<LOL> Its' funny to me, of course on PNDA, I'm definately a Bear, but I sold my position of PNDA, I profited a little, but , thats the end of it for me. As you know, the exchanges on PNDA were always in good fun w/o any of personal attacks, slander and misinformation like on the RMIL thread. Its a red flag when shareholders attempt to discuss the merits of their investment and non-shareholders relentlessy make claims that shareholders are Hype-ing & promoting!
On PNDA , I was a definite Bear, but I can't see trying to destroy shareholders 'personally', of course Paul offered little and set himself up for attacks from the thread, but I mean in general. I don't see when you cross that line where you get so pathologically obsessed by a co., stock, that you relentlessly slam the stock, hour after hour, day after day, week after week...trying to prove it a scam, it at least 'suggests' there is 'motivation' to slam so relentlessly.
On PRST, they proved that there were MM's using various monickers to slam PRST and tank the co.. On the CCEE thread there was a guy booted from S.I. that was discovered to be working for a P.R. firm , hired to slam CCEE...
So, to brush this off, that there are hired guns that slam stocks for hire, is not an objective observation.
My point, guys like Droog, intelligent, articulate are booted all the time. Yet, you see these same bands of shareshakers working thread to thread wherever there is a short position or possible squeeze. Instead of them being booted for the misinformation they spread, the bulls, the shareholders who defend their investment by citing the merits of the investment, are busted for being hypsters and promoters and they are played strategically by shareshakers using good cop/ bad cop scenarios, setting up the high profile bulls, complaining to Jill...they KNOW what they're doing.
Droog is insignificant to these guys, who, if they are booted, re-join under a new monicker and slam again.
