I think the term pumping is so overly used. I don't see very much conversation at times on this board at all, let alone the term you are using Pumping so they can Dump. In fact if waiting for the company patiently, and staying in the stock is somehow proof of "pumping" then perhaps many or most are guilty of that.
How about ones who talk highly of the stock at times while it is going up and then speak badly about it when it is retracing. Can it be said about those ones that they are "pumping" as you say so they can "dump" so that they can reload? If that is the case then hard to say on that one but post history is not hard to follow on ones in this one.
Yes it's always good to keep it real as you say. If you are positive in the stock it is counterproductive IMHO to slam it when it retraces, and call it a scam only to change your tone as it starts moving up again (unless there is an ulterior motive for doing so ie., wanting the stock to fall so the individual can reload). Seen that happen all too much on many stock boards to keep track of through the years.
At least I respect ones who keep consistent whether it be they are negative on the stock or positive. Some are wishy washy and blow with the wind (depending on the direction of the stock as it is trading).
But again, you are on free riding shares as you pointed out in another post.
This is just a general post since those points were referenced to X-Ray as if somehow he or anyone else has control of or personal knowledge of what the inner workings of the Company (baloney).
GLTA who are either on free riding shares or are being patient with shares that they are not riding at this time free on.
