I didn't stick around, though. At the time, the atmosphere was pretty oppressive for "bashers". For the most part, I stuck with RB until 2004, when the technical problems and unchecked personal attacks became too much to deal with.

Since then, I've mostly been here. I only post occasionally at SI these days.

ihub was created to provide a safe haven to "positive posting" on some rather dodgy otcbb/pink plays.

If that is true, than Matt was corrupted much earlier than I had supposed, probably through contacts made on S.I. back in the early days when he was still in high school, which better explains how this smart kid fell from grace. I had assumed he set up Ihub as a legitimate way to make money, and became corrupted by posters here who wanted to use him to further their own nefarious schemes. I assumed he was older and his personal success assured before his judgment failed and that he had simply flown too close to the sun, ate too much of the forbidden apple, drank too much of the nectar of the gods, and the lure of the good life and greed then overcame his personal principles. . .

Who knows, anything is possible. . .
