Nope, it was set up so that you have to get approval to do so. Send Patty O'Nanners a PM with a reason and he should be able to help you out.

I'm thinking about just getting a new account and starting over. Am I the only one who feels embarrassed for posting so much? I feel like that except for the staff--Patrick, Midas, Eddie, etc.--the greater number of posts = the lesser amount of life one has. I know it's not necessarily true--I run several businesses, hold a great job, have a really hot 18-year-old blonde gf (eh, she could stand to get a boob job, but her body and face are SIIICK)---but still. I dunno, I think at 1,000 bananas I'm going to retire and maybe start as someone else. Or is it that kind of thinking sort of gay? I mean, we're basically anonymous...I dunno, I'm probably being ridiculous.

I don't think so...yeah my posts skyrocketed when I was hospitalized, but I think its important to show who knows what they are talking about (for the posters who are really high). Although I have no idea what I'm talking about outside of politics...haha

Reality hits you hard, bro...
 

Yeah, I started posting more beginning in the summer of 2010 when I broke my leg in early July. Couldn't drive until October. Broke both my legs when I was 14, so I picked up a book and my life changed. If I hadn't broken my legs I'd be a washed up 5'8" pitcher with an associates degree working as an insurance agent. Funny how that works.

I definitely agree with the having no life thing. I have no life.

Joking, of course. I usually hop on WSO a couple times every day what with my weird schedule. Usually it's while watching the news or a movie, I like hopping back and forth and not having to stop for commercials or sit through boring/worthless/old news.

Disagree on not having a life. Most people read trash on the internet, surfing sites like texts from last night and bulshit like that. At least WSO is incredibly informative. Don't change your username; you've built up significant brand equity and have developed a quality reputation on the site.

This website is a goldmine of knowledge. Seriously, I used to spend over an hour a day on Yahoo Finance.... Those are days I would like to forget.

Patrick decided to turn it off at the request of many of the more frequent posters here. No more trolls allowed to run away from their reputations.
