Just curious, did you happen to read what I wrote? Either in the past couple of days or back when the ADSP pump was going on? The fact is, neither the shorts or longs that joined in for the momo run did their DD. But the fact is that A@P didn't differentiate between the ADSP longs that may have been in for a longer period and those that joined in for the momo play. My opinion is that A@P showed a depraved indifference to decency and respect to people that had nothing to do with the hype and pump that you referred to. Why don't you go back and read what I was writing back at the time that the pump and subsequent fall was happening and see if you think that I am pro-hyping/pumping or if my position about taking joy in other peoples pain was any different. I'll give you a hint, The Truthseeker's second press release sounded a lot like what I was saying on this thread back then.
So what about the ADSP longs that were in the stock before it was being hyped? Why would anyone delight in their pain?

By your logic, the less sophisticated shorts that got hurt in the ADSP fiasco deserve to have their noses rubbed in it since they also didn't do their DD. Hopefully, a lot of people, both short and long, learned a lesson, but you will never be able to convince me that taking pleasure in another person's misfortune is anything less than disgusting.
