I agree the bickering is not good for the BB. I've done no more than respond to personal attacks. However, because we have a Presentation coming up on Wednesday, where hopefully the answers will be provided, there is little to be gained by continuing with the 'placing or not, can they, can't they' discussion on here until then. I ONLY raised the issue out of genuine doubt and to help me with my own decision making. Ever since the AGM, I've thought like many of you that the placing door is firmly shut, because we had no headroom without a vote. But then when LB suggested they would look at an "opportunistic" raise, and with the recent price action, it made me want to just double check my understanding. Therefore, I did some reading and researching around the topic, and even went back and checked our AGM documentation. And that's when it occurred to me about raising on a pre-emptive basis with EXISTING shareholders, which I believe will not need a vote as it is already provided for by the company's Articles? I am sure most can appreciate that this is all complicated stuff (we are BVI incorporated as well), and there are also loopholes etc. So rather than remain in uncertainty, and arrive at the wrong answer, and be hit with the unexpected, when it comes to MY money, I would much rather just ask. And it was perfectly reasonable to ask about it on here, in the belief that someone would know the answer. After all, if posters are going to loudly proclaim that there is "zero headroom for ANY kind of raise" and attack others for questioning the accuracy of such firm statements, they should be able to answer this definitively and without hesitation right? Otherwise, who is misleading who here - the questioner or the answerer?
Anyway, we have a presentation on Wednesday, and so lets see whether and what He1 say about this topic. I won't post anymore about this particular topic, as I have no desire to fuel toxicity and bickering on the BB, especially if the definitive answer that I sought is not forthcoming amongst all the unfriendly fire. All imo and dyor
