My friend, you have hit upon the real question in this case. What IS their motive? I can only think of three: 1) They lost $ on the stock and can't get over it; 2) They are actually paid to do what they do (A reality of the economics of MMs is that they will make more money on the way down than on the way up; or 3) They simply like the rush that they get from antagonizing others meaninglessly. To me, the bottom line is that they are a total waste of skin and do the thread no good whatsoever. Your opinion?

PLEASE READ----ABOUT THE BASHERS AND THEIR GAMES------ Many people are getting upset that some, especially the new people are responding to the slimeball bashers. What I believe because I have seen in the past that some and just some of the people responding are bashers themselves. I'm not naming and names of course, but, I saw this type action before and would bet my allowance that this is how they work. I run/operate many chat and posting websites, I track the IP address of the trouble-makers only to reveal that they have many aliases. Many times I found that the ones who respond are bashers themselves. Your saying; "huh"?? It (bashers) want to take up much of the thread for themselves, if it seems that some of the concerned shareholders of a stock are responding and quite harshly it is because they help create this illusion. Like I said I have seen this before many times. Bottom Line: Do not waist the threads time or your time asking and pleading for some of the supposed shareholders not to respond. Because; IT WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE SOME OF THEM ARE IN ON IT!! They have no lives no family no friends, they were hurt in the past and looking for redemption and this is how they get it. THINK ABOUT IT: Who in their right mind would spend day after day night after night posting and bashing stocks that apparently they do not own?? They create the stage for all who want to listen. We know who the REAL shareholders are. LionHeart

Djeff: <<<it is still difficult for me to understand why people without a stake in a particular stock would waste so much time trying to bash it.>>> Answers: 1. They are shorting the stock. 2. They are paid by others who are SERIOUSLY into #1. 3. Legal Beast says they are psychotic. I beg to differ( legal, we always seem to disagree; either it's the lyrics to a jingle or diagnosing pathology---geeez ); they suffer from character disorders which are more difficult to detect and almost always impossible to treat. Psychotics respond to drug therapy; thread lice, err, I mean those with character disorders don't. You see, THEY are the disorder. Most compelling thing in all this is the unfortunate way in which some of our fellow investors fall for the bait and just get reeled in. But it also tells you the depths of #1's problem come Monday and the days following. Nuff said. We should all be following the wise counsel of Blitz and Citidude, Tod and the rest. But, man, I sure know where Turboe and F. Gump are coming from. Step away and let it go.
