What a giggle! Rampers getting hot under the collar because the virgintrader has said the emperor has no clothes.

If the Rampers were serious and professional investors (which they are not) they would be aware of the legal risks of misleading the market for which there are serious penalties.

But those who don their dirty macks and sunglasses and creep incognito, not wishing to be recognised as they enter into the sleazy bulletin boards have themselves to blame. Like live peep shows in Soho bulletin boards are mostly for jerks who don’t want to put in the effort to find true love. Bulletin boards are sort of financial girlie magazines.

But please don’t complain too much about them – some bureaucrat will come along and ban them and then we will all lose their entertainment value.

Unfortunately there were a lot of burnt fingers yesterday at CHAR. Last minute panic buyers taken in by the rampers. It can be a hard lesson to learn.

Good article mate. Yes KGP does look like a good share but, some of hose BB guys really piss me off.

They shout anyone down who does not agree with them.

Alibi,

It seems that you my friend did not even read the article in your rush to put me down.

Have another read and you will see that the article is not about whether GKP is a good share or not. Yes I do think it is a good share as it happens, but that was not the subject of the piece.

Of course the share price is not all based on bullshit and I did not say it was. Next time read before you shout it will save you a lot of wasted energy.

p.Lord,

My commenting on the antics of certain posters on BB’s has nothing to do with whether I think GKP or CHAR are good shares or not.

As it happens I do think GKP is a great share and yes I have done my research. So next time you should actually read the article properly before you go jumping to conclusions.

And you my friend come across as the rampers arch rival…the Deramper. Before knocking the virtues of posters singing the praises of GKP you should do as you preach and go and do some research about GKP. The price of GKP does not require talking up to get above £1.00. It will get there and a good way past all by itself based on the fact that they are sitting on billions of barrels of oil just in case you or anybody else reading your silly article doesnt know.

I’m with you GKP and CHAR were ramped through the roof friday.

They have no shame.

Me too.

I think Gulf Keystone is a good share in the longer term and it is good to see what other people think via the BBs but ramping is a real problem up and down.

Virgin Trader hi,

I agree with you. Bulletin boards can be good for additional research and opinion but there is also a lot of ‘buy buy buy’ rubbish that you have to sift through first.

Paddy hi,
It seems some people have been quick to bite my head off having read what they wanted to hear rather than what I actually wrote.

At no point did I say GKP was not a good buy, in fact I have some shares myself, I only wish I had bought sooner.

My point was about the risk to virgin traders like myself of panic buying based on nothing but bulletin board comments, I was not commenting of whether gkp or any other stock was a good or bad buy.

It is very easy when you read bulletin boards to get carried away by other people’s enthusiasm.

It seems to me that research, patience and more research is what it is all about. Oh and some very good timing.
