Yesterday's Hero

Hi,
Well, today is the day that we get to see if Weekly Gold is down and out.
Though, that's not the point of the post...
It's been amazing to watch in the HYIP world how the Hero of yesterday becomes the villian of today so quickly. Not so much in reality but in the posts one sees on various boards.
There just doesn't seem to be much ground in between for most program owners. On Friday they can be being praised as being wonderful and the answer to everyone's HYIP woes. On Saturday they miss a payment and by Sunday they are the vilest scum and obvious SCAMmer... even if it might just be that their Grandma died (of course, in that case, they are then the best again when they payout a week later).
Now, I'm not saying this is the case in point with Mario and Weekly Gold (in fact, I'm not all that confident about seeing those funds again) but there really is no middle ground for these people. You see it again and again when a payment is missed even when it was just a glitch.
Of course, there are always those that protect the program being attacked... but they are often as fatuous as those that scream "SCAM" at the drop of a hat.
It's kind of crazy in its own way... and just a little bit sad (as in pathetic).
That's it... no questions... just an observation... I'll pack up my soap box now... thanks for listening.

It`s the nature of the beast.
HYIP`s = Risk (Often VERY high.)
It can often be a here today, gone tomorrow business. Often Admin consists of literally just one person. If he/she is ill, say, then what happens to the program?
I just think that sometimes Admins can help themselves more by communicating properly with it`s members. On the other hand of course, one saying that doesn`t apply is `Silence is Golden.`
