If people like RUGRAT, who posted a few posts ago and is someone who has made many very substantial and deeply researched contributions which have been much appreciated here, are not yet linked up to a new comms channel, I think we lesser mortals can take SG's assurance that it is purely a matter of admin and overload that can be sorted out as simple fact - and relax.

I have made a request and wait to see.

Sg, can you add me - battery has my email address, thanks.

I'm no fool and I'll post where I like, if that annoys you ... tough. Let people take notice of whomever they like. Oh, and learn to speak for yourself neddo, too many like to speak for others. Own yer anger. Grow a pair.

Secret seven :-), 'preventing newbies from what is goin on'... come off it neddo, you have been on here long enough to know IOF information inside out and where to find it.

If I'm looking at another share, I use the search box and look at the RNS's and any other information I can pick up off the internet searches. When has anyone asked a question on here that has not been answered?

Mountains out of mole hills come to mind, what on earth do you suspect is going on?

[n3tleylucas] 20/7/2013 11:30

"how sad and full of self importance you are, very disappointed in a group I respected"

More fool you then.

I am also a long termer who does not post much, but as has been said, we are waiting for IO1&2 news and IO3 is not far away. This period waiting period will be over soon and then there will be some figures for PI's to get their teeth into and use the figures to see what we can expect to achieve with IO4 etc.
I do hope SG keeps us informed, otherwise IOF will be flooded with emails enquiring about various aspects of the business.

Thanks a lot madchick

edit...the lake!!

[rugrat2] 20/7/2013 09:45

Sg - glad you have posted to reassure those of us that are not on 'the other' bb, that it is not intentional. However I don't quite understand how those that 'are missing but still interested' would get in touch if they don't know that it has kicked off? Needless to say, please put me in the loop. Thanks.

[peterz] 20/7/2013 09:40

Gone to lse home page. Is there a link to Bulletin Boards??

[madchick] 20/7/2013 09:22

Another interesting post from bladey on LSE

[silverpen] 20/7/2013 09:11

Good morning all!
I am a first time poster having followed this thread and the lse bb for sometime.
Just to say I agree entirely with the above comments and feel it is important for long standing investors to be kept briefed about events.
I know, through personal contacts that the IOF story is compelling and that the fundamentals are in place for a superb future - but short/medium term patience is required.

Thanks for the explanation skylite - although it would have been nice to have had this explanation a lot earlier (the "other" board was mentioned again some while back and when people queried, superg did his mysterious "I'll email you privately" thing and I asked then for a public post to explain but none was forthcoming, which, to me, just made the whole thing seem more underhand).

I am also happy just to wait for news when it comes as that is really only when it counts for anything in any case. I've appreciated - and still greatly appreciate - all the info posted here. I guess it's just that next time (if any of you do this on another board) it should be done with a bit more transparency. If there's no explanation, it feels like you've been conned! Ethically, I feel Lib should have been invited to that board because he put a lot of work into helping superg collect all those names (or he should have been asked to stop if by then it had already been decided to keep it small). However, Lib seems more chilled about this, which is a good thing, or maybe he refused to be on the smaller board. Malachey also has an extremely good point about who then is superg et al representing when they ask questions of the BoD if the information isn't actually fed back to us. On the other hand, I would hope that the BoD isn't giving out market sensitive information; otherwise they are also acting illegally and I have more faith in them than that.

Anyway, sorry to be taking the moral high ground but I just need to say it before moving on quite happily and forgetting it.

I'm looking forward to some news so that there's something hopefully more positive to talk about. Again, a huge thanks for all that's been posted here and a preemptive thank you for all the information that I am sure will continue to be posted. Although I've had my little rant, as malachey says (you have made some great posts, malachey!), there's a lot of appreciation from I imagine everyone here for the research and information posted now and in the future. Thanks.

There was no intent to leave anyone out, it just all got chaotic, if you recall the timing of the mention of it, pre results it was a little chaotic on a number of fronts.

I didn't have a tick list, and didn't want it flooded form the start in case it wasn't suitable.

My thought process was that whoever was missing and still interested would mention it at some point.

Busy today but will sort through posts later.

Don't read anything into not being included. I completely forgot about friends too and was reminded very recently about it.

Malachey I post on the other bb, occasionally. There are more posts on here than on there, in my view there's nothing on there that hasn't been posted on here and still is. I can assure you there are no secrets being kept within a small group and not amongst the wider community. SuperG, and let's face it he's energy behind a lot of the research and sharing of knowledge, has said many times in the past, on here, it is not in his nature to withhold information that benefits all, if he's cottoned on to something, good or bad, my guess is it would be on here first.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I mean it with respect to all. I think the other board was set up and evolved a little to take a less cluttered shape and that can't be the case if everyone is invited, it will become a mirror image of this bb, in many ways to me the other board is less diverse than this which I think is why ALL the other people that have left comments on there do so on here with more regularity.

The fact it's quiet on here at the moment shouldn't be taken as an indication that the other board is buzzing with information and comms. Again, as Sg as pointed out, all the research has been done, there's nothing to add; most posts now are the impatient musings of those sat waiting for the "ping". It's the same on the other bb, where days can go by without a single post, and I mean days not just a day. It's quiet because it's done, we await the roll out plan to executed.

GLA.

Malachey

Great post - I agree entirely.

[ammons] 20/7/2013 07:37
