How would everyone feel if I set up a simple bulletin board for FNTN discussion only. It wouldn't be as slick as SI but I could assign passwords and revoke the passwords of anyone who took part in rediculous banter. Positive and negative posts would be welcome. Your, yourself, Chinmoy Roy would have to maintain an unbiased position in FNTN for that to work. Otherwise you will get a slanted discussion fabricated from the longs about what you want to hear.

Chinmoy Roy, I would strongly discourage you from trying to open a private thread. I don't think you or anyone could maintain objectivity (nothing personal). Regardless of how good a person you are, if you are long a stock, you won't want to discuss negative information. Conversely if a shorter tried to run a thread, he/she would deam every unsubstantiated positive opinion, "hype". The whole point of SI is to allow everyone an opportunity to discuss the merits and risks of various stocks. People, you can't force a stock price up by filtering out legitimate questions. And no person should have the authority to determine what questions are legitimate. If FNTN succeeds without disproportionate dilution, then the shareholders will make money. If FNTN fails, regardless of promises made or shareholder expectations, then shareholders will lose money. Sorry to babble on, but it seems that we are discussing each other rather than FNTN too much. Frankly, I don't understand why a stock like FNTN gets so many posts. It simply doesn't merit 1,000 posts a week. I'm not bashing FNTN, I'm just saying there hasn't been any news. When there is news, then we should discuss it. In the absence of news, we should post factual DD and legitimate questions pertaining to FNTN. Kevin.
