Certain members have more pull with SI Admin than others. That's life I guess. I was suspended for three days for waging a "personal attack" against a certain person whose name begins with "z". The personal attack? I referred to him as a moron...once (well maybe twice). In SI land, the truth is no defense.

I agree with your post. I was warned for stating that the Pretend Traders with their pretend real time trades were worshipping Onan. I was warned for this little attempt at highbrow humor. I was also suspended for three days for some unexplained reason. Yet vulgarity and profane attacks are common by this group of shorties and I'd add a couple of neo-fascist sounding posters. You know who they are. They call names, allude to posters backgrounds or perhaps ethnicity. This is all allowed. I think it's time for full disclosure and an investigation.

Actually, when the SEC gets involved in a stock, all hell usually breaks loose on a thread.:) You can find many threads of stocks that have been halted by the SEC and see the exact same thing happen. It would be weird not to find a heated exchange in the middle of a SEC investigation. But fortunately, the majority of the people move on to other investments, both long and short and carry on with their trading and learning about how the market works. A few though seem to stay back and grieve over profits lost.
