Agreed Fatcat, I just don't want investors to sell on Greedy's paid bashing tactics. I'm not arguing for Greedy's sake but for the sake of investors and future investors, that actually might take action on his advice. I don't want them to take action on my advice either, rather their own DD coupled with their own risk tolerance. I'm sure most people on this board realize by now that good samaritans on message boards, fighting hard daily and nightly, just trying to save investors money by giving a negative slant on a stock they don't own, don't exist in reality. But I'm sure every so often, a new or existing investor might actually take heed to the paid bashers advice.

Just to make sure people understand, just because the person is a paid basher doesn't mean he might not throw out something about a company that's true. There are negatives and positives to every stock. You just have to do your DD, and weigh the pros vs. cons. It's just that Greedy doesn't seem to come up with many negative statements about the company that come attached with any proof. You have to ask yourself...are there any companies out there that you wouldn't be caught dead investing in? Now, do you feel a need to go on their message boards and tell people everyday.....aaaaalllllll day....not to buy the stock? Even if you were so inclined to do so, you would probably just go one time to put up one post and say your peace and walk away as it would be a waste of your time. You could be spending that time researching stocks, investing in them, and then backing them up by posting all the good sentiment you have about the stock on a message board. The idea of a "lone ranger" going to message boards to help retail investors is ludicrous, and I just hope nobody on this board believes one exists.
