I think you are doing a fine job Hawkcrest.
Now, having said that, I want to make a few comments as to my reservations. I am sure Shar will find a way to get to the forums to attack me but these are my personal opinions and beliefs. Don't take them as attacks, just observations.
I have a few concerns. My biggest one is that you almost never participate in MD except to ask for money or deal with your bonds. Your participation is incredibly low.
To give an idea:
* Posting on MD for 2 years and 19 days
* Total MD posts - 60
* Total MD own bond/offering related posts - 57
* Total Other MD - 3
* You have managed to get onto the good side of some of the biggest MD critics (banned or otherwise)
This hasn't just been achieved through great communication, timely dividend returns and consistency. I think another big asset is that you haven't just been pushing higher and higher. People get concerned when they see people asking for more, and more, and more isk every time they give back the last amount. You simply seem to offer a bond when required for the amount required.
This is an asset. However, if I were a scammer this would be a very cunning tactic. This isn't calling you a scammer, far from it. But I think if you were, you would be waiting for the time to release a grand plan. The yield would be large as a result of endorsement/encouragement by some of the oldest old school players (Shar, Treelox).
Your limited forum posting indicates a lack of interest in the secondary market except where it suits your needs. You feel you have MD in your pocket, you can ask for anything and have it recieved. Your background is schmick (albeit barely visible).
You are either a smart scammer willing to sit back and wait as long as it takes for the ultimate yield, or you are an honest businessman who's offerings and investor servicing skills should be studied and emulated.
Anyway, this thread to me suggests a possible planned attack formation, start by getting your name into the heads of the newer guys, ingrained by the high praise of old guys so stage 2 can be released over the next few months.
I hope my observations are incorrect, we need more good investments like yours around. But I just have that bad taste I had when I called out both Ionia and Fastlearner against the screams of murder from the MD population. (I literally did get a death threat evemail from an MD poster for calling Fastlearner out)
