HG, I think you are out of line. Mr. Hoffman began this thread by expressing his belief that Yahoo was grossly overvalued and will fall dramatically. Nasdaq777 then blasted him for yelling fire in a theatre and being selfish for trying to scare poor little ol yahoo holders into selling there oh so valuable shares. He defends his right to be negative on the stock as much as anyone else has the right to be positive on the stock. Then GC, jumps all over him with almost obscenities, what for? What has Mr. Hoffman said that has offended anyone?? This is degenerating into a yahoo like thread. It's sad.

<<Can you take a hint ? Please shut up. Enough is enough. I cannot remember anyone on this thread ever being rude and discourteous.>> The kind of diatribes and insults from the regular longs here have hardly been hints. I have no intention of shutting up. This board is not the exclusive chat room for you, Nasdaq, etc. The people being rude are the ones who should shut up. I did not see you post against Nasdaq's insults. It's very simple: I will post here in conformance with the rules of SI as often as I please. If you do not like my posts, you are free to skip them. <<You must have a special knack of bringing out the worst in everybody. But like I said, enough is enough.>> Right, blame me for the bad manners of others. By the way, you are not supposed to post knowingly false information on these boards. You previously posted that you were "fully hedged". Then you later let out how your shares were hedged but not your "deep ITM calls". That means you were down $20,000 (from the peak) for each contract. Hardly what I would call being fully hedged. Since the nature of your false information is restricted to your own position, I suppose it is not worth reporting to SI. If stating what is true or what I believe to be true makes you or others angry, that is just too bad.
