Personally I don't think that post was a violation and would not have removed it. I also think it's fair to say that many hub leaders have removed or flagged and processed posts that other hub leaders would disagree with. (including you and myself).

However I do understand some of the frustration with this poster. Everyone has a right to feel how they feel and a right to express it, everyone has a right to own this stock whatever their feelings are. I just read the vast majority of 9 pages of this members posts and I really don't understand why they would want to own eDig (once again whether I understand or not it's certainly their prerogative). While there are some very valid thoughts and arguments I think I'm being more than fair in saying that the "vast majority" of posts are critical of this stock and management, starting from page 9 clear back in 2004.

Many who are no longer members here were repetitively negative, comments have been made that there are people who are hyping yet are still here. My pet peeve? constant negativity, I don't mind realism, unless of course the same realism is being "shoved down my throat daily". A pet peeve for all (almost all :) would be outright lies. For some, constant good news or speculation is a pet peeve (I believe some would consider this hyping). Phoenix7's pet peeve appears to be Daboss. As I've stated before if your pet peeve is one of these or any other violation of AGORA's rules, flag the post. For the next couple of months any post that is flagged for hyping I'm willing to step back and let AGORA make the call. You're right it is stupid, but it's been stupid for a long time. Flag the posts and let AGORA put this issue to rest once and for all as to whether or not it's hyping.
