Re: Member Poll - Disallow Rumors? (CLOSED - THX 4 VOTING)

My virus protector still says OOM2 is not safe....but I do have a question..is the idea of getting rid of hear say personal or factual...we all read the rumors..we all see those not come true...but if the elite members are allowed to judge..will they be removing post that Okie himself predicts?? Trains coming 747's flying.. to me these are all in the same guidelines...just curious.. So if we are only to believe what is in print and Iraq controls that..we sure don't have a lot of options..

It seems funny to me that with about 30 minutes to go, so few have voted, but so many sqawk, (on both) sides of the issue,

It is becoming apparent that maybe most of us (23,0000+ members and less then 200 voters) we don't care one way or the other?

Seems funny to me.

Not to worry, those threads are not effected by this poll, they still go to OOM2, either way, the poll is about "guru" posts.

This is kind of painful... We never had a chance from the beginning.

I love the OOM2 site. It was a great solution to the growing number of "other" intel coming in. As much as the naysayers and "hearsay" sometimes bug me, if we silence them completely, we lose our edge. If we are to be the generation to take back our countries from "they that lie to us", we need to have it all available to us so we can decide what is truth. We need to think for ourselves and stop being lazy. This is a christian site. That is the foundation on which to build. I say allow the hearsay so we can decide for ourselves. We lose our dignity and the opportunity to choose when we are spoon fed. IMHO

Yes 1alaskan, the same thing I was thinking about the amount of participation, well ...rick152

Hey some of are just a bit more passionate than others huh?

by 1alaskan Fri Jan 27, 2012 12:43 pm

Yes, I I also wonder if the the members who want to keep the "rumors" have pm'ed, emailed their friends who might want that also, to join the cause, for over an hour now, no new votes?

me pesonaly, don't care one way or the other, but, I already know who of the "providers" I read, and those I don't, I guess in other words, I already had my fill and know when to step away and not have seconds.

But I do think that some members just like to stir the pot and see what happens, which of course makes one wonder how happy are they?

Well so far the members that have voted to BAN THE OUTSIDE RUMOR PROVIDERS POSTS.. are in the lead...

by **Purpleskyz** Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:00 pm

Well just because you have 23k members here does not mean that they all come on here everyday. Maybe you can find software for a robo emailer and say hi to all of those folks and ask em' to drop by and vote?

by highdollarfolks Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:33 pm

I personally think that both sides of an opinion or outside info is good. Just like on Dinar Recaps. They post everything, within reason, to give you both sides. This is a crazy investment and NO ONE has been right all the time. I think we need both sides of any story. JMO

by **Ponee** Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:35 pm

Actually, I don't think the poll is measuring what it was intended. Based on what I have read in this thread and others , many did not understand that is was asking about " guru intel " ONLY. So, it is now a distorted indicator.

Might I suggest a change in the title and question itself?

by theloupe Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:35 pm

My vote is NO. Keep the rumors because it's all rumors. Who decides which to allow or disallow? The one who has been perfectly right about everything this whole time? Hmm, haven't noticed that one. If everything is allowed, then each is free to form his own opinion. If not, then someone else is trying to control my thinking by affecting what I am and am not allowed to analyze. It's easy enough to watch and learn who to believe and not believe and to what degree.

by LovingPeopleToLife Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:39 pm

YES... remove all rumors. Helps to keep clarity and dispell any confusion! We know where we can go to hear the rumors - leave it to "them" for posting the rumors!

no, because many rumors have some truth. I would like to be able to read it and be my own judge.

Who really knows? · by holytrinity Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:47 pm

The roller coaster ride from those In THE KNOW has been something else. They say read
with discernment. OK sounds easy enough. At this point does anyone really know the truth of what is going on except for God who knows all things. The news media lies without a second thought, politicians - well do they even know what truth is? The 3 letter Agencies - IRS-CIA-FBI etc - are these people to be trusted when part of their job description is to lie. Hmmmm...... So well meaning people are trusting "other well meaning people" and we are
still waiting for the elusive RV because no one really knows. We are trusting that it will happen.

