The biggest problem is the hedge funds and the institutions pawns that are placed on these message boards for sole purposes of pumping or bashing to move the sp,s up and down so they make their money. Many of these come on here with multiple aliases and manipulate their own ratings, even though bashing is supposedly not allowed here, if they want to push a stock down, they will keep coming back and back until they are successful here in accomplishing their goal. In fact, Agoracom is a real threat when any of these hedge funds want to move the stock down, because of the basher elimination process.

As for Primed on here crying, he had as high as 4 or 5 aliases at one time. He was banned because it was quite obvious of his intent, now here he is back on here again, and quite possibly with multiple aliases again, of which one may be DISSIDENT which is posting on the SLI board the last few days with a slant to disrupt shareholders while we are in a proxy and legal battle. Individuals can have several computers in one home as well as alternating IP addresses, so for Agoracom to ban an IP address of organized individuals is really of no effect, it becomes a constant battle.

I recently banned Silverback for the simple reason he violated over 20 posts in a 48 hour period on the SLI board which dealt with the most important aspect SLI shareholders ever dealt with, we don,t need that BS, we have enough to deal with, besides trying to process violations that are not violations, the intent of the perpetrator becomes perfectly blatant. Over a course of several days, Silverback probably clicked 50-70 posts as violations, he only did this, after we had banned other forum disruptors for doing the same things, suggesting a connection to the members prior that were banned.

There is a lot more to this story, but this should suffice to show part of the other side.And please remember, that someone up to no good and that continuously lies, usually does not change, they just look for more innovative ways to guise their intent. This is how they make some of their money, and in doing so, take advantage of the little guy everytime pillaging a bit off every paycheck that he may invest or contribute to his pension.

IMO
