OT: Bob, Tony Tony does use literary license liberally. I will say that he does have a "way with words." As for the "paid wh***" comment, I believe it's partially true on some levels. You are making money from the posts of lying cheating stock promoters. You get money from the ads which is based on the traffic/clicks from the promoter's posts. The more people viewing the lying promoters posts, possibly relying on it and losing money, the more money you make. Promoters also pay to post there nowadays besides ads. If there's a promoter going crazy on a stock and lots of people are reading it, you are making money on each viewing of the lying promoter's post. There are more promoters than bashers by far over there. The ratio is lower there than anywhere else except agora. Why? Because the promoters email matt and whine or they all band together and start TOU wars against people, like me, an honest negative poster. My every word was scrutinized to the nth degree with the hope that they can find a way to somehow make it seem that it "detracts from the value of the community" which can be interpreted as anything. Any post can be deleted for any reason based on the TOU. Matt uses that loophole to get rid of any post or poster that gives him a headache. If he has ten promoters whining to him against one "basher," he will take the easy way out and get rid of the basher, as he did. "We do reserve the right to monitor or remove any post, at any time, that is in violation of the User Agreement or clearly detracts from the value of the community, from the boards without notice. We also reserve the right to terminate any member's membership at any time, without notice." A last note. When you needed a token black in the country club, you begged me to come over, said my research was great. When you didn't need the token black any longer or it's not worth the effort because of all the complaints from teh paying members, you kick me out and say my research has always stunk. Funny how you change your tune so easily all the time.
