<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 941001, member: 19065&quot;]Ruben, you simply don&#039;t have to read this thread, subscribe to it nor&nbsp; opine about the posts of others if you have nothing on topic to say.&nbsp; But thank you for giving me the opportunity to describe some of my views on the matter. Despite your other comments that particularly spark controversial and&nbsp; heated exchanges in the Bullion Investing forum currently being weighed&nbsp; on the Future of the Bullion Forum Section thread amongst the other threads throughout greater CT where you are active and quite often disruptive,&nbsp; there&#039;s no reason to also come to this thread and do the same nor to speculate about what Peter intends to&nbsp; do with any archived conversation, let alone this one or any you&#039;ve&nbsp; initiated as statement or soliciting discourse from others. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now, if you follow intraday metals price fluctuations and use that as a&nbsp; basis for discussion on bullion investing topics, speculate on the&nbsp; catalysts that cause such pricing moves, how timing can be beneficial or&nbsp; detrimental to ones investment, weighing the timing of one anothers&nbsp; speculations, the history of pricing cycles, and so on, then a thread like this with frequently updated price tics is a rather nice spring board for like and interested parties&nbsp; to converse. It is also entertaining at times, for some members to watch the exchanges of others, and it may even prove to be partly educational to others who marginally follow such a thread out of curiosity. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you had followed this thread prior to your comment today, then you would see the number of interested&nbsp; parties far outweighs the number of those like you who suddenly appear with critical comments about posting pricing updates&nbsp; and your glossary summation of its uselessness. You would also then find a number of conversations&nbsp; running and sprinkled throughout this one thread have maintained a fairly healthy exchange of ideas and perspectives on the topic. This thread also has a mirror in the <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t69392/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t69392/">Gold speculated price of $1,350</a>, both threads initiated by&nbsp; elaine1970 in late 2009, active daily since that time...</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben, you are far from original in thinking your comment here is capable of enlightening anyone not already aware of the redundant posts by yourself merely posting to demonstrate the futility of this thread. Some time ago I requested in Support &amp; Feedback for <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t79258/?highlight=precious+metals+ticker" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t79258/?highlight=precious+metals+ticker">A&nbsp; Precious Metals (PM) live market ticker for CT</a>. I recently repeated the request in the <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t115283/#post929621" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t115283/#post929621">Future of the Bullion Section</a> thread, and suggested to others, like you, to redirect to my request thread when they appear here with a similar attitude to yours. You see, I&#039;ve requested Peter at the very least consider adding a precious metals spot price module in the side columns of the Bullion Investing forum and I would certainly appreciate your support in adding such a feature to the Bullion Investing forum of CT. Others have <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t113354/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t113354/">suggested</a> similar additions be brought here as well. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have illustrated the utility of such a module and others have echoed important benefits and customizations of adding such a feature. I think I have made a proactive attempt at solving this and pointed to the potential that using <a href="http://www.silvercoinstoday.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.silvercoinstoday.com/" rel="nofollow">such a module</a> (look in the upper right of that site) as supplied by Kitco or another bullion spot price provider, may keep CT post counts down (if it matters), keep traffic focused on CT instead of accessing other sites for the prices only to repost that info here (potentially loosing a member distracted by their off-site search in the process)... and possibly even using this module on CT to defray costs through advertising hits to a site like Kitco.</p><p><br /></p><p>And yes, if you had followed this thread, you would have known before suggesting it, that we here often cite the link to <a href="http://www.kitco.com/market/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.kitco.com/market/" rel="nofollow">kitco.com/market </a>for current pricing data.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for reading this Ruben.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
