Okay, I’m done wasting my time with this. We have already lost about $600 with this fellow, not to mention the half dozen hours spent replying to his e-mails and dealing with this silly smear campaign over six forums. 

WTF?! Over 6 forums - this is an organised smear campaign for sure and shouldn’t be allowed. Why is this guy getting a platform?
 

Alex has always been courteous and generous in any dealings I’ve had as well as supplying great value products.

... It is always good to let both parts share their descriptions so we all can make our own conclusions. No member or manufacturer has been favored and no cover up.

I disagree. Allowing people to show their colors and readers to flesh out agendas.

Just saying... While I agree in general and in principle with the call for openness so that people can make up their own minds I think free speech for all is obviously a more complex issue because all things i.e. opinions are not equal in life. Not many will have the time or patience to read every detail and will probably make their minds up after the first one or 2 posts, especially if seen across multiple fora.

 

Alex and parties like him have a lot more to lose that the attacker and I think that warrants attention too. I'm not suggesting censorship is the answer even if possible - with social media now the genie is out of the box. The question is hanging in the air why exactly this concerted effort is happening across a wide spectrum of influence. I might very well be wrong but this does seem a tad fanatical.

LOL! I joined a local neighbourhood social media forum presented as good for the community etc. I lasted a week on there as it wasn't benefitting anyone...
