>>Also, I don't agree with your statement that being negative on the stock is a basis for removal.<<
Careful, read what I wrote again, I didn't say it was basis for removal - I was merely commenting on his side-of-the-fence status.
I actually had no problems with AN's board management. If it's important to him to be involved in the board management, I'll put him on as an Assistant for now - I don't really care who is the Mod as long as TOU is enforced and people are encouraged to discuss the stock. Right now, that's happening.
Anonymous Nobody,
Contrary to the conspiracy theories that shorts and a few others have managed to dream up in the last day or two awaiting my reply, it was a rather basic Admin move.
A user or two expressed an interest in taking over the board, they have a good history with me. You aren't around that often (though you seem to be now) on the SGLS board, so I popped them in. Didn't think it'd be a big deal; you're clearly negative on the stock and that often discourages conversation when the 'Mod' is negative. You can obviously still post there.
I don't know a thing about SGLS and don't care about it. All I care about is an active discussion of the stock. That's certainly happening right now over there. I'll monitor the board. If it turns out NetGains/others is a wanker and doing a bad job, I'll put you back in.
Oh - to shorts - it's off topic to discuss Mod changes/deletions/etc on the board. You're free to discuss those with me, but not on the board, that's why I removed the few posts you guys made.
I know I've answered this question before, just for you, at least several times before. I think you simply don't like the answer and keep asking.
>>how does one go about getting a free political board?<<
I think we have two (maybe three?) free political boards. They are exceptions to the rule. As Admin we have to make judgement calls. That means we have to bend the TOU sometimes to make the place work as it should. We've done that with a few boards that would normally be premium.
If there's a board you'd like to be made free, that's premium, you're welcome to present your case via PM to me and I'll consider it; however, it's highly unlikely I'll be moving any more political board to free status.
Have a great trading week.
If they are talking about a stock they were compensated for, yes, they need to click the tickbox to include the IRP disclaimer.
>>Still wondering about the Treehouse INVESTMENT board?
link provided in prior post. Id like to unrequest it as premium then, lol...if thats how it works. Not that I requested the all stock board to be a premium in the first place.<<
I've moved it to free. Looks like it was started as premium.
The other is toast now; just let us know and we'll always zap the dupe.
Boogerville? I think iHub is the only remaining business besides a weekly bingo hall there.
Gotta go to 'the city' to get gelato.

welcome back, btw!
We really should reassign you to Customer Support.
Fantastic post volume this week, folks!
Averaging nearly 25k public posts per day....woot!
Brilliant. I'm treating you to Gates BBQ next time I'm there! And some of that gelato. Mmmmmmm...
Impressive. Almost as skilled as Mr. Cashews with the graphics!
I've set you up with one week of the Small Cap Pro/Level2.
To use it, log out of iHub; then log back in to iHub, click Streamer and/or Level 2 at the top of the site.
* Take a look at tools to play with: http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/advfn_tools.aspx
Various quote providers use different ways of showing the montage of Level 2.
Some use blended (OTCBB and Pink Sheets feeds mixed); ADVFN uses straight from the exchange based on what it's listed on (OTCBB OR Pink Sheets). I'm going to do some comparisons myself next week and see which seems more accurate.
Anyway, I digress. I can set you up for a 1 week trial on your iHub account and you can compare and see what you think.
This should be added shortly.
Jim/board, congrats on your good news today!!
It's an honor to be 'the' IDCC board on the 'net!
Definitely gotten some from those guys.
In San Fran? How's the weather?
PALM, sucker blew up. Thought the company was dead; PRE looks very cool. Definitely one I'm adding to my radar, might even take a little bite if it dips back into the 6 area.

