To Style I would say: I can understand your anger or you being upset because of the attacks that keep creeping up now and then, especially from the cheerleaders that start attacking members that have a different view and opinion. (including namecalling and referring to trolls, this TG forum etc etc).
I have been a member of PI, and later PIPS since October 2003 and I will still argue, and I did argue on the original PIPS forum that I was not impressed with PIPS business practise and their management. Gary was a big joke!...unfortunately Bryan realised that too late I assume?....and guess what?....all the cult members and cheerleaders came forward and started their guriella warfare or quick ambush attack.
I knew I was right even at that time!....who told me that?....the answer was MY EXPERIENCE!...nothing more nothing less, smile!
I knew that the risk was high, and during my DD I found that the management was not willing to explain or open about their business model or business concept. (especially the security of AV and picpay). I never got an answer and decided to play my little investment and withdrawal game;..."money in and money out very quickly"...not even letting the funds remain in Available funds or picpay!...too high risk!...and to me it was a wise decision and good news!
It is interesting to observe the cheerleaders responses and their attitude towards PIPS, definitions like "brilliance", "out-of-box", "trust", "PIPS will be back".....the closest I get to a "dream world" and religious cult behavour.
To me PIPS is and was a total fiasco (when things go wrong. Really wrong. When you leave the normal realm of human error, fumble, mishap and mistake and enter the territory of really huge breakdowns) and failure!...
Healty debates and different mindset is actually bringing the world forward! ..and I am the first to admit it is not easy to remain balanced and keep the discussions on a straight line!
I do respect all members, their views and opinions including the cult members, and cheerleaders that gospel the PIPS music. However I do not respect those members that start throwing names as "troll and TG cult" at members that have different views. Who is right and who is wrong?....smile

I told you so to see if you will be able be man of word. I guess not.
I am glad now that I did not share anything with you , seeing that you are person capable switching flags as battle goes on.
Something inside was telling me that to be careful what to share with you.
On beginning of your exposure to forums you were presenting yourself as Pips supporter and anyone that said anything opposite you attack them. You were picking good points from "good" members.
Now you switch field and since info by Bryan is not good enough for you, you star bad mouth anyone that protect integrity and loyalty to Pips. Also you are after Bryan for revving to you so call "Truth".
With your current action you pick up opposition rebels as your support and that is your support crowd for now. I can see that you are very successful in that.
Well, us cheerleaders as you call us, are people of decency and good character that are not to be sold for bad propaganda. We trust Bryan and this forum is suppose to be for good Pipsters that are same minded, with strong feeling that Pips is still with us. Nobody is forcing you or others if you do not like way this forum is expressing itself.
You do not call people names and degrade them just because they do not think were you are. So bottom line is we will always have two sides of opinions.
You are fine to expose your views but not in level way you normally are doing.
People have rights to be treated as intelligent human being and with respect.
Now let's cut back and forth discussions, since leads no were.

Tone it down and keep it polite and you can post your thoughts, positive or negative.

My problem is to understand members that are acting and having very strong opinions, based on their dreams, wishes, feelings, BELIEFS, financial needs, community feelings, and unfortunately not based on facts;.... like "PIPS versus what is the norm in the financial investment community", and the simple fact that "PIPS is at payment default exceeding more than ONE year". Funds being frozen is a serious threat to survival of any company and especially a financial institution. My personal opinion is that BN would not have frozen PIPS or picpay funds unless there are some very good reasons, and I hope that we will all soon know!

It's all about respect
I understand that it makes some furious when others seem to rail against the things that are extremely important to them.
For some it may only take someone coming against the management, planning, communication, or lack thereof, of a person or organization that you stand behind 100%. For others, it may simply take someone attacking them for having and/or voicing their independent opinion.
The bottom line is that we all must give each other some lattitude, not attitude.
We have to bring RESPECT back to the table if we are going to be able to have any reasonable discourse. We don't have to like each other's position, but we should respect their right to have that opinion.
There hasn't been a lot of constructive conversation on this thread as of late due to the name calling and other screaming and hollering and vulgarity. It is not constructive for anyone to be snippy, snide, or otherwise just looking down their nose at someone else for whatever reason. It only makes them look bad.
For the cheerleaders, I agree that IMHO, BM will bring some version of P***
back. It will probably be better than ever, because BM has shown resiliency.
He can adapt with change and he seems to try really hard to make his dream live. However, he, just like the rest of us, has flaws. I'm not trying to be hard on him. It's just the truth. I support him in his endeavor 100%. When Kim came looking for emergency support for him, I tried to help and she seemed to be very appreciative. I appreciate that.
For the INDEPENDENT, I know that it gets your dander up to see a mere human worshipped. It kinda messes with me, too. I believe that it could actually cause more harm than good for people to set BM up on a pedestal.
God don't like anybody there but Himself, so like the tower of Babel, he could make everything fall apart. To not be able to vent about your frustration on the website that is almost inextricably linked to your area of frustration is sad. However, venting is one thing, disrespecting is another.
I have taken exceptiion to rich333 and everwise and others because it seemed as if they could not address someone that was not like-minded with any sort of civility. They had to be condescending, sarcastic and just plain uncouth.
It is evident that most of the confrontation seems to be coming from reasonably intelligent people. Please, lets act like we're in a social forum with our wives and children standing about. (There is a great cloud of witnesses)
Let's teach others, by example, the art of civility.
May His best be yours in 2006

Read up on what he has posted here. He's got enough in his hands to bother with a website.
No, Bryan does not need to put up a personal website.
