Request to have people stop using the term "+EV"

can someone enlighten me with an example of -EV folding??

how can a fold result in anything except 0 EV ?

dsaxton,
+EV is typically used on this forum alot to describe a play as correct or incorrect ( profitable or not ) as Im sure you know...

maximizing EV is exactly what it sounds like. I think we have the proper vocab here dont we?

a passive fish who flops a royal flush may call $2 bets in a 100NL game down with the nutz. This is far from the best play, but its still +EV.