My husband and I bought dinar a year ago and now he is in Heaven with his heavenly Father and Savior. He will never enjoy the fruit of this investment but God's Blessing of eternal life puts this to shame! But a Blessing it will be for many who are in need. Remember to tithe liberally to further God's work so it doesn't disappear like a puff of smoke!!

God Bless everyone and may we see the RV SOON!

by **doodoo** Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:47 pm

I don't know whether it's because today is Friday(Iraq's holy day), which typically is a very slow day with mostly backpedaling and/or RV this weekend, cash in Monday guru posts, or the newly locked down threads......but something about the site today sure seems boring....Is it just me needing a long catnap, or does anybody else feel the same?

If it is rumor then the communication should be marked as such but I do not think that it should be banded. After all, the intel that does come in is really rumtel even from the most reliable sources or we would have seen an RV months ago.

Thanks for asking!

Who is going to verify the truth to any articles posted? The only way to TRULY verify anything is by experience. Everything else is faith. Think about it.

A rumor is a rumor, someone that dose not like what they "hear" starts a rumor, ask any "liberal", it works for them

by dinardizzy Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:16 pm

NO, do not disallow the rumors. I'm for freedom of expression. Oftentimes people cannot divulge details nor links to protect the safety of the source. Do we really want to shut off communication?

If you feel Okie's info is getting too diluted, maybe we could have a section on the site that's just for unverified info and rumors?

This does not include sharing by a member in their own words things that they have first hand experiences with.
This does not include sharing of theories and possibilies by the members and mods, as picking apart information from a theory stand point, is a good way to form opinions.

This poll will run for 48 hours, it does not allow multiple voting, and hearsay posts will be locked down until the vote is in.

by vegasdinar Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:28 pm

Just label them as rumors or just let it go.

With that said, I find it hard to believe that people come on an internet message board and use that info to go out and make foolish financial decisions. That's not the intel providers' fault. That's just stupidity. It's a lesson learned, I guess. ..

by captspiffy Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:31 pm

IMO if you disallow rumors, then everything posted so far is a rumor ! Nothing written in these forums by the so called geniuses has been true and correct.
So boys and girls, to disallow rumors, just close the site down. It's all been one giant rumors so far anyways ! 8)

by UpwardCall Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:32 pm

Okie Oil Man without intel? That seems like an oxymoron, but in a good way. If we stick to articles and proven facts, you might as well just read the newspaper and sell your dinar, like they will tell you to.

by Darling Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:43 pm

I was certain that mo member would only want the truth, the facts on what is really happening. I was shocked to see 38% want to continue with rumors.....61% want only facts. HMMMM.

I believe for some, it isn't the rumors they want, it is the interaction that comes from those posts. If only news articles are posted then banter is eliminated, some people come here for the conversations over the rumors.

by ou812 Fri Jan 27, 2012 2:45 pm

The problem is that a lot of people here only want to hear positive things, ive seen members
tell people to get out of here when they post something negative, so what happens when someone posts a negative fact, will they be told to get lost just curious.

This is NOT about opinions or theories of non members that might be brought in for discussion, but not based on phone calls or things they have heard. People such as Bondlady and Kaperoni are a couple of examples of people that pick apart or offer their take on what is going on, from ARTICLES and documents.

This is NOT about taking out Okie or the wingmen... Okie has intentionally backed off of posts that generate false hope... and doesnt just report stuff he hears on the phone, but things that he has studied regarding the economies... and besides that, this site was built for Okie and his friends.

This is NOT about taking out first hand reports of OOM members that might have had a bank encounter.

This is NOT about Nasera, Ron Paul, Conspiracy theories or anything NON related to the dinar, as we have created a section for that... its ONE click away at the top of the forum... and easily navigated.

Disallow hear say postings?
