The Irony11 Feb 2021 22:27
Does nobody else see the irony of what's been happening on this board over the past few days? It is obvious that we have been under concerted attack by an organised group of trolls. Their intention is to disrupt sensible discussion about the company and it's prospects, and create tension and doubt amongst board readers.
Idealised's 18:14 post quoted Dan Levi's excellent 2009 summary of "stock bashers" and people should read it. Near the end he says "What you need to avoid is getting into a conversation with the basher himself or herself about the topic. Once you get into direct conversation with a basher, you give the basher credibility. Answer the question if you need to, but do it indirectly. Never use the basher’s name. Never get into a personality contest with a basher."
And what has happened? A very large percentage of posts have been devoted to arguing with them, perpetuating their disruption, even spawning conspiracy theories about evil schemes from "big money" and aggressive attacks on innocent posters followed by apologies. This amounts to doing their job for them.
The SP will do what it will do, for whatever reason. Will it affect the end result? Even the position of the company over the next year? NO. I'm not saying ignore them - they should be identified and reported, and untruths and innuendo met with facts. Isn't that the purpose of the data bank set up by some holders?
