Lee, I will post more to you later about this since I am in a rush, but in my opinion there is indeed a problem (actually many) First, it is a fact that at least 6 members of a thread were booted. Now, I know one of them personally, and the other 5 through the thread in question. All 6 have been suspended without explaination, and it (to the best of my knowledge) has not been made clear whether or not it is permanent or temporary. I see certain things in common and that is a mention of raging bull or in one case "raging- male bovine). I have personally put the raging bull link on my website, because they saw certain problems at SI and tried to change the way things are done. Adding an exclude feature is one of them. This feature was asked for by all those who were suspended in one way or another. SI ignored the pleas, and they wonder why people would be upset when a free service comes along and does it. I know they are watching every post I make, and to be honest with you I'm suprised I haven't been zapped, and for this I thank SI. I would also like to see a reply, one a little better than the private replies they have sent....those are a joke. I would post what I have seen but would like permission first from those who showed me. In fairness to SI, there are an enormous amount of posts to police...in fairness to posters and investors however, YOU SHOULD NOT KICK OFF 6 OF THE MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE POSTERS on a thread. It allows scum to run rampant and possibly do damage in an OTC BB enviornment. Still waiting for SI to explain. I am not bashing....I wan't answers or my money back. It's up to them. L. Michael
