Hmmm. It played out exactly as we predicted. Except for the timing. I didn't expect I-Hub to realize their mistake so quickly. But I guess they were surprised by what transpired, even though we long-time, experienced posters told them exactly what to expect.
I still don't think the roll back goes far enough. I still say a post on a Stock Board should, the very minimum, contain some content that is actually "on-topic" to the subject of the Board. That would eliminate all the newly allowed posts that are nothing but attacking another poster, and that seems to make up about 80% or more of the current posts. If someone wants to call another poster and idiot (or worse), I understand allowing that. But it should be allowed only in context of a post that contains something of value to the discussion, and the community at large.
But, naturally, maybe I-Hub is happy with that. It is definitely "free-flowing" and it still counts as traffic and views, even if it has absolutely nothing to do with the subject at hand.
