Nomination for Moron of the week.
My nomination clearly meets the requirements highlighted from your header below.
Showed up on a thread with no vested interest, spread idiotic babble, produced no DD "Positive or Negative", was treated nicely, spread more babble, Hit "Moron Status" and returned to their home here on the Moron thread.
Look at your charter people.
X Y Zebra is a prime example of what you are against. Can't under stand your actions. Get a life and lay off the twinkies Zebra.
Thread Morons "Header"
I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread for a few reasons, namely:
1) Many people act like total jerks throughout the threads.
2) Trying to point that fact out or reason with them in the threads where they behave that way just takes up space that is better left to the thread subject, not to mention irritating some other normally rational people, which , in turn, sometimes makes THEM into jerks.
3) It might be enjoyable to gab and gossip about all the examples of jerkness and jerkosity we find around SI right here.
4) This can become a central repository for all to come and relate their tales of jerk spottings, complete with links to specific posts, so that we may all enjoy together.
5) My ego made me do it.
1st Post. Good points. Opinion welcomed

Any other ideas welcome!
What about this:
What if.... all these stories of conspiracies of short pants are mere fallacies...
What if.... the reason why penny stocks fall apart is because after the hype mission has been accomplished, then all those promises that the stock is going to be $10.... $12.... $15.... $18... or $20. plus..
Based on promise ______________________ (please fill in the blank as appropriate), never materializes due to ________________ (please fill in the appropriate excuse).
Then all of a sudden, first as a trickle, then as a river, and then as an ocean the sellers depress the stock to 1/2 or 1/3 or 1/4 or whatever..... Why ???
Because everyone and his cousin are SELLING..... (former holders buyers, "investors" etc. etc. etc.) SELLING.
More sellers than buyers = lower stock price.
As for the bid/ask reading on bb stocks..... yeah, yeah, yeah
Why are they good stocks, are the companies profitable, do they have earnings ?
Yes I know these are "story stocks"...... more like "soap opera story [flea] stocks"
Just the other side of the coin, as in what if....

Zebra. This could apply to life in general. According to your profile, you are afraid to give out information. Any opinion is welcomed here, just like to have an idea of where and how it was formed.

Wrong number counsellor. In other words I disagree, the where's and who's are hardly relevant to the subject at hand, as in:
"...the proof of an idea is not to be sought in the soundness of the man fathering it, but in the soundness of the idea itself. One asks of a pudding, not if the cook who offers it is a good woman, but if the pudding itself is good."
Explaining further, the idea is there, it is up to you to analyze it, evaluate it and give its proper weight in terms of your own objectives, pursuits and the reality of the markets.
My reasons, or whereabouts, specific opinions etc. will not change the soundness of the idea or concepts, again, it is up to each individual to give the proper value it should have, likewise, it does not matter to me if you do so or not.
Your opinion of privacy obviously is different than mine, I am not a criminal and I have nothing to hide, such does not force me to disclose ANY information about me, if you disagree with my opinion, so be it, you can express it in the same media as I have.
Your statement suggesting I am afraid to give out information is baseless, as you have no evidence of anything other than the fact that I chose to put what I put. Just in case you have not noticed, those items are entirely optional.
Again, any of these concepts have NOTHING to do with what I express,
you are free to evaluate, it and take it or leave it....
Who knows !! I may be sitting in Mars sending Alien messages.
Your idea of "value of an idea" based on the whereabouts or specifics of the person issuing it is ridiculous. Why ?
I could be the biggest hard core financial criminal and yet present an image of a responsible, decent and educated person....
Does that mean that you are going to blindly "follow" what I express, simply because I have created a false environment ?
Investing has to do with making money, no more and no less, whatever idea, concept, theory, system, etc. etc. etc. has to be proven one one single basis:
CAN IT MAKE ME MONEY ?
Anything else is mere noise, and you and only you can make such a decision. It is YOUR responsibility to decide the buy, sell, hold, or do nothing whatever stock/commodity is in question, nobody else's.

Save your philosophical discussions for another forum, we're interested in facts here. And the fact is, there has been no insider selling and there is an ongoing SEC investigation to determine exactly why the stock is where it is.
Me ? a philosopher ? nah I do not think so....
"Philosophy consists very largely of one philosopher arguing that all other philosophers are jackasses. He usually proves it, and I should add that he also usually proves that he is one himself."
As for facts.... Well I would start asking SI if they could attach the quote page to the bottom of each post in this thread... you know, as they do in "other forums"....

Don't be discouraged by the quietness of the stock, the calm before the storm is obvious, and those who have taken the time to conduct their due diligence and recognize the quality of the management team and their intent will hold for as long as necessary to hopefully see double-digits on AFRI. GO AFRI!?

Think XY Zebra meets and exceeds all requirements listed in your header. We tried to be nice and not be a moron, XY Zebra refused to accept the fact we were not bothering anyone.
Thanks.
