Grumps! Listen. You've got a strange idea of what it means to "trash" someone. Offering a point of view in a relevant, tenacious and even aggressive manner is not trashing someone. These types of posts are important and need to be honest and up front and there's no reason to take them personally. This is about money we've invested. When people invest money in a company which makes assurances and promises to them, you can be damn sure some of us are going to follow up on inconsistencies and other concerns. I, for one, have posted very positive and complimentary messages regarding Shorts, but I don't appreciate when the questions get tough he can conveniently ignore them by saying childish things like "you don't like me" like we're in 3rd grade.

Sometimes the questions will be tough, sometimes they will be easy. But you don't (as a paid INDEPENDENT REPRESENTATIVE) say childish things like "if you don't like me" or "stop complaining". I've got a better suggestion: if your a PAID INDEPENDENT REPRESENTATIVE do your effing job and have enough respect for investors to take the time to answer relevant questions -- or as Sman said "fess up" if you were given bad information by the company. Again, let me remind you: I owe Shorts nothing. I've never met him and don't know him. I'm sorry if it sounds unfriendly but it is not. This is business, not a tea party.

I absolutely will not be quiet about these things just because you think this is courtesy class. Yes, sometimes the posts, I admit, can get a little unfriendly. But ask yourself if you really think that being unfriendly is the purpose of the post or just someone trying to get information they need. Thank you. GLTA.

Oh, and by the way, it's the tough questions that improve a company's profile over time. It's important for companies to hear the complaints and concerns of a few who are doing the heavy lifting for others who are too "polite" to ask the same questions -- even though they're thinking them.
