warning:its an understanding that investors hangout was created as an alternative to the basher site where bashers freely attack longs and longs responses are freely removed by the basher sites
if a post adds nothing to the discussion re the company or the market as it relates to the co and just impugns or attempts to attack /discredit longs-as,inter alia, an attempt to shut them up,such posts may be removed as a personal attack tou violation or off topic,with consideration given to the corpus/body/slant of the posters work to determine intent etc
if such shorters or bashers quote a longs post as the immediate basis for discrediting such- a tactic from the shorters handbook-that may be considered and weighed as part of a decision whether something is a personal attack because the only purpose often is to discredit/silence longs as an attempt to control the discussion- avail yourselves of the basher boards where founders are either allegedly involved in stock manipulation or found guilty of such-as opposed to hangout admin policy of avoiding transactions altogether
ideally posts should add something relevant to the company as opposed to an attempt by shorters bashers to control the discussion and discredit dd longs as an attempt to shut up dd longs

in the above the SEC has REQUESTED FINRA to report short sale volume- not impugned their reliability- which figures are always disputed by shorters and bashers- sometimes on the basis that reports are only of 1 leg of a transaction but that makes no sense as the sites say such can be covered within milliseconds-so it makes no sense to report 1 leg of a transaction as short as shorters claim finra does
also such figures do not report all naked shorts or non tape transactions
also some claim short vol includes mm's execution of a long transaction before buying the stock from a seller-again if such is covered within milliseconds it makes no sense for such to be reported as shorts
and although mm's exist to help provide liquidity it goes against experience for a mm to automatically execute a long transaction-we've all seen many stocks w no transactions for days- mm's wont execute unless attempted buys hit the ask as brokers and mm's claim the spread belongs to the mm- and such buys are covered within milliseconds in electronic trading so such logically are not short sales nor reported as such
the argument of the cost for retail to short is also dishonest for shorting groups are not bound by such restrictions or have the wherewithal to short stocks despite the pps
shorters bashers always seem to downplay shorting- partly as a misdirection to steer discussion away from the company but also because they are trained to discuss such as part of an effort to discredit dd longs who naturally would rather focus on the co rather an unending discussion led by shorters /bashers
its a never ending discussion and as noted above may be held off topic or a personal attack as an attempt to discredit or silence longs
