Sorry. I forgot my sarcasticon. Let me elaborate.

What we have here on this site is a community of people who have read (sometimes waded through) hundreds if not thousands of posts about POET technologies. The internet is often a treacherous place to navigate, especially if money is involved. This forum has given us a chance to evaluate otherwise anonymous online posters by the quality and consistency of the information that they've put forward over time. We've each made up our minds about who we can trust by filtering the countless (online) interactions that take place here each day. Kinda like real life.

Does that mean that new posters are sometimes judged guilty until proven innocent? Sure, but then again, why not? Very, very few new posters bring pertinent or useful information to this board (and I include myself in that group). Those who do, quickly rise to the position of "trusted" advisors by the merits of the content that they post.

I spent years reading Stockhouse groups about this stock and others, and honestly never once felt that same level of confidence that the people on the other end of the keyboard could be trusted, or at least be given a reasonable chance to prove themselves trustworthy without sinking into the constant quagmire of trolling and ulterior motives.

Are there some personality conflicts here? Absolutely. Would I trade it for Stockhouse. Not in a million years.

Cheers,
