From the Stock Pumpers Bashers Handbook: How to recognize a Stock Basher
BASHERS DO THE FOLLOWING:
1. Be anonymous
2. Use 10% fact. 90% suggestion. The facts will hopefully lend credibility to your suggestions.
3. Pretend to let others help you learn about the stock. Build rapport and a support base before initiating your bashing routine.
4. Enter with lame humor and reply to all who reply to you.
5. Use multiple ISP's, handles and aliases.
6. Use two (2) or more aliases to simulate a discussion.
7. Do not start with an all out bash of the stock. Build to it.
8. Identify your foes (informed investors) and the boards "guru" Use them to your advantage. Ideally, you will become the board’s lead Wingnut
9. Only bash until the tide/momentum turns. Then leave and get on with your so called productive lifestyle
10. Give the appearance of being open minded... never mind, this won't work
11. Be bold in your statements. People will probably see through it though
12. Write headlines in with catchy statements... remember, at least you think you're clever
13. Pour it on as your position gains momentum. Not your personality, because you are a robot slave
14. Don't worry about being labeled a "basher". You know what you are.
15. When identified put up a brief fight, then back off. Return later, and again... and again after that.
16. Your goal is to limit the momentum of the drop. Not to make the company blast off; be consistently irritating... you are who you are
17. Kill the fears of losses, promote the company and the stock.
18. Use questions to try to create critical thinking. It's hard for you but at least try. NAME CALLING AND PROFANITY AGAINST INFORMED INVESTORS IS ENCOURAGED.
19. Tell people that you have called your doctor. They'll take your word for it that you cannot be helped.... it's chronic for you
20. Encourage people to take your word for everything... and repeat it over and over and over and... Don't stop... it's an empty life, but this is your calling
21. If the companies history/PR's are constantly positive, compile a list of all your aliases prior to beginning your efforts.
22. If the price goes up, temporarily disappear and look at yourself in the mirror. Now lick the mirror... how do feel?
23. If other posters share your thoughts, play on that and share theirs too.... over and over and over and...
24. Always cite your displeasure with the CEO
25. Three or four aliases can dominate a board... again, you are who you are
26. Bait the informed investors with personal attacks putting their focus/efforts on you and not the stock or facts. Remember, it's all about you. Try to divert their attention from facts.
27. Bash other stocks too. Go board to board to get your fill.... you're not a happy person, so make your rounds
28. Do not fall for challenges on the "values" of what you are doing... because you have no values...
...it's all a game I guess. Some play it differently than others
