I've got a good game to play called "lets find FATHERSTOCK!"
Here's how you play. First, glance at the last couple of hundred posts on the "Luxury resort for the ill - Medical Resorts" thread, and see if you can see any from our frequent poster, FATHERSTOCK. Then, once you've realized his posts are no where to be found, find out what happened to him!
Ready, set, go!!! Okay, I win. FATHERSTOCK has changed his name to TOPCAT1 and is now posting absolutely identical posts as the poster on StockHouse that goes by the name of Top Cat - a well known and well respected poster on the StockHouse forum.
But wait, this cant' be. A well respected poster such as Top Cat wouldn't post on another forum as someone else and never disclose his true identity... would he??? Hmmmm. But what would he stand to gain by such an act... I wonder!!!
He couldn't be posing as another poster in order to create more hype about a stock could he? hmmmm.
No, not Top Cat, it couldn't be. I mean, we all know him all so well and know without a doubt that he wouldn't do such a thing. And, just hypothetically speaking of course, if he ever did do such a thing, he would be way to smart and entrepreneurial to only have one other pseudo. Top Cat would probably have many different pseudos and possibly many different people posting for him (to really give the impression that a lot of people are interested in the chosen stock)! Promoting to take advantage of an option to call and minimize the downside risk to boot is not his style!
No, I refuse to believe that such a thing could be done by a man like Top Cat, who's real name escapes me for the moment (but I'm sure you all know what it is). A man, who offers his services "freely", and only for the sake of seeing his fellow man go from rags to riches, could never be considered (at least, not in my mind) of such insidiousness.
So, knowing Top Cat as well as everyone else on these forums I am certain that he has a very reasonable explanation for this minor mix-up, or error, or aliance, or whatever it happens to be.
Right Top Cat? or TOPCAT1? or FATHERSTOCK? or whoever?
Respectfully yours
