"...you have no invested interest but for some reason you are still here ? "

There are various reasons one might want to be here and not be invested. Here's some:

(Scroll down past the board posts):

~BOARD DEFINITIONS~

Bashing: is a harsh, gratuitous, prejudicial attack on a person, group or subject.

Pumping Mod: is a moderator that pumps or promotes a stock and controls information flow on a particular board.

Altruistic Basher: An individual that has a true concern for the welfare of others and attempts to keep an unknowledgeable investor away from a security by posting negative information that sheds light on the scam or the pump.

Frolic Basher: An individual that has a negative sentiment for a security and posts on a message board to play with the longs and the scammers for pure entertainment purposes only.

Defrauded Basher: An individual who realized that "their" stock was a fraud, and partly feels the need to vent, and in addition, wants to warn others not to make the same mistake.

Dualistic Basher: An individual which was long in a security but then decides to sell the stock. At this point the individual will switch his or her sentiment on a message board in an attempt to devalue the same stock with the intentions of buying back at a lower price.

(Note: many believe this is a myth.)
Paid Basher: An individual, acting on the behalf of someone else, who attempts to devalue a stock by spreading false or exaggerated claims against a public company on a message board. After the stock's price has dropped, the basher's employer will then purchase the stock at a lower price than what he or she believes it is intrinsically worth. The basher is generally paid on the basis of how many lies and negative rumors are spread, which can dramatically affect a stock's value.

Cybersleuth: is an individual who uses the resources available on the World Wide Web for research. Generally applied to someone who ferrets out information about organizations, policies and procedures from the abundance of material available on-line.

Pump and dump schemes: involving use of false or misleading statements to hype stocks, which are "dumped" on the public at inflated prices. Such schemes involve telemarketing and Internet fraud.

Chop stocks: which are stocks purchased for pennies and sold for dollars, providing both brokers and stock promoters massive profits. Brokers are often paid "under the table" undisclosed payoffs to sell such stocks.

~POSSIBLE REASONS TO BASH~

(numbers based on the survey using 'much' and 'sometimes')

39% • Post because they feel the particular security is being pumped or that they are diluting and want to save the newbie investor.
34% • Just because it is fun to mess with the scammers. (Entertainment purposes)
19% • To prove to the scammers that “I'm” smarter.

Other miscellaneous reasons:

• Short seller.
• Long that sells a security then attempts to use bashing techniques to try to get in lower.
• Were defrauded - see "Defrauded Basher" above.
• Learning experience.

There's also the playing of "Devil's Advocate" that would go in there somewhere and I'd also add "Revenge (Stalker) Basher" to that list. That is, someone who might "stalk" another trader to other boards which the offending trader might be invested in and bash there as a form of "payback" for something the offending trader did to piss the "Revenge (Stalker) Basher" off about.

Here, as a bonus, are a couple things about why people might argue (which seems to never end on iHub no matter the board):

“I respect you as a person too much to respect your ridiculous beliefs.” -Johann Hari

In his quote above, Hari suggests that challenging beliefs is an act of respect designed to straighten out the principles of the misguided. However, what we are addressing here is not so serious or benevolent. It’s about people challenging beliefs for entertainment – for fun.

Yes, arguing can lead to a dopamine release in the brain, particularly when someone feels they've won an argument or felt dominant. This is due to a neurochemical process where the brain releases adrenaline and dopamine, which can make someone feel good and dominant.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Dopamine and Reward:
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter involved in the brain's reward system, and it's released when someone experiences pleasure, excitement, or satisfaction.

Arguing as a Reward:
When someone feels they've won an argument, their brain may perceive this as a reward, leading to a release of dopamine.

Adrenaline and Fight-or-Flight:
Arguing can also activate the fight-or-flight response, leading to the release of adrenaline, which further contributes to the feeling of excitement and dominance.

Addiction to Being Right:
The feeling of winning an argument can be addictive, and people may crave the dopamine rush that comes with feeling right and dominant.

Social Connection:
Arguing can also be linked to social connection and the need for validation, which further reinforces the dopamine release.
