I think I would just let the facts speak for themselves. The learner believes that the board effectively entered into an arrangement knowing that VC did not have the commercial grunt to perform on the contract. You therefore must believe that the board entered it in good faith. If that was the case then the board is guilty of being commercially naïve by not engaging in appropriate due diligence. Either way does not auger well does it?

The fact is that there was no distortion or conspiracy in what the learner posted when he disclosed what he had found out by his investigation into the VC deal. The point of this forum is to provide alternative arguments and opinions. If I put people like the learner on ignore I would be a lot less informed when formulating my own opinion and coming to my own conclusions.
