You are more than welcome to delete my posts if you feel they cross the line into a personal attack.
I believe strongly that people should be responsible for what they post, not just in the strictest legal sense, but in the general moral sense. If someone is going to be enthusiastic about a stock simply because they own it and it's in their own self interest, I think it's important to caveat that.
I know there are many who do not and who feel "if you listen to advice posted on an anonymous MB, you will get what you deserve". Not my POV.
I specifically tried to point out that I am not trying to single out Faith (though he/she is the one who continues to suggest there is reason to buy the stock with which I disagree). I would agree that there are many posters on this board that have had blinders on (you included), but Faith (and Nala) has been a bit more aggressive, IMHO with such posts as "SKNN off the naked short list" and her post to me that "if you had plunked your money down ... it would have doubled".
Again, you're the mod so it's your call. I will restate that I accuse no one on the board of outright lies in the sense of posting untruths purported to be fact, but I do consider encouraging people to buy a stock in which you yourself don't believe any longer, simply so you will lose less to be "dishonest", at least without some sort of caveat as to your perspective.
I've made my point to the people to whom I felt it needed to be made now, so I'm happy to have you delete anything you feel is offensive. None of those posts provide any value to the board in general, IMHO.

Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
