My main issue is and remains providing accurate information to nervous legacy shareholders here, but doing so has meant having to constantly clean up the backwash from your lazy, inaccurate, and increasingly malicious, AI/googling, an often soul-destroying task I continue to perform because its important that ultimately, your comically-unearned, bloated ego not be allowed to poison the information exchange here.

However, that burden, and the inevitable personal insults that result, should never be allowed to devolve into posting such outrageously malignant fantasies. Still, the fact that you've cross this obvious rules-of-engagement line with such obvious glee does makes that burden lighter in one sense: I've now been thoroughly disabused of absolutely any concern whatsoever for you or your position, so let the chips fall where they may. You went too far, bs, and I'm confident I'm not the only one who noticed.

AM - one, I noticed my misuse of the word 'fascinating' almost immediately after posting but was hoping you wouldn't. Second sloppy error I've made recently that I have to apologise for, so Sorry....

More importantly however, my response was meant to address what I thought was a serious response on your part to bs, rather than a rejection of such malicious gibberish, which was a righteous take obviously. So a much bigger apology for that complete misread on my part.

Finally, while its absolutely right to highlight how spectacularly inappropriate posting such salacious nonsense on a public company message board is, far more important is to recognise this as just the most recent example of bs's historical pattern of often wilful misinformation and/or incredibly sloppy scholarship. As I've pointed out many times, his motives may be difficult to discern at times, but one reason I'm sure of is that he. cannot bear to not be seen as an authority on this subject, and even worse, when he is periodically but methodically, called out for his ignorance, poor fact-checking or worst of all, signal-boosting even the most egregious 'contributors' here just because they try to be mean to his critics, instead of acknowledging his mistakes, he doubles down and furballs like today's dog's breakfast are the result.

'fascinating', huh, AM? You think I had a relationship with a junior staffer in 2018, blah, blah, blah and am hanging around here 8 years later after the shares have been DE-LISTED, not just suspended. Really?? What makes all that bumpf 'fascinating' exactly? Because the header says 'Ref Gemini'?

Meantime, you don't find the fact that the previous 'Ref Gemini' download was a timeline which does not and cannot possibly exist in the real world? That's not 'fascinating'? How about intriguing? Mildly perplexing perhaps? Nothing huh? Fascinating......

Perfect. The best on-line battles are surely the ones where, in the end, all you really need to do is endure having to engage with some over-medicated egoist long enough and they will eventually hang themselves on their own lazy, brainless efforts. The really fascinating part of this particular masterclass demonstration in self-immolation however, is that in the span of 3 or 4 posts, bs has managed, for a brief moment anyway, to take down the integrity and credibility of the arguably the most powerful tool ever unleashed on humankind. Quite an accomplishment.

I don't take orders from anyone, you deflecting muppet, nor have I ever heard of those individuals other than Fanning.

Meantime, I operate from knowledge of the markets, the company corporate structure (read the re-admission document!), corporate law and the Nigterian O&G industry, al of which clearly exceed yours, but the primary upgrade in listening to me rather than your consistently dangerous self, is that I prioritise honest information sharing and would never post idle, unconfirmed (or unconfirm-able) googling results often from dubious sources or even worse, signal-boost the output from other, obviously corrupt posters.

And then, as if you have some sort of death wish for whatever remains of your credibility, you vomit up a series of AI prompt results that only serve to demonstrate that no matter how powerful the tool, in the hands of an otherwise lazy, self-unaware egoist, its still nothing more than an exercise in proving the timelessness of GIGO.

Time for me to go for a little while, but the short refutation of your incredibly misleading couple of furballs comes at the very beginning: there has been no petition and will be no petition from Brightwater from 9 Feb for multiple reasons. Once anyone with half a brain realises how that will not happen then basically the entire 'timeline' is utterly compromised including the most outrageous example: '....Feb 23 (10:30 AM): The High Court hearing that will likely decide if the company survives or enters liquidation....'. Nothing of the sort will occur on that day or any other for some time, at a minimum.

I get that AI isn't stupid. It is often careful to produce results which can be read as being predictive while it actually intends to simply inform that during a certain date range is when something 'can' or 'might' occur. But that's where the interdiction of a human who has some common sense, would normally be expected but of course this assumes that that human has honourable intentions and isn't driven by a brittle ego that prioritises his own self-aggrandisement over useful information.

