My comments are based on the NWBO board. Folks from other boards might not realize that a penny biotech is the most active board on IHUB. It's wildly promotional, and a bit of a sewer as far as civility.
Name calling, labeling, and insults are an endless issue - pumper, basher, etc. I'd like to see permanent bans for the worst of it, like someone on the NWBO board calling another a pedophile.
Vulgarity - I disagree with the standard proposed. Be a legit investment site that promotes actual discussion. Adult civility should be the goal, not junior high school as implied by PG13. The nwbo board became much worse when "bullshit" and similar terms were deemed acceptable.
Personal attacks - I see lots of personal attacks, but very few based on race, religious, etc. Questioning the motives of other posters. Accusations of impropriety. Endless flow of "why are you here" type questions.
Threats - should also include threats of legal/regulatory attacks, not just violence.
