in response to Flash's post OK, you win...
Here's what would happen if there were a STOOPID F*cking Commission-Free Saturday:
1. At least One (1) Trader would commmence Trading at RESET & Continue Trading Non-Stop (Liam Neeson style) for the next Twenty-Four (24) Hours Trading TENS of BILLIONS of Shares, perhaps even HUNDREDS of BILLIONS of Shares.
2. Meals would have been prepared the day before so that Trading could continue while eating. A few short Bathroom Breaks would interrupt the Trading Process.
3. ONE (1) DAY PROFITS would be in the TENS of MILLIONS of HSX DOLLARS if not HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of HSX DOLLARS.
4. ALL STOOPID F*cking Commission-Free Trading would have absolutely nothing to do with Movies. It would be strictly a PUMP & DUMP Scheme Exercise with no Redeeming Benefit other than PROFITS.
5. Traders not participating in the STOOPID F*cking Commission-Free Saturday could LOSE Massive Amounts of Net Worth.
6. Traders participating in the STOOPID F*cking Commission-Free Saturday could LOSE Massive Amounts of Net Worth if they did not understand how the PUMP & DUMP Scheme (Otherwise ILLEGAL) worked.
7. There would be Massive Swings to M/S Prices as HUNDREDS or THOUSANDS of Traders tried to GAIN PROFITS or CUT LOSSES.
8. ALL STOOPID F*cking Commission-Free Trading would have absolutely nothing to do with Movies.
9. Trade Restrictions could not be applied as many Traders routinely Trade TEN MILLION (10,000,000) Shares a Day or more. Traders have been known to Trade upwards of ONE-HUNDRED THIRTY MILLION (130,000,000) Shares in One (1) Day if Upgrading their Port after a Long Absence.
10. Nobody would Learn anything. It's a PUMP & DUMP Scheme Exercise.
11. It would be Impossible for any Newbie Trader to Learn anything other than possibly how a PUMP & DUMP Scheme Exercise works.
12. There would be absolutely no Benefit to the HSX Game.
13. There would be Massive DISADVANTAGES to the HSX Game as MASSIVE M/S PRICE CHANGES would certainly occur.
14. The Commission-Free Saturday is such a STOOPID F*cking Idea.
15. A STOOPID F*CKING IDEA.
Time to increase weekend site traffic & bring in new players...let's bring back commission free Saturdays. :-)

MASSIVE STOCK MANIPULATION. Exactly why do you think that it is not around anymore?

True...I guess players aren't as honest as like when I started...maybe for ports that are $2M only. :-)

Nonsense. Traders would be Following-The-Rules which would allow for Legal Stock Manipulation. Nothing to do with Honesty.

Well...just thinking of ways to add more traffic to the site, maybe gather more new players...let's just say I miss the old days here. :-)

That would be the 'Good Old Days' with Legal Stock Manipulation.

Essentially the Legal Stock Manipulation was a type of a 'PUMP & DUMP' Scheme which is a form of SECURITIES FRAUD - unless made Legal.

Perhaps you could run your Next Best Ideas past the HSX Board of Directors. Or Post them here - Be Happy to have a Look at them.

My brain doesn't come up with many 'good' ideas (like your legal stock manipulation as you referred to it, haha)

Spiking the Football was absolutely necessary so that Current & Future Promoters of this STOOPID IDEA could see what would Happen.
