$AWIN popped this morning and I see no news, no filings. Promo? They just completed a 1:100 RS last month. It's a Japanese company HQ'd in Tokyo. Honestly, when I saw this pop up on the Fidelity dashboard this morning I had images of the dilapidated building for Aerotyne.
Back to school for them.
Edit: Interesting they didn't name the school but I suspect it was MIT.
I was exposing scams. Exposing posters own contradictions and sometimes making a sly sarcastic remark (maybe even with a wink emoji!) was about as bad as I ever got..The board itself is full of far more blatant violations. I was the 'polite one' on the board...
again, take it to Q&A as apparently it doesn't belong here.
This? Were you exposing scams or attacking posters?
5. Because I was exposing the possible scam I was hated on that board so my posts were constantly being reported in the hope that the administrator would get tired of reviewing them and decide to restrict me. Eventually it worked. It made the administrator's life easier.
As I said take it to the Q&A board. This is not the place for it.
you're kind of veering off-topic. My point was that they may have pestered the admin so much that she decided to restrict me.
I don't think you're reading me right. Yes, I got personal with the post saying someone's treatment of me was 'ugly', but that's a very minor violation. I think it was interpreted as sexist..dunno maybe it wasn't, but that it was the post that spurred the warning that morning.
Anyway, I have taken this to the Q&A board. so no more responding here. Thanks for weighing in.
Your mistake was getting personal. Develop a thicker skin.

So you got into a running gun battle on a penny stock board with people who like the stock and they got ticked off.
I hope you realize when it comes to penny stocks and scams you simply can't win and convince the stuck holders the stock is a POS.
You can't attack people on stock boards just because you disagree with them over the value of a stock.
IMO all penny stocks are simply not worth the time to post about.
I have a real problem with people who disrespect others without at least providing an explanation.
See my answer on the Q&A board, this isn’t the place for it…
thanks. I don't see how that was the case. I suggested one of my posts was interpreted as sexist and then explained how it was not (I had described a female posters treatment of me as 'ugly'), but that was ignored too. I have a real problem with people who disrespect others without at least providing an explanation.
that's nonsense sufkast. Read my #5 just putting in..
3. I had violated the terms so much or so aggregiously that the disrespect is deserved
I wouldn't know because they have not bothered to explain. In the few times I pmd in the past I always got a prompt and respectful reply.
But upon my restriction I didn't get any reply at all even though I thought my inquiries were reasonable and respectful.
I was a paying member. I cancelled my membership in protest over the disrespect.
Here are some other possible explanations:
1. someone higher up told them to restrict me since it is one of the most popular boards and they didn't like my views for one reason or another
2. the administrator didn't like my views on that stock
3. I had been warned. Their warning system is poor. I was warned in the morning - but it falls in the mailbox which usually says 99 messages so I was unaware of the warning until it was too late - and the 'violations' during the day felt targeted as they were incredibly minor.
4. I had violated the terms so much or so aggregiously that the disrespect is deserved. The thing is, I had only 1 violation in the 2 weeks prior, and the 'violations' on that particular day that apparently put me over the top were imo very minor - and certainly pale in comparison to the ongoing violations on that board every day. You can see them any day you look - lwlg.
5. Because I was exposing the possible scam I was hated on that board so my posts were constantly being reported in the hope that the administrator would get tired of reviewing them and decide to restrict me. Eventually it worked. It made the administrator's life easier.
6. not receiving my messages (unlikely)
7. other?

You must have ticked them off. Go to the Q&A board and post your complaint there.
I think the word he was looking for was socialist. lol.
It is nonsense in their opinion and not worth their time?
I'd hardly call him a hero. The only thing he has going for him is lots of money to tell everyone to F'off. X is now a cesspool of his own doing.
Seems the only time they'll halt a stock today is for trade imbalances.
When administrators do not reply to direct messages to them, what does that mean?
Is it possible they are not getting the messages?
I have been polite and professional in my multiple attempts to reach out to two of them now, and I never got even an initial reply from either one. It feels personal and not what one would expect from an ongoing business operation. A variety of explanations comes to mind - none of them very flattering, but I don't want to be too presumptuous. I just don't understand it.
Musk will write a check and move on.
At least 90% of the people who use the term "communist" have no idea what the word means.
Christ on a crutch. You're a real charmer. Do you call everyone who disagrees with you a "communist"?
Then it would have been permanent. That's how you can tell. The old regime permanently banned you if you said the wrong opinion. I know you want to defend the Communist philosophy and all but try to set your bias aside.
Again, I don't believe it was an "accident".
"The accounts which were restored within hours" lol you fell for the clickbait
https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-media/x-temporary-ban-journalist-accounts-raises-alarm-rcna133084
Bullshit. What about the journalists he banned? Musk wants to be King of the World, and thinks he deserves to be, simply because he's very rich.
None of those people are banned for disagreeing with him, doxing is a serious problem, James woods is a conservative. And another ban was a routine bot sweep that banned several real accounts that were quickly reinstated. There is zero practice of banning left-wing accounts there for simply disagreeing with him. Also I don't think any of those were permanent bans.
Okay. Here we have several.

