Way back when I first started playing this game, I had multiple ports and TPTB caught me trying to game the system.

Like you outlined, I used the extra ports to manipulate penny stocks, making them go up and then go back down and riding the wave with my 'real' port. Who cared if I was wasting commish on trades with the fake ports?

With no warning, all ports but one were deleted and the one remaining was docked 25% of net worth, including cash. I had like negative nine or ten million in cash. I had to sell half of what was left to have any cash.

You might be able to get away with multiple ports for a few weeks or a few months. But you will be probably be caught, you will probably have you port docked, and you will feel probably like an azzhole for cheating. I sure did.

The least you could do is give us one last free weekend to set up our ports, even if it's just Sunday morning or something shorter. grory Sep 22, 12:17

I have no problem we can all cheat or play fair that is on our own morals; however there should have been some warning on the calander! {nm} damenchipguy Sep 22, 18:01

I made my plays on Sat. and it will hurt my port on shorts I picked up, had I known I may have played differant {nm} damenchipguy Sep 22, 18:03

I will have to play with a higher droi instead of weekly(some trades), thats okay but a heads up would have been the right thing to do {nm} damenchipguy Sep 22, 18:05

'bout time. {nm} remrej Sep 22, 12:42

Well this blows! Have you guys ever heard of the saying "Locks are for honest people"? The Cheaters WILL find a new way to cheat! HuskyMiller Sep 22, 13:33

Good post and you are correct. People still cheated during the year long (I think) period we were without commission free a few years ago. grory Sep 22, 13:44

Well said. The are lots of options that can be done before spilling the blood of commision free days . Plus this will have consequences. Guillo Sep 22, 17:58

well said. build a better mouse trap and they will build a better mouse. {nm} eyescovered Sep 22, 13:55

I think we can live without free trades. Stupid Flanders Sep 22, 14:00

So a few greedy billionaires complain about nor profiting from multiple stock flips and the solution is to punish 1000s of small ports? LonePirate Sep 22, 16:48

The end of commission free along with the launch of CX Derivatives in the planning for weeks. {nm} Antibody Sep 22, 18:07

So what kept HSX from letting us know BEFORE hand? CX derivitaves news release was piss poor, plain and simple. remrej Sep 22, 18:21

LOL......completely agree. {nm} Broiler Sep 22, 19:37

Commish Free Still For Bonds? Broiler Sep 22, 19:37

Because TPTB did not decide to launch until this week. {nm} Antibody Sep 22, 19:40

Then shame on them. Weeks of adv. planning mean nothing if those affected by the change are given 0 time to react {nm} remrej Sep 23, 08:57

They have been looking at this for some time. Wasn't because H-Mogul brought it up. Me, I don't care one way or another. When I had an Catzan Sep 23, 12:25

THIS NEWS TOALLY SUCKS! {nm} icecreamman Sep 22, 20:55

i think it's not fair to punish all traders because of one or two dishonest people. how sad. i will certainly be trading less. {nm} extepan Sep 24, 04:33
