Note to all investors/potential investors: Subscribe to the mailing list "PSI Mailing List" for important updates and announcements!

How I handle this is I have an investor welcome "packet" saved via the ingame notepad. When I accept a new investor I add them to the allowed section of the mailing list. I then go to eve mail them, copy the welcome packet, and paste off to them.

It is far better to control who you interact with. Having an open mailing list only asks for any troll to join in and any non-interested party to lurk(snipe) needlessly.

As has been advertised by myself and others of late trying to smear my appearance I have had plenty of bad calls in my time too (read: C-P-H IPO) and I don't consider myself incompetent as a result.

IMHO, if you didn't jump in to defend people, or just add your comments, so much... you wouldn't be in line for so many punches. I think this spat between you two should not have started, went overly long, and is a total derailment. (Tsk, tsk, shame no you two)

That being said, go back to your respective corners and simply wait for the next round. During the break try to arrange it so that there is not a next round.

Thank you and goodnight.

Instead of joining into a ****ing match with justifiably upset people you need to be delivering a clear message as to what you intend to do. As it is it seems like you intend to make enemies of the people who trusted you. All the other matters raised, no matter what was said, is your fault. Lack of communication, of any kind, is a fertile ground for hostility. Reap the harvest.

In essence, you've lost investor confidence.

You've only got one real option and that is to close down. However you are not striking me as someone who is in the least bit concerned about your credibility and/or succeeding at this ipo. You've gotten what you wanted and I think you are going to abscond with it.

And that's the risk when people don't insist on strictly professional behaviour from their friends: they lose the moral right to insist on it from others. I half-expect another unfortunate precedent to be set by EBank this month, but I'll hold fire on that until/unless it happens.

---

I'd like to know what Ebank precedent you think has been set? If you are talking about some affair involving Ricdic and LaVista... that was their own business prior to Ebank opening at all. So, um, I'm unclear as to what you are talking about?

BTW if this is going to have you and Ric start up that old (sh/p)outing match between the two of you, please consider my question withdrawn.

Please read the entire thread and make suggestions based on new ideas or building upon points that have been raised already. It is very difficult to have intelligent discourse when we lose the thread of the discussion.

---

A suggestion?

Synthesize down the points made in this thread and start a brand spanking new discussion thread all of its very own. Using the ipo thread itself to try to handle various topics quickly becomes burdensome as the pages just grow and grow. Isolate the topics into their own discussion to avoid clutter.

Anyone wants to post on another topic can be directed either to a thread covering that or to a new thread on that... perhaps even a hearing petition thread. If they continue, state you are ignoring their posts unless they post it in >link< thread.

If you worry about losing track of topics you can always update your original ipo thread with a small index of "official matters" brought before the "board" as it were.

Pardon the humor here, this is not a troll, but is anyone else noticing that the PSI motto "Reach for the sky" is also the first words of an old fashion western hold up?

/me imagines Wylker walking into the Market Forum. Wylker chews some tobacco, spits, pull his gun shouting, "Reach for the sky."

Please CCP, can we have some clarification on how the whole share voting system works?

And what makes you think that they know?
