Oh really??? Is this something that you decided on your own or did your read somewhere in "the rules"?

I say that a message board is anything that the posters and management make of it. I enjoy a nice tug of war between longs and shorts, with occasional emotional rantings. Not that what I prefer should be taken as anything more than just my humble opinion. I say don't try to elevate your opinion above that of others. Everyone deserves the right to express themselves, within the rules established by those who manage the board. Right?

I find that the bias of postings, the level of emotion, and the level of posting activity, are all useful indicators. We help each other even when we don't agree, make perfect sense, or make accurate predictions. It's also quite entertaining at times.
