To help you to spot a basher on a bb here are a few things to look out for:
1. Relentless by nature, always ready to step in and dumb down the discussion, they need to talk at their level;
2. Repetitive posts, bashers are commonly not very intelligent or imaginative in their work, that's because they are not very intelligent or imaginative themselves so no surprise there;
3. Dismissive of every positive perspective, however rational because allowing any positive argument to develop exposes their position;
4. Egotistical patronising style, self-value is vital for a basher when nobody else values you;
5. Offering few investing ideas in return, as that would expose them to criticism;
6. Disappearing when good news released by a company or the share price is in a strong upward move, but filling the gaps in between with negative rhetoric to hit investors at their weakest.
