Ignore the trolls

Ignore the trollsMetal et al,

This messageboard, like most, is infested with trolls. They are trolls of both positive and negative variety.

We have ridiculously optimistic trolls who insist there is a 2.75 buyout offer on the table, but keep ignoring requests for any proof or background on exactly how they know  this is so.

We have delusional types projecting $40 by year's end, but ignoring totally the calls to share with us the basis for how one gets to such a figure.

We have self-appointed authority-figure types who seek to demean any of us who think we deserve a return on our investment in less than a decade or so.

On the other end, are the gloomy trolls.

That is the variety that insists Evolving Gold is going to zero. Will at best decline slowly. Has inept management. Is a repository for dead money. And on, and on, and on.

As is typically the case with extreme -- radically opposite -- viewpoints, both are wrong.

This stock isn't going to make us rich in a year or two. It also isn't going to zero.

But, while we wait for resolution, consider the pathetic track record of the trolls of both extremes as judged by their posts here. Ask yourself, have they projected something accurately, or told you some hard, legitimate information? Have their predictions run true? Ever? Are they just spouting opinions -- poorly informed opinions at that?

I think most of us know the correct answers to those questions.

Good luck to all of us. Even the trolls.
