#2511 RE: Bestfitter #2509

I'm going to go out on a limb here, which I rarely do, but here's my thoughts:

We have suffered for at least 3 years from basher attacks on this company, at Raging Bull and other forums. Desperate for a place to calmly discuss the merits (including mistakes) that our company has made in coming back from near death and bankruptcy, we turned to this forum, where the nonsense is not tolerated like other forums.

Bestfitter graciously agreed to donate his time to making this a place where rational discussion means something. In my mind, we owe him a thank you and more for his efforts. It's a volunteer position, nothing more. Anybody remember how Gateway_Stocks was running this forum before Tackler and Bestfitter brought it back?

Some thoughts have been suppressed, but I believe it was in the interest of keeping this forum alive and well.

Well done, Bob.

Perhaps my comments were not taken the way I intended. Best, I certainly appreciate you taking on the thankless task of moderating this board and I didn't mean to criticize you. So let me say thanks to you and the others helping to moderate things here (see it's no longer a 'thankless' task. 8^)).
As I said, I didn't see the deleted posts but it seemed curious to me that choad's posts were being deleted. He's become more negative than most but from everything I've seen him post there doesn't seem to be an agenda other than asking hard questions (perhaps in a snarky way, but hey, to each his own). And I think, as I have said many times, that it's rational and most appropriate to take a hard look at the things we're being told when the stock price seems so dissonant from the seeming progress being made at the company. Something doesn't jibe. When the juniors had a bounce recently we got zilch. Why is that?
In answer to your question about accurately defining 'reasonable criticism', I think it's any question or concern which is not obsessively repeated, which seems genuinely asked and which hasn't already been addressed (to that same person). How's that for nebulous? lol. I don't know, man. I just worry that we're all a bit too much like the proverbial donkey chasing a carrot on the end of a stick.
