Versarien Share Discussion Threads

[loglorry1] 14/11/2019 21:19

Ricketts getting a nice log burner installed for Christmas? Good for him. I guess he's pretty flush after all those share sales and his fat salary all paid for with shareholder money and not a dime of free cash flow generated by VRS in its lifetime.

I guess he's better at burning shareholder cash than logs but a man needs a hoby.


Anyway I wish him a warm and happy yuletide sitting infront of his new carbon monoxide/particulate beltching toy.

Good post RTG. I believe the majority of vrs shareholders are pleasant honest people. You being one of them. Sadly this board has been spoilt by a handful of selfish greedy morons, and as a result i tend not to read the board. But noticed your post so thought i would reply Great cartoons btw

eg8 - talking about 'significant time and effort' is all very well but I was here long before you and I fear I'll be here long after you've gone. I've also read everything they've ever produced, from the beginning, which I don't suppose you have.

You can be as sanctimonious as you like, but have you been through the last few years accounts? I thought not. I suggest you get the last three years, and put one on each of three screens and go through them in parallel to see what has been achieved with all that investor money. I did and decided the answer was nothing but an overflowing basket of dreams.

Reading your post, it's clear that you're ruled by your emotions. Throughout there are emotive terms - 'morality', 'ethics', 'detractors', 'mercenaries', 'lies', 'anxiety', 'fear', 'moral', 'parasites', 'predate', 'negativity', 'offensive', 'repulsive' - and even more, taken in context. How does that help accurate decision-making?

By contrast, look back and see how much discussion there was on here of the numbers when the accounts came out. None, that I remember. And yet, when you're considering an investment, surely historical performance (as vetted by the auditors!) is a crucially important input? Far more important certainly than the general opinion of some random advfn posters?

In one respect at least you're certainly right - 'In the end It will all be of no consequence to LTHs'. But be aware that knife cuts both ways.

Roger, you are one of the best things about this board;love your cartoons and your sensible posts.Keep it up!

[aintree77] 14/11/2019 20:31

RTG a very honest post, keep up the good work and keep the cartoons flowing, cheers.

[evergreen8] 14/11/2019 20:15

Roger thank you for eloquently expressing my and no doubt many others feelings.

There is such a profound difference in the morality and ethics of the rival positions of those that post on this board, the LTH invest significant time and effort to investigate, evaluate and report factual observations for the greater good of our community in contrast the detractors, who are evidently coordinated mercenaries who disseminate lies and distortions to cultivate anxiety and misplaced fear in those that are less engaged in order to access shares for their paymasters without moral consideration.

The idea of parasites is repulsive to me and I am sure many others here feel precisely the same in relation to the hoard of detractors that predate upon the site 18 hours a day.

In the end It will all be of no consequence to LTHs, the incredible potential of VRS will be realised but how unfortunate that amongst our ranks will be those who orchestrated this constant negative and offensive behaviour towards individuals that we hold in high regard.

Club - you're telling fibs again!

It's 6 years, not 2...

[supernumerary] 14/11/2019 19:42

Which is worth what, exactly? What we paid you for it?

Anyway, why are you setting unreasonable expectations again? Being naughty?

[rogerthegrouch] 14/11/2019 19:29

Fest,

Not sure why I’d be universally hated. I present the bull case fairly with the facts that are present in all the RNSs. I do this, not for my personal gain as I’m actually still in top up mode so a lower price would benefit me, but because I care about other investors and want them to see the truth and not be swayed by an erroneous bear case. It saddens me, and indeed Neill, that LTHs are selling down due to false spin and negativity and leaving the ship just before the real money is made.

I try to bring humour through cartoons to help investors enjoy the ride by filling the short gaps between news but also to undermine some of the outlandish lies and false narrative spread by detractors at the same time. Lucian recently reached out to me to purchase a cartoon and takes them as they are intended - as light hearted fun. Even our true enemy doesn’t hate me. If I can make some money in the process for charity then even better.

Neill is working so hard and has our best interest at heart, even yours, but more through proxy of you owning shares (if you actually still do). When you attack him about advent calendars or call him incompetent etc this offends me as I see a man working his nuts off for the greater good and us only to be criticised by a greedy man hiding behind a keyboard. This unfortunately brings out my darker side and I frankly resent you for making this come out on here. I’m ashamed of myself for lowering myself to your level.

So I’m not really sure why you would say im universally hated. Perhaps you could articulate what you bring to the table and how you are helping others?

[tini5] 14/11/2019 19:15

Go take your vitamins Club and wipe the foam from your lips, there’s a good chap, you’ll give yourself an aneurysm.

[laginaneil] 14/11/2019 19:14

Hello Folks,
I notice in Neill's 'tweet' that he put the same link in twice.

'This is an innovate event, that is why I was confused . I am on a panel talking at the @UKAeroInstitute conference on Wednesday , I was talking at the @UKAeroInstitute Boeing accelerator. Rachel keeping me real and busy :)'

Was one of them meant to be a link to a Boeing accelerator event?

[festario] 14/11/2019 18:45

It's more entertaining here, that's why I hang around.That, and to put folk straight.But there is much more sensible and constructive discussion on the Twitter group. All views are welcome too, how refreshing is that!

[festario] 14/11/2019 18:42

That's the one. You don't know what you're missing, it's great!

[tini5] 14/11/2019 18:38

Lmao the same Twitter group you were all wound up over because you weren’t invited?

Glad I left.

[festario] 14/11/2019 18:32

Roger, you should see the Twitter group, you are universally hated on there. You just don't see or hear it.Me? The day I start caring what a nonentity like you thinks about anything, is the day I give up.

[1teepee] 14/11/2019 18:29

You are in the same boat as them matey, you are just unaware

[rogerthegrouch] 14/11/2019 18:22

Can I ask a genuine question Fest and Club? What does it feel like waking up each day knowing that you are loathed by 100s of people? Something I can only speculate extends to the real world.

Personally it would make me feel terrible and I’d change. Serious question.

[1teepee] 14/11/2019 18:21

The log burner is definitely a strategic find raise date , the 22nd or 23rd of November. Ready old gits, your toes will be warm again soon in the teepee;)

[johnveals] 14/11/2019 18:06

Just think, if anyone was short, say at about 60p, and news dropped, how much could they be on the hook for? A soaring share price and shares in short supply, the classic short squeeze. Oh yes.

Is a log burner being installed next week a simple statement of fact, a wind up or allegorical?

Who knows. Who cares. I don’t.

I don’t suppose the monkeys would either, let’s be honest, but the organ grinder might.
