Garyst...you are one of the most 'social justice' oriented people I know. You are truthful, candid and concerned about your fellow humans that inhabit our small planet. From the time I've known you, you have 'paid it forward' in multiples.
3 truisms worth stating in response to you post.
1 - the more people you know the less control you have over how others might experience and / or respond to you.
2 - everyone is responsible for their own trading decisions and their own wallets
3 - I-hub is for marketing our plays...through DD, through PMs...and most of all, through pumps. If folks don't like it, then they should move on.
Don't lose any sleep over anyone who doesn't understand this...sounds like they need to make better trading decisions. Your 'minions' got your back!!
The first time i started following you was after you 'went quiet' on a board where the ticker had gone up something like 8000%. The 'street' had confused and pumped the company as one the Berkshire Hathaway was buying...i believe it was a trucking company, but the company actually being bought was not the one thst folks ran up the ticker for. At the end of the trading session, the SEC deleted the ticker as it was actually a shell and everyone that didnt sell, lost their money...including you.
I remember the outpouring of concern for you and the support being communicated out on the board as people waited to hear from you. I was thoroughly impressed and struck by that. Never had i seen before or since so much regard for a fellow I-Hubber. Those are the kinds of things that speak to the character of someone...not a post by some dispondent trader that doesn't know how the own their own decisions.
You just keep being you Garyst...and keep in keepin' on my friend!!
