Welcome Optimistic Trader to IH's Strikeforce Message Board! As I extend the welcome I also want to share with you the underlying nature of our message board! We endeavor to provide a positive energy environment in support of SFOR, Mark Kay & his Team, our legal teams, IH ADMIN, and our members here. That being said, we encourage those that prefer to take issue with SFOR, etc., to do so over on IHUB! We do not provide or encourage an open concept forum allowing bashing, continuous venting, and/or other negativity here on this board. We feel as though IHUB is available to those with a need to post in such manner. If its not in tune with providing positive support for SFOR, etc., then it isn't openly welcome here.

Your post today covers both spectrums of support, positive & negative, but going forward we would like to separate the two items. Positive is welcomed here, and negative is openly welcomed at IHUB. Some will say "what about the view of the realists", which in our opinion leans towards the negative, and thus is treated as such. An occasional question/statement expressing concerns is tolerated/accepted, as long as the poster does not tend to dwell on the issue, or over emphasize it, as opposed to merely stating their concerns. If a poster establishes a pattern of only presenting such, without contributing any positive support, then we interpret that as failing to provide positive support/borderline bashing, which is against our stated goal here!

We don't try to accommodate all sides of the argument, because to do so opens the door for arguments/negativity which is more appropriate for the open forum of IHUB. Once that type of negativity takes hold, we would be overrun with such, just as such has occurred on IHUB. Our board here is a sort of refuge from that type of messaging, and we work hard to keep it that way.

Again, welcome to IH Strikeforce Message Board, and have a nice holiday weekend!
