Let’s start with the baseline that “bashing” is nothing more than a pejorative term used by bullish investors to describe or attack posters with contrary or negative views.
is a moderator on several boards and all he does is bash the stock
How is that any different from a user who “is a moderator on several boards and all he does is pump the stock?”
Answer: It isn’t. At all.
The rules enforced by moderators are neutral toward investment sentiment. iHub welcomes all opinions irrespective of investment sentiment as long as they are on-topic and comply with the website rules. That includes the views expressed by users who also moderate.
