I have been getting a feeling that HYIPDiscussion is being run by scammers. First of all they are now locking any posts that talk badly about PIPs, which everyone knows is a scam by now. Are they covering up for PIPs? Are they running PIPs? There there are posts like this one:

It is in fact an excellent move by admin. Please take the TalkGold link back to the cesspool where you found it. TalkGold is a scam site and it is not safe to post or even visit there. I hear they are now recording members IP addresses who do not tow their official line.

They also have history of fraudulent activity. It is not safe posting there or even going to the forum because I also heard it is rampant with spyware.

That was posted over at hyipdiscussion by one of their "posting addicts" who I believe has something to do with running HYIPD. If funny that he accuses talkgold of being scammers, when HYIPDiscussion is actually supporting a known scammers, and HYIPInvestment advertises scams ever after they are confirmed scams. HYIPInvestment is run by the admin of HYIPdiscussion as everyone knows. The ads they have on the side of their site are usually scams, and they only remove the ads when someone outbids them. If you notify them that a program has stopped paying, they don't even remove the ads.

I personally think something needs to be done, as they are misleading investors into investing in these programs, especially PIPs. They are no banning any members that talk badly about PIPs. This is truely pathetic that HYIPdiscussion has come to this.

The funniest part is that they call talkgold a scam. lol

HYIPD are a tiddler in comparison to TG, most of their readers also come here despite what some of the elitists over there think. Don't let 'em get to you

The element of a unfair competition does not decorate HYIPD and HYIPI. Though can something decorate them at all?

HYIPD does lean toward a couple programs that I strongly disagree with BUT all in all, I don't think their intent is to scam anybody. In their defense, I think Loretta was trying to close the PIPS thread not b/c it is/isn't a scam but because the cheerleaders/trolls were starting to take over the forum. Personally, I think the number of posts for/against PIPS in all the forums (IT4US is a close second) have just gotten tired and old and I hate having to waste the brain cells sifting through them when I am searching for new posts.

It just ticked me off seeing that one guy trying to get people to not come here, claiming that Talkgold is full of spyware. I can not stand how people continue to bash talkgold simply because it allows us to speak our minds.

I also don't think HYIPD runs any programs or are affiliated with any. As for their ads, it's up to them what they want to do. I like removing programs once I know they are a scam, but what they are doing is not illegal I don't think, so thats up to them.

As for supporting PIPs, I don't think it's so much that the admin supports PIPs, but it's the moderators there who have a large sum of money in PIPs, and don't want anything else bad happening to the program. Again, if they lock the folders, thats up to them. It doesn't make them scammers.

As for me being a scammer. I know I'm not, but if people want to believe that I am it's fine with me. The HYIP arena is filled with scammers, spammers, and liars. If you're in the arena long enough you are bound to be called a scammer yourself. I never scammed anyone and never will.

As for TG recording IPs of people that don't tow our official line, thats untrue. First of all, what exactly is our official line? Freedom of Speech? LOL Second of all, IPs are recorded by everyone who makes a post, thats just what Vbulletin does. Every forum including HYIPDiscussion record IPs. Do I use these IP's for anything? Only to see if members are using more than one username to promote their programs.

All in all, this comment by derrick doesn't make any sense to me, and I'd like him to come here and explain what he means.

As for the forum being rampant with spyware..... thats an absolute lie. Please show me where this spyware is if you say it's here. I dont know what Derrick has against me, but I'd be happy for him to post some evidense to his claims. If there's spyware here, I want to know so I can delete it (I'm 99.99% certain there isn't any).

There's no reason to say that talkgold is a scammer forum, unlike a certain other forum that everyone knows...

Talkgold is simply one of the biggest forum in the net about investment programs, so that everyone comes here... thus lots of difference in opinions before peoples find their niche favorite forums.... some finds interests in playing the ponzi game, some finds interest in directly investing, some finds interest in 2nd hand investing, some find interest in offline investing, and many others... don't take it too seriously when peoples with specific interest comment a bit about this forum... It seems to be ran quite well and fine enough to me...

Derrick is just sick of seeing spam and spam and spam about PIPS, in hyipdiscussion, it's changing the forum into a pips flame forum.... and that's why the moderators closed the forum... because it's a rehash of the exact same thing...

Quite a few in hyipdiscussion hold our opinions about PIPS, and recommends new members not to join it, considering the 6 months factual payment problems... although one or two 'members' keeps presenting opinions as facts against PIPs, and causing flame war, which is pointless... -_-

I talk quite badly about pips, that new members shouldn't join it, but I'm in no way going to be banned from that from hyipdiscussion...

If HYIPD is tired of fighting then they should make a rule saying it is not allowed. Then if rules are violated then punish accordingly. To just forbid everyone from posting is nonsense. On HYIPD I even referred to it as "pocket Hitler tactics".

There was a lot of fighting when IT was going and that never happened. With PIPS it did. I still think PIPS gets special treatment there because people running HYIPD have money in PIPS.

TG is about free speech and that is what is so great about. I have no idea why this would be called a scammer forum. I would be interested to know how someone came to that conclusion.
