grubmaster...Well I'll take your word for it as you guys would know a little better than I about the nature of complaints, however as I stated earlier I still believe the right of individuals to moderate forums that are about specific companies needs to be reigned in. And for obvious reasons. I have nothing against people getting their own personal forum to discuss whatever and to moderate such, but I think the vast majority of your active moderators are nothing more than mouthpieces for investments and where quite literally anything contrarian is deleted and reported.

Legit complaints are one thing. Lack of tolerance for alternate points of view is becoming more prevalent here in my view. Take for example the jefferybraun999 alias over at FASC. Looking back on the guys posting history for the past couple weeks, I don't see anything there worthy of his being in this jail beyond pointing out and asking questions of pumpers on that forum. You said earlier you guys are objective in your approach to deletions and suspensions, yet I see examples like this which raise questions about that very objectivity.

Your data is badly skewed. You are looking at the data from all the boards mixed together. If you look at the data from each board individually like BBDA for example, you will see that the board is controlled by BBDA cons. If you post anything on BBDA’s board that is pro BBDA that is anywhere close to a TOS violation it will be removed, always for being “OFF TOPIC”. If someone posts something that is con BBDA and a blatant violation of TOS rules and you report it will not be removed 80% of the time. If you post on a board that is controlled by pros for that stock and you post something bad about the stock the opposite will occur. I have tried this on boards that I don’t even care about the stock and it works 80% of the time. I know no one will answer this because I posted yesterday that I was put in jail for posting someone’s fake name and someone posted my real name, and it was not removed for twelve hours and that was only after I reported it as a TOS Violation but that poster is not in jail. Why is that? When I was developing my signature I had one admin tell me it was correct and another admin told me it was wrong and removed it. That tells me the admins can’t even agree on what the rules say. If anyone cares am not trying to be a hard butt, just wish the admins could see what we see looking in from this side of the glass.

According to some memo, I am to respond to an Admin?
Suspended Until 08/14/2016 08:41:38 PM
How I got here without some type of warning, I don't know.. Reason!

My complaint is being the specific target of MODS and others... I won't standby and take a hit and turn the other check, if Admin is slow to react.
All MODS on MINE are former pro MINE turned con MINE due to their own poor DD.

I'm confident that we're doing it just about right. 48% of the complaints are from longs, "pumpers" and "touts" complaining that we don't "censor" the shorts and bashers enough. 47% come from the shorts and "bashers" complaining that we don't censor the longs, "pumpers" and "touts" enough.

3% complain about the noise posted by the above two camps about the other camp.

The remaining 2% have legitimate complaints.
