Yes, IHUB does take shares for promotion on ihub

Stock promoters are even allowed to advertise on the site. They still enforce the TOU discriminately. I was kicked off for a "personal attack." My personal attack was calling a poster "hypocritical" because she had posted that she's long and strong then brags about selling in a fake run up. Go to ihub now and you can see horrible personal attacks, like the ones they used to post about me. They were allowed to post my home address, phone number, obscene names, threats...and they're all still there. They allow paid company promoters to post the same DD daily but if you're an honest negative poster, if you post it more than once EVER, you get booted. Just like agora though a tad more subtle. They try to use the TOU discriminately to get rid of negative posters. The promoters actually band together on ihub and threaten to leave if certain posters aren't tos'd. I was the one tos'd. They even made their threats on the public boards.

Bob's partner Matt takes shares from promoters to aid the promotion of total stock scams on the site. Bob knows this. He obviously approves of it as he allowed it. He still allows stock scam NPCT to be promoted by the company promoters on the boards without disclaimers. tsk tsk.

Negative hyperbole from you regarding something you can't possibly have already initiated a short position in?

Who are you, bud, and what'd you do with Anthony?

The Anthony I know wouldn't blast anything unless he could put some coins in his pocket from doing so.

Unless..... Maybe? Are you getting ready to roll out your own message board site? Or have already done so?

Ihub is a SCAM and the ones who run it are now paid whores like any tout service

You were saying?

I really don't have a lot to say except that if the allegations are true (especially about taking shares free or cheap to not expose companies -- a "reverse touting" or worse), it'll be the most disappointing thing I've encountered in my years as observer, sheriff, and combatant in this arena.
