To be honest, it really doesnt bother me. I don't know any of you personally and it's not my goal to make you my friends (no offense). I'm here only to look after my investments and preservation of my capital. I thought I'd sign up and give this forum a try and see what it's about, and furthermore, if it's worth paying to be a member of.

However, what I've gathered from posting on here for a few weeks so far, is that I believe people tend take this too personally (primarily just a few to be honest). A good example was your post just a few minutes ago. You couldn't make your point without becoming defensive and insulting. I'm actually not upset by it, don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to make you mad or insult you either, just trying to get my point across. Re-read what you wrote and tell me your emotions did not get the better of you.

In general, to me, it seems like a position 'against' the pro is generally not welcomed. To be honest, i think that's a shame. Because, what happens is, you really can't have an open discussion unless you only take a position 'for' the stock. It's unfortunate. People are free to "speculate" and "guess" about the stock as long as their belief is favorable. However, the inverse appears not to be true.

That's just what I'm observing. No offense to anyone.
