Pugs, Mike Kugler was not in violation of any statute as you imply. He was not "yanked" from posting on SI for any violation. He stopped posting soley because of the harassment of you and others toward his company and it's other employees. Not many companies would have the time and resources necessary to respond to every complaint made, even when they are not valid complaints. I do believe he and his company were upset at seeing the names of it's employees posted on SI. Posting the names of employees of the companies that SI members work for and officials of the SEC and NASD is not good form, if you want to further your cause.
15C....does not apply only to brokers, it applies to "anyone" as tonto has shown:

That appears to cover it very well...now about those superbowl teams... |
