Goodbye guys. I won't be posting anymore. This forum is so slanted it's not even funny anymore. If you're a fluff pumper you can get away with murder, but try to interject a little reality into a thread and you get accused of bashing. It's funny really - I think someone said it earlier, the yaysayers do more bashing than they accuse the nays of doing - only their posts don't get deleted and they don't get banned. I'm not going to name call or bash any particular poster on my way out but some posters have certainly found refuge here at RC where there is no accountability for posting BS. All you have to do is say that someone else told you and you are off the hook. You can pretty much make up anything you want. Well, I've had enough - it's a losing battle for the realists so I AM OUT. Good luck guys.

Good bye and I hope you join us in the Caymans so we can give you a good natured ribbing. I wish you love, health, wealth and joy!

Personally I think the rumors are great, especially from people that actually have contacts in Iraq. And even more so when there are more than one person that are hearing the same things from their contacts as well.

But, most importantly, I am here to learn from others about this investment that I found myself involved in. I really enjoy reading the articles each day, and lately I must say that the articles just keep getting better and better!

I don't mind reading someones point of view that doesn't believe what they are reading is true, but it would be nice if they would back up their views with another article or reason why it can't or won't work that way.

I know their are a lot of greatful people here on RC and I can see which ones are actually here to learn and help put the pieces together by just looking at the amount of times they have thanked others for posts that they have made or articles that they have brought to the forums attention.

Lately there have been quit a few that only use the "thanks" button when someone is bashing someone or making a joke about someone and I wonder if they are even reading all the great posts that really matter at all, kind of sad really.

The latest romur is that the RV amount has already been set by the big boys in Iraq, it was never said that the RV had already taken place, so when they believe that the time is right they know exactly the amount they are going to raise the dinar to and then they will let the world know that it has been done.

Does anyone know of an article that says this is simply not true? I haven't seen one yet and most likely won't, but if you can find one then please post it in the "news" section and I will be glad to hit the "thanks" button for your efforts.

i am quire sure everyone is searching for news of an RV and a rate! I know I am!

[ozizoz]

Its sad . . .round and round this goes, which forum is next no one knows . . .

I get sad entertainment watching the same issues be brought up by the same people one forum after another.

Are we all forgetting we are in this investment together, and if you dont want this to pan out, I strongly urge you to get rid of your dinar in whatever fashion you see fit and have a happy and healthy life.

I wish some of the adults here would act more like some of the awesome young investors for a change!!!
