Here is my non-professional analysis of this situation. You were terminated by Silicon Investor, for what ever reason(s). So I suspect many sent comments to SI regarding this action and then SI decided to hold a vote to see if you should be reinstated. It turned out that the vote was in your favor, and you are now a full member of Silicon Investor once again. Well, many people see this as unequal justice. Just like in real life, when a celebrity or wealthy person is in trouble with the law, they seem to get the better deal, whereas the "nobody" gets the book thrown at him / her. So there is resentment by some on SI that your popularity played a major roll getting you reinstated. Others that have been terminated before you didn't get this special treatment. Members see this as unfair, and are directing anger towards you. I believe you knew you were going to get heat from some members after being reinstated. Then we have the issue of the other chat sites, your private site and wallstreetstand.com that are being promoted on SI. I believe some are wondering why these sites are being promoted after you have been reinstated. In addition why remarks like "Don't they know that you could squash SI like a bug if you started your own site" ( #reply-11519290) , have being posted. You told me Wallstreetstand is free, so the question is why do you stay on SI and promote those sites? It can't be that others can't afford the private site to receive your trading calls, as wallstreetstand is FREE. Is SI a recruiting ground for new members? I believe some on SI see this as a stab in the back / slap in the face to SI and it's members. Some also are upset at your abrasive remarks to others, I don't really see that as a major problem, I am a Cheeky Kid, I call it the way I see it too. This post was not meant to humiliate, cause embarrassment, etc, it's sole purpose was to inform you as to what I believe is the root of all the heat you are getting right now on various threads. This has been my opinion.
