He's been gone since December. I think it was Braverman (I think) that said he was moving. I don't know how long that can take but who knows haha.
You mean you haven't heard the word? I was almost sure everyone has heard the word...
He's working the program at Marcus Bachmann's clinic. Should "come out" good as new.
your guess as good as mine...he said a few weeks ago he'd be back soon, but i guess he's been busy since the move.
I think we have a huge opportunity here to make this one of the best conspiracy theory threads in WSO history. SB for the most outlandish.
Nominating myself for the new NSFW cast since I have a ton of dick jokes I'm just waiting to use.
Might take you up on that if you're serious.
Midas is, in actuality, Marianne Gingrich. Clearly busy with more important engagements as of late.
Midas joined the OWS
WSO sleeper agent.

Where has MMM gone? Hasnt posted any rant yet and no new NSFW episode. EB you prolly know more about him than anyone else, is he on a hiatus? Hope he isn't blacked out in some salon in Mexico.
He is just really busy right now. Dude is swamped. Once things settle down he will return.
Midas will be back, he just relocated and is setting things up. All is well though, no worries.
He's out extracting his revenge on his enemies.
Fuck you Ratina. MMM is a real mofo who preaches real shit. You may not agree with what he says, but he's got the nuts to be blunt.
Fuck you too. Real shit? Most of his crap is completely fabricated. And my post got deleted by mods.
Rat remember why everyone hated you before and you wanted to wash yourself of that stigma ?
I know where he issss
I tried that but still get shit so I embraced it.
MMM is alive and well and being a fuck like usual.
zucotti park bro
seeing as i saw what he did with our waitress when we went to get lunch, yes
As someone who knows MMM and has met him on a couple occasions, yes, I would say his stories are very true.
Regardless, you wonder why people give you shit. This was simply a post where people were asking where a regular user has been and you roll in with the insults. How about you relax a little and knock it off with the hate fest.
No, thank you.
Does anyone know what his background is? He talks with a lot of "authority" on a variety of topics on here, but all we know is that he's some dude in a mask.
To add, anyone that bought into his "man week" stories without a hint of skepticism is either dumb or lying. Not to mention, anyone that would respect someone who did what he claims to have done is an asshole.
Thank you for your opinion. It was greatly valued.
Completely agree. Happy holidays.
Why is everyone on MMM's junk? Besides his stupid blog, what does he actually add to WSO? Granted I dont add a huge amount either but no one is making threads about me.
what MMM brings to WSO is balls...brass balls. Plus he's a nice guy w/ all the interaction I have had w/ him
Who else will offset Rats comments with legitimate value?

I will never read this blog again if i have to look at a fucking scrotum every time I open the page.
Their blatant lack of any industry knowledge has significantly brought down my interest in this site. Get them off the main page.
Please.
i have never seen so many posts about one dude NOT posting on the forums. flippin christmas trees

