Nicely said lert.

I was trying to get this out but you did a lovely job of saying what I was thinking.

Thank you!

Good Morning lert!

I too was captured by the magic of this thread. It wasn't my reason for investing in DGIV, but the thread has made it much easier to stay the course over the various MM walkdowns that we have experienced. I sit here comfortable in my investment in DGIV because of the dd that we share and because of the support that I have received.

Annie and E'Lane talk of our "family atmosphere" and William and Mark about our other attempts at moving the thread and lert about the magic of the thread... what more can I add to that?

As I see it, there have been 2 reasons brought forth to move the thread. The first reason had to do with some unwanted posters. I have some thoughts on that:

First, we have been fortunate over the months to not receive our "full share" of Nays and idiots posting here. Sure, we've had a few, but not near as many as an awful lot of threads experience. Second, as RocketMan has suggested a few times, this is one of the most researched OTC BB companies around... there isn't a whole lot to say about DGIV at the moment that isn't a repeat of what has been said before. Perhaps we respond to the Nays and idiots the way we do because we are mostly all a bunch of outspoken cusses and want something to say and a reason for saying it! :-) We are firm in our belief in DGIV and share common values... when either of those are challenged, it is natural to stand up and be counted... to stand firm on our beliefs. Moving the thread is not likely to change that.

The second reason put forth to move the thread is to cater to the "new investor." We have already set the information thread up for just that purpose. True, we could be more diligent about making sure that we get out informational posts over to that thread. In fact, perhaps we could post our info over there first as a way of ensuring that it gets to the appropriate spot. However, an attempt to move this thread to another spot is likely to end up in one of two ways... we "corrupt" that thread too (as I believe we are pretty irrepressible) or the "magic" or sense of "family" is lost. The latter possibility is bothersome to me in that I believe that is also a draw to new investors, as well as a way to take care of the older investors.

In summary, I'd like to say that I also believe that we should stay and at the very least, redouble our efforts to post appropriate information to the info thread.

Lazarus, also having slept on it, but knowing it wasn't going to change my opinion :-)
