Nonetheless, our Code of Ethics does not say anywhere we should not boast our achievements, let alone forbid it. Anyways, I really don't wish to get into this.

Re your corporate analogy, I like it. I may even agree with restricting punishment to the HC team, although I would extend that to all the officers as well.

And if so, tell me, what company would go on without a BoD and executive officers? Would the shareholders be better off selling out and investing elsewhere or would they be better off keeping a blind venture spiralling downwards? Pride? Pride in what?

Anyways, at this point I have already made my point. And I wish to spend no more time in this matter.
That's a decision for the shareholders to make, not planetarion. Ultimately they can choose the same people who led them into this mess, or they can appoint someone else to run the ship. Either way, this shouldn't be our choice or the MH.

Disc is absolutely dead right here. Ultimately officers aren't responsible for everything (they are just delegated tasks), HC are. And HC are far easier to define than officers. What is an 'officer' is very much open to debate.

My point about lawyers was a general comment on the thread; it applied to everyone who said it and I'm sorry if people misunderstood that. I wouldn't even point out I was a law student in riposte to someone saying it. I think 'unprofessional' is very different from lawyers' code of conduct which aims to generally deal with quality of service and preventing corruption, money laundering and misappropriation of funds. But if you don't think making your profession look like a bunch of twats who see themselves as better than everyone else isn't unprofessional, it's your call I guess. Clients should find their lawyer to be accessible, not some distant person who treats lay people with intellectual contempt.
