Skunksyard, highly unlikely. Think of how many people are considered bashers on this board alone. Wolf2 stated earlier that he had 72 people on ignore. There are thousands and thousands of stocks out there. Do the math. Do you think there are millions (or at least hundreds of thousands) of paid bashers out there? If fhere are, how come you don't know any personally? Where do they advertise job openings? Look at my history here. I just joined the other day, but many here would consider me a basher. How much money do you think I could make off of a maximum of 18 posts a day?
