RE: That is a Bluff ..

It would appear that your consistency problems are once again shining through Lightweight.

I'm sure Chundie appreciates your vote of confidence however.

Should we go back to discussing your "fool-proof shorting system designed specifically for the TSX Venture" Lightweight?

Perhaps this will suffice.

Oh, and Chundie, read the Barker news releases.

Bingo - Bango !!   I'm a success.  I am annoying you. Don't be such a hypocrite too.  On the one hand you say ignore this stuff on the Chat Boards .. but now you are trying to say some of it is serious. What you SHOULD do is read up on these Boards and get some kind of an idea of just what they really are.  They are a relatively new medium.  As you try to tell me .. this is what used to go on.  Yes I agree .. it did.  And ALL of the same types of things were SAID among us.  Now it goes in print form through aliases.  But the promoters who are being maligned can READ it now.  In the old days they used to get the comments second hand thru their paid touts ( who we all knew anyway ).  So actually nothing much has changed.  The maligned promoters to-day though don't often know who is behind the alias. Yes Stockhouse keeps the aliases private.  Bin there .. dun all that .. in both eras.  And along with many friends .. then and now.  It was like a fraternity then and it still is to-day.  Back then you, hap,  would have been a leper just like you are now.  No one would have fraternized with you .. like ' stay away from that dizzy broad -- she is a trouble maker '.  LOL.

For hap's benefit. Firstly nothing has changed very much over the years. All of us are Outsiders -- looking in. We group together and talk about stocks. We get to know each other. It used to be face to face around Howe Street. Now it's online. We try to judge each other by the writing styles. But we always concluded who we liked or did not like. And who we could believe and who we could not. Do you think that Company Directors and Promoters were never maligned then ? OF COURSE THEY WERE. It goes with the Territory. I did it regularly myself and everybody knew who I was. No problem. Others did the same. Nobody ever got any feedback from said Directors or Promoters. Now however because these things are written and the audience is much much broader the possibility of being 'checked up' for libel is always there. This is why the Internet is full of aliases. In my particular case I don't consider that hiding. I used to say things then, which I write now. Then it was Freedom Of Speech within limits of slander. Now it's Freedom Of Expression within limits of libel. But for libel it must be proven that damages were done and to what extent. If you think that character assassinations on an online stock chat Board do any damage to Directors or Promoters you are nuts. Chat Boards do not have much influence. Hap even agrees. As I have previously posted .. I know of only one case where one Stockhouse member was permanently restrained because he relentlessly attacked one particular company and its management. Stockhouse did cooperate in that instance and it did disclose the attacker who was promptly warned by the Company lawyer. As far as sincere people running businesses .. gimme a break. These are really not businesses because very very very very few of them ever generate a profit. As for sincerity .. not very many insiders qualify. Most are there for the cheap shares they can get and the properties they can find that will generate good Stories to entice the mooches to buy their cheap shares at inflated prices. And besides most of these insiders could not run a business properly. So that's my rant for now. Finally .. don't give me that holier than thou KRUD, happy. This is all a huge gambling game and you should know that. It's speculative .. DUH !! Some of us quite often post negatively. That's healthy.
