Mr: bgtit: I really think you should contact a securities attorney about your posting, if you are getting paid.
I believe that you must put the disclaimer in every time you post if you are.
Here is the rule that ron got in trouble for, and I think that if you just check, and find out you may save yourself a lot of trouble, if your situation is the same as ron's.
It cannot be denied that he is in trouble, so anybody that comes close to violation should make sure they CYA.

to employ any device, scheme, or artifice to defraud, or

I high-lighted certain things.
As I said, I am not an attorney, so my emphasis may be wrong.

It is your neck, not mine so you must do what you feel is right.
Remember the people on a BB chat board are not the ones to give an "okay" or "not okay",
so with that in mind, calling a security attorney should resolve the problem for you, if there is one.
Good luck.
Not meant as a flame, just meant as some
possible avoidence advice.
