RE:Funny how tamaracktop Zouz, sorry to say this but you're the one having placed TT on a pedestal, previously referring to him with qualifiers such as "professor" and now "captain".
Granted, TT was a very active poster on this board but while some bashed him, others took him for what he was - an entertaining enthusiast - understanding he had no skin in the game, other than his reputation. It's a handful of people, such as yourself, who elevated him beyond reasonable; noting that, there was a time when you, yourself, fell in love with XBC and blindly pumped it...
While I thought some of TTs bashers were over the board, I equally thought the same about those (as yourself) idolizing him.
Perhaps a (expensive) lesson for the future; don't fall in love with a stock - or overweigh it in your porfolio - and try to keep more level headed when doing your DD, commenting on it and supporting likeminded posters. At the end of the day, it all boils down to maturity - which was lacking from a number of posters (bashers and cheerleaders alike), over the past 1.5 years, or so, and which led me (and likely others) to move away from reading this board on a regular basis.
Sorry if I'm offending anyone with my two cents for the day...and, honestly, sorry for the outcome met by XBC as, although I was no longer a shareholder, I still kept it on my watch list, with the hope of, one day, hopping back in. I simply didn't see the opportunity to do so, given the headwinds (i.e. management, covid-driven global logistics challenges, inflation, increase in interest rates etc) and the relentless drop in sp, from its high of $11.55 to now.
GLTA and, again, truly sorry for all those negatively impacted. I also didn't expect this outcome.

Captain abandoning his ship is long seen as a crime whenever a captain comes back and passengers don't, it's seen as shameful behavior. He should be the last person to comment on this board until everyone disappears or until xbc is no longer available on SH which ever comes first.
