Medinah Minerals (MDMN) - 2016 Q3 - General Discussion (recovered)

Kevin, thank you for all the hours of research, meetings, shepherding, personal sacrifices, and extensive due diligence you have done over the many, many years.
I have no doubt that you will remain objective and professional in your communication with shareholders. This truly is another new transition page from past &%%%* we have endured to a professionally run exploration and mining company. I would urge those shareholders who find so many faults, to stand back and look at the overall pattern of Auryn’s takeover. This is real progress, not an instant fantasy solution for the future.
With great respect and gratitude,
Peter

What Peter said.

Thank you Taff

The bantering between shareholders on this board is by far the most Romper Room thing in Medinahland these days, imo.

Kevin. I hope you continue your objectivity in this new role. Is there a chance you will continue in this capacity until we are bought out?

We could not have anyone who cares more about the shareholders than Kevin. Also remember I can’t type or read what I have typed any more

“To all of you, it was a pleasure sharing with you, sparring with you, and offending you. :wink: Seriously though, apologies to those who I’ve rubbed wrong. Unfortunately sometimes that’s how families roll – and even though I’m now advocating from a different position – you’ll always be family.”

Thank you and good luck. You will still be helping us maybe no so much on Mining Play as before but your voice will still be heard and now more louder than ever.

MEDINAH is pleased to announce the retaining of Kevin Tupper as interim Communications Director.

“My goal is to ensure timely, clear, and transparent communications to MEDINAH’s shareholders while AURYN successfully explores, develops, and exploits the Altos de Lipangue mining district”, stated Kevin. “I am delighted to help the company in this way. As a 25% equity holder in AURYN, MEDINAH and its shareholders have a very bright future. “

I apologise if my harsh comments offended you. It’s seemed obvious that you had become involved in our new communications. I’m totally confident that you have common shareholders best interest in mind. However, updates addressing past rumors are very digressional. Some of us have been dying to get the old BOD out of the picture. Yesterday’s update brought it front a center. I’m certainly not going to tell you how to do your job but it seems that simply following AMC’s updates is the best way to receive accurate and timely updates on this investment. I’m sure you’ll find some other, creative ways, to keep people informed but really hope, in the future, you steer away from the stale rumors from the message board. Let me know if can provide any help.

I’ve addressed these before and, given that most of you posts on this board seem to focus on my “tact” vs. anything meaningful to the investment, I’m surprised you don’t already know this.

  1. I’ve always said the “mountain will succeed despite management.” I continue to think that.

  2. I initially got involved because I thought the BOD would no longer be involved (one of the many BS JV rumors).

  3. I grossly underestimated the extent of the BOD’s incompetence. I knew Les was a crook but I did not appreciate JJ’s shadiness. An error on my part.

  4. I grossly underestimated the gullibility of the majority of the shareholder base who willfully believed all of the crap being said by the board. My perceived frustration with some shareholders stems front the fact that this passiveness directly contributed to the bloated capital structure and hole we are now digging ourselves out of. Yet, many of these folks are still the most active posters on this forum.

Welcome to penny stock land. I’m not going to say it hasn’t been educational but I don’t think I’ll be making another trip.

Kevin, thanks for taking on your new role with Medinah. I will sleep better knowing that MDMN shareholders have someone we can be confident in to look out for the shareholders’ interests. Thanks for all your efforts up to this point. You are a good man.

John;

You bought 448,307 shares of Cerro, congrats.

John,
As you should have ascertained over the years is that many cannot learn from the post because they cannot get past the tone of the post. I have personally dressed up more post than I can count just so that your very informative posts could stay up instead of being deleted (I let many stand if there was a post directed your way you felt it necessary to respond to), I know you do not appreciate this but I would rather have the info on the board. You have many supporters, some who like you’re writing style, many who do not, it is up to you how you respond to this critique, but please in the future no more personal passages that implies other posters are not as important and involved as others.

As to your points…

  1. We now have new management so can we now put the old rhetoric of the past to rest unless there is a specific incident that make such remarks prudent?
  2. As to 2,4,5 (What the hell happened to 3), Your expertise in the field should have helped you in this department, but you admittedly were suckered in… How do you think the rest of us feel, and for those grasping at the rumors (such as you admit you did) you should have more compassion instead of blaming them for the bloated capital structure. There are many here that have been very active over the years at addressing various points of concern and a hope that they will someday at least break even, for many it is to late, but blaming them does not help.

For All
We strive to let all voices be heard, lets all be more constrained in the way we address others on this board.
BTW this was meant to be an informative board not a daily bash board, there are clearly other boards for that.

THX GC…

In case you haven’t been following the past two days of discussions, the “event” was the recent update addressing PAST rumors. I offered an opinion to its level of professionalism and was rebutted by, the author (not surprisingly), the individual who asked the question addressed in the update, and the usual cast of characters. I don’t think defending my position should be discouraged. I have NO problem sticking with the future which is best articulated through AMC’s updates. I’d encourage others to do the same. Have a nice weekend.

There is a difference between being optimistic (the mountain will succeed despite the BOD) and overtly derogatory(the BOD sucks -which most shareholders already know). We’ve all heard your repetitive analysis of the BOD’s past mistakes and how they’ve had a negative effect on this investment. Healthy pessimisim is different from personal attacks which many of your posts seem to have adopted as part of your persona. I believe you are different from your persona and could be more effective and persuasive in voicing your expertise if you left out many of the derisive attacks. IMO
