c.horn: **Off Topic** As are most of the posts on this thread...

Somewhere in between the chicken hearts and the paid touts falls the message board management that condones and enables this behavior by doing nothing to suppress it. Offensive posts are left for the public to read and the perpetrators of the offensive posts show no outward signs of any disciplinary action.

If anything it appears management runs interference for the chicken hearts by deleting posts of those that would defend themselves from the abuse and in some cases on going harassment. The message board management hides behind "we don't want to editorialize" when they refuse to delete and or reprimand, but that phrase never stops them when they "want" to delete or reprimand.

Take the following post for just one example. Clearly a Terms of Use violation, reported to SI Management before the market opened this AM. However, it still remains public...I could link many (many) more posts by these offenders (already reported to SI management, clearly in violation of the terms of use) that SI management has chosen to leave on the public board and outwardly seems to do nothing to the offenders.

Almost every post I have made publicly calling attention to the behavior of these guys has been deleted. None of my deleted posts violated a single SI Terms of Use rule, but still SI Management deleted my posts and leaves posts like the above for the public to view.

What is SI going to stand for in the future...Silicon Investor OR Septic tank Investor????

In addition, because I am standing up to these guys, SI Admin has used one of my posts (now deleted), to threaten to remove my posting privileges.

Regards,
LG

PS: Note there is not one single terms of use violation in this post. Will this post disappear before the offensive and obvious terms of use violating post linked above? I suspect so...
