EyeNEye, it makes sense to me that ihub has that sort of spam policy. Even the rules of this board are that you post something either here, or on the ZipCodeChangers board, not both.
Because otherwise all it does it make somebody sift through that much more information, and that makes the entire service that much less valuable for everyone. Plus, it turns ihub into nothing but a stock-touting, promotion site, rather than a site where we can all help each other gain valuable fundamental or technical information and make better investments.
We all have limited time. We all want to be more productive.
Imagine if I could hit a button and have a message posted to every single board. That would mean everyone else would have to have to read the same message on probably 5, or 6, or 10 boards, or however many they follow. Complete waste of time. And everyone else would be doing the same thing to me.
-Think of anything that is news in your life. Let's say you're having a baby. That's definitely news. If you send an email to your friends, they will all appreciate knowing it. But if you send an email to every single person on earth, that's spam.
