two sides to every story (or) Chris & Bux "off sides"
.
Dear Christopher,
.
Please excuse me if the "message" i append to this post
seems incorrect or taken out of context, or simply does not
deliver the message you want. But then your post is not about
a message delivered, but that same old same attempt by those
whom joined Silicon Investor and/or InvestorsHub AFTER reading
AND agreeing to the TOU which includes a statement saying that
they can be changed at any time by management(currently owners,)
and your acceptance places the decide for you to be "happy"
and remain an active member, on YOU, not the site.
.
But no, its the same old same cry by those like you that want
to reverse the order and try and "force" the web site to agree with
and carry out YOUR instructions of context & content of site's existance.
.
"...there are two sides to every story.
So I hope you or Matt will post the other side
and let the members decide... we'll decide."
.
Yes Virginia,
.
BobZ & Sheriff Matt do not take sides, but run a business
that allocates space & means on a message board web site
to allow those that have payed, to present their sides.
.
Dear Christopher,
.
Most all did not read Bux's "too" long post to BobZ to reached
what is the closing argrument, i place it here to make a note
of a heads-up to anyone thinking that your request for a reply
can be met with anything except an "off sides" and not have
these two message boards slip slide down a slipperly slope
into that place where the inmates make the rules.
.
[start.]
... this is Matt's way of snuffing out posters...
he [Matt] used to be one [hypesters] himself.
... [has] no place [in] forum [to] openly discuss issues...
It's really quite frustrating after I spent a considerable sum
for the privilege of joining Ihub and now I realize I have wasted
the subscription money as I can only post at the whim
of the 19 year old moderator [using] gutter talk as he gets
his jollies off and then ends the dialogue... Bux

Chris, thanks for your interest. It's much better to have someone like yourself who is interested in what actually happened than someone like Doug A K who has a long history of assuming Matt can do no wrong.

I doubt Matt or Bob will respond as they really don't have a case. I know you would assume there is another side to the story but I have told all that I can think of in a balanced manner. You can check my over 800 posts on Ihub, I stay on-topic and above the name-calling and personal attacks. If you read the post that got me suspended you will see that I was simply pointing out that the share price drop was likely attributable to the fact that Jim finally "came clean" last weekend that he had sold all his IDCC back in July. I hope it's ok to say "came clean" here on SI ;-)

And, sure enough, the share price is still dropping and I am denied use of the service that I paid to use. I have no real recourse either as a lawyer would cost far more than I paid for the membership in the first place. Very frustrating.

And I hope it's Matt who responds to it. I'm unfamiliar with recent events at iHub because I've been neck deep in SI programming for quite some time.

I made a decision. It's not open for debate by the members (and certainly not SI's members). He violated the rules, I removed the post. That's it.
