Folks always use the word 'pumper' with a negative connotation, I personally do not think of it that way, I see pretty much everyone(paid or otherwise) Twitter, iHub, etc, etc posting about stocks as a pumpers, just some have different styles and degrees of pumping....... and trading.....not every pumper is a pure pumper and dumper type.... yes some are but not all.
Pumpers and dumpers are the ones that get folks ire but I personally see them as a necessary evil, they still generate awareness and volume and bring in some longer term traders......which is vital to OTC trading in general, big boards obviously have tons of pumpers as well........... but for the OTC it's an absolute necessity.
People buy thinly traded OTC stocks and think they will magically go up on their own, with no effort on their part, this type of thinking is not a way to success in OTC trading.....it takes teamwork, not just $$$'s. If someone does not have the time and can only contribute buy buying, thats OK..... but people that buy and let everyone else do the work and try and generate awareness, screw that.
