So it's OK to take advantage of sheeple by pumping POS stocks? Pumping/bashing, posting positive/negative whatever you want to call it should all be allowed on a board provided it is expressed in accordance with the TOU of this site. It shouldn't be up to the MOD or their ASSistants to decide what is pumping or bashing but rather simply to enforce the site's TOU to maintain civility. You don't like what someone says? Off to Iggyville for them. Looking at stocks with rose colored glasses ain't such a hot idea so all opinions should be encouraged.

I think you misunderstood what I said, or I said it in a way that caused you to read what I said in a way I did not intend. Bottom line: we agree on this, 100%.

Having said that, perhaps multiple boards for a ticker should be allowed and whoever sets up that Board is the MOD and acts as the complete censor for that board with sole discretion who posts there. In other words, all boards are kinda like Private Clubs. Then the MOD can have all his/her pals/gals there to pat each other on the back what a great stock WXYZ(E) is and can remove all posts that don't adhere to the party line and BAN whoever the heck they want. Someone gets banned? No prob, bannee sets up another board for WXYZ(E) and posts whatever the heck they want. That way you can end up with 15 boards with the same ticker cause everyone wants to be the Big Kahuna ie MOD & have the power to ban, delete and generally control the discussion. There, problem solved...lol.

Here we disagree. I have no problem with multiple threads for the same ticker, obviously! I simply have a HUGE problem with two investment discussion incompatible features, no matter how many threads per ticker: banning and post deleting. Because both foster an environment which encourages scamming, one sided discussions, censorship, and are therefore incompatible with the free flow of investment discussion.

Best!
