit. I'm a successful trader and have a business to run so I don't have time for these petty antics. I posted here for free to help grow my business and also to help newer traders get a handle on what it's like to do this as a full time job and I've been here for multiple years doing the same thing and have never had this kind of a problem. I wish the admins would do what's right: unban my real account and eliminate the real problem, but if they won't then there's nothing I can do about it and I'm not going to lose sleep over it. At the end of the day I make my money from trading, not posting watchlists on Reddit so if I'm driven away from Reddit by these shenanigans then oh well; it's not the end of the world.
Anyway bottom line is I am hoping that this account can stay active and all this BS can just end. If somehow my other account gets unbanned then I will start using that one again but I think it's gone for good. Since I'm not sure if I can respond to PMs on it, any additional questions you guys have about my trading style, hiring me as a mentor, or whatever can be emailed to info(at)greenbartrading(dot)com, posted as a comment on my blog or even tweeted at me on Twitter, in case this account gets banned and I'm forced out of Reddit for good or something.
One last thing: Thank you to Cy (/u/bigbear0083) and Gil (/u/StockJock-e) for trying to help get my original account unbanned. It means a lot to have two long-time moderators from this sub back up the legitimacy of my content and try to assist. If one of you guys wouldn't mind locking this post and removing any responses that come in before you get to it I'd appreciate it just to keep the drama out. I just wanted to give everyone the info on how to keep following me since I know that I have a pretty big following here on Reddit and I hate to just disappear and leave y'all hanging! Moving forward I'll just block badbaseball as I had done at least a month ago and ignore his posts in an attempt to try to alleviate this problem. It's up to you guys to decide who to trust.
Anyway, back to trading! I'll jump over and update /r/1krobinhoodproject in a bit!
Thanks, and sorry again for all the drama. Let's all be friends, k?
Chris
