There have only been 3 third party MRIB promotions this year. You can clearly see them on my DD post from earlier. There were only 3 days of compensated promos by a third party this year as can be confirmed on the link below. I would hardly call that tons of promos! The last promo prior was last year and anyone can see that one was compensated by a third party also. I have been in tons of penny stocks that do promos all the time. I personally hate them. However no one can stop a shareholder/third party from deciding to pay out 1500 bucks to 5K to help get awareness to their stock. Just like in the past when there were a couple of MRIB promos almost ALL of them were not compensated.
