Hey I'm all for it, and I never meant to imply that you were either guilty or innocent of anything! Dog, you know that you and I have never spoken aside from posts on this thread, so I cannot make an educated opinion on anything you do. But, whether you did it or not, it is still wrong to post PMs in public unless both parties consent. But hey, this is my opinion only, and shouldn't mean diddly squat to anyone else here. Some may have a different view, and see no problem with it. A fight free week on SI sounds great to me, and what better day to start than Sunday. We have already lost one of the best DD'ers to SI, and I would hate to see anyone else go too. Just my opinion, Again, :-) Binder

<attack free week> Well it's a great thought BD but I think the damage is done on all the penny stocks and the penny chat threads. Remember at the start of the year how easy it was to make money on the BB stocks? Now it's seems impossible, nobody trusts anyones word anymore. I wish you all the luck because I know that many of you only choose to trade BB stocks but for me I will never touch one again.Maybe things will change back to the way it used to be but I doubt it. The stock and personal bashing will go on and on . I admit that I did my share towards you and a few stocks which I now regret because all it did was waste time and taint the stocks. Look at mtei, the stock is at 5 cents!

Big Dog, This is what it is all about; respect for others opinions. <<We are not bosom buddies but we respect each other's right to an opinion.>> Respect, and self control is the true mark of good debating. For one reason or another not only this board but this NATION has stooped to indulging in degrading attacks on any who differ with their "politics" or opinions. There will always be those who feel debasing others makes them stand taller; the opposite ensues. Personally, I feel it relates to an overall lowering of standards as a nation and individuals. We have lost respect for our leaders of this nation and our fellow man as well. We have become a dog eat dog society. This is sad to be sure but to think we can change human nature in a week or ever is just wish~full thinking. Having said that Big Dog; I commend you and Tim for having mutual respect one for another. It takes real men or women to see the error of their ways and to correct it. :o) Developing a sense of humor could do no harm. If everyone would simply READ what has been written and not read into things what they "think or feel" was written it would go a long way towards correcting the deplorable state of all threads through out the Internet.

Big dog, I don't have a problem with a no attack week or a no attack month, what would make this much easier, is to get rid of certain posters that SI has recieved MEGA-TONS of complaints on, these are organized groups of people who have stated on numerous occasions that they don't own the stock that they are bashing or more precisely they don't own ANY bb's stocks at all, so am I suppose to believe that these people who post ALL day long and ALL night long on various threads don't have an agenda here, OK, there is the other side of that the pump-n-dumpers, and they do need to be exposed, but this others group main function is to create doubt fear and panic to force people to sell and drive the stock down, NOW, who does that sound like they work for?....I'm not posting that much anymore because this whole SI is becoming useless, I do my dd along with others to make my decision, and just like in "real" life some of them work out, and some of them don't.....

ATTACK FREE WEEK ON SI Now we are getting some where. As always, I've valued your picks. I use em as a starting point to do my own DD. If I like em, then I get em. If I win, great. If I lose, not so great but at least I have no one to blame but myself. Keep those picks rolling
