Fred updated his blog today.
http://fred93blog.blogspot.com/2010/05/prospercom-no-more-stats.html

Nothing exciting.  Just comments on Prosper's recent software update, accounting bugs, and the fact that Prosper is no longer supplying loan performance data.

Fred updated his blog today.

Every time I see this I wonder are you Fred, talking in third person?

 ???

This was asked a long time ago:

Dumb question, why you feel a need to quote yourself in the third person whenever you discuss your Blog posts?  Just curious no big deal....

Actually what Fred93 is doing is referencing his blog-authoring persona in the 3rd person.

Did it once.  Liked it.  Seemed consistent with the Zoidberg avatar.

Don't wanna get too serious here.

Classic comment from Urbi to a poster who said they were leaving:

"Once again, we note that your threats are hollow and you come across like a sad, lonely blowhard.

I doubt anyone here gives a shit about you.  We pretty much all know that you are a vile and unethical parasite of a human being with an abnormal craving for attention."

I agree that it sucks that the page is down, and that 3rd party stat sites can't update, but, short of
hiring a plane to do some sky-writing, I'm not sure what else Prosper can do to reassure it will return.

Notices that this is temporary are on the performance page itself, Prosper's blog, and in emails to me,
not to mention several other users who've posted here after inquiring, who've all been told it'll return.

I don't think for a moment that they'd consider removing performance data:  it is a KEY differentiator.

Do you forget that they did the EXACT SAME THING with the Collections Performance page?

No, I remember that quite well, and I don't think it was handled properly, but, I do think this is different...

The operational decision to remove the collections performance page, rather than try to re-synch it, and
make it work with more CA's, was not a decision I liked, but it was, at least, one that I could understand.

I think they fully understand that provision of market-wide historical loan performance data is "absolutely"
essential for informational transparency, and that such transparency is critical to marketplace operations.

I do think they already understood that, but, just in case, like many other people here, I bitched at them,
just to make myself feel a little better (because, indeed, I did remember the incident that you mention...).

I agree.

Seems a bit early to be making a call like that...

It is several weeks later and they have given no ETA not only on this, but also on the fact that their new system is screwing up payments/reversals left and right with no fix anywhere in sight.

I bet that Prosper will ultimately tell us that historical returns are NOT relevant in light of 3.0, then 4.0, then ??
