Critic is a has-bean

A WEB chatroom that triggered the downfall of a COFFEE REPUBLIC boss has banned an investor who criticised the sites management.

ADVFN, a site popular among private investors, took action after boss Clem Chambers was slammed by shareholder Glenn Rogers who said he was setting up an action group.

Coffee Republic investors launched a similar campaign to oust former chief Bobby Hashemi.

Mr Chambers said: If you go into a pub and have a go at the publican you get thrown out.

Maestro,

Are you Glenn Rogers ?

no but i'm all behind Glenn...Chambers needs teaching a lesson and things are being planned behind the scenes....advfn could be history soon

LOL

Oi maestro I often got "suspended" from ADVFN in the past but never failed to get back in on the fbb.

Sign up as Mystro and you still keep your identity but do as Kayak says first.

I remember once a few years back two guys signing up as Bu11share , Limsfie1d Chartist , C1em and a few others after being "suspended" by ADVFN , caused havoc for an hour or so but was hilarious ... their names escape me :-)

Good to see this board distinguishes between l's and 1's Bullie :-)

Dil

I think hes run out of those combinations.

according to advfn i'm a rascist for exposing zionism....and my ban is permanent...typical christmas spirit from Chamber of bull-shit

If you use aol or btinternet its difficult to trace your isp address apparently.

I can confirm that maestro is not Glenn Rogers.

Also ... Big Al

This may be actually a good time to buy.

With the impressive turnover increase and the fact that "fees" going out of this company may just about to be dramatically reduced (AGM 10th Jan 07), this could be a great buy opportunity. Lets see what the SP does this week?

New management (???) could see it rocket ?? Could do no worse than under Clem.

Why are "fees" about to be dramatically reduced please?

Because the actions of the action group ??

advfn-shareholders-action@hotmail.co.uk

I believe, will possibly, by the 10th Jan 07, have made them.

The action was started because the "Admin Expenses" of the company, have risen from 816k to 5.2M in three years (in an internet company with fairly fixed costs). With no explanation.

Watch this space.

bloody hell.. 5.2m!!!...thats why we never get a breakdown of subscribers and what cupid bay is making...bunch of thieves imho..if this management can't make money in a friggin bull market they should pack their bags and replace them with chimps who could do a far better job

That is very unlikely DougalDog. Clem and Co. know it is their company rather than yours.

i notice Chambers never buys shares in advfn with his own money or come to that other directors...tight or what?

At some point they will have to stop diluting their own equity share to avoid losing their majority stake.
