It's highly recommended that Users add [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=504 The Question and Answer Board] to the list of Favorites and follow the discussion there. In addition to [[Site Admins]], there are many knowledgeable & helpful Members who offer timely answers to questions that Users and Moderators have about the site.  In many ways, it is the "hub" of iHub.
Users here have many options to communicate directly with the [[Site_Admins|iHub Website Admins]].  Outlined below are the most efficient ways to get your questions or concerns addressed in the most timely manner,
 
* '''Report TOS Violation''' link found on every public post is the best way of communicating with '''[[Site Admins]]'''.  The violation reports go into a queue that Admin reviews frequently throughout the day.


Private Messages sent to [http://investorshub.advfn.com/secure/post_prvt.aspx?user=111041 IH Admin] appear in all [[Site Admins]] inboxes.  This allows the first available Admin to assist you. Choosing this route (instead of PMs to specific Admins) will likely elicit a more timely response as each Admin does not work 24/7Please include related links to expedite this process furtherIf Admins have to search for what you're talking about it is very time consuming and slows the entire process.  Many times if a PM is received without links you'll receive a reply asking for them. Your PMs to IH Admin will eventually appear in your Outbox as having been sent to the Admin who actually handled it, or in some cases the Admin to whom it has been specifically redirected for disposition. That way any further discussion of that particular matter can be directed to the Admin who originally handled it.
: On each post you will see “More. When clicking you’ll be given a drop down screen of various optionsChoose “Report” and the form is pretty self-explanatory.


The [http://investorshub.advfn.com/uimage/uploads/2009/11/17/xjzyaTOS_Violation.jpg Report TOS Violation link] found on every public post is another way of communicating with [[Site Admins]]. Clicking this link will provide a form for the member to advise Site Admins of alleged violations of the [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/Terms.aspx Terms of Service]. In addition to a list of possible violations, a comment section is provided that can be used to address your concerns with the specific post, or Member if appropriate.  (Note: Admin are the only people who see or have access to TOS Reports and the comments).
:* You can use the “Report” option to request your own post be removed if you accidentally submitted it twice or if you’re requesting an Author Removal.


If you wish to inquire about a post that has been removed, the means to do so are described on your [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/MyRemovedPosts.asp My Removed Posts] page.
:* Let us know if you see anything that looks extremely vulgar or pornographic.


How to include links in posts and PMs:
:* You and another Moderator disagree whether a post should be removed or restored?  Click “Report” and let Admin decide.


Go to the top of your screen where you see "address". Highlight (hold the left mouse button down as you move your cursor across the text) the entire line beginning with "http".  Right click and move the arrow down to "copy"Then place your cursor where you want this information to be copied, right click and select "paste" and Voila!
:* Someone appears to be doxing you or someone else?  Report the post and specify Violation of Privacy. If you are a moderator, after submitting the report go ahead and remove the post.

As described above, iHub provides numerous means for Members to contact site Admins and support staff both privately and in designated public forums. In addition to your communications regarding specific support issues, we routinely solicit Member feedback on site design, functionality, and operating policies and procedures. We encourage and welcome constructive input from our user community and routinely implement changes suggested by Members. However; we do not welcome disruptive or non-constructive communications, or attacks on iHub itself or our staff. Persons who find themselves unable to refrain from attacking iHub and/or its staff, including but not limited to 1) threats of reporting us to [insert list of the usual "name dropped" agencies here], 2) threats of litigation, 3) promises of ensuring our demise, 4) accusations of criminality, conspiracy, or any other alleged violation of law, or 5) vulgar or abusive PMs, should avail themselves of their prerogative to cease using the site immediately as we have no interest in hearing it. Those unwilling or unable to respect those guidelines will be asked to refrain and, failing that, will be shown to the exit.
: Note there is a comment section, so in most cases there is no need to send a PM to Admin after reporting and commenting.

'''These sanctions include but are not limited to suspension of and/or limits being placed on posting privileges at the website and/or individual board level.'''
=== Stock Boards versus Premium Boards ===


=== Premium versus Free Zone Boards ===
There are three different types of boards on Investors Hub:  1) stock-specific (has or had a trading ticker), 2) general investment discussion, and 3) topics that aren’t necessarily related to stocks or investing.
Boards in the Premium Zone simply mean that Moderators have more flexibility in managing the content by removing messages and banning specific users from the board although rare, Admin reserves the right to overturn any Moderator action on any board for any reason. Posting on these boards is also restricted to Members with Premium account features.


Premium status does not give a board license to blatantly violate the rules of the site. Any concerns with Mods or deletions on other boards still needs to be addressed with [[Site Admins]]. More latitude is offered to Moderators on Premium boards. For example, if two posters are having a heated debate that includes what might be considered a personal attack on Free Zone boards, the Mod has some flexibility to allow this. However; one sided deletions in this example are inappropriate. Additionally, using these boards as a place to launch personal attacks on other Users of the site is not allowed and should be deleted.   Premium boards are also not a haven to "archive posts in case they are deleted" and/or in the event they are removed. If a User feels a post has been inappropriately removed then their recourse is to request a review either through the automated system or by sending a PM to [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/post_prvt.asp?user=111041 IH Admin].
* Stock Specific: There is one board for each company, fund or crypto. Duplicate boards will be removed. There are volunteer Moderators (users like yourself) who volunteer their time to try to keep the community discussion about the board topic while allowing some friendly commentary along the way. Anyone can view and registered users can participate in the discussion on these boards. iHub Admins oversee the addition and removal of user-moderators on these boards.