Cool. thx

Funny that, because you never stop being your cowardly self, unable or unwilling to admit fault in signal-boosting corrupt posters and misinformation, and then brazenly trying to blend backk into the general population like nothing happened. But we see you and unless and until you acknowledge publicly the damage you've done, I won't stop reminding everyone here what a mindless, ethics-free zone you so often are. Not gonna happen.

Lucky - honestly, this is a genuine question, not trying to start anything fraught, but did you not see my post just a short time before yours where I provided pretty much exactly the same information (though yours was better written I concede)? I am genuinely just curious

Small correction: Eco will of course be out-of-pocket for the building materials, but the rest of the. cost of the project will be covered by the charity. Apologies. However, as the lowest cost producer, this is not a significant expense for the company and certainly not when compared to the marketing and publicity benefits and certainly not when compared to such spending by other AIM companies developing projects in the developing world.

First off, the 'market' has this at 15p and a paltry £18m, so its opinion is not very meaningful at this point per se (remember how the sp rallied from 3p to nearly 30p before settling around these levels, for evidence of what I'm talking about), which shareholders would be wise to remember.

With that said, this is clearly a positive advance for the company, no matter that it brings no revenue for the moment. Foreign companies trying to develop major businesses in frontier markets (see AIM miners especially, like Atlantic Lithium, Pensana, and dozens more), always budget for significant community outreach (I hope the reasons are obvious) and often end up building out whole villages on the shareholders' dime. In this case, it appears ECOB is building arguably the most important structure in the community of their first significant foreign project and will be fully funded in doing so by a local charity. In return, in addition to raising the Company's profile positively among the community that may provide everything from further contracts to future employees, Eco will effectively have a showcase building for their product and construction expertise, not to mention their low-cost production methods, for use in future marketing to potential new clients. It's a win-win and Eco is nil out-of-pocket. What's not to like?

Go tell that to the market.

Let's first drop your transparent 'aw shucks, I'm just a regular poster' attempt to wave away how damaging your misinformation continues to be, while your inability to condemn even more egregious errors by seriously questionable posters. The rest of us will handle the eff0rts at optimism, thanks.

Um, don't think it alters the (far far far) more important fact that your latest arms-length offering is riddled with crucial errors because you seem to have neither the ability nor the interest in engaging in even the most rudimentary fact-checking. I guess you fancy that dropping this core dump with the warning 'make of it what you will' absolves you of any responsibility for checking even the most serious claims contained. Well, that's not how anyone interested in the truth is going to see it. Duh

Notwithstanding that the key contents in bs's AI dump were either false or misleading, I clearly made a muppet of myself thinking he was referring to gemini, a company and not an AI platform, and I apologise unreservedly to him for calling him a fraud.

My bottom-line remains that the content is wildly wrong and/or misleading, but I jumped a massive gun and I'm sorry for that

Um, then someone better tell that Gemini that, among a whole bunch of other things, there has been no connection made - legal or otherwise - between the expropriation of Midwestern's eroton and any attempt from san leon to claim 'solvency' since no such effort was ever required by any judge in any court, as the Company explained in the press already. Meantime, even if a judge reverses sle's seizing of the eroton shares, it has no impact whatever on their 'solvency' anyway as MW will STILL owe them c170m, and finally and even more fundamental, there isn't even any windup order filed by anyone, brightwater included, as far as anyone can tell for the simple reason that they too understand their claim is peanuts vs the sums sle are dealing with here, so they will wait and wait some more. And that's just 2 of the most egregious errors.

The whole thing is a pile of tosh and bs had no business publishing it. Frankly, it would have been better if it had come from Gemini, the Polish partner.

I have neither the time nor the energy anymore to provide a full-scale debunking of the multiple villains, gremlins and trolls and their sometimes serious attempts at misinformation or worse. Posters like gtjd are of dubious provenance at best, elevating their consistently false and misleading information - especially and particularly around litigation news of every type - beyond just the normal ignorant assertions of the perennially bitter and twisted. Still, he and his shifting backstory has proven little more than a minor irritation in exposing him.

