Are you kidding me? It was rampant.... a lot of trashing Mexicans too.
Are you sure that wasn't specifically illegal immigrants who happen to be Mexican? There's a huge difference, you know. One is racist and one is strictly political.
Nada...there were a quite few people that anytime anyone said something they didn't like...they would tell them to choke on a **** or suck a **** kinda like a bunch of potty mouth kindergarteners.
So... their reason for closing off the POD to people wasn't so important that it wasn't closed fully. Not really "litigation" issues then... or a boss-boss (investor) got involved.
So much for "closed because someone took it into the real world" But if you pay-to-post you can go there? Meh.
That's like saying "If you type c*nt you get banned... but if you pay $25 you can type c*nt is this forum thread" - hypocrites.
Because they were told to me in confidence. Setting the record straight in vague terms does not betray that confidence; naming the member who reported the POD to IB would.
