Dear Darren: I guess part of the problem here is that you have a completely different perspective on how this thread should operate than most of the people who participate. Many of us post recommendations and try to give some reasoning as to why we feel a stock will move in the indicated direction. Obviously, some of those predictions are wrong. When someone like Lastshadow posts an entire list every day, there are bound to be failures. All of us understand that and evaluate everyone's recommendations based on our own knowledge of a stock, our opinion of the person posting, and the evidence supplied. What most of us find unacceptable are the hostile, insulting, or taunting postings that are critical of others recommendations. Mistakes and misjudgments are par for the course; we all make them. We don't really want to read the "boy were you stupid" postings. If you want to contribute your recommendations, we would be glad to read and evaluate them as we do everyone else's. Just don't waste bandwidth taunting any of us about our "mistakes" or bad calls. Walter High
