I'm not buying that explanation about the TA finding out that Rolling O Research was the guy asking for the HEMP share count being the reason for Bruce gagging Madison, but whatever.
It makes it more likely that was the case and now that Bruce know's who you are, the TA was gagged. To prevent the share information from being used in negative ways, as it has been, IMO, used for on here.
So simply broadcasting the ever-expanding OS to this board, where the number is available to any iHub reader, is using it in a negative way?
If one wanted to give advantage so some and not others, then it would have been better to:
1) Tell friends first, but no, that didn't happen, because RoR doesn't work that way, and RoR/DRT doesn't trade HEMP.
2) Write short articles for the past year about HEMP's latest dilution for SA, which would go to SA Premium members who pay a lot to see all the articles before they hit the free portion of the platform, but that didn't happen either.
Bruce should simply bite the bullet and either ask Madison to join OTCMarket's TA Verified Share Count program and schedule monthly updates to HEMP's profile page, or move Hemp, Inc's count to a TA who is part of that program.
