Auric, we've taken up a lot of space on this thread today and I apologize to the readers looking for information. I see that you predicted another drop in price for IFLY tomorrow. Perhaps you will be lucky and be right once again, but IFLY will do just fine for those willing to hold. Anytime you want to debate the facts, or just learn the facts, I will be here, similarly to the incident where you misinterpreted the Barron's paragraph.

Well Auric, If you think it's God's work to go about calling people names like "punk" because they post a rational post to you.....or, even worse, some of the other name calling you have done without provocation.... I'm sorry for your misunderstanding about what God's work is...or I'm sorry about my ignorance of what God's work is. I vote for the first of my sorries... Trying to call your post on this thread as "God's work" is the most unbelievable things I have seen on any SI thread. JDP

Auric: You talk a good talk ( ok, an OK talk < G > ) but that is about it. You are WAY out of line calling IFLY the stuff you call them. Way out! I feel sorry for people who think 100% gain in 2 weeks is NOT GOOD!! Kinda makes ya wonder what kind of investor you are!! I don't even understand your logic! 100% GAIN!! 2 weeks!!! You could have BOUGHT IFLY when the Amigo's did their write up, waited two weeks and made a VERY Nice return. They did not hype their pick. They gave sound reasons why they liked the stock pick. The stock , 2 weeks after their write up, broke though their Target price. What more does a person want?? I CAN understand wanting to Short a stock after a huge gain, done it many times myself. You do not have to sink to the level of lieing in order to promote Short Selling of IFLY. It will do what it has to do, in either direction, despite anything you say. Seems you like being the BAD boy. I can understand that too, I at times have been a SI Bad Boy too. Thats how I can see right though you. Take the personnal stuff and lies to Private Message where it belongs. Instock

Auric, Oh dear savior you say: >>>A) I don't buy garbage crim stocks, I short and expose them. B) I am not giving "HELL to people" rather I am educating many people about the basic levels of due diligence so that they can avoid making the same beginner level mistakes that the Tres Amigos have made.<<<<< WOULD YOU PLEASE SHOW (and post to) THIS THREAD WHAT YOU HAVE TO PROVE THAT IFLY IS A "CRIM" (as you put it ... which I am to assume that you mean involved in criminal activity) STOCK. You have posted nothing but old filings and inuendo regarding warrants and past employment of some directors who may or may NOT have been privy to fraudulent activity at those firms. One worked at Barington less than a year (WOW) and the other less than three years at Euro Atlantic. And Auric, we never picked IFLY as a put under you pillow, through your life savings into it stock. It was and still is a short term trade. The stock hit our first target. Amazing isn't it ????? How many snot nosed Wall Street analysts upgrade stocks only to see them tank hmmmmmmm ?? Amigo Mike

Auric, Someone posted this on the Yahoo BB, strange how I thought of you. The write-up is from DM Group Financial. "Do you even know how "shorts" work ? They bet that a stock will go down,just like you bet a stock will go up.Now a year ago when I asked broker friends of mine if the internet message boards will have any affect on a stock.They ALL laughed at me and said those idiots having an affect on a stock ! Well I asked those same friends this last week-and the answer from all YES! message boards and "shorts"(some) can manipulate with lies, BS, and deceit.Let me tell you what I have seen on two different boards. One stock was $8 and a "pack" of shorts come on and posted total lies about SEC violations,and "class action lawsuits".There was 15-20 of these manipulating "shorts".The stock went from $8 to $6 overnight without cause -just these manipulating "packs" posting total lies and BS. Another board I had seen about 15 months ago had a bunch of "regulars" on the board.Problem was these "regulars" were the nicest bunch of mostly elderly people you would want to know and talk with.The stock was about $18 and then came "the pack" of shorts.There were again 15-20 of them.They got the elderly so scared that they would not fight and just stopped posting.Thus leaving the board totally to these manipulating "shorts". The stock went from $18 to $10 without reason just lies posted by these liars.Do you understand a little now? Let me say this to you and i want you and the whole board to think about this statement. IT IS EASIER TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO SELLING THAN IT IS TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO BUYING A STOCK. Now think about that,you have elderly that invest and find their way to the message boards only to see false posts about "SEC Violations" and "Class action suits" or you have a Yuppie with a kid to put in college going to these message boards only to see posts by 15-20 (probably 5 or 6 under alias)"pack of shorts" posting the same false stuff about SEC Violations or lawsuits or "there's bad news coming out" ....what do you think they will do? Let me ask you people who don't like my attacking back ways,language etc... Do you think for that elderly person and that Yuppie with the college kid -that it would be easier to take the money out of the stock with these rumors and put the money back into the bank? Another question :do you think it is easier to take money out of the bank and invest it into stock....or easier to take the money out of the stock and put it back into a safe bank? It's easier to sell the stock and put the money into the bank for nervous people like the elderly and the Yuppie who needs college funds. THAT'S WHO THE PACK OF SHORTS PRAY ON AND DEPEND ON. They bet on a stock to go down-not up! .Understand ? And they have just as much money and risk as you.But they have the edge of fear ,lies,falsehoods to post and pray on the nervous.Longs don't have that." italiana
