Hate to tell you sport, but "bashers" did NOT trash TIV's share price from $17 to a fragile 15 cents! It was years (still going on) of management ineptness in oil & gold, bad business decisions, inexperience, bloated overhead, bad investments, lack of business plan, too diversified, embellished PR's/reports/shareholder letters, behind the scenes shenanigans which appears the SEC has finally been made aware of (by ex-employees? by ex-partners?), and much other bad business stuff that caused TIV to be the joke of both oil & gold industries and consequentially a sub-20 cent bottom feedin penny stock which is on the verge of BK. Your "bashers" simply saw red flags and made investors aware of them.
Just my humble opinion and no facts asserted..LOL
