This was taken off one of the Raging Bull threads...how many of us have
witnessed this? How many have sold because you felt there was a "negative
vibe" on the thread? Read below:
PAID BASHER GUIDELINES
(copied from other board)
1. Be anonymous
2. Use 10% fact. 90% suggestion. The facts will lend credibility to your
suggestions
3. Let others help you learn about the stock. Build rapport and a support
base before bashing
4. Enter w/ humor and reply to all who reply to you.
5. Use multiple ISP's, handles and aliases
6. Use 2 or more aliases to simulate a discussion.
7. Do not start with an all out slam of the stock. Build to it.
8. Identify your foes (hypsters) and the boards "guru". Use them to your
advantage. Lead them, do not follow their lead.
9. Only bash until the tide/momentum turns. Let doubt carry it the rest of
the
way.
10. Give the appearance of being open minded.
11. Be bold in your statements. People follow strength.
12. Write headlines in caps with catchy statements.
13. Pour it on as your opponent/stock gains momentum, not you.
14. Don't worry about being labeled a "basher". Newbies won't know your
history.
15. When identified put up a brief fight, then back off. Return in an
hour.
16. Your goal is to limit the momentum of the run. Not tank the company or
create a plunge in the stock.
17. Kill the dreams of profits, not the company or the stock.
18. Use questions to create critical thinking, statements to reinforce
facts.
19. DO NOT LIE, NAME CALL OR USE PROFANITY.
20. Encourage people to call the company, 99% won't. They'll take your
word
for claims made.
21. Discourage people for taking the companies word for anything.
Encourage them to call the company. They won't out of laziness.
22. If the companies history/PR's are negative constantly point to that.
Compile a list of this data prior to beginning your efforts.
23. If the price rises blame it on the hype or the PR, temporary mass
reaction, the market, etc. Anything but the stock itself.
24. If other posters share your concerns, play on that and share theirs
too.
25. Always cite low volume, even when it's not.
26. 3-4 aliases can dominate a board.
27. Goad the hypsters into personal debates putting their focus/efforts on
you and not the stock or facts.
28. Promote other stocks would-be investors can turn to instead of the one
your bashing.
WHY BASHERS BASH
1. They want to buy/re-buy more at a lower price so they try to
artificially
bash it down knowing their efforts are temporary at best and the stock
will
rebound soon. THEY ARE THE PRO'S,
2. They bought in at a higher price and must "average down". Lets say they
own shares at .50 and they need to sell soon but the stock is stuck
between
.25 and .35. How do they sell without a big loss? They bash the stock down
to
.15 or so, they buy more shares at the new low price, combine them with
the
other stocks at .50 and they now have a new "average" price of .33 for
their
whole block. That's an easier and faster exit price than their original
.50 They
are not the PRO bashers. They are the idiots with bad timing. But what
they
do can work if they're dedicated enough.
