Observations on AFB healthHere are some interesting facts gleaned from the Members tab and home page this morning: - Lovemyipad last logged in Jan 6, 2014
- Our 'peak' usage was on Jan 27, 2014 -- 310 users
- Many new members have registered since 2014
- No member registered after 2014 has posted a comment
- Interestingly some members register during 2014 have
- This affirms the suspicion that there are some administrative tasks being left undone
- We currently have 627 members
To sustain the Board, we really must find Lovemyipad. We need to transfer the reigns or reinstate her as Admin. Any leads you've got, please follow.

What about possible remnants of her in the “old” AFB? I don’t recall if she was there (under a different name) or if she newly joined after the move here...

Same username I believe. She was also part of a group of traders which she was tending to spend more and more time with before she ultimately left AFB2. Anyone here now who was a "member" of that group or know someone who was?

Anyone here now who was a "member" of that group or know someone who was? I thought Mav and Sponge were but could definitely be wrong. They're both still here and would most likely see the call for help. Still...,who knows? Congrats to the longs on the latest run. Had a bit too much fun last night personally. :-o

What about Mace or TommoUK. Mace was a trader? I think I saw Tommo posting at PED recently.

He and SNIPUS were into cornering the silver market Mace posted here last around a year ago. Haven't heard from him in a while. Poking around the trading thread it appears Mav, mjuarez, rickag, appledoc, madmaxroi were fairly active there. mav and rickag are probably the best bets.

Great discussion yesterday, both on buybacks, the dividend, and Siri. Loved it all. Thanks to all of you ! !
The data Since84 mentions is serious. I know I cannot help. Sorry. But wow, where is she, and might Robert Lateo help? I always thought he knew everything about this board.

Another possible lead: Remember when we use to have an AAPL ticker on the top of the forum? There was a member who used to fix the code that when the Google feed changed. I poked around in some older threads trying to find a reference to him fixing it to get the username but came up empty.
Anyone remember who this was? Had to have some form of admin or other access to accomplish that.

There are a lot of great ideas surfacing this morning for contacting Lovemyipad. Please follow your leads wherever it takes you and ask the Board for help if needed.
I'm hopeful we'll find here. Restarting the Board is a last resort as we lose all of our history and most likely a few members in the process.
Mav thought he had, but couldn't find her contact info.

Nice to see AAPL's strength given the general tone of the market.

Sorry AppleDoc... Would have been until Apple released the new share counts. Now we have to wait until $207.05. 🙄

Gene Muenster was mentioning something that is really important .... financial engineering of the stock. He was saying there could easily be 20-25% upside from Apple's buybacks alone ... I agree. In addition, while Apple completes it's buy backs the services sector of it's business will keep growing and will simply be way too large to ignore .... putting those together and assuming no major market events (yea right ?) I think we have a nice path to $300.
Not counting on anything yet but just saying the road to there is right in front of us.
Cheers to the longs.

Uncle Warren announces his earnings tomorrow. I'm sure he'll say he bought a crap load of AAPL too. Should help move the stock again tomorrow.
