What? Assuming you're talking about me, I haven't been on IHub in years. I do have a separate board here, that a few of us created for venting and asking questions. At the time, we weren't allowed to even ask a simple, perfectly legitimate question on this board. It's a little more complicated than that...it used to be called Meow's Musings, but that's another long-ish story. You really should at least do an iota of research before you start saying things about people.
That said, I fully admit that on the separate board I have gotten more and more vitriolic over the years as my frustration and disgust has grown exponentially since we fell into this downward spiral. I have been invested in NTEK for close to seven years now (not exactly but close). I've never sold a single share (much to my hindsight-is-20/20-chagrin) and I'm down 99% from my original investment. If I post something negative, it's out of frustration because I felt like they were making bad decisions or people were spewing nonsense. It wasn't just about me. We all got screwed on this. We have been treated as badly as a company leader could treat investors. It's staggering the amount of times I have seen responses that sounded like the investor was a burden and the post is more akin to a Facebook troll than an executive.
I take the blame for my loss. I was too new to investing to know to bail when I felt things weren't going the right direction anymore. It was my fault for believing what we were told. I do think, and I am not taking much of a stand here, if everything had progressed the way most of us were hearing about and expecting, we probably could have done pretty well for ourselves. Live and learn. We all want this to succeed, and I hope and pray it turns around, but every time we get a failed promise or another lie, it gets harder and harder to believe it's going to happen. If you think that's a "sleaze behind a swamp drenched curtain," that is your right.
