Hello Kerry,

>>As far as these gurus coming to chat boards to set up shop, hey! it comes with the territory<<

>>...People not taking responsibility for their own bad judgements really irk me."<<

People really need to ask themselves the questions wrt investment chat boards....what/who do the boards represent and why am I reading them, and even more importantly, if you cannot understand the answer to the first question, why are you placing your money at risk?

I'm beginning to feel that much of the criticism of the "boards" have more to do with individual investors doing as you stated in your post NOT doing their own DD, then wondering what went wrong and whom to blame after the fact.

The chat boards are a wonderful medium for interacting with other investors, gleaning insight into the mindset of other investors, gauging market "sentiment"....

Beyond that, two words apply....

Caveat emptor.
