Post# of 78243
I decided to reformat my REDG history using the filings so it would be easier to follow. I noticed the dates didn't stand out as I wanted and instead of leaving out some filings for example late filing notice, I decided to put all the filings in. Sorry for this long message but lots to say regarding what I'm trying to do and also the role as a moderator.

I will post the history reformat in my next post. I hope my format looks better and easier to follow. You will see the date followed by the report then parenthesis with the period ending date and a short note that I put together highlighting the main point of that particular filing. Underneath is the link to the filing in edgar. I then copied and pasted directly from the SEC filing. I am not trying to make up anything or direct anyone to think one way or another. I just wanted something more accessible for everyone to see, especially new people who may want more information without having to go through all the filings in edgar.

Of course there may be info that people thing would be important and I may not have copied it over, but like I said, I'm just trying to get a brief aspect of the filing and if people want more then they can just go to the link.

In some cases there won't be any copied and pasted material such as correspondence or SEC uploads.

Unfortunately I only have the new format up to April 2013. Hopefully I'll bet the rest by the weekend.

I also have all the notes in there. Some of those are longer because I didn't want to cut anything off, that way anyone wanting to see about past notes will be able to see everything that is listed from the filings.

Since becoming a moderator I have to apologize, I don't think I've lived up to the standard from the handbook. as it states here:

About Message Boards and the Moderators' Role


The principle objective of the iHub message boards is to maintain a high signal-to-noise ratio while encouraging the exchange of all points of view. Moderators are an important part of making our message boards beneficial to all participants and readers. Moderating a stock-specific board, particularly those which are controversial due to many divergent perspectives or newsworthy events, can be a challenging and time consuming role. The time and effort expended by our Members who volunteer their time to fulfill this valuable role is greatly appreciated and our Moderators should be treated with the respect they deserve for donating their time and efforts to the collective benefit of our community. Company-specific boards are the lifeblood of iHub. The Moderators' role is simple to define for company-specific boards:

To promote the civil exchange of on-topic dialog that complies with the Investors Hub Terms of Service.

It is no accident that neither the above definition nor the Terms of Service makes mention of investment sentiment, shareholder interests, or considerations such as "the good of the company." That is because the TOS are blind to investment sentiment. In order to be a successful Moderator and conduct a board within the scope of iHub's TOS, it is critical that Moderators distinguish their role and privileges as Moderator from their role and privileges as a posting Member. That is often easier said than done, particularly on active boards with both the typical and atypical controversy.
At the same time, Board Moderators are entitled and encouraged to express their investment sentiment in the same manner as any other Member; by participating in the dialog. However; insofar as their Moderator privileges are concerned, it is not the Moderators’ role to dictate bullish or bearish sentiment, to command the "tone" of the content be along any particular investment sentiment, or to favor one investment sentiment over another when removing or restoring messages.
It is also not the Moderators’ role to remove posts on the basis of "truth" or "accuracy". Readers determine the veracity of the posts they read and the credibility of other Posters. If a Moderator disagrees with another Member’s post they have the same recourse as any other User; to ignore the post, or to challenge it with a post of their own focusing on the information, not the other Poster.
In short, the role of the Moderator is to help foster an environment that promotes and encourages posting of ALL opinions and information about companies, regardless of the bullish or bearish sentiment of the posts, and to be the site’s first line of defense in ensuring we remain free of spam, vulgarity, and personal attacks.


As a moderator it states we are "not" supposed to "dictate bullish or bearish sentiment", which I guess can be difficult when one feels the company is more likely to tank, or more likely to run based on our opinions, DD, experience, etc...

I never claim to be perfect or that I won't make mistakes, but my intent hopefully will come through and that is to help people learn about REDG and they can make their own decisions - especially with the latest developments.

If you made it this far - thanks. thedocg
