Statement for the "core" group:

While acknowledging the necessity of a public IFXY board, trying to help the newbs or contribute observations here is feeling like a no-win (at least to me). I see so much effort expended by the mods to answer questions only to be labeled as "pumpers" whenever the stock drops.

Here's a sample timeline to demonstrate the type of investor that is hurting us:

1. First time board poster comes on asking about IFXY
2. Gets questions answered or directed where to look for info (iBox etc)
3. Doesn't read the DD. Tries to time their buy for a quick profit by asking the board, "Do you think the stock will go up tomorrow?
4. Buys stock at bid
5. Posts how great the company is when stock rises.
6. Uh oh, stock going down. "why is this happening?"
7. Mods try their best to answer those questions.
8. Fear takes hold. Sells stock at bid
9. At varying times before or after step 8, posts how terrible the company is or how it was being pumped. Those posts become fodder for the next sheep to start the sell cycle all over again.


Really, how is this helping the true longs? I know we have some obligation to be helpful...I just think maybe we are over-enabling certain types of people. If they can't read a few sentences from a link we send them, let's not keep dumbing it down for them. If they start putting up wrong or ignorant statements, delete the post instead trying to write out an airtight case why it makes no sense.

Really longs, I think we should accept to some degree, that IFXY just isn't for everyone. For the reasons I mention above, it doesn't not help our cause to refill the float with people that can't even buy or sell without hurting the price. I myself learned more about how to do that properly today.

I really think we need our own discussion group separate from the public one. Maintain a presence here of course to allow others of similar mid-set to find us. I know Regulus and draego are still buying as am I -- we probably have 40% of the float now not even counting BC's stake. BC, I'll PM you tomorrow with more thoughts about finally stopping this float leaking.
