For folks not familiar with Agoracom, the discussions here are a huge improvement over what goes on at Stockhouse.  There are six rules of use.  (click "RULES" in the upper right).

Among other things, it means no derogatory comments or personal attacks (at other users or BTI management).  No off topic posts. No bashing or hyping the stock.  And no repetition of the same complaint, question, fact, opinion.

BearDownAZ does a good job as moderator.  And if posters violate the rules, all you have to do is click "Report Violation" and Agoracom will deal with it.  From what I've seen, they don't hesitate to remove posters and all their posts.
