I think I speak for most all of us here on this board when I say that we'll surely miss having you as mod, M. Personally, I feel it is an understandable move considering the vitriol that has crept into this board. There are a few who post here that I take the time to read, but I find more often than not I have been bypassing the posts and merely looking at the trading numbers. It is good to hear that you will continue to post as you have been. Your posts have been and no doubt will continue to provide valuable information, reminders, and insight into the core structure and direction of TPAC.
It can be a difficult thing choosing not to respond in like kind when a fellow poster snubs us for one of our personal opinions but it is the higher ground and it leads to civility. After all, when each of us posts here we are all merely expressing our own personal opinion. It doesn't make it right or wrong. So it's somewhat like shouting at the wind if we choose to go round and round or back and forth with a fellow TPAC'r. I believe this was one of the reasons that we appreciated this board so much in the beginning. It seemed like even when someone posted negatively, we seemed to be a little more tolerant back then. A wise king was quoted as saying: "The insight of a man certainly slows down anger, and it is beauty on his part to overlook offense. A fool immediately shows his annoyance, but the shrewd man overlooks an insult." Sometimes waiting to respond, especially when we feel someone is making a statement without knowing the facts, can help us avoid being caught up in the heat of the moment and can give us time to calmly put together a response based on some arguable facts, if we choose to respond.
I'll climb down off my soapbox now.
Once the revenue starts showing up on the books a lot of the negativity will more than likely fade away and this board will perhaps return to "the once ways." Expectation postponed is a tough pill to swallow for many. And with TPAC we have experienced some of this. When it comes to investing, although one can never be absolutely sure of anything, I believe in the statement that you've got to "know what you own." If we don't really know TPAC as a company, or because of the time that has gone by we have forgotten Bill McKay's vision of where he wants to go with it and what he's already done to make that happen, take the time to go back and reread Mysterium's posts. They will restore your confidence in the company and help you see why you invested here in the first place.
We're just a few months away from seeing something really great happen here. If we can just hang in there and consider M's excellent advice "to respect your fellow posters and their differences of opinion", I think the time will go by faster and all of a sudden you'll wake up one morning and you'll smile, maybe for the first time in a long time, as you open up your portfolio.
Until then, we await your next post!
