I'm not even certain that there is anything wrong with paid promoters posting here. After all they could post it somewhere else and I could copy it and post it so what's the difference? There's also the point that posting a promotion does not mean it is incorrect.
I could post " Wow Incredible. CUU has 5.6 Billion LBS of Copper and 5.8 Million LBS of gold--- Amazing".
What I said is true but it's also pumping I guess (not really certain). The fact is that it's pretty hard to acuse someone of pumping (promoting) if they are truthful. Just because someone is paid to promote something does mean everything they say Later is a continuation of the promotion. For example I might be paid to promote a stock somewhere. While doing my research I might say to myself " This is pretty interesting I didn't know about this stock before. Now I know about it I think I'll go to the bullboards and see what others are saying. I think I'll buy some when the economy gives signs of improving"
To me pumping is cheerleading without any factual evidence just as bashing is cricizing without any factual evidence.
These opinions are obviously subject to being criticized by more informed posters that I.
