Doug, that is my impression as well. I have seen it happen many times on the Internet threads... The game goes on.

When I see someone has started a "new or revitalized" thread I ask myself the following:

1. Was it started by someone who just happens to have more knowledge about the company than the average bear? Or was it a shareholder who bought it and just wants to exchange thoughts on it?

2. If it is a detailed accounting of the company offering a fair amount of company DD you can bet all you own it is a touter! Who has been paid by the company and has free stock (which they don't bother to disclose) and while you and others are loading up the touter and company insiders are SELLING! They will be quick to tell the sheep to hold that it is "day traders" and as soon as they are out the stock will be a winner! Sure, and the tooth fairy is real...

Cannot be too careful on the threads ALL of them are full of morally deficient scam artists with an agenda. Don't pay to let our guard down for a minute.

Paid promoters fall into the same slim pot... JMO

Doug, if you want to call it pacifiying then okay. I guess I can appreciate you demanding accountability though I don't see it making much difference. I am not in this for that much money so haven't been sweating blood the last couple years. Sure this was a classic pump and dump - but we have people who went to the mining area and talked with the drillers and found everything was for real. It's not like there was no land, no drillers, no proven resource. Bre-X and the fall of gold prices didn't help any. Why are you so against FLA trying to start another promotion - maybe it'll reach a buck and I can escape with something. I don't mean to defend FLA, they haven't done us any favors but why is FLA anymore a scam than all the other junior mining companies?
