# He shines every day, but never gets hot.

——Has it always been this way, and is it right?

Recently, a widely circulated type of expression has emerged in the community,

where the content of the posts does not explicitly state a position but exhibits a highly uniform structure:

\- Repetition of catchphrases, calm tone, standardized format, and vague viewpoints.

\- Such expressions often invoke terms like "long-termism," "margin of safety," and "value investing,"

\- and construct discourse fields through methods like "screenshotting original texts" or "forwarding quotes," quickly gaining widespread attention and indiscriminate trust in the community.

We are highly concerned about this phenomenon and offer the following clarifications:

**1\. We are not against learning, but we despise performance**

Content platforms should be arenas for intellectual debate, not stages for scripted performances.

We have observed:

-   Some high-frequency posters repeatedly forward unverified financial information under the guise of "reliable sources" or "authoritative quotes";
-   When questioned, they obfuscate, offering no explanations or clarifications;
-   Some even misinterpret unverified media content as policy directives, leading to market misperceptions.

——Not all reposting is wrong,

but everyone who pretends to be the creator is wrong.

  
**2\. We are not against catchphrases, but we oppose "catchphrases replacing logic"**

We have also noticed that some speakers frequently use quotes from "Warren Buffett" or "Charlie Munger" as rhetorical frameworks,

reducing originally profound investment philosophies to mere "content stabilizers" and "identity badges."

"Long-term," "value," "discipline"—these words, which should be realized through practice,

have now become daily-updated template labels,

part of a persona rather than part of cognition.

While such behavior does not constitute direct misinformation,

it emotionally shapes newcomers in the community through a pervasive influence,

easily leading to stagnation in thinking and outsourcing of judgment.

  
——Not every catchphrase is useless,

but every "Munger" used as a shield deserves skepticism.

  
**3\. We are not against information sharing, but we reject "content posturing"**

We are not against sharing information,

we are just tired of those who use information to package hollow posturing from a high ground.

They are not guiding trades,

they are maintaining the illusion of being "someone worth following."

They do not help you judge the market,

they just find a way to feel "needed."

  
**4\. We emphasize:**

True investing is neither a recital nor a formatting exercise;

screenshots cannot replace logic, and forwarding is not equivalent to thinking;

quoting catchphrases should not serve as fig leaves for viewpoints,

nor as shields to evade responsibility.

  
**5\. Those truly worthy of trust are those willing to take responsibility**

Those truly worthy of trust,

are not the ones who screenshot the earliest or speak the most calmly,

but those who are willing to explain their logic, correct their mistakes, and stand by their judgments.

Do not assume someone sees further just because they appear daily;

do not assume someone knows more just because they speak calmly.

  
——Sometimes, they are merely at the edge of the traffic,

——wrapping emptiness in resonance,

——filling the shell of knowledge with silent sugar.

  
///They do nothing but stand firmly.

Over time, you start to believe they are standing right.///

- **深圳吴彦祖 · 2025-04-30T08:47:30.000Z**: Saw several reposts of information, basically no replies, feels like fishing. And there are people showing off their returns with just a few thousand bucks 🤣
- **墨河 · 2025-04-20T04:21:05.000Z · 👍 1**: Yes, for true investors, logic is the most important thing. You present your logic, I deconstruct it and integrate my own information and thoughts, then reconstruct to reach my own conclusion.
- **东月月鸟 · 2025-04-19T05:35:48.000Z · 👍 1**: Sometimes reading too many comments can really affect your judgment and lead to wrong decisions. So I choose not to read comments during trading hours.
  - **深圳吴彦祖** (2025-04-30T08:49:14.000Z): On the contrary, I will read the comments. If everyone is euphoric, like picking up money, it means I should exit. If there's a chorus of despair and curses, then it's time to enter.
- **金将军的交易员 · 2025-04-17T10:10:11.000Z · 👍 5**: 🇰🇵I firmly stand on the side of the people, never forgetting my original intention. Did I choose the right side?
- **黑化的交易员 · 2025-04-17T09:26:28.000Z · 👍 5**: 😄I know who you're talking about. Some people act like the world is ending every time there's a slight disturbance.
- **hlc · 2025-04-17T09:21:56.000Z · 👍 6**: We can't expect others to both shine and generate heat. Since the community is open, everyone has the freedom to express their opinions. Just take a look and don't take it too seriously😂
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T09:22:10.000Z): Yes, expression is free.But so are reminders.It's just that when speakers enjoy the freedom of expression,they rarely take the initiative to bear the consequences of being trusted.
  - **hlc** (2025-04-17T09:26:45.000Z): Then you need to think about why you would trust him so easily.
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T09:34:05.000Z): When &#34;shining&#34; becomes a formatted project, a communication routine, or a rhetoric template,shouldn't we remind ourselves appropriately:Are you seeing &#34;light&#34; or just a &#34;reflection
- **不卖我就不亏 · 2025-04-17T09:21:41.000Z · 👍 4**: Longbridge should set a threshold. Limit the posting frequency per day for those with low assets and low yield. It's realistic but useful.
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T09:23:20.000Z): In the real world,assets and yields often determine who gets to speak;but in the community,thoughts and judgments should determine who gets heard.
  - **[已注销]** (2025-04-17T11:51:24.000Z): More believers will emerge this way, just like a certain path. Those with more capital find it easier to deal with naive investors.
  - **不卖我就不亏** (2025-04-17T12:09:20.000Z): That's how it is. There are quite a few things on Longbridge that might be intentionally misleading, but it's hard to say for sure since it hasn't been around long enough. Anyway, I'm not following th
- **走了 · 2025-04-17T08:14:39.000Z**: I think the community should directly ban all posts that don't mention investment risks, and it would be better if everyone completes a safety education session before joining the community for the first time.As for communication, keep it more free 🫣
  - **走了** (2025-04-17T08:14:56.000Z): Risk Education
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T08:16:20.000Z): Communities can regulate behavior,but they cannot regulate judgment.Risk warnings are important,but free choice should never be replaced by 'training'.
  - **走了** (2025-04-17T08:18:55.000Z): Well, that's trueWisdom comes from experience, you can't form your own judgment without losing some money
- **zeta · 2025-04-17T08:11:49.000Z · 👍 4**: Recently there have been several accounts spamming messages like bots
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T08:13:14.000Z): Sometimes I wonder,whether it's a real person talking,or just a 'stable output template' doing the talking.

- **回本改个nb的名字 · 2025-04-17T08:01:44.000Z · 👍 3**: The writing is sharp, leaving no secrets uncovered.
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T08:04:48.000Z): Don't expose it, many people still believe it;Exposing the truth is not to mock anyone,but to hope there's still a chance to stop those who haven't paid the tuition yet.
- **嗯叔 · 2025-04-17T07:26:44.000Z · 👍 3**: Who is it? Didn't notice.
  - **差佬的交易员** (2025-04-17T07:43:06.000Z): The article does not point to specific individuals, and it is up to the readers to judge.Some readers in the comment section have already decoded it, respecting every reader's reading experience.
- **精神科主任普京 · 2025-04-17T07:19:20.000Z · 👍 5**: After seeing it, Charlie Munger said, &#34;From satellite launches to postpartum care for sows, there's nothing he doesn't repost.&#34;
- **韭條悟 · 2025-04-17T06:42:06.000Z · 👍 6**: Are you talking about the security guy?
  - **奇迹的交易员cola** (2025-04-17T07:20:47.000Z): Who is the security guy?
  - **韭條悟** (2025-04-17T07:21:10.000Z): safety margin
