The problem is that most posters who are frustrated or who have an agenda (even if the agenda is merely to needle the more optimistic shareholders) do not exercise the restraint to convey a counter argument that is worded tactfully or in a way that encourages a respectful exchange of opinions. Too many times a legitimate counter point is made that is drowned out by one's penchant to assail the company or another poster.

They also don't realize that, although this is a free-form forum to provide pro and con opinions, the primary audience are shareholders, who generally want to see their investment increase in value. I've used the analogy before, but if you're in the home team's ballpark, you have to expect the wrath of the home crowd if you're going to challenge them without being respectful or without supporting opinions with facts.

That's just the way it is on all these boards...and this is nothing new.
