Whilst I appreciate my lack of experience in the markets means I do not understand fully the complex nature of each of my small ish investments. What I see on here is pure schoolyard banter. The I can shout louder than you rubbish is very boring. IMHO if your not invested go away or state it in a subject header. Then the rest of us can AVOID you to get on and enjoy a good old chat and cuppa. I don't need your warnings, I can afford my investment.
"I don't need your warnings, I can afford my investment."
Then filter them! I do, it works a treat - though I tend to filter the rampers (like Parker) as they are generally the ones that are talking the rubbish - in my view.
Hex, I read yours as I know you have said your invested. I did try the blocking (both sides by the way) it leads to not actually being able to make sense of a conversation. (They do know this, thus why their volumes)
Whilst sometimes a little negative i do agree with some of what you say. I also appreciate that I think you know more than I do. I am now here as much because of their noise as anything. why would they get so bloody nasty and spend so much time if there wasn't a chance of this going forward. These folks on both sides are certainly not saints here to help me!!!
Couldn't agree more Combos.
Hexam and Brew were called out by a good few people earlier this week.
Not invested but continually knock QBT, take a look at both ID's and ask why they are so vocal on a company they don't believe in, all about their own strategy they are playing.
Good luck all genuine investors.
'why would they get so bloody nasty'
The only nastiness I see is from the rampers. All the sceptics on here are pretty level headed, factual and open to discussion
Sorry Brew, almost spat my tea out on that post of yours, level headed you are not, you are the most negative poster on this board and you hold no shares.
Parker you're not completely innocent in this game of handbags.
Take today's example, I agree with a lot of what you say about the MDK stuff. It makes sense and is exactly the kind of thing we should discuss here. However, I also agree with Hex that it is pure conjecture and you're wrong to push it so hard as if it's a nailed on certainty.
Also, if we're being honest here, your writing style, posting habits and subject matters are identical to the artist formally known as Jambone.
And if you are Jam resurrected as another ID, as many most likely suspect, then it undermines all your arguments.
Fess up time, are you Jam in disguise?
@ Zesty
I'm purely standing up for my investment here, I have looked back at Jambone's history and made some notes on research done by that poster of which I agree with, anyone can check another posters history out in the members are hence why the link I guess?
You might want to ask where Hex and Brew also appeared from I guess? been a good few poaters calling these pair out earlier this week.
You might also ask why if no investment is held why is anything remotely positive attacked 24/7
“I also appreciate that I think you know more than I do.”
I’m not sure I do at all Combos, certainly as far as QBT themselves go as I don’t think anybody knows much as they release very little news and even less that is evidenced - so we’re all just speculating. As long as everybody accepts that it’s ok but some dress up speculation as fact and it’s that which is annoying (to me anyway) and why I use the filter button for certain posters (as well as for those only interested in name calling).
Good post combos. I too read and try to research what both sides are saying.
Brings a bit of balance and stops me running away with myself.
You sound a bit like me. Hold on maybe you are me. Or am I you?
As far as I can see there is a nasty nature to both sides and certainly an arrogance of I know best in a lot of posts.
Difficult to understand when I know, that whilst some research heavily and some not at all, the only information anyone can have is what is made public.
An opinion is then formed based on what they understand.
Why then spend so much time and effort into trying to implant this opinion on others? make your decision, invest or don't. Leave others to do the same. If you are then hear I would naturally expect you to be invested. some investors may be more sceptical than others but invested all the same.
I'm confused Awl. Am I you? certainly not feeling like me today!!!!
Dunno. I had a kebab last night so not feeling myself either.
A sensible conversation at last. Haha. Good luck pal.
Same to you. this time next year Rodney!
