Member Info for shychap

It's an impossible ramp these days, which is presumably why the worst of the pumpers have fled the scene. But back in the day, I didn't notice you complaining about their one-sided posts. For a long time, the rampers conspired to get the negative posters banned leaving the coast clear for unadulterated ramping. Remind me when you complained about the lack of balance then.

There's plenty of balance if the majority of posters are ramping away 100% of the time. Why not criticise them for never commenting on the negatives (of which there have been plenty)?

They haven't been making enough Scottish gold to sell it more widely. That's because it costs them too much to produce it - so much that they can't make a decent profit on it.

Baz, Shylock was right. I don't think RH would say that. Here are some other reviews:

• GeorgeZibbos :

"What an absolute sham. Shylock was right all along."

• yayay :

"I'm now resigned to believing that Mr Shylock may have been right all along."

• Rosewall :

"[His] arguments are coherent. I might add that they are often more coherent than the "rampers."

• Sabzahmed :

"Shylock, you've been warning people about SGZ…My regret is I've been among the few that haven't listened and have topped up several times instead. And now I'm a lot poorer for it."

• malkie :

"much as it pains me I find it difficult to fault your posts."

• VincentVega :

"if you wanted to take somebody to war alongside you with a comprehensive understanding of the risks that you were getting into then shylock would be in the top 3."

• Bigbadbaz :

"Love him or loathe him he definitely does research." (2016)

"Love him or loathe him his predictions were way way more correct than TB's." (2023)

Baz, don't confuse me with wee Graham.

I loved him, baz.

AFAIK, Scotgold have never revealed how much silver they produce. Isn't that odd considering that it's far and away their biggest commercial product by volume?

They need to come clean on this. They weren't spending the cash on the development work they specified in the fundraising RNS's -- and the real picture is even worse because they had varying amounts of gold revenues throughout this period. Where did the money go? And how much is now left? Very reasonable questions, which unfortunately won't be answered by a mine visit or a one-to-one with any director because it's classified as inside information. The next RNS needs to spell it out and be honest (for once) about the likely need for more cash in the foreseeable future. On past form, they won't do this but if they want to rebuild trust, they've got to.

I hope they would throw PIs a bone if they had any to throw. Even one profitable week where they covered all operating and admin costs would be worth shouting about. OTOH, if they still can't get their head above water, the latest cash raise won't last for much longer and they may not be able to raise more unless at a very dilutive level.
