He does not contribute anything productive to the forums or offer anyone any help or advice.
The whole point of this forum, or so I thought, was to share ideas and thoughts and engage in some fun banter, as well as help each other out with technical help.
Oh, and make fun of each other from time to time.
And no cats!

I say hack from a business owner's perspective. Uses another major company's name for free exposure (against their wishes), posts solely to promote his business and bash Jake, has an obvious troll buddy, offers no help as Jake does, and did the OP really move you to consider this guy as an indy option? What engine or customer or job is he talking to or about??

He is the type that nails signs to light poles. Free advertising. Rennlist didn't allow it, neither should Mark.

I have no *official* opinion on the statement regarding that small animal who's name shall not be mentioned as per my sealed, out of court settlement with Mark & Pelican....

Yes he is going about it in the wrong way to gain customers from this forum.

that the guy may be going about this the wrong way to some extent but I think your quote of

is only half true as Jake keeps so much of this stuff going himself and to some extents attacks or denigrates anyone whose products he deems inferior to his own...Listening to him, you would think that his company is the only company on the face of the earth, capable of rebuilding an M96. I was very interested in his products when they first came to market years ago, but after watching these kind of interactions on this and other forums for years between him and anyone that does not drink the kool-aid I have learned there are other options.
