Go and have a good cry Nigel you'll feel better. And if that doesn't work you could always try writing GOLDMAGICAL a nicely worded letter asking him not to buy any more shares because it's making you feel all frustrated and upset and puffy eyed. Anyone thinking of buying more shares please do bear in mind that you should always check with Nigel first just to make sure he's Okay with it before you go ahead with your purchase.

Koovs has far less shares in issue than Boohoo and India is a huge emerging market, so I'd say the potential here is probably greater than Boohoo was back in the days when Boo was similarly cheap. Koovs share price could easily reach double or triple that of Boohoo within a few years or so. So quibbling over 'do i buy now or do I wait and see if it drops a bit lower' is a somewhat pointless debate to be having with oneself if you look at where Koovs could be within say five years from now.. £2 to £5+ being perfectly possible provided shares in issue stays below, or well below, that of Boohoo.

KNK @12.15 "You guys do realise you can get into BIG trouble posting misleading or incorrect information?"

KNK @ 12.15 "I guess some of the rampy posters are insiders" (followed by what appears to be a defamatory insinuation regarding the share price)

Only Nigel could point out the importance of not posting false and misleading information, whilst managing to do just that only a few lines later in the very same post. Shocking Nigel.

KNIGELK, you say your interest here stems from you being an ex Wrn shareholder.. Can I ask, when did you hold your shares in Wrn? (from and to dates) ?

The clarity who posted last night could just as easily have been a troll trying to infiltrate the board using a username from advfn that they know shareholders trust. I'm not saying that was definitely the case, who knows, but personally i wouldn't put anything past the advfn trolls. For that reason i'm wary of any new poster and i think that's the best way to be.

KNIGELK "maybe if you forget about these shares for 2-3 years and come back" Some good advice there from the man who struggles to forget about these shares for more than 2-3 hours!

GumT, what's an "indeveloped mind"? It's a word the Oxford English dictionary doesn't appear familiar with? Does it mean "a person who has a mind that's so underdeveloped that he can't even spell or pronounce it properly"?

LEFKOSIA, instead of "dealing with the issues concerning the share" as you put it, why don't you try investing in shares you actually feel positive about? What's the point of investing then spending vast amounts of your time and energy scrutinising and looking for downsides? Generally speaking investors don't invest then set about deramping and trolling their own investments - which makes me think you've probably sold out. You're a short term trader who values hocus pocus charts over reading company fundamentals and we all know you have no patience for long term holds. My guess is you bought shares on britdaq around the last peak, just before the price eased back. You waited a few days but then became impatient and stroppy and sold out at a small loss. It would certainly explain your attitude on this BB. I simply don't buy that any holder in any stock would spend time trying to find fault with his own investment and spread negativity like you do. Your attitude very much resembles that of somebody who used to hold and for whatever reason has recently sold out and come away with a bit of a grudge. Well guess what, nobody cares LEFKOSIA. Investing requires PATIENCE and if you haven't got any then you're destined to lose money unless you start taking a longer term approach and stop expecting shares to multi bag the moment you buy in. The very definition of a TROLL is somebody who sells out and then sets about doing his utmost to deramp and spread negativity on a share he's no longer invested in - rather than walking away and moving on. Ring any bells Nigel? You're another one who has done just that. 49 posts in the last 30 days alone plus heaven knows how many on advfn. All of them having a negative slant and attempting to pick holes. If either of you feel that negative about a stock then you should not be investing your time here - especially when there are 3000+ companies listed on the main market and AIM to choose from.

