Just wanted to share this with the thread: To: David L Kosakowski (14089 ) From: nmk Tuesday, Feb 9 1999 10:53AM ET Reply # of 14092 Have you read about the lawsuits by companies against investors in these chat lines? I think people would rather wait for info. and then discuss the facts rather than just make idle chatter that can lead to multi-dollar settlements....look at other lines, and other chat lines, and you'll notice that most are watching their words----thank goodness. There's been too much bashing born of boredom and paid shills. Lots of people have lost too much money over these e-games. To: nmk (14090 ) From: Handshake Tuesday, Feb 9 1999 11:45AM ET Reply # of 14092 I agree that one should be allowed their first amendment rights. But if I were paid to intentionally bash a stock and benefit thru my stock trades then that is a deceitful maneuver and one that defintely breaks the law, but guess what it goes both ways doesn't it. What is the difference if I post positively about a stock and drive the price up and flip the stock to make a profit. That is also breaking the law as evidenced by SEC lawsuits that have been brought forth. One day we will know what is the difference from me posting on a message board, or me calling into a radio talkshow and expressing an opinion. I believe there is no difference, that we are protected by our first amendment rights. BUT, if I do so under intentionally deceivious reasons, then Katie bar the door...... This board does not belong to NPEC or Medinah, it belongs to Silicon Investor and we as posters need to protect our right to post and express an opinion, and keep deceivious posters away....IMO lol!!! :-)
