The most requested community in the past week: WallstreetBets
We've been following the situation, not wanting to release a WSB community without having their mods onboard. Well, we still don't have their mods on board. We talked to them in mid-2020, but never came to an agreement.
We hope that they don't get banned from Reddit (we'd pick up a good portion of that traffic, so don't do it, Steve.)
Having said that... the WSB Discord server just got banned (for hate, by the way), and it's very possible that the subreddit suffers the same fate...
Our unofficial WSB Win site:
https://wsbets.win/ or c/wsbets
We've had some well known WSB users reach out asking for us to set this up, and even some people who have been involved in the running of WSB, but to be very clear, this is NOT officially affiliated with the WSB subreddit (but we'll hand it over to them when they want it)
Update: WSB is NOT banned on Reddit. It's private, which is normally a decision by the moderators.
Short selling should be illegal. You're promising the economy an unspecified amount and when you and the bank can't pay it then the government has to. With purchasing stock you can only lose what you paid.
The government doesn't have to do a thing. The entity with the position can just go belly up.
The government won't allow that. It's only the big boys with billions of dollars doing that. 'It's too big to fail"
They don't care if you or me start short selling only to lose everything + more.
