I've actually deliberately stayed away as much as possible. Too many threads, too many posts and too much white noise. Thankfully there has also been some excellent research (both pro and anti) to help inform the punters out here. As for the mindless down-rampers who added nothing other than schadenfreude and insults, please find another hobby. My take on the current status quo is that we're now better prepared to understand information released by the company to make better informed decisions when trading resumes. In the future management can expect to be taken to task much more than they have until now. They certainly should no longer be treated as Gods who can do no wrong. Members who blindly attack people on HC with impunity for daring to question decisions by management can also pull their head in from now on, and I hope the forum will respond appropriately when this inevitably still occurs.
