Given that we have just begun a new year and many here at ASF may not have seen this thread, I think it's an appropriate time to remind everyone about expectations of behaviour and posting. I would ask that everyone please review the first post in this thread very carefully.


Specifically, I would like to remind everyone of the following:


  • Do not insult or personally attack others. Ever. Do not call people morons, idiots or any other derogatory names. It is inappropriate and it is not acceptable.
  • Posts should discuss the content of other's posts, not the posters themselves.
  • Do not deliberately provoke others, bully them, or bait them. I have no problem with passionate, robust debate. On the contrary, I encourage it. But argue the point, don't deliberately wind others up in an attempt to disrupt or derail the discussion.
  • Posts in stock threads should discuss the stock, or the content of other's posts, and that's it. No off topic posts, no posts discussing other posters, and no posts with no content. If you are simply agreeing with someone please add something else of value to the discussion.
  • It is not acceptable to accuse others of ramping simply because they take a bullish view of a stock. If you believe they are wrong, then your attack should be on their analysis, not them personally.
  • It is not acceptable to accuse others of downramping simply because they take a bearish view of a stock. If you believe they are wrong, then your attack should be on their analysis, not them personally.
  • Those taking a bullish or bearish view on ANY stock must post some analysis or reasoning to support their view.


I would urge everyone to please report posts that are in violation of the above points, or the commandments as outlined in the first post in this thread. The mods or I may not necessarily agree with your assessment of a particular post, but all reported posts are looked at.


Your co-operation in helping to maintain the constructive atmosphere and quality of posting here at ASF is very much appreciated! :)