If many of the messages on a Premium board fall into the above categories, the Moderators need to take immediate steps to rectify the situation and return the board to it's original intended purpose. Failure to do so will at a minimum result in moderators being removed and/or replaced as well as possible administrative sanctions.
* General Investment Discussion: These are boards without a ticker. The Moderators created these boards for discussion of sectors, price ranges, market value ranges, technical analysis, fundamental analysis, etc. These boards are usually in the Free Zone and available to all Users. However, some (original) Moderators choose to make their board “Premium”.  (In rare cases, Admin may change the board to Premium if the Moderators are not keeping the discussion primarily related to stocks.) On Premium boards anyone can read the board, but only iHub Premium subscribers can post on the board. The lead moderator on these boards, usually the board's creator, has the ability to add/remove assistant moderators.
 
* Other Premium Boards: These boards can be read by all Users. Only iHub premium subscribers can participate in the discussion. 
** Lounge Boards: These can be about music, cars, recipes, biking, TV shows - whatever you’re interested in talking about.
** Political Boards: If politics are your thing, there is likely a board for you here.

All Members have visibility to their recently removed posts and in most cases the ability to request a review of any removed posts they believe were done in error. For logged-in Members, the [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/MyRemovedPosts.asp My Removed Posts] page can be accessed from the [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/my_account.asp Settings] button at the upper right corner of the page or from [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/mailbox.aspx My Removed Posts tab]. These requests for review and comments go into a queue that can be viewed by individual board Moderators, Mod Squad and Site Admins.  If the message is restored it is automatically removed from the queue and the Author's [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/MyRemovedPosts.asp My Removed Posts] page.  If it is not restored, then an Admin will review and either restore the post or close the request. '' Mod Squad and Moderators can only restore posts in this queue, they cannot remove the message from being reviewed by Admin''. When a post has been deleted and subsequently restored, [[Image:Refresh1.jpg|Restored]] will appear next to the post in the message list. 
: [[Frequently Asked Questions]]
: [[Site Admins]]


At times moderators may receive a private message from Admin asking why you made the decision to remove a post.  Please don't be offended or defensive when asked.  Sometimes the reason chosen i.e. "personal attack" was mistakenly given and it was really supposed to be "duplicate".  Or sometimes the post appears to be discussing a public figure of the company, but it's actually a Poster on our site, not affiliated with the company.


A large part of Site Admin's role, with the valuable assistance of our Mod Squad members and Moderators, is to endeavor to have our rules of conduct applied consistently across the site.  Users need to be able to move from board to board and have a clear understanding of what is or is not acceptable. 
Stuff pending review:


Of course, mistakes are occasionally made and posts are removed in error.  When a deleted post is clearly not a [http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/complex_terms.asp Terms of Use] violation, most times it will be restored without asking any questions.  However; if there are too-frequent deletions made "in error" by the same Moderator, they will receive a private message to address the situation.  Moderators who are unable to act within the defined scope of their position will be relieved of their position.

Welcome to the Investors Hub User Handbook!

The Community Guidelines will help Users get a feel for the vibe we’re looking for when participating on InvestorsHub ("iHub"). It is not an all encompassing checklist of what is/isn’t allowed here, but rather to help people understand the community and how to easily participate here.

These Guidelines are applicable to Stock Specific Boards - i.e., boards that have (or once had) a trading ticker associated with them. Less stringent enforcement of many of these rules is allowed on general topic boards.

When it comes to investment discussions, iHub welcomes all opinions irrespective of investment sentiment. To do otherwise would be a disservice to the public interest.

Site Features

Stock Boards versus Premium Boards

There are three different types of boards on Investors Hub: 1) stock-specific (has or had a trading ticker), 2) general investment discussion, and 3) topics that aren’t necessarily related to stocks or investing.

  • Stock Specific: There is one board for each company, fund or crypto. Duplicate boards will be removed. There are volunteer Moderators (users like yourself) who volunteer their time to try to keep the community discussion about the board topic while allowing some friendly commentary along the way. Anyone can view and registered users can participate in the discussion on these boards. iHub Admins oversee the addition and removal of user-moderators on these boards.
  • General Investment Discussion: These are boards without a ticker. The Moderators created these boards for discussion of sectors, price ranges, market value ranges, technical analysis, fundamental analysis, etc. These boards are usually in the Free Zone and available to all Users. However, some (original) Moderators choose to make their board “Premium”. (In rare cases, Admin may change the board to Premium if the Moderators are not keeping the discussion primarily related to stocks.) On Premium boards anyone can read the board, but only iHub Premium subscribers can post on the board. The lead moderator on these boards, usually the board's creator, has the ability to add/remove assistant moderators.
  • Other Premium Boards: These boards can be read by all Users. Only iHub premium subscribers can participate in the discussion.
    • Lounge Boards: These can be about music, cars, recipes, biking, TV shows - whatever you’re interested in talking about.
    • Political Boards: If politics are your thing, there is likely a board for you here.
