I love the informative stuff on the trials, links to reviews and comments on the science. If the comments were balanced you might be persuasive. But the obvious bias that goes with so many of these pro posters is ludicrous. If you all just want to exist in your own positive echo chamber maybe you'd be better off with your own email group. If some of you repeated your behaviour on here in person you'd be (reasonably) branded repetitive, biased boors.
As for the "negative" posters the only criticism I'd make is that there's a bit of repetition without new content but generally they're just adding a bit of perspective to the mindless ramping of the cheer squad. If posters on here avoided hyperbole in the first place and didn't react like soldier ants to every perceived slight (which in turn evokes a response) following this conversation would be much more pleasurable.
As for the constant bagging of Madam, it's pointless. Unlike many of you Madam rarely/never posts "noise" unless it's in direct response to no value requests to "go away".
This should really come from the Moderators and I may be moderated for saying it but can everyone please be a little bit balanced and just post on the stock. Please.
I've read the reports and even have a moderate handle on the science but I'm finding it hard to reconcile the complex aspects of the science and value/funding of this investment with the puerile comments on here from some of its supposed supporters.

You can't require everyone to be balanced according to your views , because everyone will claim they're being balanced.
If there are an overwhelming number of negative posts, someone will counter that. To my way of thinking that's balancing the discussion. Or at least an attempt to do so.
It's axiomatic.
Glad the enrolment is complete btw!