John, if i wanted to further increase my shareholding i would only consider buying through the proper channels - currently that's britdaq. Nobody with any sense is going to exchange emails and enter into dodgy dealings with strangers off the Internet. This is why we have trading platforms, so we don't have to resort to that kind of thing - this is how we do things in the civilised world John. If you have shares to sell, be that real ones or imaginary, can i suggest you take the time to register on britdaq like everyone else? If it's good enough for everyone else, it's good enough for you too. And if you're saying you can't be arsed to do that John, then clearly three years of talk about how you were going to sell at 8am on day one were just that - all talk. I think you've shown yourself to be somebody who complains and whinges an awful lot, but when it comes to getting off your backside and actually doing something about it now that you have the chance to, your excuse is "i can't be arsed giving my details". Personally i don't care if you hold or sell, however i don't think it's right or fair to other holders for you to carry on complaining and posting negative tripe on a daily basis now that you have the opportunity to sell up and clear off. If you were genuinely unhappy you'd sell up and go. If you're saying you can't be arsed, then clearly things aren't as bad for you as you like to make out, and your daily rants should be seen as little more than an act and a craving for attention. I think much of it is just you playing to the crowd on advfn like some kind of overgrown child.

KNIGELK, "my point stands - no need to call out someone posting on a thread because they may not currently hold" KNIGELK, STAR, 21 Jan 16 "Yes but not 10 times per day - every day! Just don't see the logic myself - personally hold 10+ investments and busy enough to post just on them as well as holding down a 9-5 day job - perhaps most here are retired or so rich they do not work but again I repeat - do people really spend all day on here just posting on shares they have no CURRENT financial interest in? Just seems odd to me but each to their own" KNIGELK, MTV, 21 Jan 16 "there are simply too many single thread posters on here but at least some - even the one who is 100% negative actually hold shares here... Some of the others really do need to get a life and actually post on investments they hold... For a change"

John, so after 18+ months of daily posts on advfn telling everyone how you were going to sell on day one, in the end you didn't follow through with it because you couldn't be arsed to spend five minutes registering with britdaq? Couldn't be arsed John? Or did your daily rants on advfn cost you your gifted shares? It just seems unlikely anyone would find the time to post everyday for months on end vowing to sell on day one - only to backtrack when trading begins claiming he couldn't be arsed to give his details! a process that takes only minutes! I think you could have come up with a better one than that John!

John, didn't you say you'd be selling your gifted shares day one when trading begins? So why are you still here John? Did you not receive your gifted shares? Or have you decided to hold on to them instead? Or is there another reason why you appear to be having difficulty moving on?

KNIGELK @ 9:15 "believe me, I would not be posting if i was either invested or considering investing" Absolutely Nigel. After all, nobody trolls their own investments do they? Isn't that what you're saying? You seem to be acknowledging a few things there Nigel?

Nigel, accusing other posters of being "rampers" is also a "personal attack" because that's essentially what you're doing - you are personally attacking others for having a positive view - which they're perfectly entitled to have AND POST without having to put up with being swooped on, attacked and labelled as "rampers" by aggressive and abusive posters such as yourself. Think about that before accusing others of personal attacks - because personally attacking those you consider "rampers" has been your signature characteristic for the last 3+ years, eversince your bizarre obsession with WRN first started. As i suspected, your hatred of "rampers" stems from you following others in to a stock on the back of positive bb chatter (ramping as you like to call it) - and you ending up getting spiked. But rather than accept responsibility for your own decisions and mistakes it's clear you are one somebody who blames others for their losses - in your case it's the "rampers" who bear the brunt of your anger because in your warped way of thinking it was they who caused you to lose money. And so now every ramper / positive poster out there - including those who had nothing to do with your past losses are vilified by YOU and attacked for their views. You claim you were younger back then and now you're older and wiser. Well that may be so, however what is clear is that you are still carrying around that same anger and bitterness - the visible signs being your obvious and profound hatred for those who post what you consider overly positive or overly optimistic views. Practice what you preach Nigel. It is YOU who needs to stop the personal attacks. It is YOU who has a history of listening too much to bb chatter and acting on it. It is YOU who is carrying the chip on his shoulder - it's not the "rampers" fault Nigel, they're perfectly entitled to post upbeat views and projections - as upbeat and optimistic as they like. YOU ALONE are responsible for your investment decisions and past mistakes. It doesn't matter who said what on a bulletin board - you're the one who hit the buy button so stop your personal crusade against the rampers and accept responsibility for your past losses and mistakes. Lecturing others about the importance of having a balanced view is a farce on your behalf when you yourself are about as unbalanced a poster as its conceivable to get. There has NEVER been anything even remotely balanced about your views on WRN. A true reflection and measure of just how UNBALANCED your views here have been is that the most hardcore critics on advfn all consider you one of their own. If your views were truly balanced the critics would have been challenging you left right and centre. Instead you and the advfn critics have long been best of buddies. If you truly believe your views are balanced, you are truly deluded and you clearly can't see yourself.

