Surething, What is your opinion? From the Post: >>>>> Battered, but unbowed, Zetmeir still posts messages on Canadian resource stock threads. "For due diligence, the in-depth quality of the investors on the Internet is far superior to what the brokerage houses are doing." But he adds: "SI should absolutely forbid pseudonyms. If they don't want to post it with their real name, then don't post it."<<<<< I have to respectfully disagree with this statement. Internet Chat Group "NICKNAMES" or "HANDLES" go way back to when chat groups first started. I have been using chat groups, on the Net and or on-line services & BBS's for almost 10 years. New people that have only been on the Net for a couple years don't have to understand that nicknames are the NORM in chat groups. At least that is my belief. It seems to me that it was a off take of the CB Radio handle. Besides, that is how I got my nickname, while talking on the CB, someone I was talking to said "Boy You Are A Cheeky Kid." I personally like my nick name, opposed to my real name, I think nicknames are COOL.
