I couldn't agree more. You summed it up. More money from us to fund, well, what? Nothing. More hot air? No, I'm out of here. Years ago, when this company showed real promise, I was happy to invest, as you and others were, but we have seen the mismanagement on a grand scale cost us too much. There comes a time when you have to bite the bullet and say 'enough is enough'. I can't see how this will ever break even, let alone show a profit. Time will tell if I've made the correct decision, but I don't care anymore. It's just my thoughts on things, but I'll gain more by offsetting my losses against tax. I wish you well.

Yes, I'm giving this the big KO. I'm not putting anymore money into this, and, when you consider things, £3m isn't a lot these days, and certainly not enough to buy something, anything it would seem, to resuscitate my position. Oh well, a lesson learned, that there are people out there paying themselves handsomely for doing nowt, living the high life and, on the face of it, being successful. They would sell their children's' souls to make a few bob.

Just select one new share for 0.01p and make sure enough funds are available. Horrorgen to Orogen. What could be worse? I'm 60 years old soon, and my ear lobes are succumbing to gravity. The trouble is, one lobe seems longer than the other. Is my head at an angle when I look in the mirror? I don't know, but it is a worry that I'm starting to look like my my grandfather. I have better things to worry about than this pile of ear hair....................

Guys, put your money on a horse. This won't be worth anything in a few months time. This is a seriously bad investment that has gone down and down over the years, and it's downward spiral will continue. There is nothing to be gained here.

I've been here for years now, unfortunately, and I have seen this sad ship leaking more and more water over the years. I gave up on it but stayed just to see how low it could get. Well, it's probably going as low as it can now, which is no surprise. The one thing that irritates me the most though, is the money the directors have paid themselves over the years for doing eff all. My money was lost years ago, and some have lost considerably more than I have, but to think our money has been squandered so recklessly over the years while they have been filling their wallets year after year for doing nothing...................... I said a while ago the only value these shares had was a tax deductable loss, and this RNS has just confirmed that.

They don't seem to drill very much in the summer, either.

There is value of a sort in having these shares. I can offset the losses against income tax, LOL. I'll get more back that way than keeping the damn shares anyway. It's the only positive I can think of, but a positive nonetheless.

You're having a laugh, aren't you? Like I wrote, I'm not taking you seriously, but I have had a good chuckle at your posts. You are entertaining. Keep it up, old bean.

Lol. So good I posted it twice!

I know, as a long term holder, my money is lost, but as things stand today, is this now a traders share? I always invest on a long term basis, and this one has turned out to be spectacularly bad, but given the ups and downs of the price over the last few months, is there money to be made from daily trading? Trading isn't something I do as I don't have the time or the knowledge, but I suspect that is the reason why we see buys and sells every day in a share some of us regard as a dogs dinner.

What are you on about? Someone asked a perfectly good question as to why buys show as sells, which hasn't received an informed reply, and you twist it into yet another negative about SMA. If you had a balanced view on things, I might have some respect for your views. This isn't the only share I have an interest in, and I have never read posts like yours anywhere else. I know your not going to go away, but I don't take you seriously. It's too gushing a lifestyle, you know, like those adverts that used to appear in the papers years ago for pension salesmen. '2 years ago, I was broke. Now I live in a detached house and take foreign holidays twice a year'. Now I'm expected to believe you are an 'amateur psychologist'. Your a fantasist on the internet, and it shows.

No. I have no idea why trades don't show. I have bought shares before which show as sells, and some trades don't show at all,not just with SMA shares either. I buy using Halifax, and I know that all the shares I have bought are in my portfolio, so I don't suppose it matters if they appear or not. I, like your good self, bought some shares for the same reason. I'm happy to have them, as I'm sure you are. Good news is coming.

Well, there it is, in glorious blue.

Just bought 200,000 at 0.00374p. Let's see what shoes up, if anything.

No, it doesn't make any sense to me either, but it's the only explanation I can remember reading. Anyway, let's have some fun and see what shows up. I'll buy a few and see what gets reported. 200,000 should do nicely as a top up.

I've had trades on here that don't show up and I've no idea why. As for buys being recorded as sells, I've seen this question asked before and the explanation given was that any trade below 50% of the bid and ask is shown as a sell, and any trade above the 50% is shown as a buy.

What else would you expect from an, 'amateur psychologist', Lol.

That's a cracking video. It's cheered me up to the point I'm now looking forward to a 100% rise this week I'm putting an Ad in the paper. 'Two years ago, I was comfortable. Since I invested in Orogen Gold, I've now downsized to a small terraced house with drug dealers and prostitutes as my neighbours. My car was set alight by 14 year old hooded tearaways, and my kids have now been taken into care as I can no longer support them. This week though, my investment made such huge gains, I was able to buy a can of processed peas at the corner shop, and I have, at last, been able to put a quids worth of petrol in my car and drive it around town in a grotesque display of wealth the likes of which have never been seen before on this sink estate. My rover 200 cuts a dashing style around here, despite the rust marks following it's fire, but after the Police stopped me for driving around with no tax, insurance or MOT, the gains I will make over the next few weeks will easily pay my fines and court costs. Yes, you too can aspire to this enviable life. Just invest in Orogen Gold, and you troubles will soon be history.'

Sarky is controlling things, LOL.
