Good luck with that.
By the time you implement those “filters”,
IHUB will have dwindled to half its membership.
(so much for post counts and ad revenue).

That would be helpful to traders that mainly use the site for research (me). I don’t often comment on stocks I’m trading as I’m not an OTC ‘investor’ and don’t need the distraction, but like to read.

I’d hate to lose a site that has been a reliable (and civil) source of insight for nearly a decade.

When I have some time, if you don’t mind some input I’ll send you some suggestions in PM, strictly from a trader’s perspective that may keep both sides of the spectrum happy, and feed two birds with one scone.

We are going to develop additional tools for flagging/filtering posts, though what form those are going to ultimately take is still being evaluated. There are many possible approaches and no single right or wrong way to go about it.

Then why do it in two steps? Some people annoyed by all the junk posting will just leave, rather than wait for eventual improved filters.
