Found this interesting post on Yahoo Billserve. It was actually taken from another board by the poster. Don't know if there is any truth here, but it makes a good argument for ignoring certain posters whose motives are incomprehensible regarding their excessive time and effort spent in negative exposition. <<< When you REPLY to bashers you give them an opportunity to earn $5-7.The service agreement they enter into with their employer states their messages will be monitored for content,profanity ,lies etc. but the MMs and the like don't have time to check all their bashers' messages.They usually do only spot checks regarding the stocks the pro basher signs up for for the week.They mainly read the headlines to see if a basher is replying to other posters by name.That tells them the basher isn't just "posting blindly" or repeating the same message over and over since they won't pay those. A basher will milk 3-5 replies to a post at $1-2 each. This way they save time by killing two birds with one stone. The less time they spend reading more messages than necessary the more time they have to post and make money. NEVER ENGAGE A BASHER.Make them read all the posts and think up ways to enter the board by names. NEVER ENGAGE A BASHER; if you do then YOU BECOME THE BASHERS LITTLE HELPER! >>>
