I think the mean spirited posts are directed at the radical posts by the longs.. it's become a game. I can guarantee you that most of the "bashers" (TSX, JS, Bishop, etc) get no satisfaction from the longs losing out. There are radicals on both sides that have instigated each other to the point of hatred. Oddly, I also believe that if all the parties involved on this chatboard would sit down, have a beer and get to know the real person, sentiment regarding one another would be different.
This board could, and has been worse, in the past, but until the hearing is over, everyone seems to be taking a last desperate kick at each other.
There have been some valid posts that were snuck in here and there.
