Since 1995 AllStocks.com has been here to help Traders and Investors.
This weeks unfortunate turn of events centers on a long-standing policy including, please do not promote other websites. Many of the sites folks try to post here you will notice they are ****** out.
Those sites have been found to be mostly sites that people feel they can come here and spam our boards with the promotion of the site or they are paid stock promotion sites and such sites are not illegal with proper disclaimers, but can lead to front loading. Allstocks strives for full compliance with all trading regulations.
There are many others who have came and gone over the years.
The bans centered on 1 poster's being a paid pumper and 3 others for pumping the same stocks after they had all bought in and or perhaps had been paid as well. Several were dropped for promoting a related paid-promotion site, and some were temporary restrictions while we investigated.
Allstocks condones neither paid-promotion sites, nor the practice known as "frontloading."
In cases of dispute, individuals are welcome to discuss the circumstances with the Webmaster.
Thanks for your understanding as we continue to provide a quality, ethical environment for the thousands of folks who use AllStocks.com everyday.

Where is everyone? Well, let's think about it. St.patricks day was the other day, everyone was drinking, eating, having sex, etc. Now there's basketball everywhere. Another words, most people have a life. I'm only home because I have to get up early tomorrow and try to sell a house!!! Everybody has to be somewhere......ha...glta!

just a question, when people come in and give DD on the stock and give a recommendation to buy a stock isn't that pumping also? The stocks i am in i will give out info and from that info if they wish to buy GREAT, i hope that they do. we ALL do. I just hope that there was concrete evidence that they were all "paid" pumpers. and i try to link charts and other things for DD purposes only but yet you won't allow that. most other sites allow that. it is like you are scared of the other financial sites or something. ne ways, i am off my soap box and back to scanning for monday morning.

Thank you Allstocks for protecting the integrity of this site!
I've been on pay sites and sites that allow paid promotion. You never know who to trust! Is this recommendation because they really think it's a good deal or because they got paid to give it good press?
I like a lot of the people who aren't here anymore (and, if they weren't the instigators, I hope they will work with Allstocks to come back one day) but I wouldn't want a blind eye turned to such behavior.
Kudo's for sticking to your rules and keeping this from becoming just another sketchy stock forum!
Thanks,
The Bigfoot

Thank you Allstocks for your diligence and concern. There are soooo many scammers out there and it is refreshing to find a place that is for our benefit and not for the paid promoters, pumpers and con artists.
BMWBoy - I see plenty of charts posted and DD. I don't know what you're alluding to. You can post DD and charts without promoting other sites at the same time.

Allstocks made a call...good one or not..it was a call that they needed to make...and it is good to know that they are looking out for the average guy and trying to keep a board "clean"
There were some Wonderful people that got banned...we all know who they are...some of those people won't be back not because Allstocks banned them...but becasue they are "insulted" to have been put in a catagory...A place that they may not deserve to be...I DON"T BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE THERE!
So please don't assume that all that are gone "were" up to no good...some maybe...but not all!
Allstocks had their reasons...right or wrong...

The question is were they banned for mentioning other sites or was it because they were "paid pumpers" and "front loading". Or both? Well, we all promote our stocks here usually after we're in them...but I do commend Allstocks IF these were "paid pumpers" dumping on the rest of us..

The only people who have the ability to make "front loading" are MMs. The other must take a risk to wait the runs for a long time. The usefulness of AllStocks.com is questionalable now after this event.

It's different when the usual JOE, no pun intended, has the same advantage as everyone else.
Every so often you see a real gem pop up, and you take advantage of it,,,,nothing wrong with that, but being paid for it and not reporting that,,,,,,, well that is an obvious problem.
I also like the many charts that are posted here from time to time, I hope they aren't subject to removal.

Well, the way I see it, to fill the small void left by a few good posters, we will see some new varity of con artists show up and try to fill that void so as to scam the Newbes for awhile, the green peas will lose some money and learn.. Same O same O
The best and most honest posters will move to the top [ new blood? ] and Allstocks will contiue it's march to the best the web has to offer!
How in the Hell do you know who is the most honest? LOL 'Specialy sense we all run around with aliases!

LOL, no kidding! The best guage I have is people that seem rational and post good/bad and ugly. But most of all I look for the ones that will admit to making a mistake when a stock is obviously acting squirrelly. I also try to watch how defensive people get when someone disagrees with them.
Even then, I only trust me when it comes time to hit the buy/sell button.
