HSX POSTING GUIDELINES
Read and absorb to save headaches (for both yourself and others).
BEFORE POSTING:
° Read ALL of the forums back to the last time you read all of them (or 2 weeks-ish). This lets you know what is already posted, and will probably help you make money by learning something you didn't know.
° Choose the correct forum for your topic. Do not post about LiLo going into Rehab again in the Movies area
WHEN POSTING:
° Use English, check grammar and spelling. Do NOT use "TXT SPK 4 UR BUDS".
° Be Respectful. Do not post anything you wouldn't say to your mother/father, or face to face to the person you are speaking with.
° Do not post anything of an illegal nature, such as "<movie> can be downloaded thru torrent now".
° Your Friends are usually not a good statistical base to form a nationwide opinion from, though there will be topics that ask about your friends input, which are fine to add to.
TAGGING:
° DO NOT TAG an SBO (Star Bond) or Movie unless you know exactly what you are doing. Tagging is using the security name in brackets, such as [MVNAM], when this is done, the post also appears on the Movie or SBO page you tagged. Tagging influences the price of securities, and is therefore VERY regulated.
° Movie Estimates are posted by people with premium memberships to various places to share the numbers with users to make decisions. Only a couple of those agencies are allowed to be tagged as "official numbers", the rest from Variety or Yahoo Movies can be posted, but not tagged.
° In short, leave tagging to those who have been posting here for a long time. Once you have been reading the forums daily for a few months, you'll understand it better, until then, don't tag and get your post deleted.

I'm game ... anyone want to build on this? Maybe we need to make a wiki that people could update? Apr 12, 23:36
Also: Apr 12, 23:40
Also: Apr 12, 23:43
something like that could be helpful, however... Apr 13, 06:21
there's already a wiki even (link) Apr 13, 07:15
EZ to find is the utmost importance, maybe listed with the categories or something. {nm} Apr 13, 08:36
yeah so maybe something could be worked on in that space? Apr 13, 19:55
I applied to the wiki, but never heard back. {nm} Apr 13, 23:35
That wiki is really for former HSX players who migrated away from here when the site got upgraded and formed their own board. Apr 14, 05:39