KNIGELK @ 20:12 "BTW where do you get 13 deals from? It was 10.. now 13.. jesus.. talk about ramping" KNIGELK @ 16:45 "I doubt 99% of us trade on the words of a BB poster - if anyone doesn't like it - go to another website" Perhaps you need to take your own advice Nigel and go to another website?

That's odd.. if you click on the WRN live RNS icon on this page there are loads of RNSs that weren't there before - RNSs about Western copper and gold etc.. Is this an lse website glitch?

Henry, why did FF fail to really take off in the UK when according to you it's the best thing since sliced bread?

Henry, unfortunately you don't own these chat boards and anyone is entitled to post on them, be that holders or non holders. Nor do posters have to state a reason to others as to why they post there - put simply, it's nothing to do with you or anyone else why i post here, it is simply my choice and my entitlement to do so as per LSE chat rules. I will continue to post here as and when i wish, as often as i wish, as is my right, as per LSE chat rules. If you persist in being insulting about that, you will be reported to admin. Henry, perhaps you can explain how the world managed to survive before fruit flow came along? How on earth did our fathers and forefathers cope without it? Did generations before us die young Henry as a result of not taking fruitflow? Let me be clear. I'm not saying FF doesn't have certain health claims and benefits. What i am saying is let's not make out FF is the only answer to heart health because we all know there are a thousand cheap and readily available products out there which are also known to improve heart health with regular use - such as garlic, olive oil, oats, benecol, fresh berries, fresh vegetables, etc etc - the list goes on and on and I'm quite sure any doctor, dietician or nutritionists would advise anyone concerned about their heart health to include more of these heart healthy foods in their diets. Food supplements such as FF are simply not necessary for the vast majority of the population - a normal healthy diet suffices - as generations before us have proven.

I'll be honest fonters i wouldn't even buy fruit flow (the product) full stop. My grandparents lived into their 90's perfectly happy and healthy eating a normal healthy diet nothing more. Before fruit flow came about were people dropping dead in the street everywhere you look like flies = no they weren't. Generations have managed perfectly fine without fruit flow all this time - and generations to come will also manage perfectly fine without it. Nature provides all you need in its natural form, there is no need to turn to supplements - nutritionists have a saying "if it's in a packet, sack it" (ie always eat whole foods in their natural form as nature intended). For hundreds of years people have lived to ripe old ages without fruitflow so why all of a sudden the urgency to take it? I can understand from an underwater pxs shareholders point of view why there's an urgency to get people buying it, but apart from the desperados who own the shares i see no point in buying fruitflow when i can improve my heart health by a thousand other means that are far cheaper and more accessible - such as a garlic bulb, olive oil, porridge oats, benecol, fresh fruit and vegetables.. I mean the list is endless it's not like fruitflow is the only substance which improves heart health!

Warren Buffet : "Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks" I think sometimes the best course of action is just to bite the bullet and sell out at a loss and move on. ie, don't waste any more time stressing about it and certainly don't put any more money into it trying to average down. If the vessel is leaking and it's going down, best to jump ship and change vessels, ie, put your money into something else and try to make back your losses that way. And always learn from bitter experiences and costly mistakes - or you may end up repeating them one day!
