New Wave: I think being dismissive of Cypher's posts for the reasons you cited is not a great idea.
Cypher provided clarity at a tempestuous time in Wave's troubled history. I suggest you review them and perhaps compare them to some of the highly optimistic scenarios put out by supporters that were not close to reality.
Player's notation of the folly of dismissing ideas because of perceived "negativity," rather than veracity, is part of what led to such grievous losses with Wave.
As someone once in a similar position, I heard and saw my accurate information from inside Wave quickly shunted aside by respectable and intelligent people. Why? IMO, because they believed and wanted the Wave dream to be true and anything that even smelled faintly of negativity was immediately quarantined or discarded altogether--regardless of whether it was germane or not.
The truth was, Wave was rotten at the core. That was the undeniable truth, yet a whole group operated to keep this truth from being known. SKS, inept in every way, 'became' a "genius," when his deficiencies were clearly on view for all to see.
The rampant and growing nepotism was excused by this group saying, "Will any of that matter when Wave hits $100 a share?"
So, in a sense, it seems we are walking down a familiar and threatening boulevard when we criticize any piece of information on the basis of its negativity valence, rather than its actual value in the evaluation of this stock.
