Hi Glenn :-)

Kayak, sorry but thats where you are wrong on the Trading Standards, office.

They do have a new policy/mandate to get stuck in and help online trading/customers/traders.

Please check it out at your nearest office, its big business for them now.

Sorry about the spelling.

The FSA have already been approached by shareholders.

I am told the majority of the AGM is given over to the FD to go through "the figures".

Hope Clem has kept those cab receipts. He may need them.

5M .... "Admin"

I SUPPOSE jAPANESE geisha girls don't come cheap...

Clem,

Can you explain to me why the following two (the only two) posts on a thread with in excess of 50000 posts has resulted in the username : Chris Mouseday being banned?

I dread to think what would happen if you were to do the same to each and every one of the 700000 individual users that ADVFN now boasts.

Morning Chris abuse@advfn for your reference if anybody starts trashing this thread.

Chris Mouseday - 15 Dec'06 - 08:17 - 51415 of 51419


Quite right too.

Dear Clem,

Could you please ban the poster "Chris Mouseday" because he wished me a good morning.

Kind regards
A user of a free (public) bb

ADVFN PLC

('ADVFN' or 'the Company')

Preliminary Results for the Year Ended 30 June 2006

* ADVFN user numbers up over 30% to over 700,000 (2004: 540,000)






Post an article on this thread:

So Advfn.com have blocked the long established AFN private investors thread on their bulletin board because it's been overly critical of the management....

.....the Greeks had a word for that misuse of power: "Hubris"

Indeed indeed, Richard.

Chambers seems to have completly lost the plot on advfn.

700,000 users my arse .... 600,000 are Maestro and according to Bullie 50,000 are me and Addo leaving about 50,000 aliases to share among the other 12 users :-)

Do they still use the phrase "unique users" or have they now dropped this after previous complaints by moi and others ?

Oh and to add some balance ... moneyam only has about six users I think :-)

Dil,

using the numbers quoted above, Ashley James and Maestro must share around 500,000 userids then!

Maestro starts about 8 new threads every week on Moneyam.

at least i don't live a double life on advfn under various nicknames...

Surely you're all boasting - I've had to create a new email address to register each of my 76 usernames?

Where did I go wrong?....

can someone be kind enough who isn't banned on advfn to post on here the recent comments on the advfn free thread...looks like its quite active this weekend....5th most posted thread on their site

They're having a go at predicting the share price in a year's time:

Tradx666 = 7.7p
uknighted = 4.4p
Loverat = 3.5p
JonC = 1.8p
Isis = 4.8p
Paeaff = 3.125p
michaeld = 15p
Analyst = price no longer quoted on the market

Yes Analyst is right. 2007 is crunch year. It will either be taken over or run out of cash.

nothing changes there then...same old toss-ers posting..lol!

kayak Those last financials were so iffy re expenditure that it's impossible to tell what's happening with afn. I go along with Patience Wheatcroft and don't trust management one inch.....

Maestro (63)

Most of those 'same old tossers' you so, arrogantly, refer to, are firmly behind the current action being taken and at the present time are in a far better position than you to support that cause. The reason for that is because there minds work in a constructive manner rather than the destructive one you clearly have.

Words mean nothing, the fact you are a non-shareholder means it's none of your business and the type of action you favour only reflects your own twisted take on life in general.

Far from encouraging you to return to ADVFN BB's others should realise that should you manage to do so, any future reasoned and planned action, would no doubt turn into total disaster.

Bloomers

Indeed ! The action taken has brought publicity to the money spending and had the result of ADVFN changing the way they run their business. The AGM on the 10th Jan should see Mr Chambers telling shareholders they can see a change in the way this company is run. Large shareholders (Institutional and Private) have told Clem that this must be the case. (Believe me .... the Institutional investors have been very, very vocal recently).

As for ADVFN not existing next year, well I think for a company with this many eyeballs that very unlikely.

The fact is they have made some mistakes and are now rectifying that. I think we all make mistakes in life and move on.

If, however, you don't rectify when you make a mistake .... you pay the consequence.

My view on the shareprice ?

With the changes 6p - 8p
Without 6p - 8p (because the shareholders will remove the current management)
