ktim - I want to follow up that I enjoy the great majority of your posts. You’re an informed investor and you’re willing to share what you know and that’s generous of you. And even though I don’t feel we should be complacent about bashing (which undeniable bashing is almost impossible to objectively identify), I like it that you feel its a non-issue. I have respect for you so it’s hopeful and somewhat reassuring. Remember, just because I may be paranoid does not mean someone isn’t out to get me.

Well, stay vigilant everybody lest we be brainwashed by the nefarious forces. I know I will. The bashing on here is so tricky and subtle I really don't see it, but likely it's having an effect on me subconsciously.

There is a general belief (I’ll assert) that police and judges become predisposed to ascribing evil intent if for no other reason than frequent exposure to bona fide criminals. Most(?) of us may be subject to the same predisposition more or less because of our exposure to sensationalist tendencies in the news media and our personal experiences with fraud of every kind perpetrated against us in every communications channel and which is increasingly insidious thanks in part to AI.

Love your attitude. Wish I shared it.

You know you'll be brainwashed?

Congrats. You should do well as a good portion of the present company of Mods seem to be also cut of the same cloth. We need the balance so, I don't expect to see much difference in the quality or quantity of posts. It's just right as it is with you and the rest of the entire team.
I would just hate to see the site hijacked by heavy handed mods based on their investment style, on both sides bull or bear.

Hey cretin11 your first act as a board moderator could be to lock this thread.
