I think if you took a poll of who was paid and who was not paid to hype or bash a stock the not paid list would be much shorter. Sad to say but where there's money there will be creeps. Even on this "better than most" message board I think the number of "insiders" (brokerage types etc.) would be enough to make you choke on your lunch. Regular people are much more fun to be around, I can't wait until there's more of us posting on these threads. In the early days of the Internet it was alot better because the brokerage types hadn't discovered the Internet yet ... it was just us nerds. Here's to hoping for the return of the nerds. Lola:)

That " Confessions of a paid basher " is a hoax story that was made up Oct. 31 ( Halloween ) and the gist of the story is the guy published it and right at the very bottom - not on your excerpt he explains that it is a hoax. Just look at the name of the company he claims to work for ( Now imagine what the initials would look like F.A.K.E.). I saw this posted on A@P's thread on Thurs.
