Hi Hammy,

Made my day that you have come to the board, you been lurking long ?

I see the share price is flying now that the trials are starting.. Well so some novice said in the indie.

EDIT: we must stop feeding the trolls, so hard to resist isn't it.

the barron - as I said, I only posted as I'd been blamed for all the pro-Phorm comments on here.
If Alex and chums have a pop at me, and this is the same Alex who threatened to hit me if I turned up at his demo, then I reserve the right to respond.

Deko - so lad to see you can post something other than "Doomed".

Share price up again today, like it has been all week :-)

What's new? They lied to the Home Office too.

Phorm – Webwise and Open Internet Exchange

"Furthermore the Commissioner’s views are based on the current understanding of the Phorm products before the upcoming trial or roll out by any of the ISP have taken place which should provide more information about their use in practice."

We'll just have too see - won't we...

I am sorry that you could not understand that - let me know the names of the educational establishments you attended and I will write to the Government and demand their closure.
When will you understand you are not in charge of the Great British public what rites do you think you have to demand the closure of an educational establishment.

We are free to think, move, speak we are not held to ransom by the ravings of a person who has tried many times to take over everyone’s computers and failed....

Lets be honest now how many bright ideas have you started and lost money on, we do know of some but the exact figure would be nice for reference.

That must happen often to you - why haven't you got used to it?

Hey Phorm (ooops gave away your secret Hamster?)

Just some food for thought for you - I am mirroring Alex, as are hundreds of people. He is NOT your threat - WE are your threat.

C'mon, dig some dirt on me - put it in the public eye. Humiliate me - lets see if you and your quickly falling Empire can do it.

BTW, the NMAP Scan was a nice touch, as were the 200 attempts to access my PC last week - lol. (not aimed at anyone in particular - just running away with the keyboard)

Well if you are too scared to use your correct name and so many new accounts getting added.

Wonder what will happen when the adds get blocked as we all do and many request mac codes to move elsewhere to suppliers that will not use your system.

On a thought are you still solvent after all was it 500,000 shares you used as security for a loan when they were around £30 a share so I presume you are technically broke if they call in the payments due to the high fall in price....

Hamsterwheel is quite a good descriptive Alias. Lots of running on the spot and definitely Phorm will be going nowhere.

Is is Friday? I just realised it is. It's shore the price up day! Happens every week.

Florence - I am not phorm or Kent or Phorm's PR.
I'm an ordinary shareholder who thinks Phorm is a good investment and does not impinge everyone's privacy in any meaningful way.

Even Alex (who posts on my board frequently) does not think I'm Phorm.

Once again, Alex is incorrect. This is my first post on this forum. But Alex is no stranger to unsubstantiated inaccuracies.

If you want to read more about Alex, try this link for an amusing read :

Which unsubstantiated inaccuracies are you referring to (specifically). I read that whole thread and couldn't see what you were getting at.

I'm still looking forward to a convincing and reasoned debate about why we should embrace this system and what good it will do .. but there doesn't seem to be anyone out there who can do it!

Lets give Hamsterwheel a chance to try and convince us .. we are reasonable people open to discussion ..

He stopped posting on ADVFN because you're concept of debate is to hurl personal insults isn't it?

I gave up doing that before puberty - what happened to you?

And, of course, you can't imagine what you may have said to provoke him?
