Wouldn't you think that most retail investors in Oilexco follow this board, at least periodically? I've noticed that some posts get 500 or more reads. Also retail investors tend to be nervous, always with one eye on the exit, especially when they have good gains.
I'm sticking with my belief that he is paid until I hear a more reasonable explanation.
I don't think saying he is stupid or crazy are reasonable explanations. He is clealy not stupid. And crazy? Not impossible but not likely. If you look at other boards of successfull companies, there are often similar type of characters hanging around.
