What I am trying to do is separate the dedicated bashers and promoters for us "good folk" in one fair swoop!

"Basher" is an interesting term. What EXACTLY is a BASHER? Is JANICE SHELL a basher posting information about a company? If I call a company a POS, am I a basher but if I think XYZZ is a great company, then I am a pumper? I am more interested in the people that post about a stock cause they think the chart looks purdy or what about those that spend their time reading filings and looking for stuff that no one else has posted about? What about those people that know what stocks are being promoted and by whom? What about those that are paid by the company to post about a stock or by the famous "non-affiliated third party"? What about people that post news releases - do you want to know about them? What about people that NEVER post about stocks?

The problem is that any MEMBERMARK system can be manipulated...a bunch of us used to laugh our arses off on RB when peeps went to sleep with 5 $$$$$ beside their alias and thru various means the next morning we were able to get them to 0 dollar signs beside their names.

Different peeps want different things from their iHub experience and a poster that might be important to one person, may mean zip to someone else.

IMHO, they should either do away completely with the MEMBERMARK system or leave it as is.
