Starting to look like that, isn't it ... sad, because mmmary does seem capable of doing better ... imagine if all that energy was turned to actually finding and outing scams, instead of trying to get famous nipping at Bob's ankles ... i think this points up a fundamental flaw in the post-deletion method of idiocy control - the evidence of morality/sanity breaches for which posters are terminated is gone, unavailable for public view .... me, i'd leave up the worst stuff, just to keep the record straight, each poster developing his/her history with each word they type, and preserved for posterity entire and whole ..... i happened to be lurking iHub some when mmmary was talking herself out of a membership, so have a sense of what went down, but much of it would be deleted now, probably Better the SI method - rule with a light hand, but always with one admin finger on the Poof button, and all posters typing in full knowledge of that fickle finger of flick ..... maybe, i dunno, just glad i don't have to decide all this stuff Stupid of her to get on Matt's case, what was he, sixteen or something back in his pumpster days ... so he fell in with the wrong crowd when he first came to the net, so what, geeez i've got socks twice his age and they're not all that bright either ... look at what he says now, he's got some pretty intelligent statements on record in re discussion, definitely a whole hell of a lot smarter than i was at eighteen .... that guy from Montréal shamed one of my countries, so what, he's history now, didn't get his way and does not constitute a permanent black mark against iHub

I said I don't care about how much $ they make I didn't say I didn't care about their biz plan. I do care about their plans for ihub. I believe they are running ihub to make money through ads, signups.... I believe they are doing it at the expense of the investor. I bet a lot of people lost money on SEVU because of matt allowing goelo to delete all negative posts. They are allowing promoters to hype stock scams to investor readers on ihub. If an honest negative poster posts some negative bits, they will boot him off the site when the promoters complain. They will delete his messages until it's pointless to even post over there. That is what I care about. They don't enforce the TOU fairly as they say they will. That is hypocritical.
