I could probably do a most-requested quote thing. I'm not sure how it'd be helpful, but I'm sure you folks could figure out a way. I'm frankly a bit disappointed that SIS (SI Sentiment) is getting such slow uptake. I figured it could be such a great indicator, even if a contrarian one. But maybe it'd see better usage if I add to it. Like the ability to edit your most recent rating rather than only giving a rating once every 24 hours. Or possibly a way to give ratings without having to post to do so, although that'd run contrary to a strong secondary purpose of it; increasing posting volume on stock-specific boards. And keeping your most recent rating active until a specific (longer than 24 hours) amount of time has passed or you choose a no-vote or another rating. And maybe on general market-related boards, such as this one, allowing entry of up to 10 tickers and a rating for each. One of the site reviews not too long ago spoke rather highly of SIS. Just so y'all know, we recently restructured a lot of job duties, taking a lot of stuff off my shoulders that are second-order influences on the bottom line so I can devote more time to first-order things. Number one being ad sales. But second being programming. It's been too long since any really meaningful features have been added, and I'm about 20% of the way done with one I really like and know everyone's going to find really useful. It's one that's been requested a number of times and I've got it all figured out. It's just really tedious banging out all the code for it.
