Bozi.
Thanks for making your point clearer.
I agree and have recommended your post.
Jezzoo - just on your final point - not quite where I was going with it. We all need to scratch when there's an itch but to use the term as a general degradation of a group of people who are doing their utmost to make a living to support their families and communities is simply not on in my book.
The company has decided we need this number of employees and as investors we should respect that and respect them.

I don't disagree with you. I believe Quady to be on the wrong side of the debate regarding the aborted fundraise amongst a couple of other things and would agree that the lines you have quoted are unnecessarily aggressive. I've passed comment on this before albeit a little while ago now.
We're all responsible for maintaining civility on this board and we should all do our bit.
I have a feeling this thread will self distruct in the none too distant future.
good post KAT2008
I did warn you DBW, You didn't post what he wanted so you are still in the naughty corner with me and about twenty others.
Free speech is only allowed if it's Quadspeak.
“Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious.”
? George Orwell, 1984
" Hate Speech " did not even exist as a term or idea before 2018.
it is a wholly political intersectional creation by the Woke to squash dissent.
It used to be called Politically Incorrect speech.
In reality it's just censorship, as what is considered ' hateful' is / should be a wholly personal opinion.
It has no place in law.
Often, there are really, really good reasons for someone feeling hate towards someone / thing.
All opinions should be freely aired, as sunlight is the best disinfectant.
DBW I take your word that you have never ticked up any of his vile posts.
But to say I am top of your list on vile people tells a different story.
Surely you mean Slug is top of your list of vile people.
Or are you lying and supportive of his views and don't find them vile.

Jezzoo you don't even know what free speech is.
Free speech is not hate speech.
Free speech is not incitement.
Free speech is not Slander.
Join a debating society and learn about free speech.

Quady I’ll happily say I don’t agree with plenty of what he says and your friends in admin will be able to confirm I have never ticked up any ****** or sexist post.
However when it comes to vile individuals I think you too the list
Oh he giving me a chance next !
Quady you constantly quote me out of context so I'm sure you can find several posts of mine defending the right to free speech (within the law)
I'm not giving you the pleasure of repeating myself for your benefit.
I have the measure of you completely.
DBW You should feel very priviledged that Quady has given you a chance to have your say.
one caveat though, you only have the option to " condemn this vile individual for all the hate he posts on women, ethnic minorities and far right extremist propaganda."
Quick before the Archbishop changes his mind ( rollong eyes emoji)
Your right on one thing Jezzoo I hate rac.ism , people who hate women, and people who spread hatred of the poor and disadvantaged through extreme right wing propaganda. your right these are things I don't like and I draw a line in the sand.
Maybe now you can express yourself and tell people why you support the Slugs views as your always defending him and his views.
Grow up you lot FFS!
DBW we know your stance Slug is your friend and you support his views.
Let's see you condemn this vile individual for all the hate he posts on women, ethnic minorities and far right extremist propaganda.
Go on you have your chance.
Full of hate ????
Hate is a VERY strong word Quady.
And I notice you used the word disgusting twice in your last post, no doubt to align yourself with Bozi who used the word in their post immediately before. Divide and conquer.
Your last paragraph speaks volumes about your mental state.
I think you hate a lot of things but simply find them disgusting. You need to realise the feelings you have are actually the thing you don't like.
HATE.
Did you notice how Bozi started their reply to me with word sorry ? They disagreed with me but didn't denigrate me.
I have respect for such people as that is the kind of person I strive to be.
And although I agree with slug on the 800 employees, I wouldn't have used the same term as him. However, show me a person who hasn't scratched their bum ever and I'll show you a liar
Bozi
Thanks but trying to stay on topic here seems fairly futile
My thoughts are as follows
The Slug (under his various) guises is clearly invested and very knowledgeable on both Solg and the market mechanics. He clearly oversteps the mark at times and leaves Admin no choice.
Quady may or may not be invested ( I couldn't care less) and knows **** all about anything
He continuously insults and condescends to other investors ... from the last day or so
"Good grief Jezzoo you really believe the rubbish you post"
"Jerry what absolute rubbish"
he has two tag lines .... going to production or diverse book .
Bozi .... surely you must see the refusal to see what's in front of you as slightly weird (we didn't get any money at the fund raising so we can't have failed ????)
Whilst I understand the reasons Slug has been removed time and time again I cannot honestly see a single decent thing Quady brings to this board other than stoking bad feeling wherever he/she/it can
Q, why is it that you cannot resist mentioning my name all the time? Do you have some kind of infatuation?
As for being offensive, that really is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. I'll call you out every time you are wrong - the fund raising issue being the most recent example. However, I also make a point of saying when you are right about things, for example, I agree with you about this slug character.
Thank you Bozi posters like you rcgl2, DartFrog Copperpot and Pinotnoir stick to the facts.
You are quite right I disagree with many on here, yourself included sometimes.
But this vile individual is beyond belief.
No one should have to listen to the hate this individual constantly posts on ethnic minorities, women or his extreme right wing views on the vulnerable or poorest in society who work so hard. It's disgusting.
What is nearly as disgusting is people who blame me for reporting this vile person they support.
People like Jezzoo are so full of hate that they cannot distinguish betwreen right and wrong.
I do also have a go at people like addicknt and redknight as I find them offensive at times and condescending, ( especially when they are wrong they become more condescending ) but I have never reported them as they are none of the things above.
Jezzoo - sorry can't agree there.
The poster in question is quick to make reference to "800 Ecuadorian bumscratchers". That's without any goading or provocation from Quady.
That behaviour in itself is disgusting and not to be tolerated.
I also gather he's had a go at others including myself of late - anyone he doesn't agree with.
If he wants to discuss the SOLG story then he could share the (likes of) pertinent stuff that DBW has this morning, but with zero discrimination of fellow posters or employees of the company.
Good point well made Bozi, I understand what you mean but the poster in question has returned and posted several SOLG only posts only for Q to call him out or goad the poster into reacting in a bad way.
Q knows this and uses it at every opportunity, he does it with me but I don't bite so easily ( although I do bite, I'm not one for taking c rap from others whoever they are)
The poster in question is well informed on the subject of SOLG and if Q gave him a chance this whole thing would blow over.
It would be great to get past this and get back to the SOLG story.
Lol even I don't need glasses to spot that version Jezzoo

