My post:

>>You don't even have to be a short. Just post a fact or a question that has
negative implications and you'll catch flak.<<

Todd's response:

Sorry, but I think your statement is naive. IF you have followed this thread and
understood why there is the resentment then you might back off.

Most of the notorious shorts on this thread consistently post incorrect information
that takes all of two minutes to determine the accuracy of this information. So,
because of the shorts inability to provide consistent, factual information "they" get
thrashed - and deservedly so, as should be the case with traders who come in here
yelling "short squeeze".

There are posters who have legitimate questions or concerns about Iomega and/or
Iomega products who have received courteous in-depth responses from IOM
longs, which are then accompanied by "Because Iomega management engages in
criminal activity" with no real substance as to why by the shorts.

So yes, flak is thrown at the more notorious shorts because of their consistent
dishonesty, not because of blind loyalty.

My response to Todd:

Todd, I find some of what Rocky says bears taking into consideration, some calls for a grain of salt and some I completely disagree with.

However, I feel that the response to Rocky should be to counteract each point that you disagree with by presenting your own viewpoint. Many posters do just do that. But there are others who insult and demean him as a person. I find that more objectionable than Rocky's posts.
