This is an excellent site, but I've noticed that the discussions have been getting progressively diluted. There will usually be a new thread on a relatively obscure topic and maybe 2 or 3 responses at best. This is compared to threads with more content and depth when I first started reading a few months ago. Let's not annoy away all the professionals that seem to provide great content on this forum with a barrage of detritus and dumbed down threads. Posters should sift through all the previous threads before creating new ones to get individual issues addressed. Don't be lazy, it reflects poorly on you, especially if you are trying to become an analyst.

Just my two cents, observations I've made in reading. I'm not a professional myself.

hey guys, really appreciate the comments.

i agree the yellow and grey are ugly as shit. The yellow looks like puke and the grey is too dark.

we are going to be "sprucing the site up" over the next few weeks and might even hire a graphic designer if we can't do it ourselves.

when you say add "polls to the posts", what do you mean? maybe i can publish them on the front page when a new one is released so it is more prominent?

in terms of adding pictures, i will try to work on this as well. it is a tough balance. some people have commented that the home page is too busy, other want more pictures, so we are trying to do our best.

we appreciate your support. any help you can give us in getting the word out is appreciated...the site has experienced tremendous growth over the first few months, but I think the more discussions and perspectives we have, the better. I apologize if you feel the content has been diluted but this is hard to stop. people are going to have specific questions -- and some people are too lazy to use the search tool. those posts should just be answered by saying - "use the search tool"...

thanks again.
