What was your choice of attire?

Howard should probably be placed under a temporary ban until this whole situation is sorted out...

Has Howard actually said anything regarding being put on the ignore list?

Homer isn't a moderator, so this doesn't apply here.

At present, I am still able to view his contributions- though they remain visible to me—but he seems unable to see mine......

...which leads me to wonder—is it permissible for me to quote the esteemed gentleman's posts, or would that be risking a strike against my account?

I should note that my inbox is quite empty; specifically, I have received nothing from the Reddit administration nor any formal notification regarding the fact that a respected fellow user (and, for that matter, a very good friend of mine) @Homer, has flagged my posts

🤷

And what was the reason for putting him on your ignore list?

I already sent you my instructions over there regarding what needs to be done

Is it possible to allow rustymason82 one designated free day per week—specifically for when he might feel inclined to write?

Fine, but why didn't they bother conducting their own internal investigation into those suspicious transactions—instead choosing to point fingers at everyday people and label them as money launderers
and then threatening you with account freezes unless you physically show up at the branch to fill out some survey?

So, JPMorgan Chase just got slapped with a fine totaling tens of millions of dollars because they failed to monitor transactions properly... what was actually going on behind the scenes there?
And honestly—if the issue was money laundering within their own institution—was it really necessary to penalize every single client instead of just targeting the suspicious ones?

says:
-Previously, their voicemail would insist they were collecting data per legal requirements—claiming you had to visit a branch in person, and so on...
Now, that excuse is gone. It’s just a standard voicemail message.

When you arrive at the branch, make it immediately clear that you have no intention of discussing your private life.
Shut down those inquiries right away.
If they claim they need to "consult someone," simply threaten to close all your accounts.

Demand free checking and online banking—be a bit difficult about it.
They offer us 0% interest on savings, yet they have the audacity to charge fees for online access and monthly maintenance.

So, I actually went in—and I'm telling you, being aggressive pays off.👍
I walked straight into the Chase branch and started complaining from the get-go—asking why I even needed to show up when they could handle this remotely... the teller told me to wait, but I just sat down without waiting for permission.
She was staring at me, probably thinking 🤔 but she ended up handling everything herself, even though I didn't have all my paperwork ready.
I didn't answer any of their mindless questions; I just signed the forms... being difficult really does work. 🙂

Previously, I managed my involvement quite differently: I would monitor two specific subforums while subscribing to all other threads to receive notifications whenever new posts appeared 🥳

Well, damn—since I’m working with a business account, I suspect things won't be quite that straightforward... regardless, I might just wing it anyway 🙂

I have some business to attend to at Bank of America in the coming days—essentially a bit of my own "police investigation"—so I suppose I will just ask them directly if they intend to continue with such nonsense...

And why don't you just ask them yourself?
As in... "Why would you even ask me that?"

And if I may offer a thought: while the width of these images is finally hitting the mark—they are precisely where they need to be—you really ought to focus on shortening them... 🧐

@brightviper29, I would offer you an actual response, but you clearly have no interest in the theological nuances of these goat discussions—you simply posted that image to show off your newfound ability to upload files that don't take up three entire screens...
Well, for that alone, you’ve earned my vote 👍

@brightviper29: You can manage to rack up a massive pile of posts if you simply stop watching the news, ignore the papers, and stay off those endless scrolling sites—provided, of course, that you have a job where you can sneak onto the forums during breaks, don't spend your nights grinding through video games, and don't play enough tennis to leave you completely physically spent and face-down on your bed... in that case, you might actually find the time🙂

A few days ago, Federer made a point regarding tennis that applies just as much to soccer: even if you play behind closed doors without a crowd, teams still have to travel—meaning long flights that involve interaction with airport staff and flight attendants.
Then there is the matter of staying in hotels, which inevitably leads to contact with bellhops, servers, and general hospitality staff.
Furthermore, whenever a match is scheduled, someone has to prep the venue—mowing the grass, managing irrigation, cleaning, setting up lighting... television crews have to haul in cameras, microphones, and miles of cabling...
There is simply too much unavoidable social contact...🤷

Honestly, I wouldn't have been surprised if they had staged it that way—starting with a recorded voice asking, "So, what does he think about stores being closed on Sundays?" followed immediately by my response: "No."
🤮

I saw a woman with a microphone and some guy with a camera heading my way—when she asked, "Excuse me, could you tell us your thoughts on the work of..." I simply replied, "No," without even making eye contact ☕
it was better that way; if she had pushed any harder, it would have been just like that incident where they tried to film the service at that cathedral in Chicago...