Clearly, bs has been in a similar bucket for some time. However, today's absolutely Trumpian, multi-post screed, is next level altogether and will require a more serious response, possibly even elevated to the company or a regulator. While it is true that in toto, his ranting is a wildly over-the-top combination of mindless speculation and outright fabrication, so it is fair to wonder whether a response is even worth it. On the other hand, the malfeasance may be enough for the company to consider a response and/or brought to the attention of LSE's compliance, as I've suggested.

I will return at least with some more specific examples soon, but for anyone with half a brain who is not in league, have a close look at the rage post series today from this fraud, and compare it to absolutely ANYTHING he has 'written' before. There are clearly no viable similarities, in style or content, whatsoever. However, beyond that, as for content, I only have time now to point out the utter insanity contained in the first 2 posts, where this fraudster cites as his 'source', 'Gemini', without any explanation or predicate whatsoever, as if readers should know immediately who they are and be impressed enough to not even wonder why they are being mentioned in the first place. In fact, Gemini were a firm sle did business with many years ago - IN POLAND FFS! - and would have absolutely no access to to ANYTHING of consequence going on with San Leon, ESPECIALLY not anything to do with the company's legal activities. Its the most outrageously amateurish attempt at trying to legitimise completely unverified, unsubstantiated hearsay I've ever seen, and its only the tip of the misinformation pile from this sudden torrent of fake news from a poster whose worst crime to date had been to bore readers here with irrelevant macro news from highly suspect websites. Something very strange is going on here and there are already some theories being investigated. More from me soon on this turd pile.....

Got your participation trophy right here. We'll set you up as the board's official p.a. You've certainly earned it.

Part of his effort to bring 'real world' information sawdust to the board, no doubt. What a wonderfully revealing 'appeal to authority' fallacy. Thinking that somehow sharing the latest local publication's latest lamentations on internecine fighting at the NNPC is somehow exploiting his 'real world' experience, instead of what it really is: an ego pumping exercise for someone who needs validation on a poxy chat board, which only ends up for instance, diluting the importance of the single biggest news item - by far - to break in this recent run of generally positive articles on the Company: the revelation that they had ALREADY claimed an extra 20% of Eroton shares, from Midwestern. If bs had done as he was recommended 20 times - TO READ THE RE-ADMISSION DOCUMENT - he would have appreciated just how significant this move by SLE was (if its indeed true) and then he wouldn't have tried - once again - to seemingly side with the negative narrative by snarking about SLE's chances of succeeding in its newly submitted lawsuit against Midwestern, and ended looking a wally. Again

From the other board, that extends my thinking:

'...I now think the most likely scenario is in play here; ie., that the 44m shares primarily came from the company, ie., almost half of the Zvi stake he exchanged for the distribution business recently. Obviously, if I'm right, this would put a tidy £6m+ in the company's cash balance and likely bring in some fresh blood to the share register, uniformly good news and yet the share price is lower. So, either I'm completely wrong, which I doubt, or the details of this transaction have been extremely well concealed, or this name has been in communications purgatory for so long, the market just doesn't give a damn. Guess we'll see....'

'....some other possibilities:

- if the transaction is primarily company shares, perhaps the cash infusion will make management more likely to extinguish the balance, obviously making the fundamental measures look better;

- would be nice to have an American hedge fund with a decent reputation on the register

- if company is in fact the seller, it'll be interesting to see if the RNS contains some extra prose re the continued balance sheet restructuring and/or current trading

- if it is the company, some may take the company selling shares at 15p instead of waiting for a price closer to NAV, or even better, cancelling them, negatively and I have some sympathy for that argument and would only counter that the founder having sold at the same price may have already discounted some of that 'negative read-across' and/or the company can still (partially) do the right thing by cancelling the c54m balance....'

Repeat information already shared by others, twinned with some vapid observations no one asked for and do sweet fa to advance the conversation here. Typical.

At around 15.33 Richard Penny, one of UK small cap's more prominent figures for a while now, discusses the value proposition in BATM in brief, but pretty compelling terms, both from an upside (30p-80p) and risk/reward perspective. Penny is a long-time fan of the company and an obvious possible buyer of some (unlikely to have bought the entire piece as his small cap fund already has a decent position and BATM is not the most liquid value names) of the shares traded yesterday....
