HotCopper could do with a fact checking facility with a user reliability rating. Posts here are often unsubstantiated and a clear alteration of the facts. If a post could be sent for fact checking with the poster losing points off his reliability rating if the post is non factual and gaining points if the post is factual then anyone reading the forum could know whom to trust more. I know it would cost HC a lot but if it was put in place HC would be taken more seriously by investors. If HC does not do more (I know they already try but a lot gets through) to police the obvious attempted manipulation shown here someone else will probably start a competing website that is a neutral and factual platform for share discussion.
