Hype Police, it would be interesting to know what makes you such an authority on hyping. So, to say "don't buy HLX" would be a
hype? But it is not a hype to say such things (and in a great, unrestrained abundance) as "running into HLX" is "running for slaughter"? And a sudden flurry of posts full of such arguments both on SI and Yahoo is just nothing - just an exercising of the right of free speech? The true and most dangerous hype is not an advice to buy
stock or not, but a conditioning of minds of investors, forming their
attitudes to a stock, and Slider's art and tactics in such activity
is truly unique.

Webster defines "hype" as "extravagant promotion or advertising."

Sorry, but your posing as "Hype Police" is ridiculous.
