Quoted from Otaku:Okay, enough delaying, I'm out of here but wanted to touch on a few more issues since I had the time. I'll catch you guys at the pinball shows and see you when we're open. No matter what anybody says, I'm going to continue on with not only my business as a whole but also my current fundraising plans, as they're in good faith and will have a great impact on our start-up thanks to the kindness of those who believe in us.
Hopefully eventually people will see everything I do is in good measure and with a genuine love of the game we share, and that this constant hounding and trolling you guys called "advice" is actually doing the complete opposite and is quite a nuisance and is what caused me to slip up in the past. Aside from a few users, your "advice" is terrible and often filled with insults and offensive remarks based on internal anger over the state of the world and how popular fundraising has become, when in reality it's just the way of the world and you're going to have to learn to live with it, whether or not you think it is morally correct or not, as after all "morals" are all just opinions and are very subjective and differs with age and personality. (There are people who straight up fund vacations on these sites, so I think I'm doing okay.)
There has been a large amount of rumors and controversy surrounding myself straight from when I started that fundraiser YEARS AGO to help solve a small problem in my basement. It's really not all that important and I'm humbled about how such little things have taken up so much space on Robin's servers. It's crazy how much that has blown up and how many things have spawned that are just straight up lies, and it's unfortunate the these sites continue to harbor such lies. I'm a pretty average guy with a great heart. I encourage friends, enemies, and those skeptical of me to stop by our booths at upcoming shows and learn what we're all about, shake my hand and actually have a conversation with me, learn why we're fundraising, and what is in store for the future. I can't change the Pinside bandwagon that has been running strong against me for years (I think it's insecurity about being told advanced tech tips by a much younger guy), but I'd be happy to meet you at a show and help form a better, less generalized opinion about my brand for anybody who is interested. Trying to stunt others' success is really lame and it really makes a lot of you come off as the guys screaming on their laws for the kids to get off of it, and a lot of people and ex-Pinsiders have come up to me in person and shared the same sentiments. Get a grip on yourselves, if you don't like me or my dreams at least stop wasting your time replying to threads like this, I'm embarrassed for you.
Anyways, catch ya at the show and see you at the Gameseum!
So, it’s KLOV. And it’s Pinside. And it’s old guys. But it’s never you
General rule of thumb—when people keep responding to you the same way, it’s you and your behavior. You’re rude and sanctimonious, and when you get called on it, you come up with your wacky generational conspiracy that you think explains other people’s behavior while inflating your own meager experience and expertise
And everywhere you go you beg.
Yep, it’s you.
