AVZ Discussion 2022

Dreddb0t has language like this for a bit of fun. As you might guess from the name… Dredd. Nobody is hardly about to be permanently banned from just a single post being moderated. And even if there was numerous, the bans or mutings are temporary. It takes a great many moderations before Dreddb0t to hand out a permanent ban.

So to the poster who was concerned, “take a joke” - the language is simply themed like Judge Dredd but rest assured it’s not going to spray your brain matter over the wall over a single infringement, like the real Judge Dredd.
Wtf? Are you 12?

Wtf? Are you 12?

The personality name etc. chosen for the AI which assesses any content on this forum in accordance with the rules, once it has been reported, was something that was voted for by the forum members who took part in that process some time ago.

I suppose you may see the humour if you imagine the bot is typically only assessing posts written by trolls.

The simple thing I have to say is that there are rules here. There are no sides taken when assessing the rules, otherwise this would be a biased process. The rules are pretty straight forward and when followed the AI will take no issue.

If this is something you cannot reconcile - that is, unbiased moderation and even application of rules - then I suggest you have misunderstood the point of difference of this forum. Typically, it is biased moderation that people run from and arrive here to get away from.

It's clearly touching nerves when my posts are reported and moderated

Be very careful folks.....the ones who keep talking about an insular environment and echo chambers here are not LTH's friends

There's a narrative of opening up ideas, and different points of view from them but it's not genuine

It's purely an agenda to disrupt, deflect, provide doubt and divide

Stay on track

Look to the company announcements for the best insight into the truth and at all times call out corruption, bullshit, mysterious convoluted grandstanding posts, posters who purport to have intel and actually share nothing and above all recognise the shithouse orchestrated attempts by multiple "personalities" here who have zero interest in your wellbeing and even less interest in the success of AVZ

Just received this from ZB, which concludes our discussion:

"Just a note - the rules are 100% consistently applied however only posts which are “reported” using the report function are assessed. This is 99% the reason behind any appearance of a lack of application of the rules. People don’t report them first…

Have a nice day also."



So yes, there is a deliberate and concerted policy of reporting posts in order to disrupt.

So be careful what you post and play the same game with the trolls. Report

However, what is more interesting to me is why this has all begun/escalated in the last week or so?

Trolls or their employers getting VERRRRRY worried methinks.

Hi @zeeb0t . @MoneyBags1348 is good, honest to a fault and ... yes can be abrasive. But he justly calls a troll, a troll. I value his input and prolific posting. Thanks and BR Sparrowhawk
I second this @zeeb0t

Here is 2c worth

Within this thread, an alarming situation has unfolded, trolls with multiple accounts have infiltrated and are prospering after a few unsuccessful efforts, causing disinterest and frustration among genuine users. Despite reports being filed against these trolls, they continue to sow discontent and hinder meaningful engagement. There should be an urgency of addressing this issue to prevent the loss of valuable community members.

It is disheartening to witness the detrimental impact of trolls within this thread. Their disruptive presence has caused valued members, such as @MoneyBags1348, to become disinterested and disengaged. Reports filed against these trolls, including my own, have seemingly fallen on deaf ears, allowing the toxic atmosphere to persist.

Consequences of allowing trolls to dominate the conversation extend beyond the individuals directly affected. As demonstrated by the overwhelmingly positive reactions to @Sparrowhawk12's post (currently at 27), it is evident that many others share the sentiment of discontent. This suggests a growing number of users feeling disenchanted with the platform's slow transformation into a hub for trolls and hostility, we already have HC for that.

@MoneyBags1348's presence within the community holds significant value. Losing an active and respected member due to the persistence of trolls is not only regrettable but also counterproductive. It is crucial to prioritize the retention and well-being of dedicated contributors who enhance the platform's quality and foster a sense of belonging among users.

Immediate action is required to rectify this concerning situation. By swiftly identifying and taking appropriate measures against trolls through further discussion with @MoneyBags1348.

Ignoring the presence of trolls and the impact they have on valued community members will only lead to further disinterest and alienation.

Me thinks Zijin has indicated their TO offer to AVZ. AVZ had refused to come to their table or participate in any discussions with them hence the most recent ICC request.

