<ot> daaan - there are several reasons why people are negative. One, they have such an altruistic personality that they are genuinely concerned. Usually, they point out the follies of the thread with facts to support them. Two, they have ulterior motives, such as being a short seller or disgruntled ex-employee. In this scenario, SI probably serves no purpose to them except to allow them to vent their anger. Three, being negative is inherent in their personality. Except the 1st type [incidentally, there are quite a few of them here on SI,] reasonable discourse is not possible. So, don't worry about people who cannot sustain a civil and rational discussion, let them do their things - and hope they are satisfied and they will move on.

best, Bosco
