This is the most obnoxious post that I have ever written. My apologies to participants and lurkers who are much better off to CLICK ON BY. Cheeky Kid, Personally I have had it with you. If your last post was directed at one individual it would have been nice on your part to send it via PM. You wanted it for everybody to see it didn't you ? It is embarrassing and humiliating for you to go away peacefully. You had made up your mind to leave as much collateral damage behind you as possible, didn't you ? These posts that you had dusted off are certainly legit and no doubt not a pretty site. Consider this though. People do have the right to change their point of view ( posts that you've provided are after all a year old ). I'm not sure whether or or not kidl had a change of heart about this company, but I'm glad he did change his ways. It appears to me that he had immensely grown in terms of investment approach. I did notice a profound change in his attitude which is very visible on many threads in which he participates. My statement is perhaps too complementary and judgmental but I feel compelled to voice my HO. Unfortunately you do not show any signs of investment maturity despite the time you devote to cruising on SI and net in general. Dusting off old, long forgotten trash won't win you friends. Many of us did our darn best to keep you informed via PM, answer your questions and concerns promptly, to accommodate your need and desire for updated info etc. To comfort you whenever you felt down and what we got in return is a barrage of insulting links, comparisons to infamous company and all the trash that never had any connection with this company. You made an extra effort to disregard our good will. How noble of you to bring over your SI friends and let them piss all over this outfit. You are a whiner by nature, negative commentator, and someone who cannot distinguish between what is considered helpful or damaging to the image of the company and it's shareholders. Anyone ( and there were many ) who is so dissatisfied with his/her investment should have sold it a long time ago ( on any run up, loss or not ) and move into something else in an attempt to make more money or simply recuperate losses. This strategy is popular and used by many disciplined and knowledgeable investors. Hanging around like a bad smell and without thinking attacking the company with "little links" and allusions is a sign of a devilish nature as much as immaturity and you should at the very least make an effort to grow up. Your SI name is only half true. You are a Kid all right. If SGGNF will one day make you money, I can honestly say that you will not deserve it. Many of SGGNFs misfortunes were beyond management's control ( I did explain it to you via PM, didn't I ? ). I for one am a day trader and that's how I make my living for a few years now. I do not post on SI much as it interferes with my trading psyche. Also there are enough self proclaimed investment "gurus" on SI. I have a deep conviction that SI doesn't need one more. I wouldn't take lightly any "sheep" breathing on my neck and hanging onto every word I say and accuse me, as it's often the case, for their financial misfortune in the event the investment goes sour. Happens all the time in the stock market. In light of my trading/investment strategy I seldom take a long position in any single company. I post on this thread since this is one of the few investments that I have chosen for my long portfolio. I stayed with this company through very though times and I will stay on board until I see it succeed. This is my personal choice and since I've made that choice I will fight for the good name of this company and fend off any attack combined with "vulgar urinating".. This thread feels like home to me I've met some participants in person, many I do keep in touch with by phone and many became my good friends. Let me assure you there is no Boys Club. We shared many laughs and some sorrows and it brought us closer as friends. I treasure that. You have every right to hate me for these harsh words, but you would never be good material for a friend therefore I do not care as my theory in life and investment is to NeverLookBuck. To finish my rumblings let me tell you one more thing. Sungold had always been considered a very speculative play. All or nothing if you will. Such an investment shall attract only aggressive investors who do understand speculative market and the risk involved and realize that the road to riches could be winding and very long. I would kindly encourage you to re-evaluate your investment strategy as it appears to me that your investment priorities are out to lunch. Blaming others for your investment misfortune is not considered polite and classy and it reflects lack of investment knowledge. It is your money therefore you are the one responsible for the balance of your portfolio. What other investors think and say about the potential of certain companies/plays shall mean SQUAT to you/us. Our investment decision shall be based on one very important aspect, which is described by one way overused term (hate it) DD. DD should take place BEFORE not after you had place your order to buy. Good luck to you.

CK, if it was for me and me only, why not do it by PM? I guess I'll have to apologize in advance to all but you for not responding to your post by PM but I do have my reasons: Message 7647911 As for Kidl, I have no idea where you are coming from. the answer is very simple: I did have specific questions and concerns at the time. I voiced them and they were answered to my satisfaction. Should new ones arise, I will not hesitate to voice them again. Constructive / challenging versus destructive / irrelevant comments, that's the difference between you and me. Be well and stay away from spec stocks; they don't suit you:-)
