I agree and have only one hope and that is this company come clean and do it in a public manner befitting the people who have trusted it and depended on it for the last couple of years.

I guess this begs the question....why did Noront actually drop sponsorship of this forum? I'm still confused as to the actual catalyst. Was it that they knew AG had manipulated their shareholders or was it them that was behind the manipulation.

This needs to be cleaned up and apologies to many need to be made. Having a free sounding board is easy to do. Having a sounding board of irriputable honesty and transparency is another. I think AG has to realize the seriousness of this employee's actions. To forgive is fine. The fact that this employee will be suspended is not enough as per the words of many here. To know he will be back in a few months means we haven't cleaned this up and I think that is the point to consider and seriously act on. I believe you are expecting us to think this poster was innocent of wrongdoing except breaking AG own rules. Many have a lot of money riding on these stocks and to have an insider playing them is a very ugly scenerio. You will have to deal l with it and you will have to prove to us it has been dealt with. And then you should be making personal apologies to those affected, removed or chastised on this forum...in addition to locating and requesting those who have left to return. I myself would not like your position right now whether it be innocent in nature or not. I personally think this was a individual gone wrong within a generally trustworthy company..who for the most part have backed the retail shareholders (was it for alterior motives??..I can't really guess right now.), but more importantly provided us strength as a group.

This has helped to break down the strength of the retail investors and for that I truly dissappointed. All I can say is I am sorry these circumstances have come to set the NOT forum back again. We must now decide if we want to become the force we once were or to pack it in and move on.

I am willing to consider the former as I hope most others here are providing you can make that happen.

Best regards,
