I respectfully disagree. A few years back I was posting in a rising share price environment and a very hostile HC community in regards to my cautious comments.
I did not see management up to the task, they have proven that point, I would say.
I did not see revenue numbers stacking up, this was also shown.
I also warned of both CRs at the time which both took place months later in each instance.
My posting style was motivated not by personal gain at that point but by commitment to a stock I helped supporting with many years of posting and evidently being hijacked by trading communities for short term gains.
I warned of such developments and was attacked on this forum in a very personal manner for such actions.
I can see similar wordings resurface now with cases of " disgusting and nasty ", to name a few.
Is it really that uncomfortable when confronted with the truth?
ASX small casino plays are dangerous and many new investors fall prey to the practice.
Best observation has always been brokers supporting the stock in order to cash in on looming CRs, manipulative rallies.
Both were the case with OBJ, for both CRs I was warning the HC community of this being ongoing.
Each time with very hostile responses, only to be proven correct as both CRs eventuated.
The ASX is not properly investigated for ongoing manipulation, recent banking commission activities have helped bring some of the practices to light though.
One would wish a lot more could be done.
To wrap it up, if I did upset some holders with my posting style years ago, so be it, I take that.
If it helped avoiding some investors to sit on 70 to 80% losses now, it was worth it, because after all, I had already sold and had no personal gain from posting at that point.
