I think you may be operating under a misconception about the role of the moderators on this or any board on iHub. I would like to take a minute just to clarify what may be a misunderstanding held by many other readers.
Your post stated:
"A couple of months ago almost everyone (even the mods) stated that there wouldn't be a R/S even when we were sitting at .0001..."
as if moderators seemingly have sources of information that are not available to anyone else.
Sorry, but that is just not the case.
Some mods may be fountains of details, seemingly from "special sources" because they do a great deal of research about the company and the industry. Anyone could do the same and be just as informed, if they were so inclined. Their conclusions, however, may or may not be the same, or even one bit positive. That is why we all are here, to share information and compare, exchange, and interpret sources we have found.
It seems to me that if anyone has a negative outlook from the exact same information, then they would most likely have very little interest in investing in that stock, and most probably move on to a stock that they have a more positive opinion about. (so they can invest in it and make a profit.) That is why moderators are usually so positive about a particular investment, they have done DD and are usually a long term follower of the board.
All I as a moderator can do is express my personal opinion of a stock.
For example, my responsibility is not to CFGI, but to iHub, and is limited to enforcing the "Terms of Use". My post's and opinions are all a matter of a personal call.
Please do not confuse the position of a moderator as an expert on the stock itself. Rather consider the roll as one of a referee and the only "expert" information we have (as moderators) are about the rules relating to posts on iHub. (We don't get any compensation for our volunteering, and are by iHub rules, allowed to express our personal opinions, like anyone else.)
Yes, it is difficult to watch an investment's value diminish, but the decision to buy, hold or sell is strictly a personal one.
I hope this is accepted as a simple explanation to the board in general and nothing else but a clarification of what can be a confusion about the weight of moderators' posts.
Thanks!
GLTA.
