You are wrong about that. No one is paid to post messages on a random message board. There are no so called "influencers" being paid to post negative messages here. With regards to this:
Honesty and integrity is ok to disregard as long as the end justifies the means
You are addressing that to the wrong person. He's not the one spouting senseless, misleading conjecture and potential. One day this will become clear to you. Good luck.