in its territory to indigenous communities and nationalities, Montubias, Afro-descendants. This has not been done due to lack of law. The companies carry out social responsibility work (information, communication and socialization). This does not replace the role of the State. However, it is important to emphasize that prior consultation does not represent a veto power; It is not asking the population if it allows or does not allow. In other countries such as Peru, prior consultation is carried out according to the parameters set by the International Labor Organization (ILO); that is, as a mechanism for citizen participation to inform. The economic future of an entire country cannot be consulted in a community. We would not only be contravening the Constitution; but also the principle of authority and sovereignty of the State.
Q. Are popular consultations the solution to resolve conflicts with those opposed to mining?
Local popular consultations cannot contradict the mandate of the Constitution. It is clearly established that mineral resources and their administration are the responsibility of the State.
The mining industry is not against regulations, controls and monitoring. What it asks, like any industry in the world, is that the rules of the game not change once the projects begin. Having a popular consultation in Quito is terrible because if what we want is to attract investment, for dollars to enter in a clean way to invest in social and development issues, a local consultation drives all that away.
Mining can coexist with other economic activities. The La Plata project in Sigchos (Cotopaxi) is carrying out an agricultural project so that the people of the area begin to grow competitive crops. They do it hand in hand with international organizations because the idea is that when the mine is finished, the populations are consolidated and have development options.
Formal mining does not displace populations; nor does it throw mercury into the rivers. Mercury is not even used now. That only happens with illegal mining. The amount of water that enters a mining project is that allowed by the environmental license. It is monitored and recirculated. In the end, it is treated before being returned to the ecosystem. (JS)
“We must all work for a better country. But, for that, a real development alternative is needed. You need money to face child malnutrition, poverty, unemployment. That money has to come from a sustainable source like mining.” María Eulalia Silva, Executive President of the Mining Chamber
