Posted by: Modern_Rock In reply to: Jim Bishop http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=37141537 THe main reason I'm on iHub as opposed to any other chat board or message board is because of the social aspects of it. Raging bull is a bunch of pump and dump posts for the pure sake of pumping a stock.
iHUb is more of a community of friends. THere are certain unwritten code of ethics and morality to be observed in any civilized society. ANd i believe ihub is a civilized social forum as opposed to the wasteland that is other sites such as raging bull.
With that said, the posts I make here are not to pump a stock. Heck, all of my stocks that I post have millions of $ of volume. It is not illiquid and not in need of any market awareness.
I post with online buddies for fun and to say go go go for fun. Like yourself, I lost money posting here because my time and focus should by on Level2 instead of typing the post.
BUt I post for fun and enjoy the social community that is ihub. So if a citizen of this community threatens the well-being of the society, the community needs to speak up and act so as not to allow this infestation to occur.
So i agree with you that not everyone posts on ihub just to make a buck or want to pump anything except maybe a good time.
