Why am I not allowed to talk about making money?

Your severely misunderstanding me. I'm a footbagger myself, this has nothing to do with footbaggers as a group of people, in fact the definitive quality about footbaggers is that we are a diverse group coming from different cultural, religious, ethnic and financial backgrounds.

You can't classify 'footbaggers' as a certain type of people...if I thought footbaggers were ignorant and desperate than I'd have to be a pretty naive person.

If you're here for a flame fest, I'm not going to respect your opinion. If you want to seriously debate this and try to understand where I'm coming from, I'll gladly converse with you a respectable mannor.

As far as 'sitting on one's computer ALL day' and 'making next to squat' - that is the exact contrast of what this business opportunity involves.

You spend 6 minutes per day and make 144% of your money. Like I said, if you want to have a serious discussion and leave the pointless flaming out of it, I will talk to you like a human being - I only request you do the same for me.

mattkain here's my weigh in on the linguistic debate

I think Jeremy was basically saying the same thing you are saying, but you elaborately expanded on it.

I think him saying 'The bus system here is retarded' is exactly like you saying "The pullback image's acquisition rate is slower than usual due to a retardation of the catheter"

In both examples you are describing something as being slow.

Also, you're trying to debate that the word slow is not an insult but all of your examples of 'slow' are being used in a positive connotation with complementory adjectives. I think that is called the Fallacy of Equivocation - but don't quote me on that =P

'slow' is in fact a very hurtful insult! When I was a child, I always took my time with everthing, and my siblings and my mom would call me slow! They nicknamed me 'slowpoke' - To this day I hate when they bring that up! I was thorough, not slow =P And to this day I don't just freak out over things, I'm easy going - but other more urgent people think it's being slow. I say take a chill pill!

So it's just from your perspective, and obviously - like you said - from the context of how you use the word slow.

Yeah slow is definately an insult.

And dude... you were being EXTREMELY pedantic. And repetitive. And this is about as dumb as that thread discussing whether the word 'sucks' is offensive to homosexuals or not. Political correctness taken too far

good idea Ken

dude, everyone is too serious. I was just trying to get a rise out of people, I'm really not a dickhead

Sorry

Yeah, I would have thought it was pretty obvious your post was a joke... don't worry, I appreciated it

darbsllim, in his most recent post, wrote:Stuff, I guess.

I assumed it was just going to be the same thing he's been saying over and over.

I didn't bother to read it.

Stop posting. No one is listening to you anymore.

Merry Christmas to you too, it's great to see the holidays are bringing the best out of people.

You were told specifically not to mention the names of specific ponzi schemes. Don't test my patience any more. -Ken

If anyone wants to try this out - I'll give you 4 footbags in return =) So think of it like that, you're not 'investing' you're only buying footbags, hehe

Hey, you're back!

Is this money making thing of yours just for people in NA or can Europeans lose all our money to your ponzi scheme as well?

Oh, but it's $1.600 Canadian, never mind then

I would do it if all you had to do was download something and sit on your ass. But you have to pay money. Lame. And I'll bet to really make the big bucks, you have to also make people give you money. Lame.

I'm not really into stealing peoples money to make myself better off. I'll just stick to playing footbag and smoking weed, thanks.

It's international. You can do this no matter where you're from.

skippy - I don't mind if you don't want to do it man. You can spend all your money on weed if you want.

What are you talking about give me money? I'm not taking anyones money dude. haha stop smoking so much your paranoia is even coming through your computer.

Very nice work Ken for deleting the other thread and could you please delete this thread too.

Having people posting about internet schemes and ponzi's seriously degrades the forum. Brad please post your schemes on another forum, we'd rather talk about footbag here.

PS. I'm already sick of deleting internet fraud spam from my email inbox and am pissed of that I'm seeing the same sort of stuff here on this forum.

Janis, you have no idea what you're talking about!

You're just jumping on the ponzi bandwagon.

Please explain to me how no names is a scam. I'm just a regular guy from canada who loves his footbag - and I found a freaking goldmine and everyone's jumping on my back about it.

Brad, I specifically stated when I reopened this thread that you cannot name or endorse specific ponzi schemes in this thread. Despite this, you still posted a picture of you with the name of your particular ponzi in it. You were warned, and still you persist in breaking the rules. This is not the first time you have been censured about trying to make money off of the modified community. I encourage everybody to click on Brad's profile, then "see all posts by this member." There are only 53 posts, most which are related to this current ponzi stuff, the rest are mostly about selling footbags on ebay, and some other fishing scam.

I've been more than patient, more than reasonable, and yet you persist with breaking the rules. Topic locked.
