Deleted for the sake of deplomacy, but I sent it via PM. P.S> I am going to ask you kindly though to refrain from further insults. If you are polite to others you will realize there are people here with a great deal of knowledge willing to share. But if you keep going at this pace, you will gain nothing from us.

Your initial enthusiasm for the stock and the market appropriately raised doubt about your intention ie. spammer, cheerleader etc. At that point a couple of observations were made with regard to the company and sector by a person who is in the business. On top of that this person has been part of this group for years. So when assessing credibility he wins hands down.....expecially over a newcomer. Then came the market analysis by the man of poultry. His message was an attempt to save you from your own ignorance when he pointed out that we had seen a short squeeze rather than an actual rally. You then proceeded to challenge him. Keep in mind he is another thread veteran and has probably forgotten more about the markets than you will ever know. Here are your remarks These big cap and other tech stocks are WAY too cheap (I don't care what the idiot analysts are telling you). AND Which index gained the most today, you guessed it, the Nasdaq 100!!! He did respond to your sarcasm with sarcasm but he added his "vision" in his final remark of the post by saying - I was simply pointing out a fact. A rally and a short squeeze are two different things. Don't go long your KING at a top. This IMO was good advice but as another poster pointed out - it's your money to invest as you wish. Your response was - I hope you get your shorting butt burned pal, and good!! Now I don't know what your experience on SI has been but I don't think that jumping onto a new board, acting like bullish fool and then insulting the thread members is generally a good way to start. Keep in mind your insults were directed at people who didn't share? That's right - YOUR VISION. Now you call MPH a "pompous ASS" and suggest that you don't expect everyone to agree with your opinion? If thats the case why did you get so aggressive when they didn't? Clearly you DO expect everyone to agree with you otherwise you wouldn't have gotten so defensive. So do yourself a favor - quit while you're ahead before MPH feeds you your balls.

<<What a pompous ASS you are!! Saying I expect everyone to share my vision on a stock, after placing a standard message on SI. Unbelievable!!! I'd love to spar with you more, but as a friend once told me: "What have you gained by besting a FOOL???". Nas Drovya!!! >> ROFLMAO! If you weren't trying to make everyone share your vision on JDSU, and insulting anyone who failed to agree with you, then it's unclear exactly what you think you were doing. But I'll leave that to you to figure out, along with why you're underwater on JDSU, WDC, VTSS, ONNN, etc.

As a mother's day present, the thread has decided to purchase you a 3 month course in reading comprehension with Sylvan Learning Centers. I'd suggest you re-read the following portion of mph's post to you: Just don't expect everyone else to share your "vision MPH did not state that you, in fact, expect everyone to share your vision. Her words were more of a caution that you should not get your hopes up that everyone will share your vision. Big difference. Good luck with your investing. It appears you need it.

You have provided nothing productive, despite repeated requests to either clean up or leave you refuse to get it through your head no one likes someone that goes around tossing insults. I am sorry about your market woes, I have stated that publicly, but they are YOUR problems. Sure you STILL have the PRIVILEGE to post insults over here but you have now lost any bit of integrity you may have gained. You should be truly ashamed of the way you handled yourself over on our thread. You LIE, you INSULT, you have no integrity, and you take away from the integrity of our thread by provoking others to engage in your juvenile insult posting game. Get a fresh diaper or get lost. P.S> I have never before posted a PM in public, but I tried to resolve this thing with the least amount of humiliation to you, but you threw it back in my face. SO be it!

Why are you so hostile? And I'm also curious about another thing. Are you a liar as well, like R*1? #reply-17451069 Your reply #reply-17451271 However, just two weeks ago #reply-17394943 Glad to hear this from someone who has DSL. I'm still in the stone age with AOL ISP service, but at this point I'm willing to remain at the slower speeds. I'd have to say at this point your level of integrity is nearing that of R*1 which if you are not aware of, it's close to zero. Ah, the heck with it, it's late, my apologies to the thread regulars for muddying up the waters. ``````````````````````````````````````````` Well, that was the public message I deleted. In all honesty, I do not enjoy getting into flaming wars with others. It rarely accomplishes anything productive. If you want to be one of the productive participants on our thread, I and others would welcome your involvement. Trust me, it's still not too late- but I would begin by apologizing to mph. Otherwise, we're going to be locked into a no win situation. I don't know about you, but I have better things to do with my time than waste it fighting about trivial things. Hey, we're all here on SI trying to make a buck. Why fight amongst ourselves? I hope you will have a change of heart after reading this message and try and start over again on our thread. Again, there are some very savvy traders as well as investors on the thread. You stand much to gain or lose. I suppose that's about all I have to say at this late hour.
