I tend to avoid commenting on emotion loaded threads such as this, because hardly ever anything good comes from it. Nevertheless, as Cryptostocks was refered to several times, it's time to speak up.

Cryptostocks seems nice, but, does anyone know if they are any more reliable?

Our concept is to have as little regulation as necessary on security listings, other than legality of the business model (drugs, weapons, etc. or for obvious reasons not allowed). It shouldn't be the Exchange's responsibility to judge financial viability of securities. It's the investor's right and obligation to do so, it's the investors decision in what he wants to invest it, it's the investors decision on whom to trust and whom not to trust. A verification system with various levels is available for each and every security issuer to choose from. If you don't want to be verified, then don't, but this is transparent to the community. Going forward we'll put in a rating system that highlights if or not a security is currently in violation of its contract terms, i.e. its not to be considered a buying or selling recommendation but merely another indicator to consider in the investor's decision making process.

I've spoken to cryptostocks, asking about enabling a method for assets to move from GLBSE easily to there, he had no interest.

The "no interest" is in respect to "take all securities that get bumped of GLBSE". Before we mass migrate securities, I'ld like to get a better understanding on why they are being delisted. If it is only about ToS and verification, then those securities are more than welcome, if it is about proven ponzi schemes and frauds, then needless to say that Cryptostocks doesn't want them either.
As I mentioned above, in general anyone is welcome to list a security. If you need a new home for your security, contact me and I am sure we (Cryptostocks, GLBSE and the security issuer) can work out a workable solution in the interest of the shareholders.

Thank you.
Cryptostocks might be small at the moment, but it seems to improve quite fast and in a good direction. A Developer Log for example is a good thing. Although the biggest hurdle of leaving the uncertain status to become legitimate, is likely still to come. GLBSE might be the giant here, but their developement is a bit slow, almost as if it is a one man show, sorry. At some point, nefario has to pursue division of labor even more, so that he can concentrate on more important things than goatshitstorms.
Improving communication would be another good step. An E-Mail or a message within its own message system about the fee change for example or even the plan to register in the UK, would have been very pleasant (i know, captain hindsight Wink

). It feels like this forum has become to much of a platform for haters with to much free time. Of course, it is open for everyone (good thing) and every thought, in a lot of crazy minds (which is also a good thing, because some of those crazy new thoughts might be the best sometimes). But filtering useful information takes more and more time... So leave the forum for brainshitstorming and communicate more with your own platform please.
MPOE might be "succesful" until now, but I think they are doomed for isolation in the long run, since they show nothing but ignorance towards complains.
