I like Zen, I've read all his posts and DD(to the best of my knowledge) and I agree for the most part with this one.
However.....I feel he wrote this in frustration and the name calling seriously diminishes the credibility and impact of his pleas.
With having said that I and perhaps some of you as well can understand the anger felt over other certain individuals seemingly going out of their way to sabotage timely events that MUST unfold on their on accord. Not forced or prodded but in due time as per Roger and Urbans wishes.
Some of these "so called" shareholders have given us a black eye and shot themselves in the foot in their "rush to be first with the news."
To me this is upsetting as well because they are messing with YOUR investment as well as MY investment and I take the financial arena very seriously.
In all fairness this is shall we say part II of Zens post, written I believe with more clarity than the first.
For those who have already seen this please read again.
Thanks

ADDENDUM TO MY EARLIER POST.
Well, I certainly knew it would be controversial but as I said from the start, I'm not here for a popularity contest.
A few points of clarification after reading some responses:
1. I did not say Urban said anything inappropriate. In fact, in all likelihood, I believe he did NOT say anything wrong at all. His MP3 when he called in specifically referenced Roger's gag order and he obviously knew not to say anything. My issue is not with Urban having said anything, it is much more with some claiming he did (when he likely did not) and with details some seemed to directly or indirectly attribute to Urban. But that's why I believe having Urban there at all was simply wrong. Too much room for "interpretation" and we do know Urban is an overly social person (my concession to those who felt "windbag" was too harsh), especially when a supposed PR was to come out and now we are left twisting in the wind wondering if we'll get one before Monday.
2. I do agree that most everything posted or spoken through Paltalk was hearsay. And weak hearsay even at that. And none of it likely actually said by Urban. But with nearly 2 full days left of racing when I posted earlier, it sure felt appropriate to BE CERTAIN that if there were anything leaking that it stayed off the boards completely. I will not apologize EVER for making that point.
I notice already not a lot of information coming in from Denver today. Is this a BAD thing that we simply wait for the official company PR to come out as it should be?? Let's enjoy the funny car, let Urban and Roger reveal information to us when appropriate and let's behave in a way consistent with a REAL investment that may actually change our lives. Can this really be an area where one could be TOO overcautious with so much at stake? To those that agree with me, thank you for your support. To those that don't, hopefully my true message at heart will sink in. CMKX is still a wonderful investment. Let's just be very, very, very, very careful. Yesterday appears to be no harm, no foul, but was still of great concern to me. Glad to see today (and hopefully tomorrow GO JEFF!!!) is calm, cool and much more responsible.

As always, these are my personal opinions.
Hopefully nobody in here is investing anything but "fun" money that they can afford to gamble with.
