This is well off-topic for this list, but, for the record, I've been following OpenBSD -current for about a year, running on VirtualBox, without issue. I've been following the trac notifications since last year, and the only open issue I've seen is an old one indicating problems with software-only virtualisation (no VT-x/AMS-V), which is a documented requirement. Some people have claimed further problems, but there aren't required details (log files) reported to allow follow-up.
Seems like trolling to rant about this here, let alone doing so without getting into that level of specifics.
