I am really pissed about you Priggly. This board is not Yahoo board. You cannot use agoracom like Yahoo board
In Silvercorp case, the court indicated the "rumors" posted on the yahoo board were stated merely as a possibility and not an absolute certainty, and that the anonymous publishing likely reduced the perceived veracity. But the company is now arguing that the false claims against the company "were solely intended to manipulate the market so that profits could be made from short selling." That appeal is still pending.
You are not on an anonymous board, Prigly. Writing false rumors either because you are a basher or because you are misinformed is harming the company and us, long time shareholders.
