I have some general questions that I want everyone on the thread to answer. Please answer truthfully. Maybe we should take a poll and summarize the answers. This is a question about people's motivations.

1) If you found a stock that you thought was a scam and wanted to expose the "truth," would you:

a) Spend your time working with the SEC to get the
proper authorities to investigate the company,

or

b) Spend your time posting on a public stock thread?

2) How often do you post on a thread you don't own stock in?

a) Never or very rarely,

or

b) Often, from 15 to 20 times per day.

3) If you have questions that you really want answered, would you:

a) Call the company and ask the questions,

or

b) Post them on a public thread, knowing they
probably won't be answered.

I assume most people would answer A, A, A. I know I would. Now, let me change the question, but keep the answers the same. (These questions are for MMPro and TGW.)

4) If you had a short position in a stock and you wanted to get the price to drop so you could cover, would you:

a) Spend your time working with the SEC to get the
proper authorities to investigate the company,

or

b) Spend your time posting on a public stock thread?

5) How often would you post negative commments on a thread that you have an interest in seeing the stock price go down?

a) Never or very rarely,

or

b) Often, from 15 to 20 times per day.

6) If you have misleading and perhaps unanswerable questions that you want to post just raise doubt in people's minds, would you:

a) Call the company and ask the questions,

or

b) Post them on a public thread, knowing they
probably won't be answered.

A basher would obviously answer B, B, B. This is what TGW and MMPro do. They have no interest in asking legitimate questions and having them answered. They only want to post misleading and inaccurate information that will cause people to sell their shares cheap.

Think about how most people would answer those questions, and think about the motivation for why certain people would do the exact opposite. There is a reason people do what they do. Don't believe the hype, and don't believe the BS.

Cheers,
Dave
