No, they exist. They've actually existed for a long time now. Check out this post:

"There are three types of bashers here at Global Calumny Funds: Advanced, Intermediate and Beginner.

An Advanced-level basher (also known as a Silver Tongued Devil) would spread false or misleading information about the company.They would deal in facts, countering every longs post with articles, news reports and opinion surveys that gave a negative impression about the company.

An Intermediate-level basher (also known as a Serpent) would try to weasel their way into the confidence of longs and create doubt using rumor or innuendo.

Finally, a Beginner-level basher (also known as a Pitchfork) would attempt to create confusion in the room by distracting other posters with satire, name calling and pointless arguments. The idea was to make sure no serious discussion of the stock could take place. A Pitchfork was usually a basher, but not always. Sometimes, we would throw in a hypster Pitchfork such as MONEYMADE and laptop and a pumper like Datatech to create the illusion of an argument going on."

My guess you're an "intermediate" level basher, googs. Since from what I can tell, you are pretending to be bullish, but you're not really. I would put Flambeau as an "advanced" level basher since they tend to put in a lot of effort in their posts. I'm guessing the job pays well enough, otherwise why would anyone do it?
