Sorry Dave, but in my opinion, the moderators have made these boards useless. I have posted plenty of informative posts that have been deleted by over zealous moderators. There is not a decent process for having posts reviewed, and the time I did ask Matt what was wrong with a post, he would not really say, but it was obvious he had no intention of re-instating it because it was a negative post.
While negative posts are quickly deleted, all the mindless pumping posts always remain on the boards. This has the effect of creating one sided boards where most of the posts are just useless cheerleading.
I have given up on these boards until you can figure out a way to control your moderators. Deleting a post should be a last resort, and it should only be done in cases of personal attacks and pumping spam. As long as these boards make it so easy for moderators to delete posts as a way to control content, these boards will be useless to the average investor.
