I like your concept except for the part where IRPs have a higher subscription price...that seems discriminatory to me. Do you give Seniors a better rate if they say they have an AARP card? Family discounts? Tag 'em with an icon, fine. Have a link to their disclaimer, fine. Sanction those that don't disclose if it has been determined that in fact they are an IRP. Your win-win by having them here is more posts & reads - if they weren't here, there would be less posts. You guys have always said that you don't enforce the SEC rules nor determine the veracity of posts - I don't see how this is different. An IRP who discloses is up front & should have more credibility than an IRP that don't - ASSuming either have credibility. Using your proposal, why not have special icons also for company officials and, if you go through with your proposal, charge them more to subscribe?
