"from what I've seen in the past, SI has been impartial in their management of their boards. I haven't seen impartiality in the way you manage your boards. (All IMO, of course.)" It is much easier to be impartial when you are not under attack, lied about, etc. I am sure SI managers would lose their patience now and then if someone did to them what was done to me. I've seen them rule impartially many times. Of course, they admit it by allowing people to form their own moderated boards and kick people off and delete posts. I can show you boards where people are kicked off just for posting a different viewpoint than the board owner. I'll even give you a link to a board where the owner doesn't allow others to post and he wants you to contact him by the phone... I'm not sure if he is doing it now, but he would offer to sell you his stock picks for a hefty fee... so he's using SI for free advertising today. Another popular board here the moderator often boots people and jokes about it. Now and then I post something that makes him not look wonderful and I get warned via PM... he sells his advice via a 1-900 number.... So, I still think you make comments and judgements without much basis in easy to verify facts. Did you know SI deleted my post on THIS BOARD that linked to a summary of Bob's guest appearance posted by someone who was there? Bob Brinker, posting here as Don Lane, made a big stink, JustaStiff requested via PM that I ask SI to delete it, I said "only if he appologizes for calling me a bad name here." I didn't get an apology and the post was deleted. That was sure not an "impartial" ruling in favor of keeping Bob Brinker posting here. You've never seen me do things like that to keep people posting on my boards. Heck, I think I pissed some off like Will for not givng them special favors and asking them to stop calling people like dija shills... I think you just don't want to admit you enjoyed people harassing me on my forum and were sad to see them leave.
