Alan, if a group of investors sets up a thread of its own, and sets up rules for participation, I have no problem with that. If a person comes into that group and posts something that is not according to their rules, and is courteously reprimanded and asked to conform, I have no problem with that, either.

If that person decides to stay, and refuses to abide by the code of conduct of that group, it would seem to me that at some point he would be in violation of the SI Terms of Use because his purpose would be to harass, and he could also be in violation if his posts are abusive or "otherwise objectionable". Thus while I don't think you need to agree with the group, if you continue to post material that the members of a thread find objectionable you could at some point find that you are also in violation of the SI Terms of Use and therefore subject to discipline by SI.

In any case, everything works better if we all just get along voluntarily.

Carl
