80spitfire,

Not having seen the post you are referring to I can only venture a guess based on the facts as you present them. A stock other than the one for which a board was created would/will be defined as "spam". Your stock tip no matter how innocuous your intentions would still be classified as "spam". Seem petty? Perhaps but turn it around. If every stock-specific board employed an open door policy, then what would be the sense or reason for having stock-specific boards in the first place?

Quite honestly, I like open topic boards {i.e., The Golden Lists, Zeeves, and etc..} and will gloss over them looking for tidbits of info. However, I'm equally annoyed when I see somebody pushing their "favorite" stock on a stock-specific board. {I don't know that that is what you did as I didn't see your post and I'm guessing as to the content remember? ;)}

Anyway, that's how I would view it based on the above and that's my "take" on it.

Theo;-)
