Hello Mark1313241

Again please excuse us for going over the ordinary again but we are sure you are aware, our attention has been brought to the Patriot Hub on several occasions this weekend and we are sympathetic to the challenges contributing members such as yourself experienced through this time.

However, we cannot continue to ignore the many complaints that have been raised as of late against you and a small number of other members. While it is not our goal to become involved in the “nitty gritty” of Shareholder Communities; after all nobody knows the story of Patriot more than yourself; being so, we wouldn’t be providing the community a great service if we didn’t take a moment and speak to you and the other parties about your recent posting activities.

As you may understand, both sides of the argument have been coming to us with mounting complaints about an alleged AGORACOM bias towards the adverse party. Let it be known that this is not the case; rather in an attempt to direct the forums attention back to matters of a material nature, we've deleted all topics and posts of a personal affair. A reminder of our six rules of use also adds to the mix.

It's obvious that one side cannot convince the other of their opinions, nor can we possibly mediate each personal conflict to determine who is right and wrong. What is clear, however, is that no matter what side of the equation you are on, all personal conflicts inevitably lead the forum into to an accelerating stream of emotional posts, instead of informative insights on the company's activities.

Bickering, Profanity, Name Calling, Accusations, Repetition, Posting any statements or issues that cannot be substantiated in any factual or tangible means and Off Topic personal messages on the Main Discussion board.

You have to keep this in mind when posting on AGORACOM; the EDIG HUB is a pool of thousands of viewers, and hundreds of dedicated participants; each with their own view and perspectives. We ask you to consider this in your future contributions to the forum.

Nobody wants you to stop posting. Please keep doing so and we will jump in as well to at least support the efforts of others. We took some time to post because we were hoping the issue would resolve itself quickly. Once we realized there was no quick fix, we had to let you and the other parties know.

Our assumption is that you get overwhelmed with things because you take them on with such passion. That is a great trait to have - until it starts hurting you.

Nonetheless, we hope you can at least try to co-operate with your peers and our admin’s. If you feel there is just too much of a gap between you and them, then try to discuss it privately as by kicking up dust on the forum serves nobody.

Just keep breathing a fresh air into the community, and ignore the flotsam and jetsam when you can.

Thanks again for your participation and contributions within the AGORACOM Community.

Regards,

AGORACOM
