The real question is this - Why the Abuse? I came to this thread because your own stated premise is "this thread is for day and position trading along with trading tips....leave your attitude at the door because this is a clean site free of any fights, scams and pump and dumps." From your description of this thread, it seemed to me that there were some no-shit stock traders here who were interested in discussing stocks and would welcome some ideas and info in exchange for the same. In response, I posted this comment about BIDS and other general observations, because I thought it was interesting that so many little stocks have come back to life. I was seeking some opinions as to what the other traders thought. I missed trading BIDS on the way up and I thought if the conditions were right, then perhaps it could be time to play it again - and I was looking for opinions from others to gauge sentiment towards BIDS and other spec stocks. This was my first post - Message 11212210 The first reply I received from you was this - intelligentspeculator.com If this is your exclusive domain, then you should state that in the description of your thread and let people know that you call the shots here for your flock and state that explicitly. Perhaps start your own club at Yahoo! clubs.yahoo.com You may think I'm trying to get out from answering the real question that you're interested in, such as why am I posting? Am I here to get viewers? Personally I am only interested in attracting people who already know how to trade, preferably technical traders, so that we can exchange ideas and input, and those are few and far between. As I said before, my site is not suitable or useful for most people from SI, or anywhere else for that matter. The promotion aspect is a non-issue as it is not a commercial venture. People don't want to learn how to trade for themselves; they want the easy thing, to be told by a guru what to buy and when. That's fine by me, and you're clearly the guru on this thread. But please, why the hail of bullets and blazing gunfire? My site is listed in Yahoo! It's a CNBC Cool Site. We've been featured in magazines and newspapers. Exposure on your thread is but a drop in the bucket: Don't flatter yourself.
