I remember iBankingOasis back before we had certified users, and before we had the current theme and logo. 3 years, 20 weeks since I joined...wow.

I actually started a thread over three years ago when I was still in college and got absolutely murdered for it. It looks like a rancid attempt at trolling now but I honestly had no clue back then. I gave it some time and signed back up a year and a half ago.

Can you post the link to the thread. I feel like it would be cool to see how we dealt with accused trolls all those years ago.

i remember the site was mentioned in the wsj along with bankers ball in early 2006.... i been on here almost 4 years... time does fly...

funny but i am pretty active and have a lot of wso "moments"

Interesting that BankersBall seems to have fizzled and died, along with a lot of the other online wall street communities of the 2006-2007 era. Only DealBreaker and WSO have stood the test of time.

Ha,

Apart from the lack of monkey shit and posters who I have never heard of, nothing has really changed....good to know. On second thought, let your balls drop...maybe we were a little more vicious.