What exactly is the issue? I just went to the main site and scrolled through and their is a mix of fun as well as industry. Just on this page 1 of current topics you have discussions on MFE, commodities trading, networking, Private Banking, Obama, LevFin, Non target randomness, Citi and drug test shit. Seems like a decent mix to me.
What exactly would you like to see?
i know you're not asking me, but i'll answer anyway.
what is exactly the issue? reiterating bloomberg and wall street journal headlines with a half-ass attempt at humor is NOT informative.
what exactly would i like to see? lets start with what i do not want to see. i do not want to see mmm's posts or goldman sacks posts on the headlines, b/c they obviously suck. now i will get to what i want to see...i want to see edmundo asshole-face write more posts about life, not finance, b/c they are worth the 5-10 mins its takes to read...i want to see more posts by proven industry experts, preferably with little special stars by their name tags.
how do you go about telling the difference between headlines that are 'headline worthy' and the headlines that just truly suck big fat elephant balls? well, the best headlines are not the ones that reiterate shit from bloomberg...unless theyre earth-shattering headlines that spark meaningful discussion among the industry experts on this site. start with that.
what else would i like to see? a section on this website that only lets industry experts and proven knowledgeable users to view and post.
this is a harsh response, i know. but YOU asked the question, i just answered. not trying to insult anybody, just trying to voice an opinion to make this website a little bit better.
Also, does a blog post guarantee that something gets posted to WSO's front page? If so, I am going to be posting about IlliniProgrammer's secret learn-accounting snake oil, available for $39.95 if you send a check or money order to my PO box.
If people want content, I can try to make a couple of posts with relatively boring life advice from a 25-year-old. They won't be cool as Edmundo's posts or that former CBOE CEO's posts, but it will at least tide people over.
Aside from being teabagged...
They have the depth of an article in Us Weekly, and they are not funny. Way too much wannabe editorializing, not much in the way of facts. Midas is average. GMS needs to go.I really would like to see only people with expert insight on the main page.
Does anybody want to read a bad summary of an article that is not even linked properly? http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/blog/indicators-that-work-facts-that-act…
Or a long, average summary/commentary on a good article? http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/blog/wall-street-in-the-er
Just my opinion. I know this site can do better.
Here's a more important issue concerning the site's content: where have Edmundo and Drexelalum been?
It still seems that Edmundo's around every once and a while, but it definitely feels like he's taken a step back from the site. I haven't even seen Drexel.
If WSO is really trying to keep it's content at a level worth reading, then we need to keep those guys (also AnthonyD) around.
Also, I forgot to say "thread-jack."
+1 for Edmundo
Guys, I'm on vacation until next week. I haven't taken a step back from the site (or any bar in the past three weeks, for that matter). I'll be in Italy until Sunday, and back to work on Monday.
In the meantime, enjoy the free content on the site, or skip it. Better yet, submit a writing sample that showcases your finance chops, and maybe Patrick will make you famous.
Drexel is busy making it rain these days.
Yeah, im still jerking around as a student and interning. The other star members are working so I would imagine their posting ebbs and flows.
I will settle for deleting GS's profile picture. Not really work safe- possibly scaring away other posters.
Ditto... I do most of my reading / replying while I'm at work and last thing I'd like is an MD strolling by and seeing a gold sack on my screen. If he just sees Wallstreetoasis that's fine, he'll probably think it's a new website but if he sees a gold sack, well then I'm done... Speaking of which, an MD popped up while I was typing this..
+1.....as if it is not hard already to make this typing look like work. Besides, I do not really like much of his content.
This thread is basically a meeting of the WSO 5 families.
LOL...so true!
I do feel that GS's picture should probably be changed, but if he is not in violation of any current site policies, then I suppose there's not much else that can be done except to not read his posts.
funny stuff
Gold Man, please delete your balls. I will look into if i can remove it.
I dont know the metric which allows for front page posting. I will look into it.
Ok. Somebody made a comment about the lack of quality OPs involving life advice on the site, so I made a post in the banking section to see if I can help fill the void. It's not meant to compete with a Monty/Marcus/Edmundo life-advice post, but hopefully it can tide people over until everyone gets back from vacation. Hopefully other experienced members will step up to the plate, too.
Thank you! That's a good point. As a guy, I don't think it's in quite as poor taste as showing certain body parts, but I'm guessing female readers may disagree.And FWIW, I'm not a moderator. I think Anthony is. The star just means that Patrick has confirmed I work in industry. (That may change if my MD walks by and I have GS's avatar on screen.)
New idea: regard their posts as ironic. If you read them as an intentionally bad imitation of Wall Street, it works.
Sure, sure. It's easier to do that, though, if I see someone with a painted face like a clown wearing a suit rather than body parts as an avatar.
i know its been a while since this got posted but i just came across it for the first time. Help me understand what kind of content you like to see on here and I'll try to accommodate.
regarding the sack of glory - we'll see what the poll results are. i'd hate to part with it, but whatever happens happens.
Hey GMS! Welcome back!
My main complaint was the NSFW stuff making the front page all the time. That was all. Your SFW posts were interesting.
hmmmm.....im thinking of getting a new avatar, any ideas?
This is like the 3rd or 4th thread created about this. MMM has obviously joined some anti government miltia out in the back woods.
LOL. My bad. I didn't see the others.
