It's up to all of you! Let's be honest for a sec. The vision is a great vision. And we as shareholders know, and knew the risk when we invested. So I for one blame no one for the risk I took.
That said, we as shareholders have the rights that we do for a reason. If we believe that the vision is sound, and it's the execution on that vision is lacking after these many years, we as shareholders posess the right to make a change via our votes. Even if the proxy votes and other circumstances leaves Steven as the CEO, and allows the board to stay in place as is we have no one to blame but us.
We have never put Steven (CEO) on the hot seat really. The stronger supporters have rights (like us) to vote whatever way they choose. But, and I say but, if you as a shareholder are unhappy with execution ... while it's nice to complain on this board (I do too), it's better to send a stronger message of disapproval with your votes.
10 years ago, everyone was a supporter. 5 years ago some got anxious. Now, after a second reverse split is planned along with an employee compensation increase is at hand it is up to the shareholders to vote their opinions. Even if the vote doesn't carry, it still will send a much stronger message to Steven and the board then complaining here would.
It's really up to you to see the proxy, be proactive with your vote and spaek your mind with that vote. It really does work if enough unhappy shareholders voice their displeasure.