All looks well in this regard. All news articles are now caught up for the problem tickers reported. If anybody sees a stock missing a news/PR item, please let me know.
Yeah. she was holding STRONG in the 13's today..even when the market was down 200. When it went beyond that, it did fall apart. Not bad.
She broke thru 12, monkeybreath.
<mouth foamage>
C, BAC....yoooowch!
Fotothing/image hosting looks DOA. I've reported it.
Edit, they're on it now. Hard drive failure.
The news issue from the quote page should be fixed today. He's made modifications to the script that handles incoming feeds; will test tonight on tickers that were reported to have missing news.
>>Any time frame on when advfn is going to update the quote pages for most penny stocks.... I've cleared my cache's, temp files, emptied my recycle bin, taken out the neighbors recycle bin and it hasn't helped.
thx <<
I escalated the issue today at ADVFN, as the guy handling this just wasn't getting it done. I'll update you once I know more. I assume you're talking about the missing news on some stocks...
I've restored the iBox....
>>In what way, would we be able to communicate information about a potential up and coming stock, without it being spam.
There's communicating and there's promoting/spamming/touting.
Communicating is simple. Post about the stock on a board or two that you're a regular at. Interact with the other board members about the stock. That's totally groovy.
Promoting/spamming/touting is going to boards you rarely/if ever post on, putting out some DD sheet/quick line about a company.
Is that more clear?
You contribute a lot, no question.
However, this round of posts was simply spam. No big deal, just don't do it again, please.
Putting the ticker out via whatever you'd like to call it is spam. You posted the 'articles' within a small time frame on numerous boards.

No sir, that's spam. While you did change the text up a bit, the intent was still the same. You can't blast a ticker on 20 different boards like that......
Super Bowl? Is that the game they play by kicking the white ball around; or a name of a bowling video game?
I've re-opened the board to posting. Have a great 3-day weekend, all.....and no attacks on other users!
BAC up nicely in a/h.
I'm a meathead, so I'll make a prediction.
BAC moved up earnings to flush out bad news ASAP. Next week, I think is going to be a fantastic week for the markets, better to flush the shit out now.
I also think shortly after their earnings report or maybe even during, they announce the funding from the gov't.
I own a little for a lottery ticket. It goes to 12+ or under 6 tomorrow.
Brilliant call on HIG, sir. Touched 12.07; now at 14.

Sweetpie, HIG has not gotten any tarp and so far holding up well in addition to other insurers, you can get your foot wet with a starter long term position and add more to it as financials "hold" a bit stable. HIG could dip to 12 on a very bad day, but its not going anywhere anytime soon. Strong fin.
I'd foam at the mouth AND wet my knickers for some HIG at 12. I was pounding the table when it was in the 7 range. Very solid company, IMO.
Quite funny how I actually started following them - they do my car insurance. Couldn't believe what I was paying, so I decided I was going to make my insurance premium back off their stock...lol. Worked like a charm!
Gimme 2 days to think about it.
Status Updates:
This is quite groovy.
I'm open to comments/opinions on these two things.
1) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/recentstatus.aspx
This is listed under Other tab in the menu right now. It shows all the latest Status Updates by members.
I might stream the last 15 or so to the homepage at some point - that's be cool, yeah? Or maybe pump them into your favorites if they're on your Membermarks?
2) http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/profile.asp?user=2744
We've stripped out the green box (it's from 2000); bolded the Alias; reduced the size of the status text. Now, it's better, but it feels like it's floating in space. Any ideas?
GRACIAS to MEATGRAVY for these changes.
Cupcake, what do you think of my darling of 2008 - HIG - down here? I'm foaming at the mouth for some.
It's a good thing I don't depend on trading to put food on my table. lol.
Omnipresent. We're always watching....
Got me some of that today. [UCO]
Seems like a reasonable bet with OPEC whacking production, yeah?
You're free to ask questions of the IRPs as it relates to the company - anything you'd like to know. They can answer or not; up to them.
You're also free to ask anything regarding their compensation as it relates to the company.
What you are NOT allowed to do is talk about anything personal related to them - their history, their friends, what you think of them as a person, past deals, whatever. That's completely off topic and makes a mess of the board.
Every single post on this board needs to be 100% about PharmaCom - nothing else.
Gran Torino
You said it better than I could, monkeybreath. Great movie. Funny as hell. Clever ending, too.
Just came back from Gran Torino. 4 out of 4. Best movie I've seen in a long time. Deep-meaning, great violence, and absolutely laugh-out-loud hysterical comedy throughout. Two hours of great entertainment from the very beginning to the very end. A true master piece directed, produced, and starring Clint Eastwood. Potentially his best and a great grand finale to his life's work.
I'm docking it a 1/4 pickle, though, due to the racism being a weeeee over the top.
3.75 of 4 pickles.
What happened to Admin???

Dunno. Dinner. Family. Kids. Bonfire. Catfish noodling.
I'm hoping they were doing anything but posting here on a Saturday night. :)
