Odd characters4 Feb 2021 10:44
There are some very good, well informed, posters for ODX, and I am grateful for the time they take to post their inputs, connections, thoughts, and insights. Obviously it should all be used it to further your own research, and make your own decisions.
There are others, I call them the odd characters (OCs), that are just noise. They claim to be invested, but they're angry folk that add no worthy commentary. They oppose anything and everything. They do indeed state things such as "no sales", "no news" etc.. which can be seen as factually correct, but they don't seem to be seeing the potential, or seeing the bigger picture, the world, as Covid shapes it, around us. The amount of information in the public domain, added with what Omega are doing, there are many positives to be seen.
The OCs, often referred to as de-rampers, often claim the positive investors, and particularly 'overly' positive investors (OPIs) are rainbow chasers, where as actually it would come across that they are in fact the chasers of rainbows... looking for quick news, to make a quick buck and move on. I don't block them, personally. I do find them annoying. I'm sure they could make the same points in a more polite, for want of a better term, way, but they choose the tone. Each to their own.
There are the OPIs, often referred to as rampers. Similar, but in complete contrast, to the OCs. Similar in that they don't add much value. They copy and paste random links to random tenders, with no relevance to ODX and use the term 'Boom' and so on. Their tone is much happier though, obviously, and so not as grating as the tone of the OCs. I don't filter OPIs either, as occasionally a new link or research lead might present itself.
I agree, more timely news would be great. But growing a business, expanding products, increasing production capacity, increasing staff numbers (>50%), all takes time. Many of us have come to learn that Colin tells investors things when needed. He sets out a strategy, and anything in Omegas control will be delivered upon. He doesn't feel the need to let investors know everything is on track (though the latest twitter campaign of to do lists is much appreciated), but chooses instead to tell them new or completed stuff when it happens. A measured approach some might say. Not rampy whatsoever.
So BB users, especially the newbies, don't trust anything you read on this BB 100%. Use it as a guide feed further research of your own.
