You do nothing. I control my personal board and I am voicing my opinion and it is NOT open for discussion
if I so elect to do that.


I disagree. I may be wrong, but I very strongly disagree.

Here's my reasoning: If there's discussion of WXYZ, it would be wrong to squelch one side of the discussion (assuming no TOS violations), regardless of the contents of the "ticker" field in our database.

That simple.

If you do not ignore it then you are saying that basically my board is now an extension of the WXYZ thread and I disagree.

To me, it's not a matter of whether or not it's the WXYZ thread or an extension of it. It's discussion taking place on a public message board ostensibly to discuss the merits of a stock as a worthwhile investment.

To be honest it is flat out none of your business what I say or do on my personal board. PERIOD. That is what you have not figured out yet.

I disagree. If stocks are being discussed and relevant opinion or information is getting squelched "just for grins", it's very much my business.

It was my understanding that this is a well-known aspect of my reputation and that I was hired because that reputation spoke for how I would work here, not because a lot of people thought I did a good job or because my reputation would add credibility to the site, but my understandings have been mistaken before...

My personal is not attached ro anything else. Personal boards are personal boards just as my corner where I give my
opinion and I really could care less about anyone else' view, opinon or whatever.


Personal boards that are occupying spots and engaging in conversation on a stock discussion site
