I am really disappointed to see this from you, Bob:

Too civil would be breath-takingly boring. It's possible to have heated exchanges within the confines of this site's rules of engagement. If the exchange is boring, one or both sides may not be digging well enough for relevant facts or just holding them back.



It's incredibly ironic that you are green-lighting more heated exchanges which almost always dilute the "stock to noise" ratio on threads. How often are you called in to police a thread where traders and investors are calmly discussing the merits of a stock?

You aren't.

You get called in for the personal attacks, profanity and schoolyard behavior that detract from an interesting stock discussion but generate a lot of page views.

Run a search on the 50% Gains thread not long ago for our discussion on ALSC. Tell me that a civil discussion is less useful than the ECNC circus, TERN, etc.

Just wanted to register my public disagreement with encouraging Yahoo- and RB-like behavior on SI. Some of us view SI as a refuge from all that crap.

Thanks for your attention.
