I was wondering not seeing any post from him in the last two weeks.

A fresh 52 week low today, and below my buy price of $5.45
Luckily I pulled my buy price when it was obvious things are not plain sailing at SUM.
Beagle looks like he's gone completely from the Member List.
Refer 'Community' pull down menu above, then click 'Member List'.
Alphabetically, gone from B.
Checking his old name out, alphabetically gone from R.
If sorting by reputation, gone completely.
Anyone know what's happened?
If you get banned you don't show up on the member list while it is in place I think V1
I think this is what happened.
He was not happy with the way the thread "Your $1mil inheritance etc" was going.
As he started the thread, he thought he was entitled to delete it.[I thought that was the case too].
Seems STMOD appears to have decided otherwise.
This led to his disagreement with STMOD,which led ultimately to him, I think leaving ST, then being banned.
I gather he left this forum. A few days later he was banned for some conversation with the Mods who consequently binned all his posts and stripped him of his membership. A sad loss!
Yes that is a sad loss. It is a really concerning issue that posters here enter discussions and debates in good faith and often lead to a very interesting sharing of often very different ideas and approaches. To then delete all posts from posters, often written over several years, whether they do it themselves or STMOD does it, undermines the whole exercise of having a forum like this. Sadly we have seen a few of these situation in the last 2-3 years.
I will miss the Beagle, but also acknowledge the ref did need to give him the yellow card on occasions, but a permanent red, whoever decided that (I fully acknowledge it may have been Beagle himself), seems over the top.
A very sad loss to this community. Two things seem over the top.
1) The instigator having the right to delete all posts and to close a thread.
2) The deletion of all past wisdom from the public domain when someone is banned.
Well summed up Iceman, completely agree. While I did get tired of the repetition at times when he got a Bee in his Bonnet over something, (e,g, Heartland) and I didn't always agree with his perspective, he certainly contributed a lot to the forum.
A real shame he is no longer part of it.
