I am a very infrequent poster as I really don't wish to add to the noise on this board. I look in just about every day but I am no expert so I choose not to join in, but I am learning. I would never act on the say so of any single poster but I try to get an overview of the potential for any stock to make me some money. I am a voyeur on quite a few BBs but this is by far the most interesting one I have ever seen. I do read each RNS and look to the board for interpretation by some of the more sensible posters but certainly not the papers. Although I'm no expert, I have done quite well out of UKOG so far. I first invested during the Horse Hill exitement last summer and after the discovery RNS, the value of my stock quickly fell to about 20% of what I'd paid a few weeks earlier. Now I'm quite a philosophical type of person so I thought "sh1t – I had told my wife I was going to put that money to one side for a rainy day". I'd also made the mistake of investing in COMS which fell to about 10% of the price I paid. The £2000 I'd told my wife I would look after was now worth about £300. I was starting to think this game was not for me and that I should give up but I had a growing feeling that the Horse Hill "failure" was in fact a success. I could see then how apallingly the press treated the discovery. It was the appointment of Nutech and a presentation by Stephen Sanderson earlier this year that made me believe there was an awful lot more to come from UKOG so with the share price at just above 0.5p I chucked in another £2000 (please don't tell my wife). I knew there was news to come but OMG – I came back from Prague 3 weeks ago and my portfolio was £10K+ up because of UKOG. It's now tempting to cash in but I now feel there is so much more to come from UKOG that it could transform the financial situation of my family for ever. The really astonishing thing to me is the amazing number of negative posters on this board. I've seen attacks on other boards but nothing on this scale. They definitely hunt in packs and they must be organised as the attacks are often relentless and go on for hours. I've even checked out the BB on weekends (sad I know) and while there is just tumbleweed on most BBs the UKOG BB is under attack by a plague of trolls. Why would this happen on a Saturday afternoon? I do believe that no deramper would bother with a bad share so what do these attacks say about UKOG? I've decided to hang onto my UKOG shares even though I'm well up and £10K is a useful lump of money to me. I'm going for the full life changing possibilities that I feel this share offers. I don't even plan to start slicing until we reach 9p and even then it will be a very thin slice and I'm staying with this all the way up to £1 and beyond. Let the tree grow and live off the fruits – I told you I was philosophical.
