From Doug A K to SI, I'am now back from my 1 week suspension.
A week ago I e-mailed you, but as yet no reply.
Three days ago I e-mailed you asking if you received my first e-mail,
but no reply.
So, here is the e-mail I sent you the day after my suspension.
Please reply. Thanks. Doug

Mr Metals posted this on the IPMCF thread
www2.techstocks.com

Like someone pouring salt into another person's open wound.
Mr Metals does not hold any stock in the IPM company.
The IPM company is in Bankruptcy Court for Chapter 11.
The IPM shareholders on this thread are trying to collect the
10% share votes so that a shareholders meeting can be called.
The management of IPM put a wall of silence around them,
and only inform the shareholders thru BREAKING NEWS like
off NASDAQ, off CDN, Chapter 11.

Now it seems that its ok for Mr Metals to post on the IPMCF
thread a post that causes IPM shareholders to feel pain,
but I am not allowed to go to a thread where Mr Metals posts
and to ask that thread the question:
(this is my post on those threads)
>>>
Mr Metals, I have a question for you about the company on this thread.
If you did not own any stock in this company,
and the company went into Bankruptcy Court under Chapter 11,
then would you also post here the same type of post
as you did on the IPMCF thread ?

What's going on w/ IPMCF?
They're trading on the NYSE under the symbol CHAP11....LOL
LOLSOHARD.
Mr Metals
<<<
Now please tell me why my post on a thread,
which is a question to that thread,
that does not defame that thread,
but only points out information to that thread,
that they have on that thread a person who does
a LOL to another thread in Chapter 11,
to ask themselves the question,
what type of person is Mr Metals
that will do a LOL to a thread,
and could he someday do a LOL to this thread
if he owned no shares and the company of this thread
went into chapter 11.
I did not go to each of Mr Metals thread and do a LOL
at the thread or post garbage or defame the thread.
I did a legal post to a thread.
Now I totally agree that many if not all threaders
on that thread see my post as having nothing to do
with what they are concerned with.
OK, then it looks like all that is needed to have a
SI member suspended for a week is to have a certain
number of SI members send you a message asking this member
to be suspended, and the content of the post
done by this member is not relevant.
OK, please let me know what this number is,
I'am sure I can get easly enough threaders on the IPMCF
thread to have many SI members, including Mr Metals,
suspended from SI for a week.
All thats needed is any post by them,
content not relevant,
since in my case Mr Metals posted a post to cause pain,
and all I did was point this out, and I got punished.
Please let me know the number.
Thank you
Doug A K
