David Laird and now Andrew Kearnan!
Something big is brewing to be attracting such high calibre directors to the board!
Certainly not what one would generally see EVER happening with a company in strife like downpamper

Posting 20,000 negative messages about a company on a stock market forum over four years is indeed excessive and raises questions about the motives behind such behavior. Continually posting an overwhelmingly large number of negative messages suggests an obsessive focus or agenda.
There could be several reasons why someone would engage in such behavior:
1.The user may have a financial interest in seeing the company's stock price decline. By spreading negative sentiment, they could be attempting to manipulate the market to profit from short-selling or other trading strategies.
2.Personal bias or vendetta:The user may have had a negative personal experience with the company or its management team, leading them to harbor resentment or animosity. As a result, they continually seek to discredit the company as a form of retribution or validation for their grievances.
3.Attention-seeking or validation: Some individuals thrive on attention and validation from online communities. By constantly posting negative messages, they may seek validation from others who share similar views or engage in arguments and debates to satisfy their need for attention.
4.Confirmation bias:The user may have formed a negative opinion about the company and selectively seeks out information that confirms their pre-existing beliefs. This confirmation bias leads them to interpret news or events in a negative light and perpetuate their negative narrative.
Regardless of the underlying motive, engaging in such excessive and one-sided behavior can be detrimental to the integrity of the forum and mislead other investors. It's essential for forum users to approach discussions with a critical and balanced perspective, considering diverse viewpoints and conducting thorough research before forming conclusions about a company.
