I was responding to another's post who said a particular person was greedy. And you just said that 'some do buy into the dinar for greed'. I didn't say all did. I didn't say you did. But, apparently my statement got you upset. For those that are not greedy, my statement will not stick. Do you consider yourself a Christian? May I ask what are your plans for your profit?

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I do recall there being more recent topics in this section. I just don't remember what they were. Admins? Mods? Did anyone take some topics out?

Yea, just like buying 1 million dinar for $1000 for the purpose of making $1 million. Greed abounds in dinarland, too.

Glitch? Check out the site they saw it on: Yahoo Finance Make sure you're on the Interactive Chart and select the 5-day chart. You'll see a gap from July 13th 10:13pm GMT to July 16th 4:04am GMT. That's where the 'glitch' occurred. During closed hours. No trading happening. But the Exchange rate in black numbers never changed during that glitch.

I got it. Not spooky, though.

I don't know enough about RI to make a comment. But, I do know that Kuwait did not have an RV like the gurus have claimed.

I am still wondering why he was changed to a Lopster. Even this thread got sent to LOP Talk.

He is no longer with DV.

It was ignorant of myself concerning the issue of LOP. Loss of Profit sounded more like a financial term than "lopping" zeros. "Removing" sounds better than lopping. But that's Just My Humble Opinion. You know, JMHO. When I'm wrong and I realize it, then I'll admit it. Besides, a little whip cream on humble pie is very filling. Goes great with coffee. I'm not a guru, nor am I an idiot. I can see that Dave did not call me either of these. And because of DaveD and I am smarter than I was before. And more arrogant! Now I'm a bigger know-it-all than before!!! That is, until there is something else brought up that I don't know.

Looks like I stand corrected. Even though i am sitting down. OK. Now I'm standing, but hunched over. This is uncomfortable. Sitting back down. January 2010 post in DV, people are calling it "lop off the zeros". So, it does NOT mean Loss Of Profit. Just like RV does not mean Recreational Vehicle Unless one is buying a Winnebago. A lop is a redenomination and a redenomination is a lop. I thought that a LOP included RDs and other forms of profit-losses. Thank you, DaveD. I still prefer RD over "LOP". RD is more technical and has more of a superior feel to it.

Someone posted about how Saddam's Iraq refused to accept Iraqi dinar from other countries after merchants had accepted dinar in exchange for goods. I would call that a form of a LOP. As for derogatory intent, perhaps I am feeling more than what is actually there. Online conversations lack a person's vocal intonation. "I see that you believe that an RV will not happen." as opposed to "You're a LOPster! eeewww!". The labeling usually accompanies a condenscending tone. LOP vs RD. The RD is specific to removing 3 zeros. A LOP can be the RD or any other form of Loss of Profit.

Perhaps he has good work habits and sound principles.

Yes, it is. But a LOP is not always an RD. That's why I choose RD. It's a specific event. If the Iraqi government decide not to accept the current dinar from overseas, that could be a LOP. But it wouldn't an RD. Also, the term LOPster is derogatory as it is used by Pro-RVers,etc.

Read those posts again. Eagle1 was incorrect on the subject about the rate in Europe. That was verified. It appears that he got his info from campdav. And Delta is getting his from Eagle1. The basis of their points is from a post of Eagle1. Copy and Paste? No one gave credit from whom they got their info. That's plagiarism.

RD is specific. LOP is generic. A LOP can have many forms.

Delta talks about what Eagle1 was talking about. Eagle1's comments are posted in DV This low rate Eagle1 was talking about came from Yahoo Finance: Yahoo Finance There was a glitch. It happened over the weekend. That low rate no longer appears. While you're there check the Summary and the Basic Chart. There is also a number which represents how much 1 Euro is worth in IQD. That number never changed even on the chart with the glitch. I saw the glitch. It appeared within the Interactive Chart. The small text in blue changed to a low rate. But the large text in black never changed. Those are the important figures. Another person named campdav was on Bondlady's posting. campdav said the very same thing that Eagle1 had said. And both what Eagle1 and campdav stated were verbatim. One of them plagiarized the other. After looking at the 2 posts, it appears to me that Eagle1 plagiarized campdav.. scroll down halfway to find that post.

Sans, it disturbs me a little that you agree with me on those points. Actually, you're correct. You don't seem to have a fanbase. So, I missed on that one. RV theory vs LOP theory. How about RV theory vs RD theory instead?