Take over I do not think so .
More stalling tactics in my view .
So that AVZ run out of funds.
The problem is ZIJIN know they will be exposed for the fraudlent actions and the right of first refusal not been followed.
ICC ruling will clear the path for FT to take action IMO without any negative impact to him and up coming election .
"I am following the law the DRC is a good place to invest in "???.

Though it seems likely stalling shenannigans with this latest ICC action.
I still cant stop comming back to the commentary on the latest announcement.
Seemingly irrelevant (to the announcement of the ICC action) commentary by the company.

"whilst no substantive quantification as to the merits and the quantum of the
damages claim is provided in the Request, it appears on face value that the
amount of the damages claims is based on Jin Cheng holding a 15% interest
and Cominière a 10% interest in Dathcom, thus suggesting that the Claimants
are valuing the entirety of the Manono Project at US$5.66
billion;"

Stating it's not explained what the damages are for, is relevant.

But going on to point out the $ values have a relation to the claimed ownership of C and Z.
And going on to point out that it's in relation to what they value the entire company at.

It's not just some commentary or speculation made off hand in an interview, it's in an official announcement.

To me, AVZ are telling us they are suing for their claimed ownership in the entire project,
I can't think of a circumstance where anyone would do that if they hadn't lost their claimed ownership.

So much of it doesn't make sense, which to me means there's information yet to be released.

Apparently we're expecting an announcement this week, lets hope it's got something good for us
and clears some things up.

Stalling tactics? Purchased for $33million and now demanding $800million for doing nothing? There is definitely more to that then simply stalling one would think.

Either El Presidente is knee deep in the corruption or he's biding his time/awaiting further developments, for whatever reason(s) before he sorts this scheisse.

I firmly believe that if the former, then it will not preclude him taking action and then buying a rather large carpet and a brush.

One thing that is clear, particularly with the international attention related to the importance of lithium, is that if AVZ was gonna be totally screwed over then it would already have happened.
It's sort of too late to do that if DRC does not want to become a Chinese satellite due to the western criticism and rejection that would inevitably follow.

It has not occured and so I think we'll come out of this well.
Just not sure how well.

It seems though that BoD is playing hardball and always has. Onya

Hear, hear.

After being moderated several times, had a private talk with Zeeb0t and mentioned the influx of new posters with multiple accounts.
Stopped posting until the desperate arseholes leave, one way or the other way.

Zeeb0t has the tools to flush out the arseholes, at the end he is the owner of this forum.

If this forum is being abused and the abuse not corrected, the attractiveness of this forum disappears and just becomes another forum, infiltrated by people with alternative motives.

I hope the crap will stop, but in the meantime, it is excellent weather to go out fishing.

Something that takes 15 minutes to legally resolve, adjudicate on ownership based on contracts, is taking 350+ days to get to.

This control over managment is exactly what Cominiere are ignoring and bristling against and was effected more so by Yibin Tianyi’s CPs for investing in AVZ. Cominiere are seeing mouth watering sums and little of it for them as Cong and KabIla wedged in. Perhaps another CP should have been Yibin looks after charity.

If you recall Graeme Johnson’s letters to a cominiere employee (Fwamba posted), reminding him of the company structure @9cardomaha , it can be inferred Cominiere just doesn’t understand or care about the rules.

It’s also a cultural thing, the Francophone way of doing business. Hence the guy who hangs out at Monaco was always the lubricator with his alleged “legalised corruption” concept.

Wow Comminiere getting absolutely roasted on Twitter. Trying to defame AVZ and posters coming back with documents directly calling out the BS.

China are the economy. I’m sorry to say it looks pretty bleak for us with most of their economy relying entirely on Chinese export. And Felix is obviously on the take. This will not spin our way and our government will be arguing about wether we use the term indigenous or aboriginal when performing a welcome to country at a footy match.

I would say a small coterie of individuals here believe they decide who is in and who is out and make it unsafe for people to interact with who ever they like because this coterie of self entitled are regularly bullying (what they want to say is “abrasive”) hence their claims of moderation suggest they might just be the trolls unwittingly.

Anyone who may be interested to contact me can do so direct messages, so that the paranoid types here don’t go on another campaign