And I'm sure that's by no means all the articles. Only a few I found quickly.
"people" lol ok name ONE.
People have certainly complained about being banned. Obviously I can't confirm that.
Ok so you don't have any evidence he bans people who don't agree with him, you actually provided proof that he allows free speech.
Obviously Musk thinks it's okay to allow white supremacists to post there unhindered, and even promotes their posts.
That's disgusting.
So it's your opinion that Elon agrees with every opinion on his platform? 😂 Do you have any actual proof that he bans people for life who don't agree with him? Because that's what the old regime actually did. I am living proof, I experienced it first hand.
Musk only believes in "free speech" for people who agree with him. He's just awful. A guy who thinks he can buy whatever he wants. He's done his best to ruin what used to be Twitter.
I don't think I ever posted at Atomic Bob's, but I did read it sometimes. And poor Bob ended up getting so many serious legal threats was afraid someone would make good on them, and bankrupt him. It IS possible to write about scams--make that "questionable issuers"--without defaming the people who run and/or promote them.
Years ago I met several of you on atomic bobs and bob came on there and said we should quit talking about the things we were talking about because somebody might sue him. I always thought Free speech was kind of important. Before Elon came along I got banned over there for saying that Lady Gaga's boots looked like Nazi boots. For that opinion they thought I should never be allowed to talk again. I don't understand how anyone especially on here views Elon as anything other than a hero.
NASDAQ has the legal authority to halt stocks in that way. "Back in the day" they used to do so, but as the market volumes increased along with volatility, they have taken an almost total hands off approach to market regulation.
Methinks the NASDAQ members make far too much money off of that trading to stop their gravy train.
as much as everyone cirticized Canadian markets in Toronto and Vancouver Those regulators halted stocks regularily if there was volume and price runs on no news. Thousands of times. i never once witnessed runs like I see daily on the NAZ on low floaters
Now that's good news!!
This Company is nothing near scammy though. It is very legitimate. It has not borrowed money since 2018 and has maintained revenue of around 4 million annually...it just can not scale given the climate(cannabis). It is a cash processor and vaulting company. It doesn't sell reefer or touch it.
It's not super voting preferred. It has the same voting rights as common..and a one share preferred for one share common vote. One preferred equals one common. Trust me..it is legit but more niche...and of course small.
I believe the preferred authorized is 100 million.
The preferred doesn't surprise me. That is standard operating procedure for certain (i.e., scammy) Nevada Corporations. Having supervoting preferred allows the insiders to retain full control no matter how many shares the corporation issues. Even when floorless toxic convertibles are concerned.
A lot of penny players who know nothing of corporate law, and Nevada specifically, get blindsided by the consent provision and the supervoting preferred. By the time they figure it out they have often lost most of their "investment".
But, not all Nevada corporations have supervoting preferred. Only the sleazy ones..... Some actually give some consideration to shareholders, and those should not be tainted with that broad brush. Investors need to do their DD research and figure that out BEFORE they buy.
FFIE...1.5 Billion sold today alone...Nasdaq listing...reminds me of those heady Pink Sheets days.....
No-gimmick is good.....

Stock Dilution Scam:
A share dilution scam happens when a company, typically traded in unregulated markets such as the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets, repeatedly issues a massive amount of shares into the market for no reason, considerably devaluing share prices until they become almost worthless, causing huge losses to shareholders. Then, after share prices are at or near the minimum price a stock can trade and the share float has increased to an unsustainable level, those fraudulent companies tend to reverse split and continue repeating the same scheme.
Pump and Dump Schemes:
"Pump and dump" schemes, also known as "hype and dump manipulation," involve the touting of a company's stock (typically microcap companies) through false and misleading statements to the marketplace. After pumping the stock, fraudsters make huge profits by selling their cheap stock into the market.
Pump and dump schemes often occur on the Internet where it is common to see messages posted that urge readers to buy a stock quickly or to sell before the price goes down, or a telemarketer will call using the same sort of pitch. Often the promoters will claim to have "inside" information about an impending development or to use an "infallible" combination of economic and stock market data to pick stocks. In reality, they may be company insiders or paid promoters who stand to gain by selling their shares after the stock price is "pumped" up by the buying frenzy they create. Once these fraudsters "dump" their shares and stop hyping the stock, the price typically falls, and investors lose their money.

The key is understanding
The key is understanding that pink sheet stocks are not investments - 99% of them will lose value over the long run and never accomplish most of their forward looking pumping statements they put in press releases or on their websites. Never believe the hype - always be skeptical of everything you hear.
The people mostly making money with pink sheet stocks are promoters, front loading pumpers with big followings they can dump on, crooks, some of the flippers, and sometimes the very lucky.
Pumpers only tell you to buy stocks that they already own. Pumpers only tell you to hold stocks because they want to make sure you hold longer than them.
They make money by pumping the stock and getting other people to buy then dumping their shares on the followers.
If you really want to take the risk of trying to make money trading pink sheet companies then you have to understand how the game works and never ever hold long term - take profits when you can. Pump and Dumps dominate the IHUB forums.
Trading pink sheet stocks is a sick game full of lies and deceit where people take advantage of the inexperienced and naive stealing away their life savings for their own personal gains.
Very little respect or morals exist in stinky pinky land.
