There appears to be quite a bit of confusion by a number of Users here about the rules of this site and laws surrounding promotional activities. The board has been closed for a few days to ensure that all involved have the time to become fully compliant with both SEC laws and the Terms of Use of this site.
While iHub is not a regulatory agency and has no authority to enforce SEC laws, all commercial Users need to participate in the Investor Relations Program (IRP) here. In a nutshell this means that people who are legally required to disclose compensation under 17b, should have an icon in their profile designating them as an IRP along with a standard compensation disclosure on each post where it is needed. This allows the IRP to be legally compliant with their required disclosures, while providing consistent, recognizable transparency to other Users here.
Closing the board will provide the folks who are compensated the time to consult with their legal advisers to understand the laws surrounding promotional activities and ramifications for failing to adhere to them. During this hiatus, it is also expected that these Users will also become fully compliant with the rules of this site.
Because we hope that there was naivete (as opposed to maliciousness) surrounding the recent activities here, we will re-open the board after 7 days, if the original Mod requests this course of action. Our hope would be that it would then become a board focused on sharing stock picks amongst friends with full disclosure of any promotional activities.
If the original Mod is not interested in resuming the board, then it will remain closed.
If anyone has any questions, please send me a private message.

Nobody massacred anything. You are responsible for your investment decisions. You do not know how to conclude anything from facts. You do not understand how hundreds of people sell their stock and the PPS falls. You have no shred of evidence of anything. Like a little child wobbling in water, you launch unwarranted attacks left and right without any prior thought process.
I thin it was the scam/stock manipulation that took place...
What was the topic here? It's rather unclear at the moment...
B/S. So they don't preload themselves, but 200 do? Real novel B/S.
I feel sorry for you. You don't even know what a penny stock is.
with one confirmed seller
Here is a really serious man to take into serious consideration. Would you guys answer him?
So do I,makes me sick
lol..thanks L. Guess I need a tv show....maybe I can give Dr. Phil a run for his money
that would be meeeeeeeeeeee im a loser :( hey ive seen worse stocks turn around though so who knows
no gloating. i feel bad for the folks that bought friday and held.
those mod's who bailed as you say,, may not have even known their names were on the mod list , check how many of those posted to the boards or helped with the promotion on other boards !!!
I dunno, they had great success
here is the assclenchers success page......

OH DUDE!!!!!!! THATS HILARIOUS!!!!!!
2nD mailbox......good one!!
Check out the One Play a Day board....they're making a new pick tomorrow and don't pre-load the thing before they pick it. So novel.
It's so sad how vernon and gang massacred these poor sheep here...just sad.
New Board Name Suggestions:
How to Make Friends at the SEC

I was an iHubber and all I got was this lousy t-shirt
Laig you always know the right thing to say at the right time :)
How much more miserable than a "pick" that drops almost 50% in the middle of a promotion can it get?
You prefer a board best suited to masochists?
wow, all of the halfway legitimate mods bailed here I see..
lol, this is a discussion board, not a service for addicts. Let's think of something else.
Is anyone seriously interested in a "play of the week" concept? I'm not really sure how workable that is.
The Penny Pusher
I don't see why any tout site should get free advertising on IHub. Many, many others feel the same, as the posts here indicate.
I also don't see why paid promoters who post on IHub can't follow the rules and make proper disclosure with every post. If they need help doing that, they can PM me.
And yes, there will be a name change. Anyone have ideas?
I kinda liked the whole tie-in with pennyclincher.com - How come you decided to be the mod of a custom board like this? you going to change the name?
Look at their site
IGSM.PK 0.01 -0.01 -83.33%
That's not good
Geez

OMG... this is great janice... Nice to see you up there girl!
Ohh I thought it was linked to this site http://www.pennyclincher.com
My bad
This is supposed to be a promotion board is it not?
No, it is not. It's a board where posters can discuss what they consider to be promising plays.
If Penny Clincher wants to advertise the plays it's paid to promote, it can pay for that advertising.
Dunno why my post got deleted. This is supposed to be a promotion board is it not? IGSM was supposed to be promoted by this board right?
I don't think what happened here should go unwarranted...
This is starting to look like the Penny Weasel board.....
I want to make money like anyone else, but not the way this looks like it went down....
Sorry to those of you who are down....I hope it goes up for you...
UPS Store.....Really?....
What a shame....

I wonder which one of these apply:
Values
Values are the rules by which we make decisions about right and wrong, should and shouldn't, good and bad. They also tell us which are more or less important, which is useful when we have to trade off meeting one value over another.
Dictionary.com defines values as:
n : beliefs of a person or social group in which they have an emotional investment (either for or against something); "he has very conservatives values"
Morals
Morals have a greater social element to values and tend to have a very broad acceptance. Morals are far more about good and bad than other values. We thus judge others more strongly on morals than values. A person can be described as immoral, yet there is no word for them not following values.
Dictionary.com defines morals as:
n : motivation based on ideas of right and wrong
Ethics
You can have professional ethics, but you seldom hear about professional morals. Ethics tend to be codified into a formal system or set of rules which are explicitly adopted by a group of people. Thus you have medical ethics. Ethics are thus internally defined and adopted, whilst morals tend to be externally imposed on other people.
If you accuse someone of being unethical, it is equivalent of calling them unprofessional and may well be taken as a significant insult and perceived more personally than if you called them immoral (which of course they may also not like).
Dictionary.com defines ethics as:
A theory or a system of moral values: “An ethic of service is at war with a craving for gain"
The rules or standards governing the conduct of a person or the members of a profession.
Ethics of principled conviction asserts that intent is the most important factor. If you have good principles, then you will act ethically.
Ethics of responsibility challenges this, saying that you must understand the consequences of your decisions and actions and answer to these, not just your high-minded principles. The medical maxim 'do no harm', for example, is based in the outcome-oriented ethics of responsibility.
I couldn't agree with you more learning...
I found it somewhat entertaining in a sense, all weekend, but more so, I find it interesting for the things you learn about people, posters that you think you know, I find it sad, for the people that lost money, and, disgusting for the people who made money off of these people who lost money. What a world we live in. But hey, its the PINKS, as they say.......or is it really, the people IN the pinks. These days, you pretty much have to play the people, as much as you play the stock, and that is a sad thing
I think we will bounce just because we are down near bottom levels... hopefully it comes back around a penny or so and people can get some $$$ back... news will save us!
You didn't see the PR?
IGSM inssued a LOI to purchase a second mailbox at the UPS store.
Interesting AND educational!
stock promotion and manipulation go hand in hand pretty regularly, for sure.
with one play a week like that there will not be much of a following in a short time.
Oh my, this board lost 30 bookmarks today.
I am really surprised people don't find this entertaining.
Ooooooh! The "C......" was obscured by the palm tree...
NO NO No it is a cuban rest. this is south florida,lmao
las vegas cuban,whatever that means.
LOLOL!! A Chinese restaurant?
Any non-disclosing promoters on this board?
I guess Vernon didn't have to do as much work, and got more money. As usual, it looks as if the idea was to create volume that someone could dump into.
I'd call that stock manipulation.
nice pump and dump action. way to go vern.