If the following is correct, then something huge CAN happen. I copied this from somewhere where they have recaps: YAHOO SEARCH INFO ON RAMADAN: You may be familiar with Ramadan's basic practices, such as abstaining from food, drink and sex during the daylight hours of the holy month, but there are some facts that you may not be aware of ... Ramadan is the second highest spending month of the year in the Middle East: Many Muslims break their fast in restaurants and cafeterias during Ramadan, and enjoy entertainment until the early hours of the morning. Others spend the evenings, after the sunset meal Iftar, wandering around shopping malls (many of which have extended opening hours), socialising and buying gifts. By the end of the month, consumer spending will have dramatically soared to make it the second biggest month after Christmas. Companies such as telecoms providers, consumer goods brands and government agencies consequently spend up to half of their annual advertising budget during Ramadan as people in the region spend more time at home, shopping or calling friends and family. END Not saying that something huge will happen. Just showing that the word "NOTHING" is incorrect. Anything can happen during Ramadan.

RRS, his comments and replies are for comic relief. Almost every statement is made to provoke the target into making in irrational statement. This is meant to cause his opponent to appear ridiculous. He also makes what looks like wise retorts to win favor from certain people. To build a fanbase. His best argument is the conspiracy theory. It's theory. Theory does not use observation nor fact. Theory: 1. a coherent group of tested general propositions, commonly regarded as correct, that can be used as principles of explanation and prediction for a class of phenomena: 2. a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject to experimentation, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact. Sans is definitely not a guru. He says that himself. I could be wrong, but I think he dislikes gurus such as Okie and others that are similar. He sees DaveD and dinarck as the opposite of Okie, but dislikes them probably because they, in Sans' opinion, "pump" LOPping. Sans might argue this point, but I think I'm close. Sans, feel free to correct me on this. As for Jagerson, a dozen members of DV combining their strengths together, could not debate Jagerson. But the problem is not the facts, but rather everyone's beliefs. Belief has strong ties to one's emotions and all of the world's logic cannot break a belief. Jagerson will always be wrong, because they believe in an RV.

I'm curious as to why these people decided that you were not the kind of person they wanted to be friends with? Was it because all of them were crazy to begin with? Was it because they thought you were crazy? Was it your relationship to the Dinar investment that made you look crazy? I assume that you bathe regularly. One person? It happens. Two people? Coincidence. Three or more people? Start looking for the common denominator. In the meantime, I'd stopping handing out dinar. Try baking cookies or canning preserves for them instead. That's what we do. Good luck and have a better day.

Follow-Up from Eagle1 at KTFA Emailed to Recaps Sun. 07/15/2012 Follow-up to Frankfort Forex from Eagle-1 - possible TIMING Jxxxxxxx asked me a similar question, so let me respond here on the forum with pretty much the same answer I gave to Jim since this is a question spinning around in more than a few heads. One would think that the 17th is the next logical day, and that may well be the case. Honestly, I look for the announcement virtually any minute. Normally, however, when an item like this shows up on FOREX and it is still there at the end of the business day, it will remain there until trading resumes, whether it begins the next morning at 8:00 AM or, in the case of a weekend, when trading resumes on Monday morning. .... Read More Link on Right As far as whether they would wait for a week or not to implement the actual rate change, because of the possibility of investors scooping up the currency (and some will do that anyway!) and expecting to reap their dividend within 24 hours or even a week, the actual release time is kept a closely guarded secret, and could delay as much as 30 days (and even 90 days in some cases) if the IMF and Central Bank thought it appropriate. As far as I know, (and this certainly doesn't mean I know all there is to know about this process!) the general rule of thumb is that when these items show up like this on FOREX, we can usually expect the actual currency change to occur within 72 hours. Notice, also, that the announcement came just prior to a weekend. No trading takes place over the weekend, and by making the announcement at the close of business on a Thursday, it limits speculative trading. Traders generally know that (and there are restrictions in place -- TOUGH RESTRICTIONS) they can't implement any currency transactions with that particular currency during the following 72 hours. Hence, the weekend announcement. That's my take on things, for what it's worth! Blessings on you. Eagle1 ############################################### He's calling the date for the 17th. I suppose he means July. The man lives in a bubble. On TBS...Very Funny.

You are correct. No eating, drinking, having sex during daylight hours. However, they are allowed to conduct business, banking, set policy, hold elections, print new currency in smaller denominations, exchange old for new currency, and exchange new currency for US dollars. All during the daylight hours. They are even allowed to use the "facilities". Anything can happen during Ramadan.

The comments were very cordial and polite. I guess the subject matter was a sensitive issue. Makes one begin to wonder.

Very inspiring. I'll try to apply that myself. And you're right about 20Mill. He has brought a lot of knowledge and insight while keeping it humble.

I only pump gas into my car. BL is the one calling the dates. She earlier said June 15th, then July 15th was a possible window. Now it's July 20th. She might be taking an online class from Okie on how to call rates and dates.
