Yes! That is true too. So, every loyal TEDdy is requested to work double time to make sure the quality remains at 100% that we have maintained since TED's inception.
Since inception:
1) NO SPAM
2) No talks about any stock, without solid backing of reasoning and valuations.
3) No cheap talk/no use of derogatory language
Everyone has to keep a watchout for the same!

lol... Omjee that was great.. Though i am new to the club, i feel an integral part of it. And in my view, the reason for them to quote this club as seasonal is because it started in July 2006 (just when the bull market started roaring high). My intentions are not to hurt anyone here and even i hated the article because of the way they quoted TED, but all i am to do is state the reason why they quoted TED as a "seasonal website".
But soon all will be proven wrong when they see the long term survival of this wonderful forum.
Cheers!!!

I am a member of capital ideas club as well and it was nice to know two great ideas being reviewed by a paper like mint.
to those who want to be part of capital ideas club, the entry norms are quite stiff as the article itself states.
but it is quite an intellectual effort to prepare a four or five page analysis on a company. you end up learning a lot. and as an investor you figure out how to ask questions.
this is not to say I am denigrating TED. One is a happy adda where we exchange useful information that benefits everyone. The other is a like an evening school where one picks up a degree after working hours.....

I just re-read my post again. I would like to point out that I was not pointing at the other two websites that were included alongwith TED on LiveMint, but I was rather pointing at the "so-called flavor of the season" webites floating all over the web. Just wanted to put the actual meaning of my words on record so that no one who is running a genuine investor site gets hurt! I wish all genuine investor-websites potloads of luck!
Now there...done that!
Btw Shiv jee, when one gets a Ph.D degree while feeling he is actually having 'fun' and 'adda' it is called a "Warren Bufett+Peter Lynch mixture'. That is the beauty of TED...one doesnt even feel that he is collecting a high-profile degree at the end of it! It all feels like 2nd nature and that is what investing is all about...rather than paper-work becoming the sole point of judging someone. I leave the "just paper-work" for the great analysts at the brokerage houses. Not trying to put someone's efforts at paperwork down, but just sharing some thoughts.
Three cheers for the TED in each one of us...The Entrepreneur Drive in each one of us!

Arre, it is not such a big issue. I was also taking a shot at LiveMint. All is well. I didnt hate the article, but yes...the author needs to spend sometime at TED to get a feel of what it is all about. We are all busy people, and they may be too! 
But one more thing, we do not need to prove anything to anyone Sandeep jee about our survival etc. We just need to focus on doing investing the right way and helping each other and whatever else has to happen will happen.
Also roaring bull market started in 2003 not 2006!
Om Namah Shivaya!
