I am wondering what the board's take is regarding paid stock promoters.

Should a person posting on a forum that is being paid to do so disclose this information?

Is it a fair question to be able to ask a poster or would this be considered crossing the line or off limits (ie: considered attacking another poster)?

In this day and age, stock forums can be a good starting point for DD. If someone is hired to promote - should that at least be disclosed so people could take that into consideration?

If this post is crossing any lines even bringing the topic up, please delete it.
