I am Long time discussion forum student & spectator as weel as a POET investor and now first time contributor.

I have appreciated so much the interaction, candor and insight provided by the forum reagrding this technical investment journey we are all on.  I have learned much. 

Today however was tremedously disappointing as the political elements entered into conversation and the flames were fanned and a litany of posts were made that crossed lines.

This is NOT what we are supposed to do.  It does not matter where any of us stand politically and if we begin to interject piolitical positions into the discussion we all lose and the true value of the forum is diminished.

Crzyhors, I commend you on being the first (and only thus far) one to raise this issue as a definite off topic issue.

Fairchi.....You are a Hub Leader, correct...?  You know what the forum rules are correct....?  You were way off base in stirring up political aspects and owe the discussion forum an apolgy for the non leadership example you demonstrated.  I was taken aback by your contribution today.  I have always appreciated your leadership and insight.  Please refrain from violating the rules and get back in leadership mode.  We need you there.

Also, where are the other Hub Leaders?  Get back in the game and monitor the content more closely and do not fear corerrecting fellow Hub Leaders.

As for all, times are stressful  Overall Markets are shaking right now and we all want a POET breakthrough.  We need to remain united as best as possible and drive together to the finish line and celebrate success as a Team.

Remember, debates are good and are an indication of and exhange of intelligence.

Arguments are not good and are an indication of exchanges of ingornace. 

Politics have nothing to do with our focus on POET and are prohibited from the Forum.

We are close.  Let's not disintegrate now.

All the best going forward to all who contribute to the discussionforum.
