O.K., let me be very specific: by ending your post with the question: "Coincidence or disinformation of a kind?" you are attempting to not-so-slyly plant the seed that there may be some type of campaign by the company or some nefarious agents to conflate positive forum posts with the number of sales made. If the company is conducting this type of activity it absolutely should be uncovered and exposed. If it's not going on, then you've insinuated that 1 + 1 = 3. You have no proof of that it is either coincidence or disinformation. So I will quote from Webster's definition of innuendo: "an oblique allusion : hint, insinuation; especially : a veiled or equivocal reflection on character or reputation." Whilst there is, indeed, some information from the company regarding the number of sales made and, yes, the information regarding the number of forum posts on any given subject is there for all to see, your implication that these two facts are, somehow, linked is unadulterated and unproven speculation on your part and fits quite nicely with the definition of innuendo. Attempting to back up your point by citing conversations with some vague unnamed "number of independent adults" is unbecoming to your professed scientific nature. Please take Ralph's advice and refrain from such talk, stick to talking science, and leave the conspiracy theory innuendo for some other, more appropriate forum.
