I wanted to read about the hilarious banning of ROBO Marx but I can't because ace-exchange is down.

Has IntLib finally run off with everyone's money?

It's back up.

He's actually taking it in good humour to be fair to him.

He's not banned from ACE, it's far more serious than that!

A perm banning from SL... wow. Running a stock market is hazardous for your account. Duly noted.

Or is it a tier trading business? Blah.

Wow, so it is. I don't buy the hypothesis that the deed was renting tier (else Elanthius needs to watch his back). I'd imagine that chopping up land into little pieces yet again, albeit into slightly larger little pieces this time, finally pushed someone's patience too far. It's not as if that hasn't been a hot button issue between LL and Robo for--what?--over two years now?

He seems to think it was the logo he put on his stores. Without seeing them it's hard to form an opinion but yeah, he was on thin ice.

You can drop by http://slurl.com/secondlife/Annelie/56/88/35 and see one of these "stores" up close and personal. They're basically house-shaped ads.

In all fairness I have to admit that Grandma Wrigglesworth is an alt of mine and I just couldn't be bothered to fix it after accidentally posting as her.

just saw it. it's more than a little obvious the ban had little to do with cutting the 512s into 256, nor the "rent tier venture", but rather the blatant, in your face violation of TOS regarding advertising. it's also highly doubtful that this was his first warning as to the AdverTOS. in order for him to believe himself innocent, or any of his compatriots to believe such for that matter, it would require an admission to being absolutely ignorant.

I don't know much about these exchanges, I've avoided them completely so far. But did Robo sell off 120450 shares at 2.14/share in an IPO just a week or two ago? Who has that money right now?

On his blog he states it's in his now closed account, so in theory, the Lindens have it.

Robo had plenty of opportunity to straighten up. He blatantly continued to violate TOS and find any method to bend the rules.

If he stuck with KNITTING, he wouldn't have these problems now.

Glad he's been terminated.

Edit: I hope 'they' don't waste their time at the next Jack OH Meeting. But it might be amusing.

ACE is already planning a media coup at Jack's tomorrow.

Fox and CNN should be there to watch as 50+ people tell the handful of ACE investor wannabees that Robo got what he deserved, and to cheer Jack for a job well done.

I'll be there early. :)

Not sure why but apparently IntLib has it in for Jack based on some long standing feud. It's probably just part of Int's general attempts to cause chaos and disrupt the grid. Why else would he be so strongly associated with all the worst people in SL. Funny how they all gather around him like flies to honey, or something worse.
