>>Let's see. Alex MG over on your old SI thread has been banned, and is still trying to clarify why. He's a valuable board participant IMO. <<
I'd agree. He actually didn't get banned. He created several new accounts, which got terminated and posts deleted. Out of the blue he created several new accounts and I killed each of them within minutes. But he wouldn't give up so I banned his IP address. His original account is fully intact. And Bob removed the IP ban for me last night.
>>Lucretius was banned for annoying LG, as far as I can tell. Mythman is now banned, he states. LG has not been banned yet. da_cheif is still here. <<
I'm not sure I even need to comment on Luc and the gang. It's quite simple. The folks who post about stocks are still on the site and those who don't, aren't.
>>I have to admit, I am confused why the IHub admin needs to pursue this aggressive deleting/banning policy. If the software permits, excluding people on a per-thread basis, by the moderator of that thread, seems more flexible and maybe creates less of a sense of censorship.<<
I stay aggresive because I want this to be a forum for the discussion of stocks. I get so tired of the idiots attacking people, multiple alias to trash others, and talk about useless garbage; so I hit it head on. I'm actually very fast to terminate/ban a multiple account person. But as far as 'deletions', I don't do very many of those unless it's quite blatant and the person doesn't take a hint.
