Circle, You were not wrong. We are a collective group of people that are searching for the truth about investing and the companies we invest in ( or short, whichever the case might be). And you are correct, your investments are none of my business. The history of your posts, and the threads you post on, much to the dismay of most of the paid shills that post on SI, is my business. This is because it shows whether or not this is the only thread you are posting on, and therefore whether or not you may be a paid shill. In a lot of cases, the people that post on only one thread have a reason to do so. Especially when they pay their money to be a member and do so. You are also correct that we are searching for the truth. Will I find the truth from someone that joins SI as a result of an admitted short seller that posts negative information about a company? I strongly doubt it. You didn't answer my most important question. " Is this the only company you own stock in, or the only one you are worried about?" <<<<<<<<<< I look forward to posting on other stocks when and if I have something intelligent to say. Then again, based on my experience so far, the cynical game of posting on these threads seems to be over my head.>>>>>>>>>>>>. I beg your pardon? My dictionary defines "cynical" as " Scornful of the motives or virtue of others; bitterly mocking; sneering". In my opinion, you were more cynical of Auric's comments than I was of your's. <<<<<<<<<<Sorry for being such a naif.>>>>>>>>>>>>> Naif?? I don't consider your messages as from someone that was acting as a "naif". A naif is almost the same as a nail. And in my opinion, you have not "nailed" anyone, certainly not Auric. And Circle, again, saying that you hope for the price of a stock that you own goes down in price so that you can buy more is another sign of a paid shill. I own at present about ten companies long, and one short. The only one I want to go down is the one I am short in. Good luck, and have fun, if you can, Phil
