Pitchfork sounds like a couple ppl that post here too that are "longs" but spend their day arguing relentlessly with the bashers...driving down all of the good posts and repeating the bashers taglines over and over again...this is not a scam...this won't go bankrupt...this won't be suspended. Anyone new coming to the board only sees the red flags (Scam, bankruptcy, suspended).

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.
