I personally look for the biggest red flag which is the amount of effort they put in to "share". Not just ARs but other things on the forum. Know what I mean?
That said, these guys have a reputation to protect. How "followed" they are on the forum is how they make their dough. Think of it like a mini social media thing here.
Therefore it is in their interest that they keep their touting of duds to a minimum. They need to protect their rep here, right? That's something to keep in mind. It's not as bad as a lot of people here think, that's all.
