Fraud? Do you really think anyone looking to do fraud is going to find a lucrative opportunity to come on here and bash? Hahahahaha!

Not at all.  Its a matter of being conditioned to not be very trusting in general.

I don't understand. Who's conditioning who, how? "Not being very trusting in general" is appropriate in some circumstances, less so in others. When it comes to message boards, I give the benefit of the doubt by default on a board like this one (especially if I'm on the staff) because courtesy, and most members are sincere... if my benefit of the doubt ends up being a mistake, what's the worst that can happen here lol? I can look like an idiot, but I'm totally used to that.

Gorman it’s sad that your life experiences have led you to be that suspicious, but perhaps that was helpful in your previous employment. Please be assured nobody is being paid to post on this board, bashing or otherwise. Plus, if we let our imagination run wild enough to believe any paid bashers are here, they must be the worst paid bashers anywhere. We see all the posts and none are very impressive by that standard!

I’m conditioned to be skeptical of information which isn’t independently verifiable. e.g., unsupportable claims to know the motivations of all members of a large-ish group of people.

Just use your own sound judgement and try to verify any statements that matter to you. But, if you voice your opinion on this board ... just remember that you could be "timed out" for several days.

I've heard people say that it happened to them on proboards. Isn't that right BD

But, that's mytakeonit

My mother taught me not to be very trusting.

Sometimes even longer.

You might think you know the people you talk to on public forums, social media, etc., but unless you have gotten together with them - in person - many times, you don’t. You have to really spend time with them - in person (not once or twice for a short time) and get to know them along with their friends & family. Don’t forget, that’s the kind of things people do to establish genuine relationships, friendships and trust. Truth, if that’s not the case, you do NOT really know them. They are not even real acquaintances much less your friends. Maybe it’s fun, maybe not but whatever it is, it ‘s superficial. It doesn’t matter how long you have been around here - in reality, you have no idea who is on the other side of your supposedly, trusting conversations. Despite your grand perception and brilliance along with thinking you know so much about those you chat with on line, you really don’t. No worries - forget common sense and carry on.

Well, yes and no. No, you don't really know the member, but I think you can make an informed judgment as to whether or not they're being straight-forward w/r/t matters pertaining to MNKD (in our case here).

I guess you can't eliminate with 100% certainty that a member hasn't spent years building up trust while planning to go on some kind of disinformation campaign some time in the future to somehow influence the PPS, but c'mon. That would be an incredible waste of years of subterfuge lol. And AFAIK, it hasn't happened here in the ten+ years of the board.

Remember Matt? Super smart. Probably a CEO or high level executive. For years he was attacked here by people who assumed he was trying to brainwash us into trusting him so that he could eventually fleece us. Eventually he stopped posting which is a loss for all of us.

People attacked the aged one also. Fortunately he or she is still here.

[parrerob]

I remember very well Matt.
He did super posts with a lot of additional value

He was accused to be short on MNKD but He continued to post for around 5 years till end of 2020.....

Strange that from end of 2020 MNKD started increasing pps from 1$ till today 5$ and He stop posting just end of 2020.

IMO his partecipation to our board was very very strange....

Sometimes simple deductive reasoning and common sense will lead you to the correct conclusion.
