SI recently has been having a real problem with hypsters. But what exactly is hyping? How many messages does it take for you to become a hypster? Is it hyping if he is telling people to buy a really good stock? What if you are a regular poster and want an opinion frome ach thread? Why not just copy and paste the message over and over its alot easier. This thread will be a thread for people to refer back to before they accuse someone of being a hypster and before they discipline them. Please, it is not fair for those who must have their reputation stamped as being a hypster if they really are not. Please tell your friends to visit this thread before they accuse someone of hyping or just asking for opinions. This thread will be used as a guidline about who should be considered a hypster and who should not be. Please try not to bring individual hypsters to the thread unlessm you are unsure wether he should be considered a hypster or not. We will help.
