You are lucky...How many will lose all they have or have already... I hope this thing gets real and all make their money. I just see problems.

V$gas... If what you were wrote were true about your losses, I doubt you would be here wearing your white hat. My paper losses are more than offset by other gains. I can sit here indefinitely, and lose my entire holding. With other stocks that were major pumps, I did well. However after I sold, I didn't go back to those threads and tell stories to try to "protect" those people who bought shares I disposed of. Many of those other companies had huge runs. I didn't purposely "hype" any of those other companies. I, like others, got caught up in the euphoria. I don't think any of those other companies will ever approach their former highs. TIGI's charts in contrast to these other companies have been relatively mild. The highs and lows haven't been as great. But the bottomline reality with any unproven company is that those who expect instantaneous success will be disappointed. The euphoric highs obtained by the CMGI's and others gave everyone get rich quick expectations. Those days are over. However, in reality, any unproven model takes time. Unproven models require a lot of testing. New and old companies make a lot of mistakes. Most people don't have the patience. Most people shouldn't be investing in what are essentially DPO's unless they can afford to lose their money. The real amounts you lost, you're probably too embarrassed to admit, and you also probably couldn't afford to lose. Your fanaticism is much more apparent than you're supposed good will. If I still wish to look for possible potential, that has nothing to do with "hype", such guarded optimism has more to do with diminished realistic expectations, a long time frame, and significant other sources of income that allow me to have what I invested here sit. Your zealotry, as well as your deragotory language more than knocks you off your horse. You can tell your side, that's fine....but why you need to be so incessant is the real question. The real answer, I'd have to believe is this is how you think you'll seek some sort of "moral" retribution for your financial losses you couldn't afford to lose. z
