What a lot of message board complainers at other sites miss is the fact that many of the postings they read are designed only to provoke responses, because every "click" and every reply earns money for the Web site. Here is the reason many posters don't seem to know very much at all about the companies for which they put up slanderous and/or misleading messages - it's to generate replies. Responding in any way means you've been made into a tool. For that matter the same applies even if you think just reading posts at such a site is an entirely innocent endeavor. It isn't!

This aside, here are a few updates to a story I've been covering for years now.

Some of the above is not "new" information, but it's more recently available from my searches. ...lot's more going back 3-6 years, if you care to look.
