You cannot make a sudden U turn and pretend this hasn't been appalling.

I personally think some of the hotheads who followed everything GC said as if it was gospel, also worked to fire some competent people who had standards professionally and personally.

Alan Studley is one and the treatment of him goes down in infamy for misguided retail shareholder behaviour and firing him hurt him unfairly and professionally.

But nobody from the hothead crowd gave a moment's thought to that. Destroy decent people's reputations? No problemo! Had to be done!

Particularly as without Studley's efforts there would be no company left to speak of. It could have been wound up and there were plenty of reasons why it should have been. A court order would have been easily obtained with that mess he had to clean up.

I could have applied for one along with other investors and had the whole thing wound up. No problemo! The restraint that it took to not do that has never been acknowledged.

The rudeness and bullying has been unbelievable then and up until now, to anyone with a questioning or contrary view. There were memes, gifs and possibly pump and dumping efforts from OUR MATT who joined the BOD without any credible qualifications as Studley was ousted, and he proceeded to do nothing that he said he would. Communicate with investors? Maybe he did and I'm not on his speed dial? You're meant to communicate with all investors, right?

There has not been a core of institutional or sophisticated investors to shake some sense into the bullies or get some minimal standards of governance. Until now.

Dare I mention the colossal number of Shares on Issue and the constant issuing of CRs at rock bottom prices, which crippled LT investors?

I wouldn't mind, but it's taken from Studley's ousting until now for you to make any semblance of change.That is appalling. Hang your heads in shame.

You all look like a bunch of desperates, and repellent to decent and considered investors. And that repellent quality in chat is what has finally got someone's attention. The fact that I'm female and there were terms used such as 'unhinged' to describe my efforts to get you to understand what was going wrong, is another indictment. As were the very loaded sexual references. Why it was left unchecked previously is not something I can answer.

FINALLY.

The outbreak of decency in chat is sudden but long overdue and I suspect it's come from somewhere in ADO management who really does understand. risk management. They signal to key investors how to behave. Like @semi retired whose behaviour towards me has been reckless, bullying and appalling has suddenly pulled his not inconsiderable head in. His behaviour has not quite eclipsed that of @Brickwalls who was master at sexist insults and used others to send him screenshots of my posts and he'd respond, even though he is meant to not be able to see them or respond to them as we are meant to be on mutual ignore.

What was done there is outrageous and the way you'd participate, taunt and gloat was unbelievable. Hang your heads in shame.

Don't imagine I'm forgetting that. Or the way @semi retired followed me into an other stock MSB to denounce me, that stock, and loudly slam the door as he sold it out pronouncing it was "a dog". What's happened to it since then? I'm sitting on massive returns on my 30c CR that I had the courage to take.

In here, it's been like a polling booth with the Greens, socialist left and muslim votes matter all present. I had that experience on Saturday and it was very uncivilised to say the least. Scary even. The AEC were called in that's how bad it got. Where is the self regulating behaviour in here? There has been none.

I will die waiting for appropriate apologies, but the personal attacks, doxing, lies and bullying have left a lot to be desired.

A lot.

You can't suddenly switch gears and think it's all AOK happy families and smiles.

It has been damaging and unacceptable and for a very long time indeed and you damaged the company while you did that.

It gave the message that like the posters, this company is desperate.

Which it has been.

Someone has woken up. NOT BEFORE TIME!
