Oh, this question is easy By far the best topic on CB is PsychDoc's Seminars.
These seminars are CB's "BSCR" (Bachelor of Science in Credit Repair ). They lit the light bulb over my head and were the NUMBER ONE reason for me being able to delete over 45 baddies from my reports including a Foreclosure TL from 2 different mortgage companies.

The seminars should be "required reading" for all newbies and is an essential class for graduating from newbie school.

My favorite topic on CB is simply how to dispute the negative items on your credit reports. I was able to go from 550 FAKO's to 680 in just a few months at 2 burueaus but removing negative IIB accounts.

My Guess is ''whether to buy FICO or STEAK''.....

The topics I have liked the best so far are those that revolve around credit deals such as 0% BT or FICO discounts.

There's so many favorites to choose from!

I would say "Psychoc's Seminars" has been the most helpful. http://creditboards.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=152541

It gave me the "AH-HAH!" moment I was looking for.

BTW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CB!

I would say anything Amex. The read is usually quite interesting.

any topic helping to get my FICO score up!!

Every topic is my favorite

THIS ONE!!! *LOL*

we dont qualify

My favorite are the SUCCESS stories!!!

My fav are the amex threads, loves to see how they invent new ways to shoot themselves in the foot.

Junami

I liked the thread where Ken the realtor (wasn't that his name?) sued that POS JDB pro se.

My favorite topic and the one that helped me the most is any thread on the 1-2 punch which is what helped me to get all baddies deleted.

I also loved the Psych Dpc transcripts but I consider that more than just one topic.

Can't believe I have been on this board for 4 of the 6 years! Happy Birthday, CBs!

Hard to choose, but here are the top two:

Federal, legal stuff: FDCPA, FCRA, etc.

PsychDoc's Seminars




Happy Birthday CreditBoards.

Any topic that will show and guide this smart old man into correcting the mistakes and ignorance of that young dumb boy. (the boy grew up)

Happy B-day Creditboards! It's great to have this contest for all the non-football-watching folks today.

Favorite topic is about people facing BK because of big-time medical bills. Helping folks realize that it is a great relief to have a fresh start and start over, it's our legal right and is not shameful.

PhyscDOC's

Amex'es like to see the drama that folds in those.

Juny..........

And of Course you cant forget the DRT thread..........

While I do come here for all the credit expertise being shared,
my favorite topics are those that revolve aeround peoples psycho family members or neighbors...

makes my life seem "oh so normal!"

The "where not to use your shiney new credit card" thread. It's the easiest one in the world to search for when I want it because of the misspelling of shiny. But that's not why I love it - it's just one of those super-useful informational threads that make me think about the use of credit in a whole new way.

Junami !!! That fateful day gained me my first decent sized credit line post BK. Its still holding on strong so far.

my favorite was the trinity chick who got busted in her own thread for mortgage and welfare fraud

My favorite topic was in Medical when WhyChat guided me to help get
all my baddies deleted. Thanks again WhyChat and to all CB and Happy Birthday!

I need to find that one, it sounds oh so drama......

it was classic

I have to say I love the threads where people complain about there in-laws (aka out-laws). I also love the crazy neighbors drama!!! Just like reality TV - but not.

I have a special place in my heart for WhyChat and Pryan because without there guidance and advice 3 yrs ago when my FICO was tanked at 509 with over 30 baddies on each report. I thought my tiny world was coming to an end - today I just closed on my first house, paid cash, average score 750, got married (to someone with no debt and good credit) and live debt free! Oh what a feeling.

I have to go with Junami, too.

It was before my time, but I've been sucked into that thread two or three times, and it's always a mega-time-waster.

Who doesn't love a good tragedy?

AMEX threads, too.

If I had to narrow it down to only one, so difficult, I would have to say Dixie's guide to surviving and winning lawsuits. When the average person is facing a suit, mainly for the first time, it is can be nerve wracking and a person can feel overwhelmed, powerless and alone.
Dixiedrifter has done an excellent job in that thread to help a person feel more empowered. Also a nod to the others that give their time in that forum, such as Why Chat, Hoapres and others.



The runner ups...
Anything by Why Chat, PsychDoc's Seminars and Junami (where I also received my best CL that is still going strong and growing)

truth be told i am all over these boards hunting for information but i would have to say Psychoc's Seminars They seem to have the most info packed into one spot

My favorite topic would be AMEX related--either CLD or how to get one in the first place!

psych docs seminars were the best info and also why chat. Happy Birthday CB!

My favorite topic is any and all regarding American Express. Just the mention or posting rather of the acronym "AMEX" emits a firestorm of fury and frustration for some.
I remember not too long ago that it was Crap1 that use to irritate a few here including myself back when they were mostly subprime.


Happy Birthday CB!!! Thanks for helping me turn my life around!!!

My favorite topics are the ones that tell me that all is not lost as far as rebuilding credit goes!

When everyone here help me through the difficult BK period, losing my home, ect... I had back in 2005. Plus, all the help I received with my daughter and all my problems I have had and still having.

Without CB I'd probably be six feet under by now. CD literally saved my life from the deep despair of BK and depression.

I'm doing better now and I thank everyone here at CB.

The great "ID" debates. The arguments are intriguing.

Letters to CA's.

Happy B-day CB

I can't get enough of the two massive TX threads in the credit forum. I've read those two threads numerous times. They are enlightening and inspirational.

Any topic with advice from pryan because he's so knowledgeable and helpful. I must admit I kinda love the Jack Attack thread, too.

(I know, I know, I hardly post but I DO read, lol.)

Has to be anything around Chp 13 BK, since that is how I first found CB almost two years ago.

Psychdoc's transcripts for their usefulness. And for fun, there's always the GF madness like MrsDRT and the old Chubroach threads.

Junami had to be the "craziest" thread, EVER, on CB..............lol.

snork and rom i know it has nothing to do with credit

My favorite topic is anything to do with OC's cat.

Hey, you didn't say it had to be credit related.

I like them all. I have learned so much since finding this forum

any topic about credit.

T'was indeed a CB classic, that one.

For my own answer, I'd vote for LadynRed's pinned thread in the BK forum on post-BK reporting...that one has been a big help.

I also fondly remember certain GF classics such as hlburi's "Abort! Abort!" carwash mishap, and the various Chubroach threads. Then there was the OC-vs-Caramel Pinay verbal showdown...that one had me laughing out loud...at work.

I'd like to sound like a grown up, and say something profound about PsychDoc's seminars, but...

MrsDrt wins.
