Coppertop,

"in terms of perceptions and these being realities (or not), can one deny that any reader on HC could perceive and perceive correctly (according to them), that a poster who posts continually merely “for the benefit of others and out of the goodness of their heart” and who doesn't own LYC or any stock we may happen to be discussing therefore has an agenda? Agenda in the strictest sense. i.e. to achieve their own ends."

I have a much more tolerant view of "no stock held" posts. There is no reason why those that do not hold stock can't post usefull information and I suggest that a lot do. Dont let a few bad apples spoil the rest.

Indeed there are plenty of "stock held" posts that are utter rubbish and designed to do just what you accuse the "no stock held" posters of doing. Indeed are all the "stock held" declarations honest anyway.
