WOW
good posts gang. Most informative, I know most of what we read can't be taken too seriously, cause there's too much disinformation spread around boards. I'll fess up dudes, I belong to more than a few boards and spend a lot of time scanning, skimming, interpreting, matching similarities and differences in language. It doesn't take very long to see thru the patterns of pump an fake and sincerity. There are so many different people here, (its pretty cool) some are here as individuals and some are here as a part of a group or team, some are from homes around the world and many are here from office buildings around the world. Some have the individual investor, day, swing traders that want to quit work or in transition to financial independence and the rest are working for the house (market and/or broker) There are many ways to catagorize and label a group of posters in order to decern truth from fact. Much of board membership is trying to figure out who to trust, and many are here doing just that, to those that are aware of this and seek to take advantage, are similar to scum sucking bottom dwelling. I don't like when worker beez try to influence individuals with various tactics. I am an "Individual" and do not represent any "company at work". But I am also a master of studying people. I have gone as far as having a family member join a board on a stock they owned just so I could see their posting and verify that was a real person on the other end. (talk about trust issues) I have seen great talk on a company, then bought just to experiment and watch that stock take a dump afterwards. I have done it scientifically a few ways to cross check. I mostly have paper traded on a calendar from certain indiviuduals on this and other MB's just to see how things worked out. Mostly I say, doing Due Diligence on stock is the way to go, but part of that Due Diligence is testing the boards on any given stock, it is part of the overall program, afterall why do these boards exist if not to add something to the research process.
